Charming Lakehouse
We enjoyed a couple of nights in this charming home. The beds were comfy and the kitchen was a nice size for preparing meals. We relaxed by the fire and enjoyed the view of the lake. All 4 of us are coffee and wine drinkers so a larger coffee pot and at least 4 wineglasses would have made it perfect.

Beautiful location
The house is located right near the downtown area and the lake behind the house provides a great view from the living room and kitchen. The house was very clean and had all we needed to enjoy our vacation in Maine! Thank you for a wonderful visit.

Pleasant Stay
We had a pleasant stay at Leonard Lake. What was great was the place was well equipped with everything you would need for a comfortable stay. From the kitchen pots and pans to the outdoor chairs. The lake was beautiful and having use of the firepit was great. The only issue we had was the acorns dropping from the oak trees at night on the roof, which kept us awake and we came away with a few dents on the hood of our car. It would have been helpful if we were warned about the acorns. In the fall guests should back in and park more on the right of the house to avoid most of the acorns.

Beautiful
The view was beautiful of the lake. The home was extremely clean and had everything that we needed. I took advantage of the kayaks and just drifted on the lake drinking Champagne. Town is a mile away so it was an easy walk. Best lobster restaurant at end of street. Loved this gem

lovely view in a quiet neighborhood
No close neighbors. Great windows - felt like being in the woods. Loved the lighted make-up mirror in the master bedroom. Beds were very comfortable. Quick drive to town. Close to other attractions such as Bar Harbor. Well stocked with supplies with 2 exceptions. A box of Kleenex is always helpful. And there was a shortage of hangers for our clothes. Both bedrooms have window air conditioners. But the one in the master bedroom has flimsy and poorly fitting barriers on either side of the a.c. and doesn't keep out the bugs or the cool weather very well. Was looking forward to using the kayaks, but access to the lake to launch them was problematic. Communication with property management was mostly easy and smooth. Did try to put the trash out for collection Sunday night for Monday a.m. pick up as instructed. We saw the garbage truck come and empty the other trash cans, but not ours. Contacted management and were told that they would take care of it, but did not. Finally, be aware that the street is very rough and very narrow. A lot of trucks were going down the street at a high rate of speed.

Incredible Lakehouse Getaway
Highly recommend this lakehouse! The house sits on the shore of a lake that feels private. You can't see neighbors on either side. My family loved having kayaks on hand to enjoy the lake. We played corn hole and had fires in the fire pit at night. The house itself is clean and inviting. My kids said their beds were comfortable as was the master. We spent time in Acadia National Park while we stayed here and the drive was easy. We did not want to leave!

The house is in a great location. It's close enough to the local attractions but secluded enough to offer privacy and relaxation. The house has all the amenities you need and everything was very clean. Would definitely stay here again.
