About this property

Beautiful lakefront home only steps from your own private sandy beach that faces west, providing some of the most stunning sunsets you'll find!! Home has cathedral ceilings in the living room/dinning room area with exposed timber. Well maintained and fully equipped lakeside house with a distinct "Camp" feel. Glassed in sun room with direct deck access that looks straight at the lake, simply beautiful views anytime of the day or night. Loft above the sun room makes for a unique sleeping experience for kids or a couple. There is a separate bunk house beside the main house with its own bedroom and bathroom, included in the rental. The beach is private and secluded from the neighbors with a canoe and twin kayak use included with the rental as well, along with a dock if you bring a boat (some lifejackets provided but we recommend you bring your own to ensure proper fit). Relax and take in the views from the deck as you grill, or enjoy the fire pit on the beach with your feet in the sand. Kick back and listen to the loons call back and forth almost every night. There are several Eagles at the lake as well and they are seen frequently from the lake house. Truly a serene environment to melt away any worries of the outside world. Easily houses 2 average size families if you want to share the home with friends. Grocery store with most everything you would need is only 3 miles down the road.
House is fully stocked with everything you'll need, has AC for those hot summer nights, and heated for cool spring or fall evenings. Only 10 miles to the coast for Seafood as fresh as it gets, or just about an hour to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. Several golf courses within 30 min as well.

We are flexible as far as payments are concerned. Currently set up for 1 payment in total at time of booking, but we can separate out payments into 2 or 3 installments if needed. Please let me know when you send a booking request if you would like to separate into 2 or 3 payments, and I will make the adjustment when I send it back to you. You will not be charged until I accept and send the changes back to you.

Please note that there is NO WIFI at the lakehouse. Cell service is good if you need to hotspot, but if you are working while at the lakehouse, you are doing it all wrong!

Relaxing anniversary week on the lake

We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived that the listing was accurate, and were welcomed with wine and s'mores! We drove up from North Carolina, so we arrived late in the evening with our pups, but the light was on for us! We really appreciated the amazing views we woke up to each day, the quiet surroundings, and friendly neighbors. Plenty of places to explore in Belfast and Searsport, but we also ventured to Bangor for some fine dining. Josh was very responsive to my questions prior to our arrival, and we really appreciated the ability to travel with our dogs. They all thoroughly enjoyed the lake and the trails we explored. Thank you for opening your wonderful home. ☺️ Really a lovely place to stay, and we hope to come back! ~The Hubert's

Family get together

This house was everything we needed for our family get together. Plenty of space for all of us. The cub cabin is the perfect addition. Everything was clean and exactly how it should have been. Josh was really great at communication. Would definitely come again if we come back to Maine.

Beautiful spot.

This house is awesome. Extremely quite and a pretty much perfect spot to unwind. Josh was super easy to work with and was available if needed although we did not need him for anything 👍 The house is extremely well appointed and the nice little touches around the house were appreciated. Beautiful sunsets on the beach or from the big windowed room over looking the lake. We really had no complaints or issues at all with the house. We will stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Josh Pooler

Hello! We are Josh and Bethany. We are originally from Maine and both grew up close to Swan Lake, and have most of our family and many friends still in the area and on the lake. We previously owned a different house on Swan Lake and lived there for almost 10 years. The lake itself and the people that live here are second to none. We moved away in 2018 due to other circumstances, but Swan Lake will always be "home" to us. We are extremely excited to own a piece of it once again. Its a beautiful property and we hope you enjoy it as much as we do!!

Why they chose this property

Come stay with us once..... you will want to come back!!

What makes this property unique

There are not many places on the lake that have a quiet and secluded beach such as ours. Points come out on either side of the beach to create its own private cove. The house itself being so close to the waters edge, with the glassed in front make for views and sunsets that you will never forget. Its truly pristine.
