Perfect lakeside retreat

This beautiful home had everything we needed for a relaxing vacation. The living space was very clean and comfortable with a well stocked kitchen and nice deck where we enjoyed the beautiful sunsets, and the lake was great for kayaking. It was also close enough to easily explore the Maine coastline. Peter and Jennifer were super hosts with great communication and easy check-in/check-out. We would definitely love to stay here again!

A perfect gem

We only stayed one night but wished it could have been longer. What a perfect home on the lake. Pete was a great host and made us feel extremely welcome. Online pictures don’t quite do this property justice. Highly recommend staying here.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the property. Peter and Jennifer are excellent hosts. Our only constructive comments would be to highlight the steep staircase and high tub to any persons with a disability. We were able to circumvent the stairs by walking to the front of the property, which was an easy workaround, and we managed the tub. These are not criticisms but a heads up for others so not surprised. We loved the location and house.

Loved every second

This lakeside is a family heirloom. We met the owner who gave us a little history of his home. It was immaculate. I loved all the little painted tiles, built in shelves; it was visually appealing. My favorite part was sitting on the deck in the morning or evening.. it was so peaceful. At night one can hear the loons. I hope to return someday. Maine is a beautiful state, and this home sits on a little piece of heaven.

Great lakefront getaway

Perfect girls weekend on the lake. My 3 friends and I found the property to be meticulously clean and well-stocked. Peter was helpful with anything we needed and the location on the lake can't be beat. Half an hour or so into Portland for dinner and/or sightseeing. We'll be back next summer!

Great lakeside location

We enjoyed our stay. Super clean house located in a secluded area but close enough to the city and beaches. Well equipped kitchen which enabled us to cook meals. Great to meet the owners who were friendly and even offered boat rides on the lake!

Wonderful place!

We enjoyed the lake house very much! Beautiful views out every window of either the lake or wooded gardens. The place afforded lots of privacy with its location and was well appointed with everything we needed and more. The owners were on site, helpful and friendly, and even offered a boat ride to see an eagles nest! My husband and I and my sister and brother-in-law really enjoyed our stay and felt completely at home. Thank you again!

Friends Getaway

We had such a relaxing, enjoyable stay on Highland Lake. The house is SO nice and the pictures don’t do it justice. Peter and Jennifer have provided everything you would need for an extended stay. We loved it so much we didn’t need to do anything but enjoy the deck! Take a ride to Mackworth Island State Park in Falmouth for a 1.5 mile perimeter walk in the woods. Peaceful, picturesque and mostly in the shade. Thank you, Peter and Jennifer!

Lovely lakefront property in the Maine woods

The photos of this property on the listing don’t do it justice. It’s really lovely. You are literally 10 steps from the lake. The kitchen is amazingly well-stocked, there’s a nice deck on the water, the views from any room on the back side of the house are of the lake (which was very quiet), and the owner was kind enough to share a bottle of wine. This property is less than 30 minutes from downtown Portland. While staying there we went to the Maine Maritime Museum in Bath (highly recommend) where we took a boat ride and saw 10 lighthouses and some lovely territory, and we did a catamaran sail out of Saco which was fun and relaxing. We also visited Kennebunkport and some beaches in that area. This place is great if you need a break from city life or want a terrific home base to explore the area.

Upscale retreat

What a gem! This home (even nicer than the photos!) is beautifully decorated and well appointed and close to Portland. The owners, Pete and Jen, took great care stocking the home with everything you'd need, including excellent drinking water (new water filtration system). If I couldn't find something (lobster crackers for instance), Pete happily supplied it (lobster crackers and bibs, for instance). It was like having my best neighbor transported to Maine. Large windows/glass doors in every room ensure great lake views throughout. Comfortable beds/sofa/plenty of linens and soap/hand sanitizer/ and even garage space for the car! What more could I ask for? Sitting on the patio every morning and watching the sunset from the same spot every evening was a highlight. This ain't your grandparents "camp", and that's a very good thing.

the ultimate vacation spot

It was a beautiful spot with a spectacular view. It was off the beaten trail so conducive for walking and biking. My husband and I got up every morning and sat not he deck over-looking the water and had our coffee. At night we listened to the loons. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen well stocked. The owner and his wife were lovely, incredible helpful and full of good information. We will be returning..

Lakeside Utopia

What a find!! This was the perfect spot to stay while touring the local colleges. It was immaculate and a comfortable size for our family of four. We really enjoyed the large deck overlooking the lake and saw some spectacular sunsets. Pete was a fantastic host and even went out of his way to mail us some laundry we left behind.
