It's a set of four cabins set up for weekly rental…read more The lake is clean and clear with hardly any boats - each cabin comes with a rowboat and for the adventuresome, they'll give you running lights to go out on the pond at night - perfect for viewing the Milky Way on a clear night.( it's far enough from the city so there is no light pollution). It's in a grove of pine trees, and from the picture window I could see Osprey, Eagles, Herons, and loons. This place would be ideal if you were a self-contained family with young kids that wanted face time and easy activities. At night you could not hear even one internal combustion engine, but the loons kicked up around 3 a.m. - fantastic!. The sheets were clean, the kitchen was well stocked with cooking supplies though you need to bring your own food. it does have plumbing and hot water. I didn't use the fieldstone fireplace but it would be a fine way to spend the evening. the folks at the next cabin used the outdoor fire ring.

Perfect lake cottages. Clean, comfortable, pet friendly.... You will be back year after year!…read more Angell Cove Cottages has been my "Go To" vacation spot for several years. The location is ideal if you want a relaxing, quiet, beautiful, pristine, and tranquil setting for your Maine trip. Its location is ideal for day trips for shopping in Freeport, sightseeing, and trips to the coast. You can go boating, fishing, and swimming right from your front door. The cottages are clean, well stocked, safe, and beautifully decorated. Each cottage has a grill, well stocked kitchen with utensils and pots and pans ready for every need from burgers to lobsters! They also provide recreational equipment for fishing, swimming, kayaking, canoeing, and just chilling out on the lawn, in the houseboat, on the dock, or in a hammock under the trees. Don't be surprised if you see the same vacationers each year.... it is "How Life Should Be" in Maine.

More time for relaxing in a hammock! We hiked around the grounds, found the well-stocked self-service game shed, horseshoes, badminton nets. Also self-service canoe/kayaks/lifejackets. Plenty of chairs by the shore for looking at the view. We took a canoe over to one of the bigger islands for a picnic lunch. The next day we kayaked over to another island where an eagle nest had been reported. We enjoyed swimming at the beach. Be sure to bring water shoes as there are some freshwater clams living here. I truly felt like I was finally on vacation when we were all sitting by the shore of the lake at sunset, listening to the loons sing, with fellow campers playing guitar. Kids were playing by the swings waiting for the campfire to be ready for marshmallows. I wish I could have stayed longer. This place is well taken care of, very friendly hosts. They allow well-behaved pets too, which was nice for our new pup.

You can paddle down to the Village Tie Up for your morning coffee, lunch, snack and/or favorite adult beverage :) Watch out for the loons on the water. They will definitely mesmerize you with their beauty and haunting call! There are two bars within walking distance. A mini mart and the Villlage Tie Up.

My wife and I rented this house to share with our neighbors for the week. It is one of the more…read moreexpensive rentals on the island, but totally worth it. This property is actually the owner Jeannie's own house most of the year, and is decorated very comfortably, and there are lots of books. Location, location, location...the house is sited on a great part of the island, and is very private. The house comfortably sleeps eight (plus two more on the couches if needed) and is divided into two areas - the main floor and kitchen with an upstairs master bedroom/bathroom, and the downstairs with it's own bedrooms, kitchen and bathroom. There is a full sized washer/dryer both upstairs and downstairs. This is a very convenient arrangement for two families! While we were there, Maine had some record-breaking hot weather, and even though the house has no A/C, we were pleasantly surprised that the house stayed cool and comfortable. There are lots of windows and ceiling fans, and the house is sited well to catch the breezes. The noise from the ocean at night was terrific for sleeping. The deck is awesome. We spent 90% of our time there sitting on the deck enjoying the specatular view of the shore, boats, cliffs and light houses. The site is far enough from "down front" (the downtown area of shops and restaurants) that a bike or golf cart rental might be a good idea for some, though we walked everywhere. A walk, around the perimeter is about 4.5 miles, and we did that several times. We love Peaks and are going back next year. We did go to Portland on the ferry for dinner one night, but we really did not need to do that as there is a lot to do and see on the island. There are four restaurants and a food truck (Millie's, which actually has the best food), and even a neat little grocery store (which also sells liquor and beer). Even though it's easy to take the ferry, and we really don't live that far from Portland, once you are on the island it feels like you are well away from everything and it is very relaxing. The owner and the property are pet-friendly and the only downside is that we did not bring our dog. Next year we will do that. (We were happy to see that there were lots and lots of dogs vacationing there with their people). Jean Ashmore, the owner, is charming and friendly, and she met me at the ferry so I could follow her to the house. It is a bit off the beaten path down a dirt road, but GPS can find it, and there are good maps of the island available for free from the realty companies along the road to the ferry landing. Leaving the island can be an adventure, so plan ahead and leave early. The ferry holds about 12 cars on each hourly trip. Saturday morning there were a couple of dozen cars in line to leave and it was backed up from morning until afternoon, which made me nervous about how early I needed to be there on Sunday morning. Our rental was Sunday to Sunday, and the traffic leaving on Sunday was much lighter than on Saturday - I did not make the 0815 ferry as there were a dozen cars waiting in front of me, but I was one of the first to board the second one at 0945! I don't know if Saturday's are always that much of a zoo - but I was glad we did not have to leave until Sunday morning. Make sure to have a ferry schedule handy as it's usually every hour at 15 minutes before the hour, but on Sundays it's a bit different (note the times above).

Once we found Bayview Cabins, we were hooked! Our family continues to grow, so we each get a cabin. We ALL look forward to our vacation here every year. The owners Steve & Sherri make us all feel so comfortable, genuinely sweet people who work hard at keeping the place up. This summer my mother & I decided to take my 90yr old grandmother, who is wheelchair bound, away for a mini- vacation. From the moment we arrived, I was blown away at how handicap accessible Steve & Sherri had made our cabin (12 A&B). Steve came right outside, got wheelchair chair ramps for us, had already put up handicap handles in the shower and on the toilet. Each cabin I've been in, is always so clean. So neat. They have cute signs up that make them feel "homey". And my Gram especially liked the hanging plant in front of our cabin. Me & my entire family HIGHLY recommend this getaway!!!

This place was SOO convenient to everything around, several restaurants, shops and bars are in walking distance.

They provided a paddle boat, a row boat, a canoe and several tubes for us, which was really nice. The main building has an ice machine and free coffee.

They are located across the street from the local beach on beautiful Sebago Lake. This is the kind of place you will NOT need a cottage key to lock up. They were surprised when we requested for one. Note: If you're driving up and plan to stay, please read their website carefully so that you can pack accordingly. My family and I flew in for a weeks vacation and did not realize they do not offer: Toilet Paper or Shower Towels. Luckily the little general store next door has most household items. They also require you to do most of the cottage cleaning prior to check out- which was at an early 9:30am! We had lots of privacy, use of the camp fire, free admission to the beach. To sum it up, we had a great time and saved some cashing staying here!
