Photos and Description of the Camden vacation cottage rental
lakeside cottage: 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, sleeps 7

Enjoy your Maine vacation in this exquisitely private, shingle-style cottage with over 1700 feet of private waterfront. Recently built, the George Hill Lake House offers three bedrooms, a wonderfully appointed kitchen, screened porch, wrap-around deck, outdoor shower and two family rooms set on 80 lakefront acres.

Anchored by a stunning granite fireplace, relaxed furniture and panoramic lake views, the great room is the heart of the cottage. Surrounded by well-appointed kitchen, bathroom and casual dining area, the family room boasts floor to ceiling windows and cathedral ceilings. The adjoining screen porch and deck provide ample opportunities to sip coffee in the morning sun or cook the day’s catch on the provided gas grill.

A stone-stepped path through mature gardens leads you to the waterfront and it's custom built dock. Surrounded by a soft pine forest and edged with Maine’s famous granite, the shallow lake entry offers wonderful opportunities for swimming and boating.
