Each unit has its own outside deck with lake view.
All offer 400' of water front offering a large beach, docks, canoe, kayaks, gazebo, and fire pit.
This is a family owned compound since the 1950's. You may have an opportunity to meet many family members at the common area beach as we also love to use the water facilities.

About the host
Hosted by jennifer manter
Unique to this property is a sandy beach, one of very few on the lake. Several islands make for exploration and paint ball wars or even an overnight sleeping bag time.
Located less than 10 miles from interstate 95 allows for easy access to other parts of Maine.
Bar Harbor, Booth Bay Harbor, Sugar Loaf Mountain, the Forks, Bangor and Portland Malls, Fort Knox and many water falls all within one hour and half drive.

Why they chose this property
This property is on the south western side of Snow Pond at the largest part and very quiet end of the lake.
This is also shallower part of lake allowing for warmer summer waters. The large sandy beach is great for kids.
The shallow waters by the dock make for great kids playing and safety. The floating dock allows older kids (all ages) plenty of playtime for diving and cannon balls.
The Belgrade stream is directly across the lake which offers exceptionally renown fishing in the state of Maine. Records have been set here!
