About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Luxury Family Home / Retreat Center on Great Pond

This family home is equipped with everything a family needs and desires for the ultimate Maine vacation. Reclaimed wood floors, a chef's kitchen, 7 bedrooms, 7 full baths and 2 half-baths. The daylight basement is equipped with a copper bar, pool table, workout room... there is a place for everyone, but you will most likely find your friends and family settling in at the kitchen island or on the beautiful screened in porch. And in the evenings relaxing on the dock watching the sunset.

We have a house cleaner who completely cleans the property between rentals. Surfaces and key touch points are disinfected. We also have basic cleaning supplies accessible to guests during their stay, should any cleaning needs arise.

Four-wheel drive / 4x4 vehicles are required in winter months.

Another fantastic stay at this beautiful home! This is our second football weekend here and we just wish we have discovered this gem earlier! It’s only 20 minutes from Colby and is a great home for groups of family and friends! Couldn’t recommend it more!

Colby Football Week

This home is beautiful and amazing! Located close to Colby. Even though it was late Sept/early October we so enjoyed the lake with the kayaks and paddle boards. We even swam! The kitchen, in particular, was so well equipped! The bedding was fabulous and there was plenty of room to work or relax.

Wonderful Home, Great Location

A large group of family and friends stayed here for Colby Graduation. The home is beautiful. There is enough space for a large group to be together inside and out. The home is in an excellent location on the Great Pond, and is an easy drive to Colby College. I highly recommend booking early for graduation weekend, and hope we will get to stay again for a vacation week in the warmer summer months.

Our favorite place ever

This home is perfection. The pictures are accurate but the "feel" of the house with personal touches makes it amazing. The waterfront is beautiful and makes it hard to read your book-- you can't look away. Adults and kids were happy all week. We hope to come back here every year.

Beautiful Vacation Property

This property was perfect for a one week family vacation in one of Maine's many lake regions. The house is beautiful and well equipped. The bunk suite above the garage would be perfect for older kids. The lake is large and clean. The location is only about an hour from the coast or Freeport to allow a few day excursions. Whenever I had a question, the property manager quickly responded. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Magical Lake Fun

Belgrade lake is crystal clear, clean and massive. The area is beautiful, remote, wooded and secluded. The house has a huge dock with paddle boards and kayaks and lifejackets and towels provided. The kids were in the water ALL DAY playing. The house was perfectly set up for our needs. There's a downstairs master for my parents. And an upstairs master for us, along with 2 other upstairs bedrooms. Then my sister's family took the apartment above the garage (with six bunk beds, a TV area, kitchen, office and two bathrooms). We didn't even use the bedroom in the basement, but the kids did love playing with the games down there, including the pool table, and all the adults enjoyed the personal gym. There's even table tennis in the garage.

Beautiful Hidden Lakefront Gem!

Beautifully appointed lakefront home! We hosted our family of 12 for our son's wedding weekend. Plenty of private spaces throughout the home, as well as a great place for family gatherings to enjoy indoors or out. The property owners were very responsive and helpful, which was greatly appreciated.

This home, lake (Great Pond) and area are absolutely beautiful! My extended family of 13 enjoyed our time on the lake and the spacious home allowed us to spread out and worked out so perfectly for us. The well stocked kitchen is commercial grade which allowed room for a few chefs (and helpers) at a time resulting in several amazing meals! The property owner was very attentive which was appreciated! We hope to return and I would highly recommend this property and homeowner!

Great property in the belgrade lakes region!

Booked this house to attend a 20th college reunion (colby). 12 of us enjoyed this luxurious home and grounds with ample room for everyone and lovely amenities (canoe, stand up paddle board, gym, game room). We've already decided we want to rent again for our 30th.
