About this property

Pelicans Bog on Woods Pond in Middleboro minutes from MBTA to Boston.

Centrally located in Middleboro, this 3 bedroom house on Woods Pond is in a private community. Enjoy the massively spacious out door space while you fish directly off your private dock in the water. Kayak the pond with 2 tandem kayaks provided. Enjoy breezy dinners on the elevated deck overlooking the pond. There is an Air Hockey table located just off the basement bonus room or the foosball table inside. A dedicated large office space fully equipped and minutes to MBTA 1 hour to Boston.

Located on Woods Pond, the large private lot gives you one thing most lake houses don't have, privacy. You are not packed with neighbors right on top of you. Plenty of room to stretch out. Be advised, this house requires a lot of climbing. It was built in the 1930's and the stairs to the bedrooms have a little lean to them and coming down the stairs, taller people may have to duck a little. The stairs going down to the basement are even steeper with more head clearance issues. But it's worth it. This place is a unicorn. So many different beautiful things on the 8,367 square foot lot. Getting down to the lake and back up to the house is approximately 2 stories.

We have created a public facebook page with the same name as a place for us to dump pictures other than listing pictures so you can get more of a sense of how it is to spend time there.

Take full advantage of the pond with 2 tandem kayaks provided. Easily convert to a single rider. Two inflatable rings to enjoy by the small beach area off one of the two lower decks. Enjoy beautiful sunsets by the fire while you swing gently away on the bench swing. There is also a single swing and tree swing over the water. Four life jackets are on site, two adult size and two children sized. Two fishing pools and some various gear are provided. There are 5 market umbrellas and many quaint areas to sit. The outdoor dining area has remote control lights from the house. A propane gas grille is also provided.

There is a higher end foosball table in the basement and an air hockey table in the shed located off the basement.

Although it looks like this house sleeps more than six, we have to cap the occupancy because of the septic system. We provide plenty of toilet paper, dish soap, and dishwasher detergent that is septic safe and we really need guests to use these items. Misusing or overusing the water or flushing things that don't belong in septics tanks run the risk of ruining your stay. It's imperative to be wastewater conscience here. For that reason, no extra guests or visitors are allowed for these reasons. Specific questions? Please ask promptly.

This sprawling complex has its limitations for people with limited mobility. The parking area to the house has no stairs and once you're in the house, the bathroom is on the main level. The pull out queen sofa bed uses a Bobopedic mattress. To get to the outdoor dining area is just 3 steps down and then one more step to flat ground. This would be the only scenario where people with limited mobility could be accommodated and still enjoy this amazing house.

There is space for 2 cars on each side of the house. The side with the heavy pitch (leads to basement door) is where the septic tank is, only use that space to park if absolutely necessary. There is absolutely no street parking.

This house is well water and passed board of health testing on April 24, 2024.

Awesome location and host

It was very easy to book. We drove up from down south and realized we were a day ahead of schedule. The host let us check in early. When we arrived, the place was awesome! Better location, and better appointed, than we even expected. Nicely decorated, plenty of blankets and silverware and kitchen utensils and bathroom necessities, etc. Looks like it would be a blast in the summer, with tandem kayaks and fishing rods and lots of deck spaces. Would definitely book again.
