About this property

Morning sun, coffee in hand, a good book and so much more...

Lake side cottage with covered porch looking out to granite islands with hills beyond. Spend a quiet day kayaking, swimming or hiking the State Park, then enjoy the night life of Camden and Rockport minuets away. Or relax on the deck listening to the loons and watching the moon rise over Hosmer Pond.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions or special requests. I hope you have a fabulous time at Loon Cottage!

The Loon was everything we could have asked for as a home away from home. It was charming, comfortable, well equipped, and the deck and dock made our stay so enjoyable. Thank you, Lisa!

We had such a wonderful stay at this cozy lakefront home. It was the perfect size for just the two of us—small, but comfortable and just what we needed. Everything was very clean and well-kept, and the owner was excellent with communication, making everything simple and stress-free. Our favorite part was spending time on the deck looking right out over the lake, enjoying the peaceful views and watching the three loons that hung around nearby. Such a special and relaxing spot.

Lovely spot on a quiet pond. We very much enjoyed watching the loons, ducks, heron and turtles from the deck. Our lab loved playing in the water from the easy accessible water. Limited motor boats on the pond and a dead end road made for a quiet week. Cabin is comfortable and well equipped. Close to neighboring towns for exploring.Bonus that the cabin is so near The Place (great cinnamon buns) and Scott’s (inexpensive lobster rolls and great onion rings)! Lisa was spot on with communication. We hope to stay again!

This VRBO was fantastic. The kitchen was better stocked than any other rental i have stayed. Everything was clean and tidy. The views are beautif. It is a quick drive to grocery, gas, walking trails, and the down town Camden area. Lisa gave us great recommendations for hikig trails, site seeing, and food! We really enjoyed our stay and woukd book again if we make our way back to Maine.

The house and grounds were very private. located overlooking a quiet lake. Although neighboring houses were in reasonably close proximity, the area was very quiet. The house was well stocked and comfortable for the two of us.. Opportunity was available for both indoor and outdoor dining. Bugs were at a minimum, Shhh!.We spent time exploring Hosmer Pond each day. Only occasional other boaters were on the lake. only small motors were allowed, so the noise was at a minimum.Check out the toboggan run on the west side of the lake, as well as the MarshallPomt Lighthouse south of the immediate areas, in Port Clyde.The house is a good base for exploring the more tourist oriented activities on Route 1. Only @ 10 miles from the action made all the difference in the world. Shopping was convenient, with a Hannifords, as you turn onto Route 1 and a great organic farm stand on the road to the house..Lisa, the property manager was easy to reach and provided local information. A real find.!

Perfect Location

We had a great stay at Loon Cottage. Comfortable and cozy, and in a perfect location. Camden and Rockport are less than ten minutes away; both have excellent restaurants and shops. The lake is lovely and right off the deck. Communication with Lisa was easy and check in was a breeze.

Perfect Spot for a Fall Getaway

The location of this cabin is ideal- you are just a few minutes drive from all the amenities Camden has to offer and you get your water view- which we found more serene than the ocean with the beautiful loons calling. This cabin has everything you need and then some! We hope to return!

Loon Cottage is a gem!

We absolutely loved our stay at Loon Cottage. Very comfortable and so peaceful, definitely did not want to leave. Loved spending time on the deck and dock, and comfy hanging out with the wood stove. Wonderful to paddle around in the canoe in the sun (even our dog liked that part!) Lisa was very responsive and we sure hooe to come again in the future.

Wonderful!

The Loon Cottage was so comfortable and clean! The views are amazing. The beds were very comfortable with very nice linens. It was far enough away from Camden that we had privacy and quiet but close enough that we could go out to eat or shop easily! One of my favorite places we have ever stayed!

Fantastic week in Camden

We stayed for a week with kids and a dog. The house was perfect for our needs, well stocked and comfortable. The pond is beautiful and clean with loons calling in the morning and evening. The location can’t be beat, you’re about 8 minutes from downtown Camden, but feel away from it all at the house. Looking forward to going back next year.

Lake Cottage

We absolutely loved this place, I would recommend this place and Lisa to anybody who wants to come. Lisa (the owner) was SO nice and she stopped by to check if we were doing good and if we needed anything. The place is so clean and specially SO cozy. You are a 5 minute drive from Camden and a grocery store. We were also about 1:40 from Acadia national park. If we come back to Camden, this will be the place we stay :)

A quiet well stocked cottage on a lovely loon lake. However only a very short car ride from all that Camden and Rockport have to offer. In summary, a perfect respite.
