We had a lovely stay. The bed was comfy and we planned for no oven so meals were simple. This made more time for fishing. An anglers paradise for sure.

We loved our stay! Adam’s Pond is beautiful, we even saw a bald eagle fly by several times! The house was great, with several outdoor spaces to spend time in. We loved using the grill and firepit when it was cooler at night. The neighbors were fairly close, so our dog was unable to roam as far as we might have liked, but overall it didn’t impact our stay. A lovely spot for a long weekend!

If you’re looking for a tranquil and relaxed getaway on the water, look no further. We extended our trip because it was so beyond perfect. There were kayaks available to enjoy a soothing ride on the lake and enjoy the views. Our four legged friend enjoyed jumping onto the small beach area and running around the yard getting his exercise.

We absolutely LOVED getting to stay here for the long weekend. The place was cozy and absolutely gorgeous, the views from every room are incredible. There are instructions and information posted everywhere you need so you never even need to message the host. Best part is dog friendly, and our dogs had a blast!! We were even lucky enough to have great weather and got to take out the kayaks that were provided. 10/10 experience and we definitely want to stay here again!

Allan and team were incredibly responsive and very friendly. The cabin was perfect, from the enclosed porch overlooking the lake, the beautiful upper and lower decks, the dock where fishing was great, the kayaks and canoe, and the nearby trails with views of (still) snow-capped Mt Washington, our family got everything we needed from this quick trip up to Maine.

Great view and cabin was actually clean. Peaceful week on the lake. The area was fun. Found the alpaca farm open in the weekend close by and got to feed them. Picked the best apples we’ve ever had at Libbys U Pik not far from cabin. Shopped at the Limerick market and found Shaines of Maine icecream. Tried Black Rasberry and Grapenut yummy on both. They had lots of other specialty items. Fried chicken was great too. Also shopped close by at the Ye Old Sale Shop and found some wonderful vintage treasures. Had a great time at the cabin and surrounding area. Would totally come back this summer to get on the lake in the kayaks when its warmer and have another great week. The porch is the ultimate lake porch. The cats and ourselves thoroughly enjoyed the lake view all week Thank you for a wonderful vacation.

Response:
Thank you for your lovely review Kathryn! We’re so glad you enjoyed the peaceful lake views, and all the wonderful local attractions – from the alpaca farm to Shain’s of Maine ice cream. It sounds like you made the most of your time, and we’re thrilled the porch was a favorite for both you and your cats. We’d love to welcome you back this summer for kayaking and another fantastic stay! 🐱

I wish we could have had more time to really enjoy the lake but it was beautiful!!!

Thank you so much Sara! Hopefully we can have the opportunity to host you again in the future 🙂

I searched for Kennebunkport stays and AirBnb made it seem like this was close. The view is beautiful but the house needs updates, didn’t even have pot holders and necessary cooking utensils and is such a drive to everywhere. I wouldn’t stay here alone because it’s so remote. The twin bed rooms have awful mattresses. So much so that I slept in the other room with my mom who is a snorer!!! Please replace the mattresses and kitchen and dining ware. Overall it’s a pretty view but it’s just massively overpriced for what you get and for the drive time to other locations in Maine.
Host was responsive and provided all info in a prompt manner.

Response:
Caroline, thank you for your feedback! We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the beautiful view and appreciated our prompt communication. We understand that mattresses are a very personal choice, and while we’ve received positive feedback from other guests throughout the season, we’ll certainly take your comments into account. Every season, we make updates and improvements, and the 2025 season will be no exception. We also appreciate your input on the kitchen and dining ware, and will review those items for future enhancements. Thank you again for sharing your thoughts!

You pay for the view! Absolutely beautiful location, property, and scenery. The house would benefit from an appliance refresh, but what is provided gets the job done. The cabin itself has it’s quirks, but the property is a good space for a small group.
At no fault of house owner/management, a power outtage interrupted our stay. While I completely understand it was beyond their control, they did not have a generator to help bring back electricity (and therefore running water). Neighbors on the street did have theirs running.
If you’re looking for a quiet place with great views and outdoor access, this is the place for you.

Response:
Thank you for your thoughtful review Michael! We’re so glad you enjoyed the beautiful location and the stunning views. We appreciate your feedback about the appliances and will certainly look into updating them. We also understand how inconvenient the power outage was, and we apologize for that disruption. While it’s true that we didn’t have a generator, we’re always looking for ways to improve our guests’ experiences. It’s great to hear that the property worked well for your group, and we hope to welcome you back for another peaceful and scenic stay!

We recently stayed at this charming lakefront cottage, and it was absolutely delightful! The location was perfect and quiet, with stunning views of the lake right from the porch. The cottage itself was cozy, making it the perfect retreat for relaxation and the hosts were very responsive. We loved spending our mornings sipping coffee by the water or on the upper deck. If you’re looking for a peaceful getaway, this is a perfect place!

Response:
Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Stacey! We’re thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the cozy atmosphere and stunning lake views. It sounds like you made the most of your mornings!

We had a great stay! It was nice to be able to bring our two pups along. The views were wonderful and the cabin was nice and cozy. There isn’t a ton of stuff in the immediate area, but it’s very accessible to a lot of stuff. We loved the short hike up Knox Mountain too. Great place to stay if you’re looking for quiet, simple, and calm.

Response:
Thank you, Lauren! We’re thrilled to hear you had a great stay and enjoyed the cozy cabin with your pups. It sounds like you had a lovely time exploring the views and hiking Knox Mountain. We appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back for another peaceful getaway!

The lake is what you pay for with this cottage. Between the cost and the representation in the photos we were expecting something a little more grand. It was very clean but older. There is no microwave. It is not stated in the description that there is or isn’t one but in 2024 we assumed there was a microwave. It’s about a 20 minute or more drive for any type of decent sized place to get food. The floor also sounds like you’re sticking to it every step you take in the kitchen and living room off the rug. Overall, this place had its quirks and we laughed about them, got over it, and had a nice time. We went out on the lake in the canoe and sat down by the lake on the patio and enjoyed breakfast. There were absolutely no bugs at all which was lovely. We went in September. We drove over to Freeport to check out the L.L. Bean flagship store then drove down the coast and had the best lobster roll at Mabel’s in Kennebunkport. Not a bad stay just different than expected for the price.

Response:
Jenn, thank you for your review! We’re glad you enjoyed the lake and had some fun despite the quirks. We’ll definitely take your feedback about the microwave and floor noise into consideration. It sounds like you had some great adventures nearby, too! We hope you’ll come back for another memorable stayl!

We had a relaxing peaceful time. Beds were not great….could be better mattresses.
Lake front was fun! Bon fire great and plenty of seating for everyone to eat and relax

Response:
Thank you for your feedback Susan! We’re glad to hear you had a relaxing and peaceful time, and that you enjoyed the lakefront and bonfire setup. We appreciate your comments about the mattresses and will definitely look into improving that aspect for our guests’ comfort. We hope to welcome you back for another enjoyable stay! Enjoy the Fall season 🙂
