One of the most highly reviewed cottages on Long Pond. 25ft from lake shore!

Big screen deck just 25 feet from Long Pond, one of the cleanest and most beautiful lakes in central Maine. Private cottage with your own private dock and swim float. NOT part of a resort or former resort. End of road privacy, no through traffic. Located at the end of a long and undeveloped Maine gravel road. Our cottage is perfect for kayaking, swimming, lake relaxing and dog walking in peace and quiet! We are located on the south portion of this famous lake, and you can take in one of the nicest views on the lake from our large enclosed screen porch just 25 feet from the shore. This cottage features a master bedroom with attached half-bath, and a lakeside bedroom with a king bed that can be converted to two twin beds. We are full time professional hosts who source, build, own, design and create every inch of our properties to create a unique and comfortable stay for our guests. No dealing with "managers" and owners who don't take rentals seriously and don't respond to messages or concerns. We allow most breeds of dogs for a modest fee. This cottage offers all the privacy and amenities you are looking for in a vacation rental. Ideal for a couple or small family looking for a relaxing retreat to kayak, fish or boat. We offer a tastefully appointed cottage with WiFi, swim platform, and your own dock. There are many miles of quiet tranquil roads to walk your pet or jog without driving anywhere. It is very "off the grid". Long Pond is six and 1/2 miles long and offers nearly 3,000 acres of beautiful Maine waters with islands, pines, loons and bald eagles. More than enough for a great week of kayaking, boating or whatever your summer interests are. Long Pond is a deep, clear lake and great for swimming and fishing. Of all the Belgrade Lakes, Long Pond is the least developed and most pristine. Drive or go by boat to the town of Belgrade Lakes for dinner or ice cream. A classic summer vacation area, Long Pond and the Belgrade Lakes area are sure to please. Approximately 3 hours from Boston.

Best Cabin in Maine!
We are a retired couple in our early 70's and have stayed at this cabin every year for the last 12 years. You can't beat the remote location and wonderful view. The cabin is straight out of an LL Bean ad, and about as close to the water as you can get. We normally come in spring and fall to kayak and enjoy the view from the awesome screen deck. Scott is a great host and always responds immediately.

So peaceful, quiet, serene. Beautiful spot. Gas stove not working, screen door needs fixing, could use new sheets and new kitchen sink stopper.

Sunrise Dock
The house and property were great for our family of five with three young kids. There is another house next door but you still feel secluded. The house was well appointed with all the amenities. The lake was clear and warm by our standards and swimming was a delight. We paddle-boarded across to the small inhabited island for fun. We could have had a rental motor boat delivered right to the dock but opted for paddles. Best of all, the dock is perfectly situated to catch early morning sunrises.

The cottage is very cozy and enough room for a family of five. Kids had fun fishing and swimming off the dock. View of Long Pond from porch is amazing. Great place for family memories.

Maine Getaway
We had a wonderful week. The cabin is centrally located for day trips and yet remote and peaceful. The screened in porch was perfect for morning coffee. We'd be happy to stay again.

Peace and quiet
The cabin was like something out of an LL Bean Catalog. So many decorative things to look at. So comfortable, clean and cozy. Sitting on the beautuful porch, listening to the loons, will lower your blood pressure for sure. Hopefully will get the chance to rent again. Was sad to leave.

Great cottage
Loved the lake cottage, roomy but cozy with the small gas Franklin stove, we were there in October so it was a nice addition for the evenings. We would definitely come back!

Lakeside and October foliage
The cabin is on a beautiful pond. We stayed in October so the leaves were changing. The color was amazing! We had a few rainstorms and the skylight over the bed enhanced the experience. We were so cozy.

Maine stay
Amazing area, cute & comfortable cabin. It would be perfect in the summer. Unfortunately in the fall businesses that rent kayaks were closed. Unless you are able to bring your own fishing gear or other lake toys (we couldn’t because we flew) it would be difficult to fully enjoy the lake. Overall though we would definitely recommend this camp.

Great Relaxing Lake Vacation
Great cottage and outdoor fire pit. Great dock. Cottage had everything we needed. We appreciated the dryer for drying wet dog towels. King bedroom was very comfortable. Spent almost all day on the dock reading or watching birds. Got some great loon and heron pics. Husband spinner and fly fished from dock and took his canoe out as well. Fishing wasn’t great due to time of year but he still enjoyed it. Visited Belgrade for supplies (Day’s) and dinners out (The Village Inn). Dogs loved swimming but neither would jump from the dock. Slope from property to lake was a bit steep for the old dog. Hiked (short with very slight elevation gain) up French Mountain. Also had great view from Blueberry Hill (drive up). Was so sad to leave. Actually teared up. Would love to spend the entire summer there. Highly recommend.
