PRIVATE WATERFRONT DOG FRIENDLY LAKE HOUSE

Welcome to your perfect waterfront escape on the beautiful Sabattus Pond! This incredible year-round home is the ultimate spot for your family to relax and enjoy all that Maine Camp Life has to offer. With plenty of space both inside and out, you'll have everything you need for a memorable vacation with your loved ones. And the best part? The stunning sunset views that will take your breath away!

But that's not all. This home also comes with a dock for your boat and a variety of amazing amenities and activities to keep your whole family entertained throughout your entire stay. Plus, the public boat launch is just a short 10-minute drive away. Trust us, you won't want to miss out on this perfect vacation home for you and your friends and family to enjoy.

Let's take a look inside. The spacious home features 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, a cozy living room, a screened-in porch, a large deck, and smart TVs in every room. And if that's not enough, there's also a finished basement for even more space to entertain and relax. As soon as you step inside, you'll be greeted by a large open kitchen, dining, and living area. There are also 2 bedrooms and a full bathroom on this level. The living room opens up to a screened-in porch and a large deck with gates on both entrances. Perfect for keeping your little ones or furry friends safe and secure.

BEDROOMS: The first bedroom has a comfortable queen bed, while the second bedroom has bunk beds (twin size). The third bedroom has 2 sets of bunk beds, making it the perfect spot for the kids to have a slumber party. And if you need some extra space for sleeping, there's a sectional couch in the living room and a sofa bed and air mattress in the finished basement.

BEDROOM 1: 1 queen
BEDROOM 2: bunks (twins)
BEDROOM 3: 2 sets of bunks
Living room 1: sectional couch
Living room 2/basement: 1 sofa couch, 1 pull out & air mattress

Now, let's take a look at the exterior. Step onto the large back deck and take in the breathtaking views of Sabattus Pond. This getaway also has plenty of private waterfront access, including a large dock for your boat or jet ski. And for even more fun on the water, we provide 2 adult kayaks, 1 youth kayak, a pedal boat and 2 paddle boards for you to use during your stay. We also have a bin at the dock filled with life jackets in various sizes. Just make sure to use the kayaks at your own risk and bring your own personal life jackets if needed. And when you're not out on the water, the backyard is perfect for yard games or gathering around the cozy fire pit.

THE WATER: We have PRIVATE waterfront access. There are stairs in the backyard that lead you to the private dock/water. The water has a sandy bottom about ankle deep at the shore line and you can stand/walk out as far as the dock goes.

FISHING: In addition to trophy pike and smallmouth fishing, Sabattus features healthy populations of chain pickerel, largemouth bass, white perch, black crappie and yellow perch. Maine's Department of Game and Inland Fisheries periodically stocks the lake with alewives, which provides healthy forage for gamefish.

PETS: Let's not forget about your furry friends! This home is pet-friendly, so feel free to bring your well-behaved pets along for the vacation. Just keep in mind that there are other dogs in the neighborhood, some of which may be off-leash. But don't worry, the deck is fully gated to keep your pets safe and secure. There's also a small fenced-in area directly off the back porch for your convenience. Just make sure to pick up after your pets, and there will be a $100 fee per pet, per stay.


SUMMER: During the summer, there's no better place to be than on Sabattus Pond. Spend your days kayaking, boating, fishing, swimming, BBQing and your nights gathered around the cozy fire pit.

WINTER: In the Winter the fun continues. You can snowmobile right out the front yard. You can also explore the frozen lake in snowshoes, ice skates or cross country skis. Our water is known for having a great variety of freshwater fish, so don't forget your ice fishing gear!

Looking for a day trip? For downhill skiing, it's a short 35 minute drive to Pleasant Mountain, 20 minutes to Lost Valley and for Nordic skiing it's 25 minutes to Five Fields Farm. About one hour away from Old Orchard Beach, 45 minutes away to Portland, 30 minutes to Freeport

Trust us, there's no better place to spend your next vacation. And don't forget, we provide all the essentials, including bed linens, towels, and toilet paper. Just make sure to use 1 ply/septic safe toilet paper, as there is no water filtration system in the home. We also provide a water dispenser with one jug for your use.

If you have a larger party and need some extra space, our neighbor's house is also available for rent. Just message us to inquire.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Disappointed!
Disappointed because the ceiling fans were filthy, layers of dust and idrt, couldn't use then for that reason. The standing fan in the upstairs bedroom was also quite dirty. The upstairs bathroom exhaust fan cover was very dirty. The window screens in the kitchen we so dirty that it was difficultto see out. What is the cleaning fee being used for, especially when the owner asks the guest to put the sheets in the washer and do light vacumming. This was not in the original information.
