This is the second time my wife and I have stayed at this property. Location is great! The place is quite small, but for our needs, it was just right. We were so busy touring Camden, Rockland, and Rockport that we didn't spend much time at the house. My morning swims in the pond were a refreshing way to start each day! Brenda, the owner, is great. Very attentive, as needed.

Cons: We were informed that the water heater was what would fit in the smaller home and traveling in a RV alot we are use to a 6gal water heater but the one there did not supply close to as much hot water. We were able to rinse off in the shower quickly but I washed my hair in the sink. This may be a big deterrent to some but it wouldn't stop us because the pros outweigh the cons.
The Pros: location is great being close to lots of great activities (I highly recommend both lighthouses

My husband and I had a wonderful time at our stay on Chickawaukee Pond. The owners went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. After enjoying the sights around Rockland, we returned each day to enjoy the sunset on the lakefront swing. We felt safe & comfortable. The location is a short drive from downtown. We would recommend this cottage for a couple or singles anytime!

Cute little cottage on a lake in a quiet area. Very peaceful and relaxing

We really loved this little cottage. Serene setting, on the water. So lovely in the morning and at night. Absolutely gorgeous view. When we go again (and we do plan it!) we will go when it is a bit warmer (we stayed in mid -September) and it was a bit too cold to really enjoy the lovely backyard. We did get a few good weather days and were able to enjoy the hammock and the firepit. The hostess, Brenda was so responsive to any questions we had. The cottage was well equipped and very conveniently located, close to Camden and Rockland. There is so much to see and do, and all very close by. We would like to return and see the Puffins! One thing to be aware of is that it is on a well, which means that you will have great drinking water right from the tap, but this also means that you will need to space your showers as the hot water can run out. Lovely place and great hosts! We hope to return!

We enjoyed every minute and everything about our stay in this charming cottage. It was quiet and peaceful in a private setting, yet close enough to Rockland and Rockport to bike there and back. The view of the pond from the outside patio was beautiful, especially when sitting in the outdoor porch swing.

Cottage on Chickawaukee Pond
Perfect spot for 2 looking for a quiet getaway! Close proximity to all the area has to offer. Brenda & Jim are super nice and right next door for anything you might need. Frontage on the pond is beautiful (very shallow), need to wade out to swim. No big deal. We loved our visit to the area and look forward to returning!

Great Three Day getaway in Rockport, ME
Quaint cottage right on a pond. Small but all that is needed for a short getaway. Plenty of outside amenities including grill, deck, double swing on tree, lawn chairs in sun by pond, fire pit, second table by pond. Close to Camden and Rockport for biking, golf and dining activities.

Awesome location
The location of this place right on the MidCoast is so convenient to everything. The property was absolutely beautiful. The owners live next door and are just wonderful people. Would highly recommend
5.0
Highly recommended! This is a perfect location to enjoy the mid-coast towns, lighthouses, hiking trails, shoreline, museums, and many restaurants. The cottage was clean, well appointed, and has a comfortable bed. The front and backyard are nicely landscaped, and the property goes to the pond (large like a lake). You may dine outside on the deck or use the table by the water. Brenda, the host, was helpful and friendly.

Great September Getaway
My husband and I enjoyed our vacation at this beautiful cottage. Lots to see and do in the Rockport area, or just hang out and enjoy the relaxing property. Located right on the lake, with outside furniture to play cards or just sit and enjoy nature. We had a very relaxing, enjoyable time.

Amazing!!!!
I cannot say enough nice things about the property or the owners. The property was exactly as advertised. The house was adorable. The outside space phenomenal. The view could not be beat. The location was great too. Close to Camden, Rockport, Rockland, Tennant’s Harbor, etc. I also cannot express how responsive the owners were. Just amazing. We will back next year!

Inside_Bedroom_Bathroom_cleanliness of the bedroom_Hot water-water heater
The back area deck and the closeness to the pond are great. Grill really came in handy. The Bedroom was musty, paneling was all buckled and very small. Bathroom was extremely small we had to actually house our toiletries on the kitchen table. Be prepared there is about a 6gallon water heater that is located under the kitchen sink. No place to put your suitcase, had to put one of the suitcases on the recliner. The towels/washcloths had bleach stains and what looked like tar on them. Again the outside was great, location was spot-on. The owners live next door, on one of the evenings they had company, weren't all that loud however we knew they had company. so we called it a night and went in,.

Brenda was very attentive pre-trip, and the location is great. But there was hardly enough water for 1x 5-min warm shower, never mind 2 back to back. The A/C unit decided to work sometimes, and sometimes decided not too. And the screen on the door was so shot, bugs kept finding their way in if we left the door open and screen shut (which was not just an inconvenience, but a problem since the A/C was shotty).
Cheaply furnished accomocadations on the surface isn't SO bad so long as you are paying for the property on the outside. The property was beautiful and perfectly located for sure. But the star of the outdoor space is the lake of course, and this too was poorly kept up. Just in our little area, I found a piece of broken glass, stepped on a sharp piece of fake flooring, cutting my foot, and found a massive 4ft x 6ft section of rusted chain link fence, no more than 5 yards to the right of the paddle boat (right where the kids and adults play in the water!). This fence had clearly been here for years, as it was so rusted that it was breaking every time I tried to clean it up. If our daughter had stepped on any of this, we would have been in big trouble.
I left this exact review, in private, for Brenda, but her response was just that we should have let them know and they would have done something about it. Except for the A/C unit, these are all things that should have been taken care of before somebody pays to stay at your place, not having to deal with the trouble while on their short vacation. I'd rate 3-stars but the response from Brenda on my concerns was so canned and un-emotional, that I can only rate 2 stars.
Great location, kind people, but a large lack of effort in upkeep on both the accommodations and the property which leads to a less than pleasant stay.
