The check-in instructions were very easy to understand. The property and the house itself was clean and well maintained. The listing was exactly as described. There was one minor issue that didn't really affect our stay at all. I notified the property manager a day or so before leaving so they could address it. They answered promptly.

The view was fantastic- the pictures don’t lie. And the setting was so serene. The beds were comfortable, and the kitchen adequately stocked. The futon cushions could be updated, but were still quite comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay.

Weekend stay

The location on the lake was great and very peaceful! The space was perfect for what we needed. The downstairs bedrooms were a bit chilly so bring extra blankets if you get cold.

Serene family vacation

The house was comfortable, clean and a good size for a family of 5. We loved the location, waking up everyday to have tea by the lake, we roasted marshmellows in the fire pit and we saw 2 loons and heard them calling, it was a peaceful experience! We are hoping to stay there again in the future!

Wonderful stay at a house on Estes Lake

Spacious 3 bedroom house (2 queens, 1 double) on Estes Lake with fantastic views. We found the house very clean and comfortable. Wish we had our kayaks with us! Would definitely stay here again!

Picture perfect!

We had a lovely 3 night stay. The views are incredible. We enjoyed cooking in and sitting by the fire pit. So perfect we never left. The kitchen was well equipped and the beds were very comfortable. We rented a kayak for the weekend and made great use of the dock. The bonus was this property is dog friendly!

Lakeside getaway

House is bigger inside than it appears, with plenty of room to spread out the kids and adults. The deck and view of the water is perfection. My wife didn't want to leave and she is picky!

Great for Kids

We had a very nice three night stay as a family of four with two small kids. The kids enjoyed fishing off the dark and roasting marshmallows on the open fire. Water was a bit cold and weedy for swimming but was able to take out the stand up paddleboard and give rides to my kids. Will definitely consider staying again.

August Vacation

We had a great time at the property. Kids swam (despite the water weeds), nice fire pit, great views, and only 30 minutes to the beach for a beach day. There were plenty of towels and there were linens on the beds. Beautiful view and sunsets. Air conditioning was an added bonus!

Wonderful little get-away!

We rented the house to celebrate my mother's 60th birthday with a small family vacation and it was perfect! We were able to bring my mom's dog and the four of us had a wonderful and relaxing time. The house was great and is in a great location. The view is even better in person!! The only issue was that the heat was on 55 when we arrived so it took a few hours for the house to warm up - but it did no problem and the electric fireplace helped a bunch! I highly recommend staying here.

A nice cottage, not the best option for kids

This house was in a lovely location with a great view, dock and boat access. Overall the home was okay, there was dog hair all over the upholstery and the kitchen supplies was in poor condition and pretty sparse. May not be the best option if you have kids and plan to cook a lot of meals. The outdoor grill and fire pit were great and overall the check in process was easy.

Oh My, What a View!

We brought family, visiting from Oklahoma, to Maine for the Fall Colors and we were so thrilled with the view of the lake from the entire upper floor! The colors reflected off the water making for awesome pictures! The beds were only full size but were comfortable. It was perfect for the two couples with bedrooms on the upper and lower floors with two bathrooms as well. The location was perfect for taking day trips to the beach and hike the mountains. We thoroughly enjoyed our stand would recommend!!
