About this property

Peaceful Lakefront Cottage

Four-season waterfront cottage with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a screened-in porch overlooking quiet Highland Lake. Cottage is recently renovated and open concept. Bedrooms are one queen, two twins, and an upstairs bedroom with three twin beds and an attached full bathroom. Amenities include basic cable, internet, Netflix, laundry, dishwasher, gas fireplace, grill, dock, canoe, and two kayaks. Sandy association beach is just a few houses away with gradual entry to water – great for swimming with kids. Also has a private boat launch.

Short distance to downtown Bridgton for indoor theater complex, drive-in, restaurants, and shops. Nearby trails for hiking, snowmobiling and skiing. Family-friendly ski area, Shawnee Peak, is only 10 minutes away. 45 minutes to North Conway for outlet shopping, 45 minutes to Sunday River. Golf course and tennis courts nearby.

Updated Camp on Highland Lake

Nice "roomy" camp , with beautiful view of Highland Lake, Bridgton ME. Kayaks & canoe gives access to lake from a nice dock with ladder., but no sandy beach entrance. ( short walk to sand beach) Quite shaded with lots of pine trees, and no sunset views, but sunrise views are beautiful! We enjoyed our stay here and hope to return sometime.

Fishing/ kayaking

Just roll out of bed, listen to the loon, grab your rod and catch a few. Later swim, kayak to sponge island, rinse and repeat. Our ten year old twins thought it was heaven. Everything you could need was there. Very clean, smartly arranged with a great view of the lake. We’d go again in a heartbeat.

Beautiful Lakeside Cabin

There are not enough words to describe this cottage and setting. You have your own private dock and waterfront, full screened in deck, a deck with a grill, kayaks and canoe provided, secluded yet within 13 minutes of town. Weve stayed in Bridgton before but this is by far our favorite. Chris, the owner, was very communicative and accommodating. My only complaint, and this is only me, was the firmness of the bed in the primary bedroom. All the other beds were very comfy. The gas stove in the living area was key as it provided heat during a very cold week. The house has heat but we didn't need to turn it on when the stove was on. There is a binder with lots of details provided which was really helpful. All in all, a great vacation. We would love to come back and stay longer.

Great cabin and a nice quiet spot on the lake

The family had a blast swimming off the dock with floats but walking in was a little mucky for young swimmers. Kayaks and canoe were lots of fun. Owner helped us find a place to rent a boat, and not much activity on the lake so great place for water skiing or tubing. House was nicely updated, comfortable, had everything we could need. Appreciated the availability of window AC units when it reached 90 degrees!

Loved the camp!

We absolutely loved staying at this camp. Very clean and well stocked for everything you could need. The washer and dryer were a game changer along with the dishwasher. Made life much easier with our 2 and 4 year olds. We had some family come stay with us and they had their own space upstairs including their own bathroom which was nice. Outside there there a nice fireplace, grill (which we didn't use) and kayaks. Having our own dock was great but the swimming right off the lawn wasn't ideal because it's so grassy. My 4 year old didn't mind swimming off the dock though and just went for the deeper water. The little beach a few houses down was also really nice for building sandcastles. It was super quiet the week we were there, back to school week, but the neighbors we did briefly see were very nice.

Better than the pictures!

The house was amazing! The fishing was unbelievable on Highland Lake. The canoe was used daily for fishing trips, but just as many fish were caught right from dock. The screened in porch really made the nights enjoyable. The home owner was super responsive to any questions we had. Thank you for sharing this gem! We hope to be back again.

Peaceful getaway

We had a wonderful stay at this lake house. There was plenty of space for us all (a family of 4, with two teenaged sons). We enjoyed kayaking, canoeing, swimming, stargazing on the dock and area hikes. The house is so lovely - we had everything we needed. The lake house is nicely updated while maintaining its rustic charm. Thank you, Chris!

GREAT PLACE

My sons and I rented the cottage for a long weekend of fishing. Wonderful cottage. Beautiful lake with private dock and ramp. Looking forward to booking it again. We didn't want to leave. Bridgton is a very cool little town with wonderful people.

A lakefront gem

Quiet, clean, well maintained cottage less than 10 minutes from the village of Bridgton. The kitchen was well stocked and the interior space was well designed. It was It was a joy to sit out on the screened in porch and enjoy the lake view. We are looking forward to returning!

Beautiful Home on a Quiet Lake

We truly enjoyed our stay at this quiet, lakefront home. It was close to everything yet far enough away from the main part of town to give us a feeling of total relaxation. We enjoyed kayaking on the pristine lake as well as biking on the well maintained roads. The house was nicely furnished with many updates. The neighborhood was extremely quiet and the lake is just steps away from the house. We saw and heard loons throughout the time we were there. We look forward to returning.

Everything your family could need or want in a lake house vacation.

Also, the city of Bridgton and surrounding area offered many activities. Portland was an easy drive for dinner and sightseeing. Owners of this property make the rental process easy. They are the best!
