Peaceful lakeside getaway
Start your day at Young's Point Cottage on the screened porch overlooking the water. Put in your canoe or kayak and paddle around the 650-acre lake. Fall asleep to the sounds of the wind in the big pine trees and the loons calling to each other across the lake. Relax and unwind in this peaceful spot on Togus Pond, 10 minutes from downtown Augusta.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Mary MacDonald-Murray
Logan and Mary are a physician and a school office administrator, respectively, parents of three children, who live in Freeport, Maine, but love to visit our camp on Young's Point.
Why they chose this property
This is a family home, built by Logan's great-great-grandfather on land that's been in our family since the late 1800s. It was insulated and winterized in the late 1980s, with a drilled well installed in 1992 and a new septic system in 1999; the furnace, which provides hot water as well as heat, was replaced in 2019. The location is private, with no immediate neighbors, on a well-maintained gravel road.
What makes this property unique
Augusta is Maine's state capital, with local attractions such as historic Fort Western and the Maine State Museum, both ideal for kids and history buffs. The Maine coast, including Portland, is about an hour away. This spot on Togus Pond is an ideal starting point for day trips to many different places in Maine, as well as a great spot to spend a relaxing day.
