About this property

Peaceful Waterfront Home, Swim & Boat from Dock, Near Ski Mountains, 4BR, 2 Ba

Offering the right mix of creature comfort and elegant simplicity, you'll enjoy this post and beam vacation home in all four seasons. It is located on an unspoiled Maine lake that offers excellent swimming, kayaking, fishing, and the prettiest mountain views. Windows, skylights, and a cathedral ceiling brighten with natural light, three sets of sliders connect to the outdoors, the open floor plan encourages family living, and bedrooms all have lake or woodland views. The house centers on a cozy wood stove, 2 lakeside decks, a screened dining porch, shoreline, and private dock.

Dining is easy whether you grill on the deck, picnic at the water’s edge, open a bottle of wine on the screened porch, or set the indoor table for 8. You’ll find everything you need in the fully stocked kitchen.

Renters are welcome to use our 4 kayaks and canoe.

Spring and Summer activities include swimming and fishing off the dock, boating, sailing, hiking, skiing, tubing, cycling, tennis, golf, and a front row seat to a display of loons, ospreys, eagles, herons, and ducks.

Autumn is outstanding. Enjoy all of the above with a backdrop of spectacular foliage. Don't miss the country fairs, apple festivals, & antique shows. Enjoy hammocking by day, and a warm fire at night.

Winter and Spring offer world-class skiing at Sunday River Ski Resort and family-friendly skiing at Mt Abram. Norway is the Snowshoe Capital of the World, take ours for a spin. The lake is your backyard so bring your skates, ice traps, and x-country skis. Snow mobile trails canvas the area.

2 ½ hours from Boston, you’ll enjoy this vacation home in all four glorious seasons.

The water is warm, the fish are plenty, and the loons are calling. Email us today!

Perfect family getaway

Such a great stay! The lake is beautiful and it is such a great perk to have the assortment of kayaks and canoe to use. We had a great time fishing both on the water and from the dock. The home is very roomy and comfortable, lots of movies, puzzles and games available. A great place to make memories with the family.

Peaceful Waterfront Vacation

Our family had a wonderful vacation stay at your home in Norway, Maine! The house was beautiful, spacious, and very clean. North Pond itself was lovely. It was a perfect, peaceful place to fish, kayak, and canoe. If I could rate it higher than 5 stars, I would. We loved it!!!

So Peaceful!

My husband and I stayed here for a long weekend in September. The property is lovely and offers many activities straight from the shore. We also found a bunch of nearby places to hike and a great amount of local restaurants. Paula is wonderful and communicates early and often after booking with instructions and suggestions on places to check out.

This was the third year that my family has vacationed here. The property is exactly as described. The owner has thought of everything. The house is beautiful, the pond is gorgeous and peaceful. My entire family has fallen in love with this annual vacation!

Perfect

If you're looking for a lovely, quiet place; on a lovely, quiet lake; in a lovely, quiet, friendly, little town in Maine, you'll be hard-pressed to find a spot that beats this one -- on each and every front. Like out of a dream.

Perfect for a family get togerther.

We rented the house for one week. We needed a place to stay while in the area for a wedding. Everything was just as the renter had posted. Very clean and well taken care of. Fall is a beautiful time of the year to visit this area. We enjoyed the pond! It was very peaceful. The house fit all our needs.The renters are excellent to work with. Thanks for the great memories! Hope we can stay again.

Wonderful Family Vacation

We had another wonderful stay at this lake house. It is so well appointed with a variety of boats, games, and everything you could once in the kitchen. I needed a potato masher and a garlic press and they were all there! From the fire pit outside to the woodburning stove in the living room, we enjoyed the loons, the deer, and the muskrat we found kayaking around the pond. What a wonderful place to bring a family for a long weekend. Comfortable beds, a large living room with an open kitchen, and the glorious screen porch for breakfast and dinners looking out on the lake. Our seven year old believes this is “his “cabin to go to in the summer.

A Perfect Week!

The house and lake exceeded our hopes. We had never been to Norway before, and were pleased to find everything was just as advertised or a little better. We had plenty of room for adult children and their significant others. Played lots of ping pong and pool, had campfires every night, kayaked every day. Bliss. Owners provided all the information we needed and were quick to answer questions.

taking the kids ice fishing

Wonderful spot for a kid's ice fishing trip! Walk right onto the ice to set traps and build a fire in the fire pit to watch the flags. Lots of action as the lake is full of largemouth bass. Our children had a blast chasing the flags! The house was roomie and easily accommodated our two familys. We would definitely repeat.

Even better than expected!

We were lucky enough to have a brief after Christmas vacation at the cabin. It was wonderful. We had two families (4 kids total) and it fit us with plenty of room to spare. We loved the basement which had foozball and pool and ping pong. We also took advantage of some ice fishing equipment-- we only caught a few but it entertained the kids all weekend long. Just a beautiful location and Paula was so kind and accomodating. I can't recommend it enough. We will be back!

Norway Ski & Skate Adventure

The property was great -- really enjoyed the layout of the house with the central fireplace and the view of the lake. My son really enjoyed sleeping in the top floor/loft area with a sky light directly above his bed -- he was able to fall asleep while literally gazing at the stars. Plenty of room for all and then some. We enjoyed a few days of skiing at Sunday River and some quiet time ice skating on the pond -- overall a wonderful few days in Maine!! Paula was very helpful with providing clear check-in/check-out instructions, and some recommendations as to restaurants in the area -- she was a great host! I would certainly return with my family to enjoy this property in any season!

We had a great time here again. Just one thing that may or may not be the norm now is that sheets / towels are not provided. That is an inconvenience but well communicated by the owner.

Great place to stay!!

We had a really nice stay at this North Pond house. Very comfortable, clean, and fun. Great open gathering area, great views of pond (frozen during our stay), nice wood stove, and good communications and instructions from the host. We were there for skiing at Mt. Abram & Sunday River and had a great time.

Peaceful relaxing fun!

The property was all I expected it to be. The home was clean and well cared for and located in a very peaceful neighborhood. We were able to kayak with the loons. The family time spent playing the games on site and creating beautiful puzzles was much needed! There were also many sites around the area to explore and hike. The hosts were very informative and a pleasure to work with, I would definitely rent this property again!

Amazing!! Great place to relax.

Loons, deer, eagles, fish, solitude and relaxation aplenty!! Awesome place for families to spend quality family time together. Remote enough to feel “away from it all” but close enough to local amenities. Kids loved the kayaks (and the adults loved them too)! Cottage was very homey and offered everything we would ever need! Loved it!

Great stay at the camp

We had a fabulous time.. Paula provided all the essentials to make a waterfront vacation very exciting. Plenty of kayaks, games, and places to lounge while enjoying the water and scenery. We accommodated 6 adults and 3 kids with room to spare. Very well worth the trip and stay at the camp. We plan to return next year.
