About this cottage rental
This quintessential Maine cottage is nestled among tall pines on the shore of desirable Keoka Lake, which, along with hikeable Mount Tire’m, was created by glacial activity 10,000 years ago. Keoka is a haven for fishing (brook trout, landlocked salmon, bass), paddling and boating, but it is quiet compared to the bigger lakes. The cabin itself is spacious, with 4 bedrooms (3 queen, 1 full, 2 twin), 2 bathrooms (shower only), full kitchen, living room and enclosed porch facing the water. The master bedroom and common areas are air conditioned, and there is a wood stove for chilly nights. Off the enclosed porch, there is a small deck with a propane grill. There is a waterside “patio” to the left of a gently sloped, private sandy water ingress, and a dock, where you can tie up the house canoe. Swimming it’s great for younger kids. My kids are 6 and 10 and I love that the water is fairly shallow until the end of the dock. For reference, my son is 6 and can stand until the end so I have a good guide of when to tell him to back up. It’s gradual too, not a steep drop off. And for toddlers, there is plenty of room to splash around near the sandy beach. The property includes a fire pit and a hammock. This property is stunning, and serves both as a retreat and a base camp for exploring southern Maine. Here, you are less than 30 minutes away from Sunday River (and Bethel), Shawnee Peak, Mount Pleasant Ski Area, and Oxford Casino; less than 20 minutes away from the picturesque towns of Norway, Bridgton and Harrison, which feature more lakes and most of the area’s best restaurants, cafes and breweries; and less than 10 minutes from Mount Tire’m, Hawk Mountain, McWain Pond, Bear Pond, Long Lake, Crystal Lake, and Bear Mountain Inn. The property is about an hour away from Portland (and Portland restaurants), Storyland in Glen, NH, and Santa's Village in Jefferson, NH.
