4 Bedroom Cottage in West Poland, Poland Spring

Vintage Cottage surrounded by window boxes of flowers, and Guest House a few feet behind it are just steps away from Lake Thompson (11 miles long, max depth of 121', and several islands). Since the lake is spring fed by the Poland Springs aquifer, it's considered to be one of the most pristine glacial lakes in Maine.
We are on the East side and so we get spectacular sunsets. Peaceful, private setting among 100+ yr old trees, lush ferns, old stone walls that were built before the trees grew. We have no ambient light so you see lots of stars, and no background noise - you won't believe how quiet it is!
We recently reworked the cottage floor plan and refurbished it with all new thermopane windows - adding many to be able to see woods from every room; completely new kitchen and bath with tub/shower; 3/4' pine paneling throughout; porch surrounded by casement windows/screens; new roof; 10' pine tree bear sculpture... and we aren't done yet!
Cottage is open from the kitchen to the family room which has a cathedral ceiling with paddle fan and clerestory windows providing lots of light and wonderful views from the loft. Great for entertaining.
All mattresses in the cottage and the guest house are new within a few years. The cottage 1st floor bedroom has 1 dbl bed, and a wall of windows that looks out on the old stone wall, huge pine trees, the lake, and unbelievable sunsets.
The cottage loft has 1 twin and 1 dbl bed. Also new windows… one of them is a skylight that opens so you can hear the loons and see the stars as you have never seen them. The loft is across from the clerestory windows with a great view of the lake.
The Guest house 1st floor: 1 queen bed and a set of bunks (and washer and dryer). It has ¾” pine walls and ceilings and all new windows. The 2nd floor has 2 queen beds, and room for a 2nd set of bunks, or a crib, or pack and play. It has a cathedral ceiling, two skylights and a paddle fan.
Duck families will visit, loons will serenade you, and we have often sited deer, moose, foxes, etc. Very good fishing for salmon, lake trout and bass.
Fernwood Camp (girl's camp) owns a large land buffer between us and so we have a lot of privacy and the land feels as much like ours as theirs. Fernwood sprays for mosquitoes too which is great.
The property will be cleaned before you arrive and we ask that you leave it as you found it, and remove your own trash - dump is less than a mile away. Deposit fee of $500 is due with lease agreement, and rental fee is due 30 days before arrival. Deposit will be returned if there is no damage or excessive cleaning.
No Pets. No smoking inside.

Summary: My family and I (there are 11 of us), vacation in this area every year. Annie's place worked well for us. The main house is right on the lake with enough room for us all to sit and enjoy, including our fur baby.

Summary: It was a perfect fit for us as we had 10 family coming and going during the week between the ages of 86 and 14. Most all of these loved the swimming, sunbathing, running and canoeing at this lovely spot. We were blessed with perfect weather!

Summary: My family had the pleasure of staying at the cottages in August 2015. We liked it so much we are already booked for next year. We spent most of our time outside because the waterfront and weather were awesome --- crystal clear lake, awesome swim area with a sandy gradual drop off, dock, canoe, small boat with a motor, lakeside firepit, outdoor chairs, 2 canopy covered swings, large picnic table, and a gas grill. There were also blueberry bushes on the property for picking and making blueberry pancakes. The cottages were clean, comfortable and well maintained. The kitchen had everything needed to prepare meals and cook. There were also a few farm stands on the main road which were handy for picking up fresh veggies. The lake has a marina for renting boats and The Outpost (store/pizza/subs) that you can get to by boat or car. My family has been renting lakefront properties in NH & ME over the past 20 years and this place has everything we look for and is only the second place we have ever rented more than one time. So glad we found this peaceful, comfortable, relaxing, awesome property!!

Summary: We rented this place for two weeks this summer..It had all we were looking for and more..Plenty of sleeping space for our large extended family and friends..We enjoyed barbecues, campfires and fun in the sun swimming off the dock and renting a boat for a day of tubing it was fantastic .The neighbor who owns the property next door was friendly and accommodating to our parking needs . Did not want to leave kids had a blast . Great for all ages. I must also mention the caretakers who brought us wood and came whenever we needed .Booked already for next year .

Summary: We are now regulars at Thompson Lake and hope to spend time every summer there. What we love most about this place is the "feel" - the comfortable, positive vibe. That said, it is quaint and lake-y, but still clean and not too campy. We love that there are two buildings for sleeping. This allows the younger kids to be able to nap and get to bed early while adults can still be in the main cottage and not have to tiptoe around. We go with our family (parents, two young kids and dog) and my parents. The place is comfortable for all six of us, plus an occasional visitor or two. The lake itself is pristine- so clean and clear, and the fact that this camp has a sandy beach along with a dock is fantastic for kids. We've ventured out to the Gray Animal Farm, the New Balance Outlet, and lots of miles running and biking around the lake. Very highly recommended for families with young kids. They even have their own pack and play! Thanks Kat!
