This was such a wonderful, quiet retreat. The little cottage by a pond was down a rocky, dirt road, with twists and bends that led through the woods. Leigh, the owner, had told me it was rather remote, so I was prepared. The cottage was a bit rustic but comfortable and well stocked, as described. Cell phone and internet services were fine. The view of the pond from the porch is so lovely and peaceful. Two loons stayed busy calling each other and a pair of bald eagles were often seen. This property is close enough to easily get to local restaurants, grocery and drug stores. There are wonderful day trips to make to nearby towns, White Lake State Park, and the White Mountains. The coast of Maine was even a day trip for us. Leigh responded quickly to my questions and was eager to make me feel comfortable. This was a great get-away.

This is a quiet place to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life. My husband and I only saw 2 other people (as they went by in their boat) the entire time we were there. House was under construction (I knew this when i booked) but remained usable in every aspect (just as the host said it would). Host is very responsive and pleasant to communicate with. Can't wait to go back again.

We chose the cottage since I vacationed with my family there as a young child and it did not disappoint. Crystal clear water, awesome beach, lots to do in the water…teens were playing for hours! The cottage was wonderful, well stocked with lots of finishing touches and loved the large screen porch overlooking the lake. A perfect week and lots of family memories made! Thank you so much!

Wonderfully Private Cabin
Wonderfully Private Cabin
We arrived at night to this cabin and although we knew it was private and down a long narrow road we never expected it to be a mile and a half down a narrow road going 5-10 mph. I say that not to scare you but to tell you so you don’t feel lost finding this hidden treasure. It’s worth it. So peaceful. We were also able to get our large SUV and 6’x10’ trailer down the driveway, so don’t think it’s too remote. There was the singing of the loon, the festive lights on the large screened in porch and the unbelievably clear lake to just melt away all the world’s stress. Plenty of beds. We are a family of 7 and didn’t use two of the beds. It was nice having a TV area upstairs for the big kids and TV area on the main floor for the smaller ones since we had rain straight for two days with the hurricane passing through. It was also a plus having two refrigerators. No A/C but plenty of fans everywhere and the nights get pretty cool. Sitting on the porch overlooking the lake for all our meals was wonderful. Although this is called a pond I would call it a lake. Very nice size. Nice beach area for the little ones and shallow water for them to swim and then a nice dock to jump off and deeper water for the bigger kids. Leigh was very easy to get a hold of and responded quickly to all our questions. We enjoyed the Pizza Barn two different nights that is very close and the grocery store and gas stations are also very close. A very enjoyable experience.

The cottage, is the perfect place to spend a week away. Located completely off the beaten path. This little spot has it all. Great beach with clear and sandy bottom. Fully equipped kitchen, wifi, smart tv.. and many beds for guests. The screen porch is huge, with plenty of seating, and a wonderful view to the pond. Large gas grill, and a fire pit to enjoy fun evenings making s'mores. The sounds of loons and frogs will lull you to sleep. Absolutely no neighbors, either next to, or across the pond from you. We loved it so much ,we booked it for next year, while we were still there!!!!!
