Quintessential Maine Lake House All Wood Interior, 280Ft of Waterfront. Firepit


Don’t worry about hot summer days, as there’s AC that will keep you cool. Flat-screen TVs with DIRECTV and high-speed WIFI mean you’re not giving up the comforts of home while getting away.

Outside is a vacationer’s paradise. Adirondack chairs, a fire pit with firewood, a dock, swimming float, and stunning views of both the water and nearby hills make it the perfect place to take in the great outdoors. Enjoy swimming, boating, fishing, and more. A canoe, two kayaks, and a paddleboard come with your rental.

Don’t let the name Chemo Pond fool you. The “pond” is actually a 3.5 by 1-mile pristine lake. Does Rover like to swim? Bring him along, too, as dogs are welcome at The James House.



Acadia National Park: Acadia National Park: In 1913, President Woodrow Wilson set aside 6000 acres (within what is now Acadia National Park) as Sieur de Monts National Monument. With the acquisition of more land and private support and funding, in 1919 President Wilson signed an act establishing Lafayette National Park. In 1929 the parks name was changed to Acadia. Acadia National Park was established to protect the area's spectacular scenic values, Maine's rock bound coast, its coastal and its offshore islands as characterized by the geologic features, natural history and the native plant and animal life. Forty five miles of rustic carriage roads weave around the mountains and through the valleys of Acadia National Park, the gift of philanthropist John D Rockefeller, Jr., and family. Rockefeller, a skilled horseman, desired to travel on motor free byways via horse and carriage into the heart of Mount Desert Island. His efforts resulted in roads with sweeping vistas and close up views of the landscape.

Cadillac Mountain: Cadillac Mountain: At 1,530 feet, Cadillac Mountain is not only the tallest mountain in Acadia National Park, but also the tallest mountain along the eastern coast of the United States. Rising high above the town of Bar Harbor, Cadillac Mountain offers magnificent views of the Porcupine Islands and Frenchman Bay. Explore the summit of this granite mountain along a .3-mile trail, which includes wayside exhibits about natural and human history. Portions of this trail are accessible to wheelchair users. Cadillac Mountain is accessible via a winding, narrow, 3.5-mile road. The road is closed from December 1 through April 14 and whenever weather conditions (e.g., dense fog or ice) require.

The house was perfect for our family vacation! It’s often so hard to find something big enough for family to have enough space and this house was great! Also so helpful that it was dog friendly. Easy communication with the host. Only recommendation- if you’re sensitive to the taste of tap water, might want to bring some drinking water with you!

This is the second time staying here!! It is always so clean, well-stocked and plenty of room for our whole family and dogs!! The host is very responsive and helpful with information! I would highly recommend this location especially with its bakery just up the road.

Great property for a Labor Day weekend getaway for 2 families. We also rented a pontoon boat from Lakeside Boat Rentals and that was just perfect.
