Photos and Description of the Bridgton vacation estate rental 6 Bedrooms and 3 Full baths, sleeps 16

Highland Lake House boasts one of the best lake and mountain views in Western Maine. Perched on the Eastern Shore of Highland Lake, you’ll enjoy watching the lazy summer sun set on the Presidential Mountain range of New Hampshire. A top location contender for the film On Golden Pond, Highland Lake offers a picturesque setting for cruising in a sailboat, canoeing, kayaking, water skiing, or simply relaxing at the water’s edge in an Adirondack chair. Highland Lake House is a waterfront family compound owned and managed by a family who has a long history in Lakes Region and values time by the water with loved ones. It features a charming lakeside cottage and a traditional Cape Cod with plenty of parking for you and your guests. The property is roughly three quarters of an acre with 140 feet of waterfront and walking distance to town. There are two stationery docks and a swim float plus a mooring for any boat you wish to bring. The views are breathtaking.

Further details for this vacation estate rental in Bridgton, Maine

Enjoy the property: There is a stationery dock from the shore, and a swim float to enjoy soaking up the warm summer sun. In addition to a canoe and kayaks, there’s a mooring ready and waiting for your fishing boat, waterskiing boat, or a sailboat. When it s time to eat, dine on fresh Maine lobster at the picnic tables (seating for 12) near the campfire and enjoy the striking view down the lake, or get cozy on the cottage deck while you gaze at the spectacular sunsets.

Enjoy the town : Highland Lake House is located just one quarter of a mile to the quintessential New England village of Bridgton. Here you’ll find amenities such as a new movie theater, library, internet cafe, coffee shop, book stores, antique shops, galleries, and boutiques, plus live music nearly every night during the summer at a local lounge. There are several convenience stores and a department store for any needs you have to enhance your stay. Just a mile away you’ll find an 18 hole golf course boasting commanding views of the area.

Enjoy our brand new lake front cottage: The cottage was custom built in 2008 and is sited literally on the waters edge with an abundance of windows that surrounds you with views of the water and mountains including the Presidential Range and Pleasant Mountain (A.K.A. Shawnee Peak). This unique and rare setting provides for an intimate waterfront experience. The cottage has two bedrooms and two full baths on three levels and comfortably sleeps eight. The main level features an open floor plan with the kitchen, dining, and living room areas. The lake level has a ping pong table, living area, and table nook for playing board games or relaxing and walks out directly to the water's edge. The main level walks out to a covered wrap around cedar deck. Should a rain cloud arise, there are three zones of radiant heat to help you get cozy. The cottage was designed to maximize sunlight and to enjoy the incredible views down the lake.

Nice 2-cottage rental for large group

Rick from MA Oxford, MA, USA
Review Submitted: August 27, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Stayed w/family & friends 8/15-8/22/09. We/ve vacationed in the Bridgton area several times & love it. Property is nicely situated w/great waterfront (docks, raft) although there's no real beach so those w/small kids may want to take the short walk down the road to the town beach. Group meals for guests of both cottages were possible at the newer/larger building (at BBQ/campfire area picnic tables, or on deck or in dining room). Highland Lake is great for swimming, fishing, & boating, & free use of kayaks was a nice amenity. The older cottage is nice but could use a few touches: stove repair or replacement; better side entryway stairs w/railing; doors for privacy of upstairs bedrooms; clothes closets/cabinets or at least hooks in bedrooms; better TV/DVD setup). Also, we didn't find any guest info in either building on things like trash disposal, what to do if problems arise, how much to clean before leaving, local attractions/resources, etc. The rental rate seems somewhat high, but overall this is a very nice property which can accommodate about 8 in each cottage, so by splitting the cost among 3 families we were able to afford it. I would stay here again.
