About this house rental
Privacy, Peace and Tranquility!
Come and relax on your very own private nine acre Island, accessible by vehicle, has hundreds of feet of incredibly beautiful water frontage and comes complete with a 2 story log sided home offering 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 10 foot ceilings and knotty pine throughout.
Feel time and stress melt away! Take a morning stroll down the trails to view the sunrise at The Point and relax on the water at the beach when it's time to view the sunsets. With plenty to enjoy inbetween sunrises and sunsets, swimming, kyaking, canoeing, horseshoes, darts and cornhole to name a few. Roasting marshmallows and making smores by the firepit in the evening while gazing at the star filled night sky. Come and enjoy the many trails, perennial gardens and beautiful natural Maine woods that Tsuga Island has to offer.
The home comes complete with a large open first floor for entertaining with a wet bar, large screen tv with dvd player and direct tv services and plenty of board games. The kitchen is small but very functional with a large dining/gaming table. Upstairs all 3 bedrooms come with their own tvs with direct tv service. The home includes highspeed fiber with wireless internet access.
Sebasticook Lake is one of the premier bodies of water in central Maine with over 4200 acres and depths up to 60 feet. Tsuga Island is just 5 miles to downtown Newport, Town Boat Launch and easy Boat and Jetski rentals at the Marina, nearby Atv Trails, Interstate 95 and less than 45 minutes to Bangor International airport, Hollywood Slots Casino, shopping malls, restaurants, hiking, and the Maine Highlands. Centrally located for easy day trips to Acadia National park, Downeast Maine and so much more!
The island features sandy, shallow beaches and trails along the western shore line, an abundance of birds and fish in their natural habitats for your enjoyment. The east side of the island borders a beautiful marsh of reeds, cattails and an incredible variety of birds.
The cedar tree-lined edge with mossy rocks, ferns and boulders feels like stepping back in time. The north end is home to an evergreen forest. The entire island has mature Tsuga (Hemlock trees) and unique plants. Mushrooms and wildflowers bloom in abundance.

This is the first home rental that we actually felt at home. Gwen and Scott thought of everything from small toiletries to having games, kayaks, every kitchen utensil you could think of. The property was unbelievably cared for - i can't imagine the amount of time it takes to keep the outside they way they do. We had an amazing time fishing, watching the dogs swim and rented a boat to tour the incredibly large lake. A good time was had by all!

Such a lovely, peaceful spot! Gwen and Scott thought of every detail to make our stay comfortable - setting out age-appropriate water toys, providing beverages, toiletries, and even a sweet Maine-themed gift bag. We had everything we needed, and the property itself is beautiful and so well maintained. We had a wonderful week on the lake.

Staying at Tsuga island is nothing less than relaxing. All you need is right there on the island. The house was very well stocked with everything you will need. We only left the house to buy food! Gwen and Scott have gone above and beyond to make you feel welcome. From the moment we walked in with our 4 children and 2 large 9 month puppies we were all smiles. The kids loved lake life and exploring the island. They were also in their glory with the kids room and secret door! Even the dogs knew how to open the door by the end of our stay. They also thoroughly loved running the island. Maine is glorious in August! If you get the chance this is a must stay!!! We hope to be back again.

The house/surroundings have fantastic ratings and they are well deserved. It is an extremely well maintained property and delivers on everything advertised. There is obvious attention to detail in how the property is maintained and in many years of renting, this is the best maintained rental that I have come across.
I chose this house as my wife wanted a house by a lake - my kids and I prefer to be beside the ocean, but I caved this once ! I still prefer the ocean (we did a 2 hour each way day trip to Acadia one day), but the lake was great - and I did catch a 2lb+ Smallmouth bass on a fly which was great .... if you use a boat engine, be careful about rocks. They are not all marked with a buoy, and you can find some the hard way, as we did - but no damage done, just a scary moment or two, If you go slow the first day you will get the hang of the place - and it is not an issue. Overall a fantastic rental with fantastic hosts !
