My husband and I stayed at Paula’s home for three nights. The checkin process went smoothly. The house was immaculate and very inviting. The house is steps from the lake. Quiet and peaceful neighborhood. We took advantage of the lake by swimming, kayaking and fishing. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to make a meal. We enjoyed a fire each night and were fortunate to see the full moon rise up over the trees. Such a beautiful sight. Would highly recommend staying at Paula’s home if you are looking for a relaxing and peaceful getaway.Thank you so much, Paula!

Lovely Lakeside

My husband, adult daughter and I spent a week at this wonderful house. It is comfortably furnished with a modern kitchen, and beautiful views of the lake. We enjoyed kayaking, canoeing and fishing right from our dock. Paula was a perfect host and answered any questions we had promptly. We would definitely stay here again.

Perfect Maine Lake Escape

What a great escape from the hustle and bustle of life! My husband and I loved the cottage on the lake. Everything was beautiful from the kitchen to the views to the quiet setting! Our host was tremendous and went out of her way to make us feel welcomed, even leaving fresh flowers for our arrival. The location is ideal. We did day trips to Freeport and Portland and came home to the sit on the deck and watch the . I highly recommend this tranquil escape!!

Our hosts work hard to make this home special. And indeed it is! They pay attention to details from night lighting on the outside picnic table to providing firewood. The kitchen is roomy with all the needed pots, pans, and utensils. This home lacks for nothing. And, oh, did I mention the loons?

Forest Lake, Gray Maine

This property is wonderful! We arrived to an impeccably clean house. There were welcoming touches left for us. The kitchen is well thought and stocked with good quality houseware. The beds and living spaces were very comfortable. The views of the lake are stellar - we had an added bonus of there being a full moon to appreciate. We highly recommend this property and intend to return.
