The house was warm, cozy and a great fit for me and my 2 young kids. The views across the lake are stunning.It was a budget friendly price, enjoyable and im looking forward to staying there again.
We loved the lake cabin. Property was clean and well taken care of. My daughter loved the upstairs sitting room overlooking the lake. We would stay there again.
Beautiful and peaceful setting on the lake. Close enough to Portland and other activities but quiet and relaxed at the cottage.

Beautiful lakeside therapy
Perfect location near Portland but, calm and peaceful. Very nice having kayaks and paddle boards to use. Well stocked kitchen, great deck with a grill and a fire pit.

Great Place with a Great View and Ambience
Three ladies enjoyed four days at this property which was very peaceful and relaxing. Loved sitting down by the lake, roasting marshmellows and hotdogs with the bonfire, while watching the geese, ducks, and chippies. The house has lots of room with plenty of places for everyone to gather together. Will definitely stay here again!

Maine Lake House
We enjoyed a private getaway with our dog! It was relaxing and felt just like a summer home should. Plenty of heat and blankets on the cooler evenings! The sunrise was spectacular.
The house was good for 4 adults and 2 kids, it was clean and well stocked. It stayed warm during the colder nights. The check in and check out was really chill. The lake was beautiful!

Great location but amenities need some care
Loved the location of property location! Some of the amenities need replacement or care.
My family enjoyed the use of the kayaks and floats available. Cottage location made it easy to get back and forth to Portland. The air conditioning was a Godsend with the high temps/humidity Maine was experiencing. Kitchen was stocked with all the pots/pans to cook meals as well as the grill. Nice patio table to enjoy meals and relaxing.

Beautiful location
Great service from Madison
Cons
The county living drain smell (per my mother, didn't bother me)
This is a cute cottage on a sweet little lake. Very clean with the exception of the stovetop. Pretty warm inside though there are many fans and a free standing AC on the porch which if you raise the windows in the living room will eventually cool things off. Our beds were quite comfortable. The view is lovely as is the sunrise. We did not use the boats, paddleboards or Kayaks but for someone outdoorsy staying longer this would be a plus. Tough dirt road and very dark at night. Can be difficult to find.
The house was really great - plenty of room and a nice and serene. Older house with squeaky and uneven floors but the decor and some modern makeovers made it have great character! Communicating with property manager was very easy and we got prompt responses. The only thing worth mentioning that needs attention is the little bridge to go over to get to the driveway. Luckily we have a higher car but anyone with a regular sedan would have bottomed out and/or possibly got stuck. I’m sure it was weather related as to why it got so bad since we’re just coming off winter but that would have caused a big problem for someone else’s car and can’t imagine they’d be too happy. Aside from that, great little place.

So much charm!
Lovely lake house with a truly beautiful view! Lots of space for dining, and charming nooks with lake views on both floors. Kitchen is well-appointed, and a nicely curated collection of books, games, and puzzles available for rainy days and evenings. Beds are very comfortable, with lots of soft blankets available. Air conditioning is wonderful, and fans were also available. Bathrooms were clean with plenty of hot water and good water pressure. Plenty of kayaks, paddle boards, etc, and different sizes of life jackets available for the whole family to have fun on the lake. Fire pit, deck with grill, hammock and lovely yard to enjoy. There are 2 refrigerator/freezers in the home, which was very useful. (One note, this is a lake house filled with charm and quirks, and has quite a steep staircase to the second floor without a railing. There is a walk-in shower upstairs, and a lovely claw-footed tub in the downstairs bathroom, which, unfortunately, may make this a less ideal rental for elderly guests with mobility issues.) This rating would be a 5, except for a few housekeeping issues that we discussed with staff, and will hopefully be addressed in time for the next renter!

Disappointed
There was both good and bad with this property.
I will start with the bad because first impressions and experiences mean everything.
1. When we pulled up to the home, we admired the lake near sunset. We quickly discovered the lawn between the house and lake was uncut, with grass 2+ feet tall. The chairs on the lawn were being swallowed by the grass. We then saw no path to the pier without walking through high grass. On day 3, I got a tick on my leg, dug in and it bled pulling it out.
2. I contacted Vacasa and got the runaround about the lawn and who could cut it.
3. After we settled in, I discovered 3 trash cans worth of trash scattered about in the back of the shed. It was disgusting. Thankfully Vacasa did remove the trash about 18 hrs into our stay.
4. It was clear by the middle of our stay that the lawn wasn't going to be cut. Vacasa gave me a whole $25.07 refund (less than 1% of our rental).
We traveled a good 12 hrs to get here, so we tried to make the best of it. The home is very old, but there are parts we grew fond of. The back enclosed porch turned out to be very relaxing. We spent a good amount of time there and watching the changeable colors of the sky and lake. We even saw a bald eagle twice.
The beds were very squeaky, so sleeping was difficult at times, but manageable. The kitchen mostly had what we needed.
If the lawn was cut, the trash was not an issue, I would have given 4 stars. Im giving it 2 because we couldn't do what we planned
It was wonderful! Beautiful view. The only complaint we have is that it has a musty smell. We could only think it was because the cottage is old. Would definitely stay again!
Very nice place along the lake to unwind and relax. Any inquiries were promptly answered. The place was very clean and dog friendly - our dog had a great time running around the yard and hanging out by the bonfire. The beds were not the most comfortable but other than that the experience was great. If you enjoy looking at the stars, the view at night was top notch compared to what we're used to seeing back home.
My family, including dogs, stayed for 4 nights. The weather was cold and windy but the house was warm and comfortable. Loved sitting in the sunroom, the kitchen was well stocked, entertainment (TV and games) plentiful, claw tub very cool. Convenient to Portland and LLBean. Great hiking trails in Windham. Enjoyed our stay!
