We’re still trying to adjust to life in South Florida again, but we keep dreaming of Maine and all its wonders. We thoroughly enjoyed the house and had a terrific time at the lake. We swam, fished, canoed, and picked wild blueberries and raspberries down at the edge of the water. In the evenings we would sit by the fire, roast marshmallows and then step outside to watch the night sky filled with thousands of stars. Though we’ve stayed in other houses in Maine, your house is in a wonderful location and so comfortable. Our favorite activity is to pack a lunch and to go sit on the rock ledge by the lake where we picnic, swim, canoe, and fish. Afterwards we finish our day with a scoop of ice cream at Round Pond. We also explored the different peninsulas, ate lobster rolls (repeatedly), and enjoyed every second of the cool weather. Damariscotta is a lovely little town as are so many in the surrounding area.

We have stayed in this home 3 times over the past 12 years and it doesn't disappoint. The woodsy setting is unique to a "lakefront" home and the large grass yard is great. McCurdy Pond is beautiful and quiet, especially this time of the year. The home had everything that we needed, but could use a little maintenance and upkeep. The kitchen utensils were a bit lacking and there could be more seating in the main living room based on the number of guests that can be accommodated. Several of the lightbulbs in the home need/needed replaced and during heavy rain on Saturday evening, there was a minor leak from one of the skylight windows in the upstairs queen bedroom, which made its way (possibly) to the closet in the first floor master. Again, the home was clean and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and would certainly stay here again and recommend to others.

We were so happy to be back at McCurdy Pond after several years away. It’s so peaceful, with great swimming, paddling and just reading lakeside! And near to the ocean too. The house is great. I even got to enjoy the walk down to the water—a well maintained mossy path. My only complaint was with VRBO, which blocked my access to the owner’s check-in instructions and wifi password, causing me to have to call on arrival ( which was immediately answered).

Our family had a lovely time at this property. The lake was great with a few little islands and rocks that were fun to paddle board around. There was a window unit air conditioner I’m not sure if it was listed, but it was definitely appreciated. And I t’s true the walk to the lake is a little long and winding, but it’s also beautiful! We would visit again.

This property was very clean upon our arrival and appears well-kept. Furniture is in good repair and comfortable as are the beds. There is no air conditioning upstairs but there are fans. The kitchen area is small but served our needs well and it is well-equipped. With all the torrential rains this summer the path to the lake was a bit mushy in places but all of us thought the path was beautiful and enjoyed the short walk to the lake. The swimming at the lake was even better than we expected. There is a lovely large rock to sit on but there is also a very nice gradual, sandy entrance to the lake. There are some reeds, if you are squeamish about such things, but we loved the swimming and stayed in the water for hours. It's a beautiful, quiet lake/pond and the fishing was good. A great vacation!

Wonderfully private property and lovely trail (3 min) down to the lake where we canoed, fished and swam. The rock has a natural seat and there is a bench there but an additional one or some chairs would have been perfect. The loon calls were so peaceful, think it was my favorite part of our trip. The house was comfortable and spacious for our family of five and two dogs. The back steps off the deck might be a bit steep for senior guests. Really loved the fire pit and picked up some local firewood for $2 a bucket down the road. Would love to stay here again.
