Lakeside cottage with boats, grill, firepit, pet and Kid Friendly

Blueberry Cove Cottage, located on Tripp Lake in Southern Maine (Poland, ME), a few hours north of Boston, is the perfect place to get away from it all! Everything you need is right here. The rustic interior creates a comfortable, homey atmosphere and is fully equipped to insure it feels like home. While there is a tv, DVDs, and board games to fill your time inside, outside is where the fun is. Take a relaxing swim out to the raft or float on the lake in the canoe or paddleboat. Fishing is great here, from the dock or out on the lake! If you prefer to relax, grab one of the many books for some reading from the comfort of the hammock or a beachside rocking chair. The gas grill and giant picnic table will make meals easy and fun. As the evening rolls around, listen for the calls of the loons while making smores over the fire pit. You will be sure to fall in love with the beauty and tranquility of the lake and all it has to offer.

If you are up for a little adventure, some nearby attractions include the Maine Wildlife Park, two golf courses, the Oxford Casino, Oxford Plains Speedway and the beautiful causeway in Naples, home of the Songo River Queen. Within an hour you can visit Freeport, ME, home to LL Bean and numerous other outlet stores, the bustling downtown of Portland, ME, Casco Bay, Sebago Lake State Park, Bradbury Mountain State Park for light hiking, or the lovely Bethel, Maine area. While we prefer the beauty of Maine, we can’t deny the greatness of Mount Washington and all the area has to offer, such as outlet shopping, hiking, Storyland and Santa’s Village, all within a 1 ½ hour drive through beautiful scenery.

We sincerely hope you choose to join us at Blueberry Cove Cottage. If you do, please note a few things:

- The cottage is rustic and has no heat or air-conditioning. We have many fans and extra blankets to accommodate the typical New England weather changes during the summer season.
- The water comes from the lake and is not for drinking, brushing teeth or cooking. Bathing and washing dishes is fine. We will provide a gallon of fresh drinking water to get you started.
- We are a non-smoking cottage.
- We do accept pets on a case-by-case basis. Please let us know what type of pet and breed you have.

Rustic gem!
This dog friendly 2BR cottage is right on crystal clear Tripp Lake, with a large screened in porch/family room. It is small but very well appointed and maintained. The weekend we were there it was very quiet, and we had the beach to ourselves. Enjoyed kayaking, hiking nearby, and hearing the loons daily. Owners and manager were very thoughtful and responsive. Highly recommend!

My wife and I enjoyed our stay. The location was convenient to family we were visiting close by and enabled us to have a quiet and scenic place to retreat to when needed. Everything was in place when we arrived and the owners went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable.

Wonderful Little Cabin!
This was a beautiful, cute little home to spend a long weekend in. The inside was a perfect rustic setting with many books & dvds to choose from on rainy days. The outside was beautiful, the water was warm and the hammock, grill, & eating area was just what we needed. The hosts were absolutely amazing to work with and Carol was very kind and had many suggestions for things to do. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for a cabin getaway on a pond!

Perfect secluded getaway!
This cabin was the perfect, fully stocked with all appliances we could need. We had an 11 year old with us who loved the canoe and the hammock, and the fire pit and smoors! We spent some time hiking and took a trip to the wildlife park. We mostly ate in the cabin, using the kitchen and the grill outside. It was a little chilly with no heating, which we were expecting but the beds were equipped with electric blankets and loads of spare blankets to it wasn't an issue. Carol was a great host and answer all questions and checked din on us as well while we were there. We will hopefully be back in the summer when its a little warmer so we can swim in the lake!

Glorious lake experience!
Our family loved being in and on the lake. Great marsh areas to explore in the canoe. Our 12 year old granddaughter loved taking the paddle boat out to the raft. Great wildlife: loons frequently, an amazing water snake which we saw while fishing, and saw evidence of and heard a beaver. Plus the host provided the fixings for s’mores!

Perfect summer get away
What a wonderful little spot. The lake is so beautiful and the shallow beach is perfect for kids. It felt very private and all the amenities like boats and grill and large picnic table made out outdoor living easy and fun. We brought dogs and they were easily contained on the property. The house is comfy and clean. We watched movies and played cards and games--all of which were provided. The owner was very attentive though we didn't need anything while we were there. There is a grocery 5 minutes down the road. This was the perfect summer get away. Having had such a good time it's easier to face going back to school and work now that fall is coming. Definately recommend this lovely little slice of heaven.
