Vacationland living up to its name

10/10 This property was just perfect. We travel to Maine annually and loved the proximity to the lake (just out the back door) and to town (approx 10 minutes) The owner was extremely responsive and the property lived up to the pictures, etc. A week here was extremely relaxing (even with 3 kids in tow!)

Serene location

We enjoyed this cozy and yet roomy house and the care that went into building and maintaining it, and loved exploring the lake. Hosts were very friendly and accessible as needed.

Great week in Maine!

We had a beautiful, relaxing week at a wonderful cabin. The boys loved fishing out of the boat and swimming off the dock! We loved disconnecting at a fabulous cabin! Derek made sure everything went smoothly and was a pleasure to deal with!

Wonderful stay in Denmark ME

Our family had a wonderful time at this home in Denmark. The kids enjoyed swimming and exploring the pond. This place was peaceful and quiet - the perfect alternative to renting on one of the bigger, crowded lakes.

One with Nature

Secluded, quiet, peaceful. Everything was cozy and comfortable. The cry of the loon, whippoorwills, bullfrog gulps, jumping fish, diving Herron, and a bathing fawn were the sights and sounds all week. The view is picturesque, especially at sunset and in the morning calm. The bonus is that this pond is unpopulated and serene. The property is excellent and the host is very helpful and responsive. I’ll be back for sure!

Quiet and relaxing!

The property was so nice and relaxing, just what we were looking for! My husband and son loved the fishing, we all loved the dock and the swimming. We brought paddle boards and was able to enjoy just being out on the quiet, calm water away from everyone. We were close enough to spend a day at the White Mountains hiking, and another day in Portland shopping, and eating. This cabin is the perfect place to go if you want to relax, and enjoy time with your loved ones. We can't wait to go back! Thank you!

Wonderful home on beautiful isolated pond.

We really enjoyed our stay at Woodhaven. The cabin is delightful with amazing views of the pond. We were working remotely, but it really felt like we were on vacation for two weeks. We went for walks, bike rides, and I swam in the pond everyday. The water was very warm! There was even a loon that was often on the pond in the afternoon/evening and whose cries we could hear regularly. Frank was a wonderful host, he lives nearby and helped us out with everything we asked for. We are hoping to go back next year!

Peaceful setting

Derek was a very thoughtful host. He was timely and thorough responding to my inquiries. The property precisely matched the description on VRBO. The house is immaculate and I was especially impressed with the well appointed kitchen. The WiFi worked great. The view from the deck and access to the pond was such a bonus. We appreciated the peacefulness of no boat motors. We caught and released large bass. The floating dock made it fun to swim in the warm water. Every night we sat on the deck and watched the stars. The location was conveniently located, approximately 15-20 minutes to the supermarket, great restaurants and homemade ice cream. Denmark is within a 60 minute drive to the ocean or the White Mountains.We will definitely be back. Thank you Derek!

A beautiful place

My family of 3 stayed here for a week and it was magical. Our toddler spent most of his time playing in the water (the pond is not mucky but has beautiful sand so you don't even need water shoes) and loved going in the row boat for a few rides around the pond. It really is a perfect place to stay if you have children. The property is so peaceful and quiet; we really enjoyed being surrounded by nature. We especially loved seeing/hearing a loon the first night we stayed. The kitchen has everything you need to cook meals, and we also loved eating at the little dining nook together. We barely ever wanted to leave the property, but we went into Bridgton a few times for coffee/lunch/ice cream, and Naples as well (both beautiful little towns about 15 mins away). Derek was always very helpful and available via text. We loved this place so much and hope to return!

Such a gem!

We feel so fortunate to have found this place! This lake-front, simple and secluded cabin was just what we were looking for and perfect for our family. The lake is clean and quiet, not overpopulated, and the gradual entry was perfect for our young kids. We spent hours swimming and fishing, and exploring the corners of the lake with the row boat. Also, we were surprised how much the surrounding area had to offer as far as restaurants, family activities, and fun experiences. We even took a day trip to the coast. The host/owner said the terms and conditions are listed for guests to see prior to arrival, but we couldn't find them on vrbo or in the confirmation emails. It isn't a big deal, but fyi, guests are responsible for all consumables...bring your own toilet paper, dish soap, hand soap, paper towels, etc. plus sheets and hand towels. There is a cute general store about 5 min away that has just about anything you might forget. The host was very communicative and supportive throughout the week and graciously answered any questions we had. We could definitely see ourselves returning here!

Perfect Family Getaway

I stayed at this property with my husband and five year old daughter and we had the most wonderful stay. The accommodations are both cozy and beautiful. Lots of cool architectural features and ample windows which really bring the outside in. My husband enjoyed using the row boat and went fishing at sunrise each morning and found success catching some bass. My daughter would have stayed in the water the entire week and nearly did! The water was beautiful, clean, and not too cold. She especially loved swimming out to the raft. There are also two great seating areas outside where I particularly enjoyed relaxing with a book and enjoying the view. Derek was very responsive to any questions we had and check in and out was very smooth and easy. This cottage feels out of time and we passed a week quickly by. The cute town of Bridgton is only 15 minutes away for anything you may have forgotten from home but we barely ventured off the property, not wanting to leave our little lake house bubble. We hope to stay again and I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a cozy retreat!

A Slice of Peace on the Lake

This amazing A-frame with charming personality sits on a quiet lake. The views are unparalleled - the sun rising over the trees, the mist rising off the waters on a cool morning, and a reliable dose of local wildlife complete an idyllic setting. For the kids, an afternoon of fun climbing and jumping off the dock is just the thing for a peaceful night. The lake has plenty to offer the avid fishing or kayaking enthusiast as well - these clear calm waters offer many little inlets to paddle about. The house itself has all the comforts of a modern home, and all the uniquely rustic charm of a Maine camp. Do you have a book you've been looking forward to reading? Make sure you bring it to enjoy in the swinging egg chair. The outdoor seating options are equally delightful - a lovely couch in the sun to watch the lake (keep an eye out for the occasional eagle!) Or, a lovely post-modern set of chairs tucked in the shade to enjoy a glass of tea. The grounds are dappled with native berry clusters, ferns, flowers, and pines. Whether you're looking for a quiet place to relax and rejuvenate, or a good jumping point for some serious hiking or biking, this property has it all. The owner, Derek, is prompt, communicative, and helpful. A fabulous stay I'd recommend to anyone.

Really quiet, really dark

This is an excellent house/camp on one of the smaller, very swimmable ponds. No jet skis, no motor boats, just a very few kayaks. Brought a pal for the first few days, then stayed solo for the rest of the week. It’s very quiet, and at night, it is wonderfully dark. I heard (but did not see) Common Loons. The pond is a bit small for them. There were at least 4 nearby at Walden/Sand Pond. Barred Owls were in the trees every night, abundant various warblers and BCChickadees filled the trees/shrubs in the mornings. One Belted Kingfisher spent long periods on a branch right at the lower deck. If you leave the many screened windows open, you’ll hear nature at night. I was able to rent a kayak for the week, which was awesome to have handy at water’s edge and to accompany a pal who swam the full perimeter of the pond (about 1-25 miles). Loved the outdoor seating area, where I/we spent most of our time from the sunrises around 5:30 to the sunsets around 7:30. If you opt to bring linens/towels, be sure to bring blankets. This camp is ideal for a single, a couple, 2 or three adult friends who like to read, build puzzles, play cards, or a small family that likes the be in the water. Note that while the house is not at all rustic, it lacks the bells and whistles of some of the newer houses on the larger ponds (i.e., dishwasher, W/D, chef’s kitchen, extended dock). It was just perfect for me this trip. My only wished-for amenity was an outdoor shower—the pond more than made up for that!

Wonderful Vacation

We had a wonderful vacation on the lake. The house was clean and comfortable. Derek was responsive and very easy to communicate with. We took day trips to Windham & North Conway and went into Bridgton for some ice cream. The lake was so calm and peaceful. You could go days without seeing or hearing anyone. It was a great family vacation.

Beautiful cabin and location

The cabin is great and location is very private. Very quiet, located on a beautiful pond. The location is very convenient and somewhat close to many attractions in the area. One thing to note - throughout the stay trash needs to be disposed at the town station, and directions to the address might be confusing since Google maps and Apple Maps point to completely different locations and both are wrong :). To get to the trash collection - turn right when exiting the driveway and drive 2.4 miles, the station is on the left.

Best vacation in a long time.

Beautiful cabin with beach. Very private. Great place to get away from it all but yet close to area villages for some great Maine food and close enough to the coast to take in the sites. Great fishing. Would recommend it to anyone.

Cute cabin great location

This property is as advertised: on the rustic side but clean and comfortable. The pond is so serene - it was a joy to wake up to and enjoy while sipping my coffee. There are fans in all rooms which kept things comfortable in the evenings.

Family getaway

This was our first family trip with our daughter and we had a great time. The beach area allowed our 18month old to explore the water and experience a maine camp without the rocky entry. We are from maine and believe that a cabin on a lake that has this little development is rare for the more accessible parts of the state. It was very quite and provided a sense of vacation even though we were 1.5 hours from home. The cabin was clean and comfortable. This is a great place to bring a family and was a surprisingly great bass fishery as well. With countless fish taken in the 2-4.5lb range on poppers on the fly rod. Thanks again Frank. -the Dences

Quiet property for quality family time

We loved that we could walk out our door right into the lake. Beautiful views. It’s the first time our family has ever had a lake to ourselves. The neighboring town, Bridgton, has an amazing park with free obstacle courses that the kids visited multiple times. Hiking and state parks are close with the White Mountains. Finally, the owner, Frank was great with communication.

Quiet Respite

After many long months of overtime as an essential worker, Woodhaven offered the respite I needed from the stress of my job. I rowed out to a secluded cove each morning to sip coffee, read a book and relax to the sound of geese, ducks and the very distinctive Loon! The quiet of the lake was restorative, and the view tranquil. WIFI is excellent and Frank and Shirley are delightful hosts. Woodhaven was exactly as I had hoped it would be!
