Great 80th birthday celebration!
We celebrated the 80th birthday of a family member and couldn’t have picked a better place to bring the family together. The home is very comfortable and you can’t beat the setting! We will definitely be back!

Perfect Friends Reunion!
Beautiful cottage with amazing views and in a great location. Our childhood friend just retired to Swanville, and we got to stay 5 minutes away from her. There was plenty of room for all of us to sleep, and the a/c worked great in the downstairs and the master bedroom. Luckily we brought fans because the weather was hot for September, and we read in another review that there were no ceiling fans. Lake water was clean and refreshing. Kayaking was great! Fire pit is a great amenity. Loons were magical, and we also enjoyed the daily visits from the hummingbirds. Enjoyed Belfast, and had great dinners at the Nautilus, the Front Street Pub, and Darby’s (don’t miss the baked Jarlsburg)! Thank you, Andrea, for the perfect spot! Can’t wait to return!

Beautiful relaxing stay
We couldn't have asked for a more perfect spot for a long weekend to rest and relax. The house had everything we needed. Everyday was a treat seeing (and hearing) loons, and even a couple of bald eagles. We will certainly return.

Relaxing weekend with friends
House was great and very comfortable, SO many amenities. Stunning views. Easy access to grocery stores nearby. Crowded lake with ample sound from the road across the lake and many motorized vehicles on the lake. We very much enjoyed the kayaks and canoe, and the loons!

Wonderful!
Brought family with 3 adults and children 6yr and 9yrs.Perfect for small kids to wade in water. Didn’t catch fish but caught crayfish. Kayaks and canoe in great shape and everyone had a great time. There is a German Shepherd next-door that is playful, but might runoff with your stuff or tear it up. Little ones need to be cautioned not to try and get it back from him. Otherwise, he is good with kids. The home was very well stocked. Air conditioning in one bedroom upstairs. No ceiling fans in bedrooms. Beds and furniture are comfortable. Grill worked good. Plenty of cooking and baking ware. Even big dispenser for water. Ice trays were filled. Just need to bring your own soap and shampoo items. Our dogs did well in the basement or out on a leash. The house is on the shady side of the lake. The other side has a main thru road with traffic noise, so we were happy with that. Overall a great choice rent.

Happy Place
This was our second time we stayed at Andrea’s in Swanville. We have rented several homes over the years but this one is our absolute favorite. It’s quiet and relaxing at the lake house house with plenty of indoor and outdoor activities but also a short distance to Belfast for shopping and great restaurants. Andrea was an excellent host who went out of her way to help schedule our stay this year and was always available for questions. The memories we had here will last a lifetime!

Great location and property on the water! Really appreciated pet friendly, ability to make meals and swimming/fire pit. One suggestion, larger beds.
