We had a wonderful time at Heavn Sent. The layout of the cabin was ideal, the views were spectacular, and it is located a convenient distance from Belfast. Our host was also accommodating and communicative. We had a great time!

What a beautiful place to stay. We enjoyed the Pleiades meteor showers from the deck. We canoed, kayaked and swam every day. The place was well-stocked with every item you could possibly need for your stay. We never left the house; we didn’t need to. Very relaxing and rejuvenating experience.

Best on Swan Lake!

We've stayed on Swan Lake for over 10 years and this home and location can't be beat! The host was responsive and the house was well equipped with anything you may need. Excellent views on the quaintest street on the lake!

Beautiful relaxing stay

We couldn't have asked for a more perfect spot for a long weekend to rest and relax. The house had everything we needed. Everyday was a treat seeing (and hearing) loons, and even a couple of bald eagles. We will certainly return.

My friend and our families had an absolutely wonderful stay at Heav'nsent. This beautiful, comfortable family home had everything we needed and then some. Our indoors-loving, screen-adept kids were drawn outside immediately and spent the week soaking up as much dock and lake time as they possibly could.Tip: Even though our vacation took us around Maine a little, we ended up enjoying the time we spent kayaking and swimming in the lake and exploring closer to home a little. (Moose Creek State Park and the local restaurants were hits!)

At waters edge

Great stay, clean, safe, dog friendly, great location, easy to get everywhere on day trips. Yet just outside of dealing with the crowds. The views of Swan lake are amazing. All you need at the house. The Darby had best lobster rolls also the Hoot restaurant a must go. Would stay again

Relaxing weekend with friends

House was great and very comfortable, SO many amenities. Stunning views. Easy access to grocery stores nearby. Crowded lake with ample sound from the road across the lake and many motorized vehicles on the lake. We very much enjoyed the kayaks and canoe, and the loons!

Happy Place

This was our second time we stayed at Andrea’s in Swanville. We have rented several homes over the years but this one is our absolute favorite. It’s quiet and relaxing at the lake house house with plenty of indoor and outdoor activities but also a short distance to Belfast for shopping and great restaurants. Andrea was an excellent host who went out of her way to help schedule our stay this year and was always available for questions. The memories we had here will last a lifetime!

Maine Vacation

Very nice home with frontage on a pretty lake. Beautiful view.Accurate listing. Good sized combination family room kitchen and dining room on main floor with walkout deck along the entire length. Good sized bedrooms. Property was very clean. All needed amenities are available. Acadia is a 70 minute drive to Bar Harbor. Highly recommend Young’s Lobster Depot for lobster.

Lake living in Maine

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Andrea‘s place. Everything went super smoothly. She greeted us at the house with crumpets, blueberry jam and honey from Maine. Everything was clean and in good order. The kitchen was fully functional. Having the kayaks and canoe were perfect. The lake and the neighborhood the home is in are lovely. Views of the lake from every window on the back of the house are beautiful. Thank you for a great place to stay as we explored Maine.

Amazing location

Andrea’s house was amazing. My wife said she wanted to stay forever when she first walked in! The view of the lake again….amazing! The house was roomy and clean! We traveled to Acadia and Bar Harbor. The trip was a tad long (about 1 hr to both places), but worth the drive to get away from the hustle and bustle and to enjoy the atmosphere at the house! Andrea was easy to communicate with and to work with! She helped us add another night to our stay! If ever in Maine again I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again! John L and family.

Start your Maine Adventure Here!

Andrea's house was in a perfect location for transversing mid coast Maine. Situated at the end of a dirt road, overlooking beautiful Swan Lake, the views were outstanding! There was plenty of room for the whole family, including an expansive deck with many different seating options. Everything you will need for an enjoyable vacation, is at this house, including floaties to soak up the rays while lounging on the lake. Don't worry about the German Shepherd(Bruno)next door, he comes over to play...it's just like having another family member around! Will not hesitate to book this house again, for our next Maine adventure!
