Private Waterfront 2BR, 2BA on Hosmer Pond
About this house rental
Located in Camden, this lovely house for $425 per night is a great choice for your next vacation. Bluebell cottage is full of Mid-Century rustic Maine charm! There are 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths, vaulted ceiling living room, open to the kitchen and an enclosed porch with a twin bed and wicker seating for lounging. Step into Maine with this private home nestled in the poetic mid-coast woodland, on one of the most beautiful and inviting ponds. The kitchen, dining, living and main bedroom have majestic water views. The bedrooms have new pine floors, and fresh bright and cheerful decor to lift your spirits. You can listen for loon calls in the morning, as the pond is thriving with wildlife. Go fishing from the private dock or take a paddle board out to the island. Kayak or canoe around the 53 acre pond. The water warms up nicely for swimming. The deck also overlooks the pond, great for a peaceful cup of coffee in the morning, with a propane grill, wood fired grill and dining area for 6 guests. The kitchen is fully stocked. Come enjoy s'mores over the fire pit to welcome the evening! The mountain behind the cottage has endless hiking trails, including the ski slopes with ocean views. Camden and Rockport harbors are a 10 minute drive away. Notes: Duration: The town of Camden requires a minimum of 7 nights for private short term rentals. You are welcome to book for longer, but only in 7 night increments. Saturday is the check in and check out day. Children: Children are welcome, however, the cottage isn't baby or child proof. The cabinets don't have locks and there is no fence around the pond. Accessibility: The walkway to the cottage from the parking area is pea stone gravel and there are 7 steps. You can roll your luggage over the lawn, but will need to carry your luggage for approximately 20 feet and over the steps. The path to the dock is also uneven ground. Please be careful, especially when it is wet out.

Comfortable, relaxed environment to be enjoying the serenity of the pond, and amenities of home like environment. Enjoyed time with family, proximity to points of interest, and great seafood. A great way to experience this part of the country.

We had a super time at Heather’s home. She went above and beyond to make us (and our pups) feel comfortable and enjoy our vacation. Beautiful setting with a cozy home that offers many options to relax and appreciate the outdoors! We would love to go again.

Our family had a nice stay on Hosmer Pond. The house was clean and very well appointed. It was refreshing not to have to run to store for every spice or first aid need. And having the canoe, kayaks and paddle boards on property is a huge bonus. Heather was very responsive to our questions and offered helpful suggestions. Other than some cars passing on other side of pond, it’s very quiet. Not criticisms but just some notes for prospective renters: there is a drop off from property to pond of a couple feet. This really only mattered to our 11 year old hound who could not find access to wade or swim (he’s too old to jump off dock). Also, if you like sun, the dock only catches it from sunrise to 8 AM-ish (at least in late August). The property gets its share of sunshine, it’s just the dock that is shady, which may be preferable to some. Also, certainly a seasonal issue, but watch out for aggressive bees. My 23 year old got stung our 2nd day there (and on his birthday no less!). Not allergic but his leg stayed pretty swollen for a few days. All of us had our encounters to the point where a couple of us avoided hanging out on the deck. We would definitely love to stay there again in the future.

Bluebell Cottage lived up to its description and more. Unfortunately, we didn’t meet Heather in person but texted her some questions which she promptly replied to. Although an unusually rainy season for Maine, our weather was mainly good (with only a few showers). We thoroughly enjoyed our week at the cottage…swimming, kayaking and fishing (I landed a good-sized largemouth bass on my first cast from the dock!). But above all, we enjoyed the quiet and serenity, occasionally pleasantly broken by cries of a pair of beautiful loons, which traveled closely past the cottage with their young chick. The cottage was super clean and Heather offered all the amenities plus some, like a heat pump with a/c on warm days and heat when it became quite cool, as is typical in Maine. Nice touches throughout, with Heather’s interior design and beautiful flowers outside. In the woods on a small, quiet lake but very close to Camden/Rockport, with all that those coastal villages offer - - including delicious lobster! Definitely hope to return!

The Bluebell Cottage was just perfect! As soon as we walked in we felt so comfortable--like walking into the home of a close friend and being welcomed with open arms. It had the perfect amount of space and was so quaint and cozy. Heather, thought of absolutely everything to make her guests feel completely comfortable and at ease.
This year has been extremely hard and painful for us as we have experience a very painful loss in our family. This has been our first chance to get away to breathe, relax and heal. The Blue Bell Cottage was the perfect setting for us to do nothing but relax and rest. It's also very close to so many hikes and adorable Camden is just minutes away. Plus there is the added bonus of looking out at the gorgeous pond. I truly can't say enough about this wonderful place!

My parents and I stayed here for a week with our family dog. Communication with Heather was fantastic- from booking and throughout our stay. The cabin was spotless and so comfortably appointed in every room. Little touches all throughout- cozy blankets, binoculars in the sunroom for wildlife sightings, a pantry with loads of spices, and dog treats and puppy wipes at the entrance.
Heather was wonderful and gracious with providing some local recommendations. We loved every second of our stay at this cabin and hope to come back next year.

This was a wonderful property to stay at. I stayed there with my boyfriend and daughter and husband and child (9 months old). It was close to Camden and had a beautiful lake right outside the door. I am looking forward to staying there again next year!! Thank you, Heather for a very peaceful and beautiful week!!!

This a very comfortable, beautifully decorated cottage on very lovely small pond in Camden, therefore close to many other activities in the area although it is difficult to leave this idyllic spot.
Heather was the most responsive host we have had in our many home stays. We had no serious issues but she was quick to respond to our questions.
Kayaking on this quiet pond early in the morning was exquisite. The Cornell birdsong identifying app, Merlin, named many singers plus hummingbirds were regular visitors to the lovely garden.
The kitchen is very well equipped and the deck was a perfect place to entertain friends..
The pièce de résistance for me was the daybed on the pretty porch.. sleeping there with loons calling was wonderful. The porch is very comfortable and has a very nice view of the pond.
An important detail to us during this unusually hot July was that the bedrooms have air conditioners.. oh, and how nice to have a big laundry room.. unusual in Maine cottages.
We will definitely be back so I almost hate to report about how perfect it is.

Lovely place
I’ve stayed at many rental properties, and this is one of the best. The cottage is clean, comfortable, well equipped, and beautifully decorated. It felt like a home rather than a rental. And the lake is magical. We would come back in a heartbeat.

Peaceful pond with beautiful fall views!
My husband and I stayed at Bluebell cottage during the second week in October. The pond view was absolutely beautiful. The location of the home is perfectly located near Camden and Rockland. The house itself was well appointed, very clean and very comfortable. We had everything we needed during our stay. Our host was very accessible and quick to respond when we had a problem with the lock.
A very nice property. We hope to return.

This property was everything it said it was. Wonderful lake view and easy access to the water. Private and quiet. Can get on the lake with canoes, paddleboards. The home was wonderful. Great light, comfortable beds and pillows. We bought the pillows, we loved them so much. Close to town, but just far enough away.

It's a Beautiful, roomy, and comfortably furnished cottage. The sleeper porch (has a bed) was a welcome and relaxing feature. The king master bed felt incredible and the kitchen/ pantry was very well stocked. fishing was lively in the lake and being less than 10 minutes from any store that you could possibly need was convenient to say the least. Heather was a great host; very accessible and friendly. For wildlife lovers there are ample chipmunks, a beaver family, birds of all types (complete with a nesting loon family and chicks while we were there at least), and deer. We had zero problem with any biting insects which is a first in my experience. We're happy to have been her first renters and would highly recommend!
