The lakeside cottage was absolutely perfect for our family gathering. It comfortably accommodated 7 of us ranging from 5 - 88 years old. The lake was quiet and great for swimming and canoe adventures. We heard loons, spotted bald eagles, had campfires, jumped off the floating dock for hours on end, soaked in the sunsets and played games. The cottage, the lake and the surrounding woods made for an idyllic summer retreat. Highly recommended!

Great little get away. Can't beat the view. The cabin had everything we needed, nothing we didn't. Did most of our cooking on a fire, and fished. It was a great place to relax.

Our stay was perfect. The camp has everything you need, and the loons on the lake made it extra special. I grew up with a camp in Maine, and this felt so familiar. We hope to return again and again. Thank you to our hosts for sharing such a special place—the secret history we discovered made it even more fun.

Paradise on the Lake

Lake house was well equipped for our family of 7 to sleep well, eat well and enjoy the serenity of lake life. Morning coffee on the dock with the Loons swimming and calling to sunset and camp fire time. Not to mention the swimming and kayaking in the crystal clear lake. The week exceeded our expectations.

We had a beautiful week at this lovely Maine camp. The fire pit on the beach, lake side, was perfect. Kitchen is stocked for cooking (although we tend to bring a few of our fav tools anywhere we go). Bathrooms are modern and updated. Grocery store is only 15 minutes away. The lake traffic is not overwhelming at all. Would love to stay again.

Perfect Vacation

Awesome cabin, private setting, and a nice dock for our boat. Kitchen is appointed with everything we needed. The view of the lake is amazing at sunset. We enjoyed our stay, I only wished we could have extended it. This was our second year and I’d highly recommend.

Family get together

Loved the dock and the float! Dinner on the screened in porch with the sunset across the lake was a special treat. Appreciated the fire pit set up although we didnt have a chance to use it. Lots of space and teens enjoyed the loft room. Was extremely hot when we were here but using house fans and opening up the house it was possible to maintain a comfortable temperature.

Thanks for leaving a 5-star review, Edward! Our beach area is great for sitting around the fire, but most guests enjoy swimming off the dock and float. Sometimes you can even see fish swimming near the shore.

Classic Maine lake cabin

I have stayed in the area before on Middle Range Pond and am very familiar with both Middle Range and Upper Range ponds. Both are great for fishing and are relatively quiet compared to some of the more developed ponds and lakes in the area. The house is comfortable and has a great Maine cabin feel with a wonderful view of sunsets. The docks is nice and we greatly appreciated the use of the two kayaks and the canoe. Hope to stay there again.

Tranquility & beauty

It was my first trip to Maine and this property was all we were hoping for. Waking up with coffee on the dock each morning to beautiful sunsets each night by the fire. Loved the sound of the loons. We kayaked, canoed and swam in the water and found so many different mushrooms on the property! Close enough to do rockhounding in White Mountains & visit lighthouses & breweries in Portland. The cabin had all our needs and was cozy & clean. Truly love the place!

Very clean and well kept property

I give Gail 5 stars. If you're a family with children it's perfect, but if you're looking for some quiet time you're not going to find it here. Property owners on the other side of the pond light up their properties like a Christmas display and and they either don't know or don't care how their loud voices carry across the water. These are things that Gail has no control over, but as I said if you're a family with children..... perfect!

Hi Thom, the cottage has been fully booked all summer, and we’ve had a number of couples looking for a quiet getaway. This is the first time we’ve heard about an issue with noise. Most of the time the lake is beautiful and serene.

Maine camp experience on a quintessential Maine lake

Stayed here in May 2024 for a long weekend. This is a clean, well-equipped, rustic "cabin in the woods" on the edge of Upper Range Pond. The cabin feels private in the midst of the trees and has a clear western view of the lake from the porch. There is a generous open area right by the water for gathering (with a fire pit), and the dock was also large enough for my spouse and I to share coffee on early mornings or watch the sun go down. We were serenaded by loons throughout the day and night and were able to also watch eagles and ospreys pass over. During the summer there are more power boats on the lake, but was quiet while we were there. There is everything you need inside the cabin for a comfortable stay of several days. There is one queen bed on the first floor and another in the loft; the other beds are bunks. It was cool at night when we stayed but the heating system did the trick. We used the two kayaks; Upper Range is not that big and it was easy to kayak around. A channel connects to Middle Range Pond. I used the wireless during my stay for doing some work and had no problem either video conferencing or streaming video on my devices. While the cabin location is on a small gravel one lane road with only about 8 houses on it, it is near to amenities. The nearest supermarket is only about 15 minutes away so and Nonesuch Brewery just opened a brew pub about 5 minutes drive on Middle Range Pond. Portland is about 35-40 minutes away.
