Perfect Maine lake house! Hosts, Jim and Peggy, were easy to get ahold of and had thought of everything to make our stay comfortable and pleasant! They made our first stay in Maine a wonderful experience! We enjoyed the fire pit outside and watching the ducks, geese and heron play on the lake. The coast was an easy drive of about an hour plus depending on where we were going. We would highly recommend staying at this cabin!

Such a pretty spot! The cabin was clean, comfortable and decorated nicely. The view of the lake from the house is amazing.

We absolutely love the Hart Street cottage. This was our 3rd time back in 4 years. Unfortunately we had to postpone last year due to COVID situation. The cottage is immaculate and has everything you need, just pack your clothes! Love the convenience to downtown restaurants, Hannafords and Walmart. This year we checked out Dragonfly Winery which I highly recommend. Also checked out the Farmer's Table which was delicious and great service. Weather was perfect 70s and sunny all week with beautiful foliage. Thank you to Peg and Jim for being the best hosts.
