The basement level dorm on the slope down to the lake has two sets of bunk beds, and a sofa bed that sleeps 2. The house can sleep altogether, seven couples and five singles. The large living room has a beautiful stone fireplace with a couch and several comfortable chairs. In that space, there is a dining area that seats up to 12 people.

At the wooden dock side, there is a pontoon boat with seating for 11 for socializing. (Operation not included unless with special arrangements.) At the lake shore, there is a small beach with a typical Maine rocky area. The house is also equipped with six lawn chairs, two outdoor grills, some child floats and assorted toys. Parking is available for five cars with special arrangements for more. The house has a nice outside flower garden with hanging planters in the front. Whittemore Cove is a quiet enclave. Walkers can circle from the end of Whittemore Cove Road to the end of a parallel private road that also joins Raymond Cape Road--a 45 minute walk. The ferry to Frye Island is near the Whittemore Cove Road turn off. Swimmers can swim about 75 yards to a rock used for sunbathing and diving.

Wonderful Stay
The house was very comfortable and homey. It was easy for our family of 6 adults, and 4 kids to feel at home, relax, and enjoy hanging out. Communication with host was great. The house had everything we needed and we really enjoyed the water, lounging in the pontoon boat and swimming/boating/paddle boarding off the dock. We had a blast!

Great location for a group stay!
My friends and I stayed here for a long 4th of July weekend. We were a group of 5 couples and one child. The house was large enough to not feel cramped with 10 adults, ample seating and comfortable sleeping arrangements. The swimming area was great. Although rocky, the dock and boat provided plenty of room for lounging in the sun out of the water. Sarah and William were great at communicating and very helpful answering questions before our arrival.

Family Fun!
We had plenty of space for our group of 13. Cabin had everything we needed for cooking, including a pot big enough for lobsters. The property is beautiful. We spent a lot of time on the dock watching the water and fishing. Neighbors were super friendly and helpful and made the stay even more enjoyable. Owners were easy to get a hold of and responsive. The house has a nice lived in feel and you can tell it is cared for, unlike others places we've stayed that felt cold and impersonal. Rented the pontoon boat for a day, while the weather wasnt great it was nice to get out on the lake and the boat ran great.
