As you step inside, you'll be greeted by a warm and cozy atmosphere. The main floor features a well-appointed living area with comfortable seating, perfect for relaxing and unwinding after a day of adventure.

One of the highlights of this lakeside retreat is its proximity to the water. Just steps away from the house, you'll find yourself on the edge of the glistening lake.

For those who love water activities, this Airbnb offers an exciting perk. Canoes and kayaks are available for guests to use, allowing you to explore the tranquil lake at your own pace.

But the fun doesn't end there! Venture downstairs to the ground floor, where a complete game room awaits. Challenge your friends and family to a friendly game of ping pong or compete for high scores on the classic Pac-Man arcade machine. Try your hand at skeeball and relish in the nostalgia of an old-school arcade experience. The 50-inch smart TV offers entertainment options for movie nights or catching up on your favorite shows. Additionally, a comfortable sleeper sofa provides extra sleeping space if needed.

As you open the double doors in the game room, you'll step out onto a small landing that feels like your own private landing. Take a moment to breathe in the fresh air, bask in the sun, or simply soak in the breathtaking views of the lake. It's the perfect spot to unwind, connect with nature, and create lasting memories.

Whether you're seeking relaxation or adventure, this Airbnb offers the best of both worlds. With its rustic lake house feel, convenient access to the water, and a fantastic game room, it's an ideal getaway for families, groups of friends, or anyone looking for a serene lakeside retreat.

Die Lage dieses Hauses ist absolut genial. Der direkte Zugang und Blick zum See ist wunderbar, ein idealer Ort zum Entspannen. Das Haus selbst bringt viele Annehmlichkeiten mit, wie z.B. das Spielzimmer. Es hat den Charme und alle Vor- und Nachteile eines schon etwas älteren Hauses, mir persönlich hat das sehr gefallen. Was man sich bewusst sein sollte ist, dass das Leitungswasser in einem Haus am See aufgrund der Minaralien anders riechen kann.

Our stay during family weekend at UMaine visiting with our son was Fantastic! The lake front home was perfect for our family weekend up in Orono Maine. The paddles boards came in good use with my kids. The game room was a huge hit! The host was very responsive. We had tons of fun and created great memories.

The house had not been cleaned from the previous guests, so we had to sleep on dirty sheets and use dirty towels until the cleaner finally showed up on day two. The well is contaminated and smells so bad of rotten eggs that you have to hold your breath to take a shower. You absolutely cannot drink this water and will have to bring your own. The beds are all very old, totally worn out, and creak with every movement. There are no closets in any bedroom, or anywhere in the house, so there is no where to put your clothes. There is one dresser in the hall for the 3 upstairs bedrooms, which are all too small to actually have a dresser. Other than the game room, which is nice, everything in the house was bought at a Dollar store. Cheap metal stools and chairs, worn out couch, a $10 outdoor matte for a rug, junk kitchen tools. The linens, when they finally brought clean ones, are so thin they are almost see through. Weeds growing through the front stairs, and just a general lack of maintenance

Kitchen was well stocked. Kids loved the game room! We also loved the use of canoes. Wished they had a washer/dryer, but it was a very pleasant stay. Host answered questions right away. Loved our stay here.

The views were breathtaking and the setting was peaceful. If being by and in the water is your jam, then this is the place for you! Eating breakfast in the sun room was a highlight, and fishing off the rocky point. The use of paddle boards and kayaks is an added plus! Although the rooms are small, there are four of them which is nice for sleeping arrangements. Our kiddos loved the downstairs game room. There is plenty of space and things to do at this lakeside retreat.

The house and lake was beautiful! Beds were extremely comfortable and everything was very clean. It was also great having the game room downstairs and kayaks/paddle boards/a canoe outside to use. The host was very responsive and messaged back quickly. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to come back next year!

We had a wonderful stay at this location! The rooms were smaller but perfect for our family with 5 younger children - everyone had their own relaxing place to stay and sleep. The house was clean and bright and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to cook mealsThe lake was absolutely beautiful and relaxing to sit by early in the morning and while the sun set. The kids loved using the paddle boards that were provided. They also thoroughly enjoyed the game room. We loved our stay!
