Never again. The house was everything we expected and more. It had what we needed to make our stay enjoyable including a kitchen with appropriate cookware, two kayaks and the most amazing views of the lake (both inside and out). In addition, the property is near many golf courses which was an added plus for my husband and son. Can’t wait to stay here again. ##### Chris K. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christina F. 13 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### An awesome home on beautiful Crystal Lake! This home was just what we needed! It is right on Crystal Lake, which is clean and warm. We spent most of the day in the water, either in the 2 kayaks or on the multiple floats provided by the owner. Sunsets are gorgeous from the porch! The home is close to a supermarket- very convenient- and only 30 minutes to Portland. Neighbors are close but they weren’t there all week so we felt like we had the lake to ourselves. The house is close to a main road so there was some road noise but we could totally ignore it, staring out at the lake or by getting back in the water! ##### Christina F.

The community is peaceful and friendly. The lake is beautiful and we were grateful for use of the property kayaks. The house is charming and had everything we needed. We will certainly return next time we visit Maine! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 20 Aug 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location The lakefront views, kids able to fish off pier and kayak in the lake were all huge pluses to the property.On the other hand- please be sure to read the fine print- one of the two bathrooms only has a tub (no shower), the two bunk bed rooms have no air conditioning, and when we arrived we had to rewash our linens. The house overall was clean but definitely dated- again if going for lake proximity - that’s great. For our party of 8, we ended up needing to check out a day early. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ---
