This is our second stay at this home. It's spacious and comfortable. The location is beautiful and very convenient to Colby College campus. The view of the lake from the house, deck, backyard, and dock is lovely. We were able to use the provided kayaks and had a nice paddle. The host is very communicative. I would definitely stay here again if I visit the area.

Matt accommodated our evolving vacation plans… and even managed us locking ourselves out of the house. The place is truly lovely. The pics are accurate. Hope to schedule another visit to this well cared for and beautiful property.

Why they chose this property

Oakland is a great town. Additionally, it is close to several grocery stores, Walmart, and others. Many rentals are far some similar necessities.

What makes this property unique

You can see the lake from all three floors. Two large decks overlooking the water provide ample space and the lower deck is covered to keep you dry in inclement weather. The walk to the water is a gently sloped lawn to a sandy/pebbly entry to the water. There is a sizeable and sturdy dock that can host two boats. More than all this, it brings our guest peace.
