About this cottage rental

We have added a new heatpump for the late Fall and early Spring. Of course we are open for the summer months as well.

The Private Waterfront area is 250' with a 35 foot dock. The Lake
tends to stay warm for a Maine Lake and drops off slowly. It is about
6 to 10 feet deep at the end of the dock. Plenty of Swimming and
Outdoor Activities are available. There is a boat landing at the bridge about 1 1/2 miles up from the camp if you have your own boat. Otherwise, a boat or canoe is provided for your enjoyment. New for Summer of 2019, new kayak, regular electric line (Solar will be there for backup only. No more monitoring electric meter). New Refrigerator. Camp is open from June 15th to October 30th every year. Smoking is not allowed; if you or your guests smoke inside, you will be billed for the damages.

Mainstream is not commercial and abounds with wildlife, including Moose, Deer, and Beavers, as well as a large variety of Birds.

We have added a two person kayak and a child kayak plus two rowboats and a canoe for the Summer of 2023. We already had a canoe and boat available. Also, we are extending our dock out 50 feet from shore for better swimming.
The Portland Press Herald has listed Mainstream Pond in Harmony and its associated river chain as one of the top 5 locations for kayaking and canoeing in the State of Maine. if you enjoy seeing bald eagles fly over and beaver building their lodges as well as plenty of recreational opportunities then Mainstream is a great place to get away

The fishing is excellent if you like Bass and Pickerel. We are only
minutes from the Harmony General Store which also has laundry facilities? Mainstream is part of the Sebasticook River Chain and has rapid falls below the Mainstream bridge.

* Please note we do not provide a Washer and Dryer at this location.
* There is a laundromat in the Town of of Harmony which is 10 minutes
* away. We have added a new dishwasher to this location and also are adding
* a new Heat pump for those who wish to come here during the late Fall months
* or early Spring starting in mid April.

What a lovely property and place! We loved all the outdoor things provided (fishing supplies, kayaks, canoe, boat). My 6 year old caught his first fish in the boat and with a provided pole! We enjoyed our experience immensely. Charles was a wonderful host and very responsive. Be informed there’s no washer and dryer on site despite being listed more than once in amenities. That was the only downside.

The sheer beauty of this very remote and private spot is unbelievable. We spent all of our time by, in, and on the water and we were thrilled with the available kayaks, canoes, boats and dock access. The beautiful weather had us wanting to keep the screen door open to the deck but it was very difficult to wrangle (broken) and the dock needed some safety updates (holes in the boards/weak boards). Also, we thought the listing offered washer/dryer access but no machines were on site. The space was very clean and well appointed, otherwise. Of note, water is not visible from the house which we didn't mind since we were waterside during daylight hours, but not sure if that is helpful to next guests. Owner was excellent and efficient with communication

The cabin was very nice and the lake was very pretty- we saw some gorgeous sunsets but the description was a little misleading. One of the main things we wanted to do was swim and it says swimming on the description and there is a picture of someone jumping off the dock and we even asked about swimming. However, it is NOT good swimming. It is choked with weeds and algae and very mucky. Even with water shoes, sunk up to my calf. Even at the end of the dock it was very weedy. You could jump off the dock although it is chest height but there is no ladder to climb back up so you have to wade through the muck to get back. Very unpleasant and disappointing. The dock itself was nice to sit on but very wobbly. You cannot see the lake from the cabin. The path to the lake and fire pit is beautiful but very rocky and slippery when wet. A challenge to carry food back and forth to the cabin. Overall it was more rustic than we expected. We had a good time but would not stay here again.
