About this property

Water's Edge- cozy lakeside camp

Unwind at the lake year round! Relax on our upper and lower decks, both overlooking the water. Direct access to the lake, which is great for fishing (open water and ice fishing), swimming and boating. Just miles from Belfast, this home features two private bedrooms, two brand new heat pumps (upstairs and downstairs), a new full size washer & dryer, fully stocked kitchen, and newly renovated bathroom! Classic feel with cozy comforts and a private view of Swan Lake!

Our lakeside camp includes two private bedrooms on the bottom floor, each with a new memory foam queen mattress. The master bedroom has a large window with a gorgeous lake view. There is a newly installed sliding glass door entrance on the bottom floor that leads directly to an oversized and recently renovated bottom deck overlooking the private beach area, which is perfect for recreation including boating, swimming, paddle boarding, kayaking, jet skiing and fishing (both open water and ice fishing). We are also less than a mile from the boat launch. Guests are welcome to utilize our new 16 foot dock, kayak and paddle board in season (Memorial Day through Labor Day). There is also a local rental shop for additional watercraft reservations. They deliver to Swan Lake!

The top floor has the street entrance and glass French doors that lead to the expansive upper deck, with additional lake views! Plenty of patio furniture for everyone to enjoy. Our kitchen is fully stocked with dishes, pots/pans, utensils, a stove/oven, microwave, 4-slice toaster, drip coffee maker and essentials for cooking.
Adjacent to the kitchen is a living area with a vaulted ceiling, exposed beams, a 50” HDR Smart Roku TV and a queen pull out with a new gel mattress. Extra pillows, blankets and linens provided. Other features include a dining room table for 6 and extra large capacity front load washer and dryer!

Other things to note:
Our water comes from the lake year round. We provide a drinking water cooler for your use, as available. We are also located only a mile from the Swan Lake store (full service groceries, including water, beer, fresh produce & a deli with hot & cold items made to order).
Parking is directly in front of the lake house, beside the road. Space is available for two vehicles only. Please stay on the house side (left) of the parking sign.
Beach shore area is dependent on water level and varies throughout the season.

Just as expected
The property was exactly as represented. It has all the basic necessities. The location was perfect. Right on the lake so we could do our ice fishing right from the porch. Check in and out was easy. The only small downside was the parking. I have a suburban so there was not a lot of space in front of the cottage for it to fit and be completely off the road. I was a little nervous it would get clipped by someone driving by.

Swan Lake is perfectly situated to provide opportunities for day trips to Acadia National Park, Belfast, Camden and other classic mid-coast Maine towns!

What makes this property unique

We are as close as you can be to Swan Lake with two decks overlooking the water. The three season upper deck boasts expansive windows and plenty of furniture for relaxing in the sunshine or in the evenings under the string lights. The lower deck is even larger, with additional outdoor furniture and stairs that lead to the shoreline.
