Private setting Sparkling Lake Sebago

Swim in Sebago Lake, one of the cleanest lakes in the US. This property has been owned and used as a private vacation home for 50+ years by the same family.

Cozy, clean, NON SMOKING, surrounded by Sebago Lake State Park. 1 of 7 cottages sharing a private beach. The private beach is an easy 1 minute walk along the road between homes in front of our cottage. Entry is gradual, water level is high in early summer. (Note: high water level in early season may result in no beach.) Water shoes are helpful, footing is a mixture of small rocks and sand. Walk 5 minutes to a large, long, sandy State Park beach with picnic facilities, snack bar, bathrooms, volleyball and playgrounds. Trails run throughout the Park and link the beaches. A trail runs right behind our cottage. Our State Park Season Pass is provided.

Horseshoe pit, screened porch and decks, charcoal barbeque and wood firepit. A great vacation spot for a family with young children, offering a bit of safety in distance from water. There's space; you won't feel bothered by neighbors.

Drive 10 minutes to Point Sebago Golf Course; 10 minutes to Naples. Park on the causeway and walk in any direction to find things to do. Portland is 30 minutes away. Children's Museum, Art Museum, Old Port - great restaurants, unique shops, tours and cruises. North Conway, NH, heart of the White Mountains, tax free outlet shopping is 2 hr.

Walking, swimming, kayaking, evenings by the fire. Bring your mountain bike to ride the Park trails.

Lots of DVDs, board games and a foosball table. Limited TV reception (NO CABLE), and limited internet connectivity (JETPAK), which, due to location in state park, can be sporadic.

Sorry, NO mooring or dock for a boat. The State Park boat launch is 1/2 mile away.

4 bedrooms will sleep 7 people. Two additional beds in open upstairs loft area, plus inflatable instabed.

Level one contains:
- a large screened porch - eating area, hammock, seating and a glider;
- living area, dining area, equipped kitchen;
- bedroom with queen bed;
- large full bathroom with washer and dryer.

1/2 level up: huge master bedroom with California king bed and full sized crib (we supply these sheets).

Level two contains:
- loft with foosball table and 2 cots;
- bedroom with double bed;

Even Better In Person!
The location was amazing! The walk to the lake behind the house was like a dream. That beach was either completely empty or there was a family on the other side. It felt like our own deserted island. And just a short walk down the road was one section of the state park, then a short drive was the sandbar beach. And there was a lagoon with a boat launch, where we could kayak in a peaceful setting. Scott was always available with questions, and Jaime was the best! They were very flexible, helpful and kind. The house itself was super clean, with everything we may have needed. There was space for everyone, including friends of my teens who came for a few nights. An excellent choice for families with kids of any age.

Great Graduation Celebration
We stayed with our 3 grown boys (22, 24, 24) over Memorial Day weekend to celebrate our 3rd son's UMASS graduation. Golf @ Point Sebago, kayaking, Cub Cove Beach and mornings on the deck playing games were some of our favorite activities. House was big and comfortable. Few drawbacks : long list of cleaning required despite paying cleaning fee, house could use some upgrading. What is offered (space, proximity to beach and kayaks/canoe) outweighs drawbacks. Would recommend to anyone staying in the Sebago area!

Quiet Peaceful Getaway
The property was exactly as described in the listing. Kids especially enjoyed having their own bedrooms and there was plenty of room for everyone. The location inside the park was wonderful. The grandchildren also enjoyed having a campfire and making s’mores. Scott and Jamie were excellent at communicating when needed. Would definitely recommend this rental to others.

Lovely trip to Sebago Lake in September
We very much enjoyed our September stay at Scott & Lynn’s cottage on Sebago Lake. The nearby private sandy beach was perfect for my 2-year-old daughter, and we all enjoyed relaxing, swimming, and boating. It was a great trip!

Wonderful week on Cub Point
We are 2 families with 4 kids (ages 2-8) and the house fit and slept all of us perfectly. The kids loved having their own space upstairs w/ fooseball, games and TV (parents loved it too). The location can't be beat, with 3 beaches in walking distance, lots of trails for walks & bike rides, we did it all. The fact that there were 4 boats for us to use was amazing, every morning started with a paddle. Scott was very responsive and super nice when i reached out to him. Jaime and her husband were lovely, they met us at the house and gave us a tour of the grounds, which was a really nice touch. Thank you so much, we hope to be back next year!

Property was gorgeous, clean, and exactly as advertised. The area was so peaceful - taking in the outside was always relaxing. Communication was a breeze and the check in process was easy. Although it rained all weekend, the quality of the property and neighborhood made our Memorial Day weekend a rejuvenating break in a chaotic year.

Quiet getaway
Beautiful location inside Sebago State Park. The house was perfect for 3 generations (4 adults, 3 college kids) we enjoyed family dinners at the big table and game nights. Enjoyed the short walk to the beach today to enjoy the sun and sunset at night. Jaime, the property manager was waiting to welcome us, show us around, and make sure we had everything we needed. Our week was very restorative!

Much needed relaxation!
We had a great time at this house! The 4 bedrooms were set up perfectly for what we needed. We went for total relaxation, and definitely found that in this very quiet area. We took advantage of the beaches on Sebago Lake that was within walking distance, many peaceful trails in the woods that we used, and even did some biking! We would love to go back again! All of our questions were answered very promptly by Scott. Thanks so much and will be in touch in the future! Cindy & Joe

Our stay was wonderful and much needed. This house is comfortable, clean, well-equipped and spacious. Being able to walk to and enjoy three stunning and vastly different beaches is truly incredible. Sebago Lake and the State Park are beautiful. It was a pleasure to speak and work with both Scotts, owner, and property manager, and they made our stay seamless and easy. We hope to return next year!

Cozy and comfortable house in awesome location
We really enjoyed staying at this great home in the middle of state park and having easy access to 3 beaches. The house was big with 4 bedrooms plus 2 comfortable beds in the hall on the 2nd floor. The covered porch was spacious, included a hammock, and there was even a fire pit in the yard (with firewood included). The communication from the owner was superb (the best we've ever experienced). Thank you for a great vacation!

Could not get over how clear and beautiful the lake is!! What a terrific location, quiet, very nice people, in a state park with great trails and plenty to keep you busy within a few miles of the park! The house was perfect for a family of 6 adults and one toddler. Plenty of space and great amenities included with the house. Felt very much at home.

Perfect place
The pictures don't do this home justice. It was perfect for my family of four (a 4 and 2 year old), mother and father in law, brother in law and a cousin. So much space for privacy sleeping and room for family fun! It was clean and had plenty of extras (firewood, insect repellent, towels, kayaks, life preservers, etc) so you didn't have to rent or buy. Scott (owner) was very responsive and ensured we had all we needed. Only downfall was there was not much to do in the local area at night. Everything seemed to close early.

Fabulous family vacation at Cub Point
We all had a fantastic time on our vacation at your lovely cabin on Cub Point. All the beaches/lake access points were great and we especially enjoyed the State Park's main beach where we set up for the day on several occasions. As advertised your vacation home came with all we needed to have a thoroughly enjoyable time and we took advantage of just about all it had to offer; from the nearly nightly cooking of s'mores at the fire-pit, hiking the trails, kayaking, outdoor grilling and of course lots of swimming. We even got in a few games of horseshoes. The kids loved the Foosball table and watched many DVD movies in the game room as well. We really did have a wonderful week! Both owners and caretakers are very responsive and exceptionally easy to work with. Great people!

Wonderful Cabin (almost) next to Lake Sebago
This is the perfect home and location and amenities for a family vacation. The home and property is well maintained with kayaks available, a place for a fire and BBQ, a well appointed kitchen, and has three locations where you can swim in the lake. There are beautiful hiking paths, and it is next to a Maine State Park. The home is not actually lakeside, but is rather set back a little bit behind 2 other lakeside homes, but that being said, there is water access and a shared beach, and it is literally a 2-3 minute walk away and you can be swimming in the water or launching a kayak. What is really wonderful is that there are three swimming options nearby, two of which are mostly private. And you can bring your own kayaks or use the ones they have available which are in great shape. The house is also very cozy inside at night and in the morning, and it is great for cooking, spending time together as a family, and reading a good book. Everyone in the family had a fun time, and felt right at home. This is a wonderful booking and we would return again.
