This is a great home base to explore the surrounding towns including Hallowell, Gardiner, Belfast and Damariscotta. The house was very well stocked with everything we could've needed and more. Enjoyed swimming and kayaking, and spent lots of time playing board games on the deck. The breeze coming off the lake was idyllic!
