About this property
Mountain Escape (Waterfront on Lower Wilson Pond!)
Nestled into the woods on the shores of Wilson Pond, this cottage gives you the true feel of rural Maine. The huge deck area provides you with a great place to drink your morning coffee as you listen to the loons call. Located just 10 minutes from downtown, you will have the opportunity to see all that Greenville has to offer yet be back to serenity in just a short drive. In this area you are likely to see moose and deer, as well as other wildlife. This home is set back into a private wooded neighborhood, located directly on Lower Wilson Pond with water access direct from the property. There are excellent fishing, hunting, hiking, kayaking, and even white water rafting opportunities in the area. Lower Wilson Pond has a healthy population of Brook Trout and Landlocked Salmon. No hunting is allowed within the limits of the association. In town, there are many guides available for hire to help make your trip memorable. There is a boat launch and shared beach in the association that you will have access to.

The property was everything that I expected. Perfect location for seeing the area around the south end of Moosehead Lake. We fished Indian Pond with a Guide and caught lots of small mouth bass. We cruised on Moosehead lake on the Katahdin Steamboat. Great way to see the lake and learn the history of the area. The cabin was great with a lovely view of Lower Wilson Pond. Saw a few beautiful sunsets over the pond. Property was quiet yet close to Greenville.
Beautiful spot. Very cool albums and record player!
Beautiful, serene spot off the beaten path. Simple and rustic with modern amenities. Loved hearing the loons at night. Our dogs loved the path to the water and being able to play in and out of the water. Wouldn’t recommend for families with young children due to wide-set balusters on back deck. Perfect spot otherwise.
