Truly sensational

This was an amazing place for a family vacation. The property had everything we could possibly want for comfort and convenience, as well as access to equipment for fun on the lake. It was the perfect way to spend a gorgeous week in October.

Great Main getaway

Traveled to Maine with large family to visit oldest son and wife. Stayed at this property as we wanted not only a base to visit surrounding Maine but also a place to relax and enjoy some lake activities. This place didn’t disappoint. Great location on Jordan Bay of Lake Sebego. Lots of kayaks, paddle boards, and a canoe such that the whole family could get out on the water. Good fishing as well. Check in/out went smoothly and the place was very clean and nice upon our arrival. Family had a great time!

Amazing Lake House

Beautiful lakeside home. Gives a true mountain home feel. Very well maintained and kept. Modern appliances, 2 full baths with nice shower. The Chalet style just makes it so cozy and welcoming. Two gas fire places enhance the atmosphere. Everything worked as expected. I wish we could plan our family vacation in July August so we could get into the water and enjoy even more. You can't go wrong with this one!

We had a wonderful week with family on Sebago Lake. The house is in a gorgeous spot, close to local stores and restaurants. The views from the house are beautiful. The house is well stocked, especially the kitchen and water toys (koala, floats, water toys). The outdoor fire pit was perfect and they had wood and kindling. The beds were comfy and having a downstairs family room was a plus. Our hosts were super easy to communicate with as well. We made lots of memories in Maine this summer!

Absolutely perfect! We had such an incredible time with our family here this past week. The house was as listed. Fully stocked and equipped with everything, as if you were at home. The amount of water equipment that was readily accessible to use was a super plus! Our host Steve and Desni were magnificent. They were very prompt in responding when needed. Their home is very well loved and cared for. We hope to return in the near future. Thanks a bunch Steve and Desni. We’ve made some great memories with our family in Raymond, Maine.

Beautiful Stay!

Beautiful clean house right on Jordan Bay, Sebago Lake. Wonderful spot to get on the lake for some ice fishing! Would love to come back. Four stars overall only because neither of the two fire places worked and one of the entrance doors was broken upon arrival.

Great place!

We had a wonderful time. Great location, house was great, plenty of kayaks and paddle boards. Great outside spaces. Our one minor complaint would be the sectional sofa on the main floor - well worn so it sinks down and is not very comfortable and hard to get out of for us older folks! Beds very comfortable, beautiful bathrooms, very clean.

Fantastic stay

This is the second time we have stayed at this property. It was just as great at the first, the house is roomy for 9 people. Our teens loved the loft with their "own" space. The views of the lake are great and the house feels isolated but is close to everything that makes running out nice and easy. The house has a nice dock and large swim area. The kayaks and paddle boards they have are great! The swim area is a little rocky, like most places on Sebago but swim shoes fixed that. We rented a boat and really enjoyed our time there.

The house is beautifully sited on the Jordan Bay/Sebago Lake. It is well stocked for water sports with a functional dock and swim platform and a good variety of kayaks and paddle boards. The house was very clean on our arrival and well stocked with the indoor necessities and outdoor furniture.

Sensational is right!

This house was perfect for our family vacation. We loved the open floor plan and the large windows overlooking the lake. The deck and dock are perfect for a morning coffee. The rooms are clean and spacious and there is plenty of parking. It was so nice to have a local marina, ice cream shop, grocery store and seafood shack all within a five minute drive but yet have the serenity and peace when at the house. Although we could see neighbors, there is a feeling of privacy while on the deck and in the yard. Steve and Desni were extremely gracious hosts and did everything they could to make our stay exceptional. You won't be disappointed!
