Peace and quiet

A wonderful house with something for us all. 4 adults, one who fishes and all who like to enjoy a huge screened porch for reading, dining and cards. Hiking and golf nearby, too. The pond was a bit too rough for kayaking, but they were there for our use. Well appointed kitchen, responsive owner and manager. Would definitely go back.

Lovely Property

Beautiful home on a peaceful lake. Very comfortable accommodations with a well stocked kitchen. We stayed here during the winter and the fireplace was the perfect end to our chilly daytime adventures. The sunsets are absolutely gorgeous. There is a short section of dirt road that will jiggle your innards but going slow will get you through it. The bumps in the road lead to a beautiful home. We would definitely consider staying there again.

Peaceful Family Fun

This is on a wonderful and quiet little lake with waters warm enough to swim in and the best bass fishing around. We stayed with our two kids, ages 3 and 5, for two weeks and had the best time. We will definitely be back next year!

Perfect Family Getaway

We had a fantastic 2 weeks at Tilden Cottage. Everything is just as pictured-sunny, clean and fully equipped. We swam and used the boats and paddle board daily. Also had many fun trips into the nearby towns and Acadia. Can’t wait to return! Thanks so much Deborah!

An amazing retreat

We had a wonderful time at Tilden Cottage. The setting is truly spectacular - incredibly private and serene, and just a 15-20 minute drive to the coast. When we weren't out exploring, we basically lived on the screened porch. The cottage is really well-equipped for families. Deborah was very responsive and made us feel welcomed. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again!

Quiet, peaceful and right on the pond

My wife and our two kids stayed at Deborah’s home between Christmas and New Years. The house was immaculate and cozy, with a well stocked kitchen and amenities like a large library of DVDs. It’s quiet and peaceful, located right on the pond, but easy to get to downtown Camden or Lincolnville, and about 90 minutes from Acadia. We’d definitely stay here again.

Lovely lake cottage

The cabin has been recently renovated and is very pretty. The view is spectacular to look at everyday. It is fairly remote as the town of Belfast and the grocery store is a 20-minute drive one-way. It’s very relaxing and peaceful and if you feel like venturing out there are some cute nearby towns to explore. Lots of good antiquing too! Family of 4 with young children loved it.

Lovely home with the most serene view

The home is gorgeous and cozy. Apparently this issue will be fixed in the spring, but the getting there driving at 6 mph due to potholes the last half mile or so got old very fast.

Hidden Gem

We absolutely loved this property! So many fun activities both inside and out. Being close to the lake was a blast with all the lake toys! We also enjoyed playing the games and puzzles that were provided. Camden is a must, wonderful shopping and restaurants. We went into Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park a couple of times. This was my family's first time to Maine and we have added it to one of our very favorites! We hope to be back some day. Thank you Deborah for the best week!

Heaven on Earth

Tilden Cottage is a very special place. This lovely home is comfortable, tastefully decorated, and furnished with everything you need away from your home. It is located in a private area on Tilden Pond. You can sit out on the dock, listen to the loons, spot other wildlife, and view the most stunning sunsets ever. It is one of the most beautiful and peaceful places on Earth. The location is perfect because you can venture off for easy day trips in all directions going to Acadia National Park, Camden, Belfast, and Pemaquid, or you can just stay there and have a great time. Deborah, the owner is very responsive and helpful with directions or anything you need. Youngs Lobster Pound in Belfast has great food and service. They provide take out or you can eat outside. There are other great restaurants and shops in Belfast and Camden. This is truly an exceptional property and place!

Incredible escape!

Tilden Pond Cottage was everything we needed during these times as a safe escape. We stayed at the cottage for two weeks and enjoyed every minute of it, settling in like it was home. The property and view from the property made every day, we were able to see perfect fall foliage, three bald eagles, many loons, a double rainbow and incredible sunrises and sunsets. To say the property and cottage are picturesque is an understatement. The location was a great in between spot for what we were looking to do while in Maine, we were only 1.5 hours from Acadia and southern coastal towns in Maine. Allowing for easy day trips to explore other areas around the state. Deborah was an incredible host and it was evident this property is one that holds a special place in her heart that she wants to share with others. The cottage has everything you can think of and is very well decorated. The outdoor porch, deck, fire pit and indoor fireplace is where we spent the majority of our time enjoying the view and the company. Deborah was always available for questions and shared great recommendations for local attractions. It was hard to come back to reality after this stay, but we will be back next year!

Peaceful

My partner and I decided to look at a vacation away from the normal big city visits and hectic pace. Maine looked like a place that we could achieve our vacation goals. When we found this cottage on the site, it looked like the perfect spot to get away and recharge our batteries and recharge our relationship. Once we got there, everything was in perfect condition (as advertised) and the location was beautiful with the lake just steps away from the cottage. The amenities we all we needed to be comfortable and more. The quiet was very welcomed. We sat on the dock in the mornings to enjoy that most important first cup of coffee of the day. We took the canoe out a few times just to relax and enjoy the lake. The fishing was great and my partner caught a big, beautiful bass on her first attempt. I think she was hooked on it then!!! At night we sat around a fire outside and just gazed up at the stars which were not affected by any light pollution. We don't get to see that at all in the city. We did day trips to Belfast, Camden and Rockport and loved the seaside towns as well as the lunch and drinks on the patios. We took a trip into Bar Harbor which we fell in love with and decided to stay there for an additional 3 days at the end of our trip. A visit to Acadia National Park is a must for those who like to hike or bike as we do. Overall, this was an amazing area to visit and the cottage stay was the highlight of our trip. We really did achieve our vacation goals and the cottage was the biggest reason why. Would love to go back there some time soon. No. Actually, I would love to be there NOW!!!! Thank you Deborah for providing this beautiful place. A job very well done. Mark

Warm and inviting

This summer cottage on a lovely quiet Maine lake. I can't say enough how wonderful this home is - feels like a real home that just happens to be on water. The host is extremely responsive and the home has everything you need. Gobs of towels, gobs more of games, puzzles, and dvds. Beds are very comfortable and the kitchen is very well equipped. Highly recommend this property for your vacation.

A peaceful retreat on Tilden Pond

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Tilden Cottage. I have never stayed at a property that was so well equipped.The owners thought of everything. From games to a variety of coffee makers, Deborah's home supplied all our needs. We enjoyed visiting friends in Camden and in Belfast, but our favorite times were spent with coffee or a meal on the screened in porch with the best views, especially at sunset. We enjoyed the kayaks and exploring the pond, the loons, the ducks, the geese, the eagles. We will definitely be back.

Wonderful Week at Tilden Cottage

We so enjoyed our week at this cottage. The cottage is very clean, comfortable and well-appointed. We especially love the location and the screened-in porch. The water was warm this year and the loons were quite active! Also, my husband was very happy the fishing was great! Overall, we enjoyed a wonderful time. My only complaint....it went too fast!

Idyllic, Serene Getaway

Tilden Cottage is a wonderful place to truly experience Maine "lakefront" peace and quiet at it's finest! The cottage is perched on an ideal location on the pond{400 acre lake} with amazing mountain views in the distance. Daily bald eagle sightings were spectacular! Listening to close and distant loon calls was a blast. We thoroughly enjoyed spending time on the water using the provided kayaks and SUP. At most times it felt like we had our own private lake all to ourselves! Tilden Cottage has all the "modern" amenities that one could want and yet manages to maintain that "rustic" cabin feel at the same time. All the beds/furnishings in the house are quite comfortable and nicely match the decor. The cottage is fully stocked with all kinds of games, books and movies to enjoy. Tilden Pond is definitely "off the beaten path" however it is a close enough drive to partake in all that the Camden/Belfast areas have to offer. Deborah{the owner} goes out of her way to facilitate an excellent experience and she quickly responds to all communication. Easily one of the most enjoyable and picturesque spots I have had the pleasure of staying in. Hoping to be able to return to Tilden Cottage at some point down the road! Thanks again Deborah for sharing Tilden Cottage with us. it is appreciated!

We've stayed at Deborah's beautiful home on Tilden Pond twice this year, and hope to return again in the future. It was the perfect respite we were looking for, and we can't recommend this place highly enough. Deborah is incredibly kind and eminently available, and her family home is even more beautiful than these photos suggest.

Absolutely Lovely

Everything was wonderful. You couldn't ask for a better hostess than Deborah. She answered all our inquiries very promptly and was very forthcoming with information about the area. The house was immaculate, a classic cottage without being cluttered. The kitchen was fully equipped, the beds were very comfortable. The property is very private. Tilden Pond was crystal clear and warm. We had a few very hot days and we spent the entire afternoons floating and paddling. The eagles were an almost constant presence. There were a pair of loons calling as well. Early mornings and afternoons saw us all lined up on the porch in rockers to watch the Sun go up and go down. I highly recommend Tilden Cottage and would love to return.
