Me, my husband and my greyhound just spent a week at this house and had a fabulous time. Communication with the owner was excellent beforehand, and he was great about answering all of my nit-picky questions.
The location is perfect, very far from the main road. There are some other houses in close proximity, but the pond is very underpopulated...there are maybe 6 houses on the entire pond. Most people are swimming, kayaking, canoeing and fishing on the pond...only one small motor boat the entire time we were there. It's a 20 minute drive to Damariscotta where you can do all of your grocery shopping, fish buying, ice cream eating, and more. We also took the 50 minute drive to Camden which was a nice day trip. Kayaks are provided and at 3 miles long, it's easy to explore the entire pond. We couldn't find any life-jackets, so I'm not sure if those are provided.
Furnishings are simple and clean. All of the amenities we needed were provided: gas grill, pots, pans, microwave, toaster, sheets, etc. The tv gets no reception, so bring some DVD's, books, and music for entertainment.
Bring a lot of bug spray!!! Near the house it's not very bad, but if you have to get up at 6am and walk the dog, you will be eaten alive!
