About this property

Sand Pond Escape located in Picturesque East Baldwin, ME.

This seasonal property is located on a very quiet 70 acre pond in the rural Town of East Baldwin. The camp is located right on the shore of the pond and includes a small sandy beach and dock. The water is shallow in front of the camp making it ideal for guests with young children. The depth increases gradually and there are no sudden drop-offs. The bottom is mostly sandy with no aquatic vegetation to have to wade through.

The property is located 1/2 mile in on a dirt road from Rte. 11/107. The camp includes two bedrooms with queen size beds and one bedroom with twin bunk beds. There is a single bathroom with a shower only. The water comes from a drilled well so there are no problems with the water quality. For your entertainment, the camp has DIRECTV, and a DVD player. The camp has a gas cook stove and an outdoor gas grille is provided for your grilling pleasure. Please note that there is NO WIFI as this is only a seasonal cottage that is occupied less than 4 months out of the year and there is NO LAUNDRY FACILITIES despite VRBO having it listed as coin laundry available. There is a Laundromat in Windham which is 20 minutes away.

If you are interested in fishing, Sand Pond is noted as an excellent bass fishing pond. General fishing regulations apply to this pond and anyone 16 years old and over are required to have a State of Maine Fishing License. There are also no special boating regulations on this pond, however, any boat with any type of a motor must have a current boat registration from any state. Also, Maine requires that a suitable sized life jacket must be in the boat for each person onboard.

There is a local convenience store located about a mile away known as The Whistle Stop. They make excellent pizzas as well as a variety of both hot and cold sandwiches and if you are running low on gas you'll find that they have gas pumps as well. If you need to do a lot of shopping, North Windham is only a 25 minute drive away and here you will find Shaw's, Hannaford and Walmart as well as just about all the various fast food chains like MacDonald's, Burger King, Dunkin Donuts, Dairy Queen, Wendy's, Kentucky Fried Chicken and more. If you like shopping the outlet stores, then the Town of North Conway, NH is the place for you and it is only a 40 minute drive and also has a Super Walmart and Shaw's.

Note: NO tents or campers are allowed to be set up or brought onto the property. Any guests that come over to visit are not allowed to stay overnight. Overnight stay is limited to the number of people listed on the rental agreement which is four..
