About the host
Hosted by Jennifer Manter
Summer Haven Properties is more than just a lakeside getaway—it’s a family story spanning generations.
Back in 1955, Mom and Dad Manter found a wooded lot with over 400 feet of beautiful waterfront and saw the perfect place to build their dream. Over the years, it became a place where family gathered, children played in the water until sunset, and memories were made around campfires under the stars.
When they passed, Doug and his sister Dawn felt incredibly blessed to keep this piece of heaven in the family. In 2020, Doug and his wife Jenn, along with Dawn and her husband Alan, came together to continue this legacy by creating Summer Haven Properties.
Thanks to over 25 years of repeat guests who have become like family, we’re able to share this lakeside dream with others, helping you and your loved ones create your own unforgettable moments.
It would be our honor to share Mom and Dad’s lifelong dream with you and your family, so you can experience the joy, peace, and connection that Summer Haven has given us for generations.

Why they chose this property
Tucked along the quiet southwestern side of Snow Pond, this property sits at the widest part of the lake, offering peaceful mornings and stunning sunset views over the water. Here, the shallower waters warm up beautifully in the summer, making it perfect for long, relaxing swim days.
A large sandy beach invites kids to play and build sandcastles while the gentle, shallow waters near the dock offer a safe, fun place for little ones to splash and swim. For older kids—and kids at heart—the floating dock becomes the perfect launch pad for diving contests and cannonballs that echo across the lake.
Directly across the water, the Belgrade Stream offers some of the best fishing in all of Maine, with record-setting catches and peaceful early morning outings for those eager to cast a line.
Whether you’re watching the sunrise with a coffee in hand, swimming all afternoon, or fishing at dusk, this lakeside setting is designed for making the most of every summer moment.
