This is one of our favorite places anywhere. The house was perfect for us. It is so clean and well equipped. We love the lake and really enjoyed the kayaks and fire pit.

Great!

This house is located on an excellent part of Lake Arrowhead. It has a sandy swimming area which is hard to find on this lake. The yard was big with a fire pit and bbq area. The house was neat & tidy and had everything we needed. We really enjoyed our stay.

Great place

We stayed the week and it was almost perfect. The house was clean and well appointed (make sure you pack your own salt/pepper/spices) and very clean.One disappointing item was that the kayaks were in rough shape. Three had been made homes for rodents and two had a strange, black, tarry substance coating the insides.

Ryan, Thank you for your review. I appreciate your comments with the kayaks. I wish you contacted us so that I could send my husband to clean them. It was our first rental of the season and we must have missed it. We apologize for your inconvenience. Peg

Serene and lovely

We typically have limited expectations when renting a vacation home because photos just can't show the whole place very well. We were late making our vacation plans this year, and a lot of what we thought were the best properties were all rented out for the summer. Anyway, this place turned out to be almost perfect for what we wanted - on a lake, not too far north so friends and family from Massachusetts could come visit, quiet, and a place we could bring our sweet dog. This had it all, and the weather was great, too. The only negative was the narrow stairs to the waterfront - we have a daughter who has a physical disability, who can walk with assisting devices, but those stairs were tough for her. The house is very clean, well stocked with what you need, and comfortable. We are already considering a return next year.

Sandy, We enjoyed having you and your family. It would be a pleasure to have you return to the lake house. My husband and I are planning on adding railings to the steep stairs. Thank you for your recommendation. Peg

Wonderful stay!

The house and property were perfect for our stay. We really enjoyed spending time on, in, and by the beautiful lake, making use of the kayaks, fire pit, and space to play outside. On our rainy day, we got cozy with art work and puzzles inside. The house was clean and well stocked, and perfect set up for 2 families (2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom on each floor). We hope to return next year! Many thanks to Peg for this gift of a vacation.

Lakeside Getaway

The property sits directly on Lake Arrowhead in a rural part of Southern Maine. The lake is clean and quite large. It is known as one of Maine’s best bass fishing lakes. Younger folks can have fun fishing, swimming or using the paddle board and 4 kayaks that are included with the rental. The private dock and the swimming area is perfect for young children as it has a gentle slope into the sandy swimming area. If you plan on preparing culinary masterpieces you will find the kitchen lacking but if you’re all about burgers, etc then you will be in good shape. The WiFi is good and the 4 bedrooms make hosting family very workable. Our 4 grandsons spent the entire week in or on the water.

Great stay!

We had a wonderful time and really enjoyed our stay. We especially loved the kayaks and paddle board included with the property. Exploring Lake Arrowhead was so much fun. The lake water is clean and the little sandy area was much appreciated by the youngest in our group. Beds were comfortable, fans provided for hot evenings, all of the amenities you need. The house was very tidy upon our arrival, and we were very comfortable. We saw an eagle, pileated woodpeckers, hummingbirds, chipmunks, turtles, a great blue heron and more. The property feels like part of nature and that really won us over. We had such a great time!

Comfortable and serene

There were 7 adults in our party ranging in age from 50-85!!! We found ALL the comforts of home. Peg has forgotten nothing in her effort to make your stay enjoyable, comfortable beds, soft linens and even the bug spray, sunscreen and logs for the fire( which we replaced). It was so peaceful and so quiet by the lake, very few motor boats. The lake has a nice sandy bottom and levels off gradually so it's easy access. The only "minor" problem we had was the stair to the beach/firepit area. It is steep but doable. A railing would help but otherwise this is the perfect little getaway from it all.

Very nice, well maintained house

The house was clean, comfortable and well maintained. The inclusion of a tv and wi-fi were appreciated. The kitchen was short on cooking supplies. There were not enough knives, and cooking utensils. The beds were comfortable and thee were plenty of towels and bedding. Bath rooms were clean and well stocked with towels. We enjoyed the lakeside area with its fire pit, and enjoyed the kyacks. Our only objection to the property was the limited view of the lake, but we appreciate that removal of trees is not allowed.
