About this house rental

After a year's worth of renovations due to a devastating flood resulting from a frozen pipe, we're *almost* ready to welcome guests back to 27 Sparrow. We thank our long-time guests for keeping tabs and we're so grateful for your patience. Summer of 2023 brings so many great improvements, including a reconfigured living room, new windows and doors, new furniture, and a whole new kitchen with a full-sized stove and dishwasher! We are so excited to share these changes with you. For for frequent guests, no more drawers that mysteriously open in the night! No more kitchen cabinets that throw things out onto the counter, but still the same rustic camp with direct lake access you've come to appreciate. We're still waiting on countertops, which we expect to be installed by the end of May, but wanted to make our place available for the summer season 2023.

Welcome to our lakeside camp in the heart of Central Maine! Located on the shores of Big Indian Lake in St. Albans, ME, our home has 3 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, a large living room, and a newly remodeled kitchen. We've just completed tons of upgrades to take advantage of this quite, comfortable spot to enjoy a fantastic view in a great location for fishing, boating, or just relaxing and listening to the loons call.

There are two bedrooms upstairs; one has a queen-sized bed with a large picture window facing the lake, the other has twin bunk beds with a lake-facing balcony. The third bedroom is downstairs and has a queen-sized bed with a sliding door right out onto the deck.

If you're interested in fishing, the lake is home to bass, perch, bluegill, and pickerel all catchable from shore or off our dock. There is also a canoe and kayaks available for use if you'd like to get out onto the lake.

The camp is about 45 minutes from Bangor, 1 hour and 45 minutes from Portland, and 2 hours from Bar Harbor.

From booking, to arriving, and checking out everything was easy! Great communication and gorgeous spot! So nice and quiet, all the amenities, clean and easy to find. We are even discussing coming back next year already.

We had an absolutely wonderful week here. We are a family of 5 with 3 young kids. The house was completely family friendly—no big breakables, booster seat/high chair, pack and play, even kids plates and silverware! We really enjoyed using the 2 kids and adult kayaks, paddle boat and even the canoe. It was so nice to not have the hassle of bringing our own kayaks. I even brought the kids life jackets just in case—but our kids liked the selection at the house better. Our kids caught dozens of fish, even a large mouthed bass right off the dock. The space inside is very well updated with a full size gas range, dishwasher, fridge and every thing you could need for cooking/baking, including cooking oil and spices. It’s on a dead end road to with minimal to no traffic and friendly neighbors surrounding. We truly had the best time here—thank you Macdonald family!

It was a lovely camp with a great view! When considering renting 27 Sparrow I missed the part where it said no air conditioning. Thankfully we had cool weather so it was not an issue. That would be the only reason we would hesitate to book mid summer. Everything else was fantastic! It's a very special property.
