About this property
NICEST LAKEHOUSE IN MAINE -- PRIVATE BEACH -- LUXURY!
- Crescent Lake is situated in the beautiful Sebago Lakes Region and this elegant, modern home is located on the desirable northern shore of the lake. This smaller, quieter lake is suitable for children of all ages. Enjoy all of your favorite freshwater activities, fishing, boating, water skiing, tubing, kayaking, etc. (rental comes with two kayaks and a canoe!). For the nature enthusiasts you may paddle or motor your way up the Tenney River where wildlife abounds. This river connects Crescent Lake to the larger Panther Pond. Close proximity to Freeport and Portland offers a multitude of shopping and dining experiences.
The fall is our favorite time of the year on the lake; apple picking, hayrides, and nature walks. Located just a few miles away is Rattlesnake Mountain which offers great family hiking activities. In the winter months we are within easy driving distance to some great skiing including Shawnee Peak, Lost Valley and Sunday River. Snowmobiling, ice fishing, skating, and snowshoeing are all available at your front door, and all the attractions of Portland are only 35 minutes away!
We have a house cleaner who completely cleans the property between rentals. Surfaces and key touch points are disinfected. We also have basic cleaning supplies accessible to guests during their stay, should any cleaning needs arise.

Wonderful vacation house
We were an extended family from all over the U.S. Nine of us (including two kids) stayed in the house, and several others stayed at an inn in Naples and joined us for daytime activities. Everyone had a great time. The variety of things to do at this house, and on lovely Crescent Lake, was perfect for us: kayaking, canoeing, swimming, fishing, plus a pool table and ping pong table.

Great Winter Weekend Getaway
Fabulous spot for inter-generational family long weekend. Plenty of space, nicely cared for home, comfortable and inviting. Even in winter this lake house had lots to offer. We enjoyed board games, the game room and were surprised by the number of great local hikes and paths through the woods. Allowed for lots of outdoor time. Recommend if your looking for a nice getaway.

Great property
We spent a week, for the second summer in a row, at this delightful place. The house is very comfortable with spaces to spread out or be together. The lakefront is large and beautiful, and there are kayaks, a canoe, and other good toys for enjoyment. The owner is very responsive. We definitely plan to return as soon as we can get ourselves across the country to Maine again.

Beautiful setting and a fun place to stay!
Property was well kept and had a well stocked kitchen for cooking. There was plenty of room and we very much enjoyed the game room (pool table, video games, bar, and big screen). Heated floors were also great given that is was below zero at times during our stay. Travelers should be aware that no soaps were provided in the baths (so make sure to bring bath soaps).
Overall we had a wonderful stay and very much enjoyed the area.

Great time for all
This is a great house with plenty of room for everyone. It has a big backyard for the kids and dogs to run around on and leads the beach. Only one neighbor that you really don't see so it feels like you're all alone.
The house comes with all the toys for a great time, paddle boards, canoe, Kayaks and much more; no need to bring your own stuff to have fun.
You will not regret renting this place.

Quintessential Maine
Waking up to views of the lake from the bedroom picture windows, with a fire going in the master bedroom, was the perfect way to enjoy our mini-vacation. Matt’s home exceeded all of our expectations from the game room with a pool table and bar, to the breathtaking lake views. Matt was an excellent host and resource. He recommended nearby places for lunch and dinner (Good Life Market hit the spot!). We look forward to returning here for years to come!
