About this house rental

Taking a vacation doesn't get any better than this! Lily Pad Cove, near Lake Ann, is the perfect landing spot for a getaway. Situated on two acres, this private, idyllic location has a multi-level spacious home that will sleep up to 10 guests with 4-bedrooms and 3.5-bathrooms.

This spectacular home welcomes guests with artisan stone floors and contains furniture and art from around the world. There are high ceilings, a skylight, and color everywhere. Facing east, all back bay windows and doors have views of the lake and pool. Off the kitchen, there is a den area with a sofa bed, cable TV with ROKU, a gas fireplace, and a wall A/C unit. The main floor has a large room with a piano, and three bedrooms. The fourth bedroom suite is on the upper level. The spacious garden level has additional sleeping space with a queen bed and twin bed and remains cool in hot weather. There is a Smart TV, and lots of space for games on rainy days. This floor also has a dry sauna and leads out to the pool.

Outdoors is magical. Surrounded by 1,600 acres of state forest, Sanford Lake is a tranquil 50-acre "no-wake" lake. There is no public boat launch on this lake. A rowboat, canoe, and kayak can be used to enjoy the peaceful waters. No fewer than 59 bird species have been identified from the property such as Redwing Blackbirds, who live in the cattails on the lake shore. Several varieties of ducks, woodpeckers, flickers, and a pair of nesting Loons can also be spotted. Sport fishers be prepared to catch a wide variety of fish on this lake, including Bass, Pike, Bluegill, and Sunfish.

Although the shoreline here is soft, there is a spot on the other side of the lake for sandy swimming. Don't feel like swimming in the lake? Enjoy the wonderful, heated in-ground private swimming pool (closed for the winter on September 30). Outdoor seating and a fire pit complete the beautiful setting and set the stage for a perfect end to the evening.

In the fall, this is a perfect location to visit fall festivals, wine-tasting tours, and observing the magnificent colors of the trees.

One well-mannered dog is welcome; owners must clean up after their pet.

Really lovely stay. The pool was perfect and the house was such fun with lots of things for the kids. Lake Ann shops were super close and convenient. Boats all worked well and we got to see the loons. Some of the rooms were a little hot at the height of a heat wave but AC did a good enough job during typical weather.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: overall we had a great time at the property... a few hiccups in the beginning but UpNorth was responsive and helped resolve issues asap... good weather so no heat issues with our fans running upstairs and lots of spacefor our family group of 9... perhaps another kayak or 2since the house does accommodate large groups and more than 3 chairs at the pool..? outside dining/coffee on the patio was sooo nice, looking at the lake and we even saw a small bear exploring the lake!! all rentals have pluses and minuses but overall we had a memorable time at Lily Pad Cove.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall good experience. Very interesting decor, lots of books! Some beds were a little lumpy, others shared a room. I would say comfortable sleeps 7. Not toddler friendly! Gardens need a bit of TLC. Nice to be able to take my dog...1 person kayak, row boat and canoe were nice to have on hand. Cauught a few small fish. No sharp prep knives so definitely bring your own. Good location for adventuring. Would recommend with reservations..
