About this property

Little Red Cabin on the Lake - Canoe, Swim, Fish & Toast Marshmallows

Our beautiful lakefront guest house is nestled in southwestern Maine in the foothills of the White Mountains, on the shores of Bear Lake. Incredible views, access to the lake and mountains right out your door.

The lake is yours to enjoy from your own dock. A canoe and a kayak is available to cabin guests. Fall foliage in Maine is right out your window! Walk for miles or relax indoors and play cards surrounded by pine trees. Snowshoe, ice fish, XC ski right outside in winter.

It is just a short drive to town (Bridgton) for shopping, movie theaters and local restaurants. Our guest home is surrounded by hiking trails. The sounds of loons are magical. It's truly a place to relax and recharge. You won't want to leave!

PLEASE NOTE: The steps/ladder up to the loft are very steep and there is no gate at the top. Parents of small children should take note. Internet yes. TV yes.

Bald eagle, loons and fresh air

Owner is great! Lots of pride in ownership of this property. The entire place is immaculate. Great place to stay for summer vacation, fall foliage, Fryeburg fair, etc. Nearly perfect. Beautiful pond. Not too far off the beaten path. Only minor drawbacks IMO are ; a little road noise from across the pond can be heard if the windows are open. The neighbors are within 100-150 ft. Neither of which would prevent me from returning. Overall, it’s a great rental. I recommend enthusiastically.

Great little place!

Exactly as advertised in the listing. Convenient to anything you may need and yet tucked away and hidden.

Peaceful Retreat

The Little Red Cabin was the perfect spot for an end-of-summer retreat. It had everything that we needed from kitchen equipment, comfy bed, and internet access to peaceful solitude, a chorus of loons and a heavenly lake for swimming. The slope of the hill down to the lake was a challenge with arthritic knees but certainly doable. We ventured off site for some easy hiking and a scenic drive. Ricky, the host, was responsive to any and all questions. It was difficult to pack up and leave but we returned to reality relaxed and refreshed.

Perfect Maine Pond Adventure

So clean and well kept. Efficient use of space. Has everything you need and nothing you don't. Our small family (one 9 year old) made good use of the single kayak, canoe, and firepit. Perfect spot to end the summer.

Great spot on the lake

We had a wonderful week at Ricky’s camp on Bear Pond. Lake was beautiful and we spent the whole week swimming and grilling. We took some local hikes and spent a rainy day in nearby Bridgton. Our girls absolutely loved the loft. Ricky was an excellent host and we would recommend this to any family looking for a beautiful wooded lake life getaway in the heart of Maine.
