5 Bedroom Cottage in Camden

Situated immediately on the shore of Megunticook Lake, the largest freshwater body in the mid-coast region, “Babb Camp" enjoys spectacular views of the Camden Hills and the nature preserve, Fernald's Neck.
The camp is only 3 miles from the charms of the ocean-front town of Camden, with its many wonderful restaurants and shops, as well as a variety of opportunities to experience Penobscot Bay.
Located well-off the main road down a private road along a gently sloping wooded 2 acre lot, all the residents along this side of the lake are multi-generational owners and should you choose to stay here, you will have access to a very special section of the lake.
An American Bald Eagle is resident on the property most days and the loons can be seen swimming and heard calling at any hour day or night. Angler's can fish right off the dock or in the many coves nearby.
The Camp:
The building is an authentic example of a shingle style, traditional, rustic, Maine lakeside cabin. It has 4 upstairs bedrooms and 1 downstairs bedroom, generous living and dining area, a large kitchen, and a large, wraparound porch. In keeping with the era, there are exposed posts and beams, original glass windows, and an original Ben Franklin wood stove. The furniture includes LLBean Lodge leather sofa and chairs, and an imported farmhouse table. There is a 42 in flatscreen TV with internet connectivity, and comfortable Amish-built Adirondack chairs on the porch. The dock is positioned to receive all day sun and is surrounded by deep, fresh water, perfect for swimming and boating.

Summary: Another magical stay at Babb Camp with family. Weather was not ideal but did not matter. We love the setting and the lake is so much fun. So much to do even in cloudy weather - hikes for all levels, trips to town, canoeing and kayaking. We will be back!!!

Summary: Rustic, charming and wonderful experience on the lake. Jim and Jennifer are great to deal with and the "Babb Camp" is everything you'd want in a back to basics lake front experience. We had a tremendous time and would definitely go back!

Summary: A charming old camp on a wonderful lake. The porch is a slice of heaven. The main living space is spacious and cozy, with lots of areas to tuck in, read a book, do a puzzle, and comfortably gather. The kitchen was well stocked. Communication with the owners was easy and super friendly! The second floor had lots of sleeping options and great lake views, but not every room is totally private as you have to walk through at least one. And some of the walls don't go to the ceiling, so it's quite rustic. Just good to know. We had a wonderful stay!

Summary: Such a wonderful 2 weeks. Listening to the loons, waking up to a magnificent view, sitting on the porch, deep water off the dock, kayaking to jumpers rock, fishing in the canoe, enjoying dinners on the harbor, hiking surrounding mountains and soaking in family time. We didn’t want our vacation to end! Huge thank you to Jennifer for being such a great host!

Summary: We had such a wonderful time at Babb Camp. We cherished our sunny September stay out on that amazing dock with Adirondack Chairs. Coffee in the morning and WOW those stars at night! Lake Megunticook is crystal clear and kayaking was such a joy. The American Bald Eagle visits were a highlight, and sleeping in that room with all those windows, magical. We would highly recommend this beautiful old-world camp to those looking for rest and relaxation with family and friends. M & J

Summary: We thoroughly enjoyed this charming lake house with beautiful views. Lake Megunticook water is crystal clear and clean with dramatic shorelines. Perfect for swimming, kayaking, canoeing, and SUP. We relaxed on the dock at sunrise and sunset and loved playing cards and eating family meals on the front porch. The house had everything we needed and the hosts were very responsive. Would happily stay at Babb Camp again!
