About this house rental
A sign that greets you as you enter our lovely lake front home. Wake up and experience quiet mornings to watch the sun rise over Tripp Lake (or wake in time to watch the sunset, we don't judge!)
[[PRIOR TO BOOKING, PLEASE READ DESCRIPTION BELOW CAREFULLY]]
*** About the property***
We feel the house offers a classic, rustic atmosphere. What you'll walk into is a wood-paneled cabin-styled home with a common room, kitchen, bathroom and three bedrooms. Each bedroom is prepared with clean linens and pillows prior to your arrival. We also can provide a canoe for you to use on Tripp Lake. Aside from the necessities, we offer some modern amenities– mainly fast speed WiFi (500 mbps) if you need to do some side work. Window air conditioning for only the common living area.
Need a change of scenery? We can offer some recommendations in the area or beyond. Explore the surrounding town of Poland, or go further into the neighboring towns or to the city of Portland!
Aside from that you'll have the ability to really make your New England summer into your own, and we'll be happy to be a part of that experience.
*** Please note ***
> While we prefer renters who rent for seven (7) days minimum, we also are accommodating of those interested in staying for a minimum of three (3) days. Please shoot us a message and we'd be happy to chat. (For those that do stay with us longer than 7+ days, we do check-in to remove any trash or replace any soiled linens). We are only equipped to host up at a max 14-night stays with our property in its current state.
> Our home is non-smoking (we just restored it and hope to keep it in top shape for years to come).
> We do have a water filtration system in place. However, we do advise renters to not directly drink as its drawn directly from the lake, and bring potable water.
> To remedy this, we provide a "starter kit" of a few days of water and clean linens. Please ask if you need any additional items!
> Our policy on pets is negotiable. Please do message us about your pet and we'll do our best to accommodate.
> We also do have a renters' agreement and disclaimer that is required for all of our guests' staying that repeat details further about payment, cancellations and house rules. Deposit of $500 is due with the signing of this agreement.
> We also ask for a refundable security deposit, which will be given back pending inspection of the property no egregious damage and excessive cleaning.

The house was very clean the views from the front porch were spectacular. The response for the the host was quick and always helpful. Thank you I would stay again.
10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2025
Our vacation stay was great. The hosts were super supportive. Everything was disclosed upfront so there were no surprises and not due to any shortcoming of the owner. ( drinking water not available/ heating is with space heaters/ cooling with one AC/ one bathroom) . There were so many things that were positive though that we definitely plan to come again. Supportive owners/ great location/ house has everything that is included already ex kayak/ life jackets/ fishing poles etc) / 3 bedrooms etc. Would recommend highly.

We had a wonderful time in the house. It’s very cozy and the sunsets are just a treat. Communicating with the host was easy and friendly at all times. We felt very welcomed and we can most definitely say that we would love to return. We really hope it stays this authentic for a long time.
6 / 10Average·Aug 2025
This is a fine place to stay with old-time cabin vibes. However, it should be more prominently noted in the property description that the water is drawn directly from the lake and not suitable for drinking or cooking. For some potential renters, this could be an important point to note.
