Penobscot House | Peace and Tranquility on Private Pierces Pond

4 Bedroom House in Penobscot

Originally built and designed for our own family, this unique and beautiful home on Pierce Pond truly is a “dream” home. It is situated on the edge of one of the most peaceful ponds in Downeast Maine. Shared with loons, herons, bald eagles and jumping wide mouth bass, Pierce Pond is one of the few bodies of fresh water that is not lined with camps and houses! And it’s also close to the magnificent coast. In 10 short minutes you can be in downtown Blue Hill or Castine and a ½ mile walk takes you to Northern Bay on the Penobscot coast.
First Level:
As you enter, you will immediately capture the incredible views. The open floor plan has a large custom kitchen with granite tile countertop, stainless steel appliances and breakfast bar/island. A fieldstone fireplace graces the living room and two large sliders open up the living and dining room to the covered wrap-around porch. To the right of the entrance are closets, a large tiled mud room for washer and dryer, a full bath and access to an oversized two-car garage. First floor has radiant heat.
Second Level:
An elegant open maple stair case leads you to the second floor where there are 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths. The master bedroom has its own master bath with 2 pedestal sinks, cathedral ceiling with pine, huge closets and sliders that open out to a balcony with one of the best views in the house. Three more bedrooms all with maple floors and another full bath are laid out to maximize the view.
Lower Level:
The walkout basement is finished with maple floors and a beautiful fieldstone hearth with wood stove. It is set up as a den with lovely windows and French doors that lead to the pond for swimming, kayaking and paddle boarding.

Summary: The house is situated on a spring fed pond that is simply beautiful. We swam, kayaked, paddle boarded, and sat on the dock to enjoy the sunset. Excursions to Blue Hill and grocery stores were easy. We hiked various trails and went to Acadia and Stonington for a boat ride around the granite islands where we saw seals. Great place for adults and kids.

Summary: We had a wonderful, relaxing stay at Pierces Pond. The house was perfect and very clean. The beds were comfortable, a very nice kitchen for cooking and plenty of books for reading throughout the house. It had everything we needed. Joanne was very helpful about restaurants and things to do. The house was very secluded on the pond. There were times when it felt we were the only ones on the pond, except for the loons. It was perfect for kayaking, swimming and sunset watching. The whole experience was outstanding.

Summary: This is our second year at this camp and we had another great visit. The home is lovely with plenty of comfortable seating and room for our 6-person group around the dining table. Sleeping areas are comfortable and the master bedroom has a very cozy king-size bed and beautiful view of the lake. It even has its own little balcony! The kitchen is well-laid out and accommodates two cooks without any problem. Be aware that it takes about a half hour to get to a supermarket so plan accordingly! This is a no-shoes-in-the-house property so bring your slippers. The lake is beautiful and very quiet, perfect for kayaking/canoeing, swimming, and fishing. It also is very close to some fabulous hikes. We love it here!

Summary: We so enjoyed our time at this house. There was something for everyone. My kids loved the basement with the piano, TV and foosball table. My parents loved the peaceful porches and balcony off the master bedroom. I loved the waterfront. Next time we’ll rent some kayaks. One of our favorite rentals of all time. Everyone was happy and relaxed.

Summary: We had an incredible experience staying at this lovely property! From the moment we arrived, it was clear that a lot of thought and care went into making this a perfect getaway. The home was immaculate and beautifully decorated, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The attention to detail was remarkable. The kitchen was well-stocked with all the essentials and more, which made cooking meals a pleasure, even though we ate out most of the time. The living spaces were comfortable and cozy, and the beds were incredibly comfortable. The house was nestled in a quiet area that provided a peaceful retreat. The outdoor space was a highlight, a wonderful dock on a small pond. Communication with the host was smooth and pleasant. They were attentive and provided excellent recommendations for local dining and activities. It was evident that they genuinely cared about ensuring we had a great stay. Overall, this property exceeded our expectations in every way. We highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable and comfortable vacation. We can’t wait to return! It was the best VRBO we have rented to date! Thank you for opening your house to us! Sandra and Family.

Summary: The Dragonfly House was a dream come true for our family. We came in and felt right at home and were surrounded by Nature which enveloped us on all sides. The fall colors were starting to come thru and provided the most beautiful glassy reflections on the pond. We were able to fish from the Dock and caught and released Bass and Pike. We saw Flickers, Kingfishers and Geese which strolled thru the yard along with the Deer traveling thru the property. We got Kayaks delivered by Skyline Kayak Rentals and circumnavigated Pierces Pond which was truly an adventure worth experiencing. The house was clean and warm as the temperature began to drop. Above all Joanne was extremely helpful in communicating with us and making us feel at home. Definitely a place to come and relax and see the beauty of Down East Maine

Summary: Joanne’s lovely home on a fresh water pond was perfect for our multigenerational family. Swimming, kayaking, hiking, paddle boarding, and exploring the Penobscot area we’re enjoyed by all. It’s a quiet and beautiful spot which we’ve enjoyed for a sec of summer. Joanne is very helpful and lovely. We’ll be back!

Summary: The house was exactly what we needed for our family vacation. The property was spacious and had all the amenities we could need. The pond was incredible- so peaceful and relaxing. We rented kayaks from the Activity Shop in town which was perfect. Joanne was a very gracious and attentive host who was always available via text for questions. The only drawback was that the trail to the pond is full of large tree roots and rocks which made it difficult to walk down there especially for some of the older people in our group. The dock was a little unstable as well but not too bad. All in all we loved our stay and would highly recommend it for a family getaway!

Summary: Our family of 8 enjoyed our stay on Pierce Pond. The pond is so clean and was great for fishing and kayaking. It is truly peaceful at the property…we never even heard any of the neighbors. However, we were delighted to hear the loons in the evening. Joanne is a wonderful host. She helped answer all my questions about grocery shopping and renting kayaks. She even borrowed some fishing poles from the neighbor and delivered them for my husband. She lives at a different property at the pond, but we were not bothered by her at all. The house had plenty of room for our family to spread out. The kitchen was well equipped for all our needs. There were plenty of towels for our large group and blankets for the cool nights. As others have said, take a sleep mask because the sun rises early and there are no curtains or blinds on the windows. Also, if you like a fluffy pillow, take your own as most of the bed pillows are fairly thin and flat. The only real negative I have about our stay was the spider webs. I realize that the house is in a wooded area, so it will naturally have more spiders. However, I was surprised to see so many webs in the corners of the rooms. If you’re heading to the Maine coast and looking for a great place to unwind and relax, I would recommend you consider a stay at the pond.
