100' of Little Sebago Lake frontage: Enjoy the simple life & endless family fun!

This is the perfect unpretentious cottage for family fun with 100 feet of frontage on Little Sebago Lake! Enjoy a large lawn that leads to a sandy swimming area. Dock and small (10foot wide) boat ramp makes for easy access to this hidden cove. Cozy cottage has 2 private bedrooms but the ability to sleep ~8 (if you don't mind a snug fit!): 1st room has queen bed, 2nd room has 2 bunks (4 beds total), living room has 2 couches and 3-season-porch has sofa-bed. 2 crib mattresses are under the bunks in 2nd bedroom. Main bedroom overlooks the serene lake. Lower level family room has large comfy sofa, cable TV, half bathroom and washer/dryer. There is a blow up mattress in the laundry area. Family room leads to 3 season porch with French doors to the lake. There is a pull out sofa in the porch but please note: the porch has only supplemental heat (not good for winter/cold nights). Great flat yard for sports or cornhole. Stone patio with fire pit and a unique stone fireplace built in 1953. You can usually find plenty of water toys at the house, including paddle boards, kayak, canoe, blow up boat, floats etc (please note: we can't guarantee availability of toys/outdoor accessories, ask if you're hoping for something specific!)!

Banjo Cove is known as Hidden Cove due to the hidden location from the lake - perfect for swimming or jumping off to the floating raft. There is also a basketball hoop in our driveway. Smith Road dead ends after our house making for a very peaceful, quiet neighborhood. Located just 6 miles from I-95 & a few mi from shops & restaurants in downtown N. Windham this could be the perfect lake location to avoid traffic & crowds - yet only 20 MIN FROM PORTLAND!

If you're considering a late fall/winter - you won't be disappointed with all of the things to do!

Nice Fall Stay
We traveled up from Portland by car. easy to get access to. Good communication. Pretty place next to a portion of the larger lake. House is nice and cozy. Access to the water directly from the back. Good internet. Easy to use HVAC system (we needed heat, only. We did not make use of the available window AC units). Provided sheets and pillows are adequate. If you're driving in, consider bringing your own, but that is a preference and not a ding in any way. Recommended.

Fall getaway
We had one day of rain during our short visit, but took it as a day for just hanging out and relaxing. Our dog loved every minute of it. She got to sniff all the new sniffs. We met a couple of the neighbors; one was extremely nice, Bill. The bed was super comfy. Met the cleaning lady on the way out. She was very sweet and had beautiful blue eyes :-)

Amazing spot on Little Sebago
We had a fantastic week staying at Melanie’s cabin on Little Sebago! The house has a great waterfront, on a protected cove that made paddling, fishing, swimming, and sitting on the dock so enjoyable. We met a number of the neighbors, who were all extremely friendly and welcoming. There is so much to do in the area, but the highlight was seeing the fireworks on the lake! The cabin had everything we needed for a great vacation!

Amazing Family Vacation
We had such a great week. This place offered everything we wanted. We had 4 teenagers and 2 adults. We spent most of our time fishing and swimming. We did bring our own canoe, paddle board, kayak and water floats. There are pine needles everywhere so we had to rake the yard and the water everyday. The dock was great for fishing and tying up our canoe. It was nice to have access to picnic tables and a gas grill (we did bring our own propane tank and had to take the grill apart to clean it before we could use it). The master bed was very comfortable but the bunk beds were not suitable for 4 teenagers so 2 of them slept down stairs on the couches. It was a hot week so the 3 air conditioners were necessary. The kids downstairs wished they had had a fan. The kitchen was well stocked and had what we needed. Minor inconvenience, I didn't know we needed to bring our own toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap, dishwasher detg until we ran out. We made several trips to the store which is only 10 min away so it worked out. Overall, this was one of the best family vacations we've had and we hope to be back next year.

Beautiful, peaceful and relaxing!
This was just the location and place I needed to attend a week long rug camp. I could bring my dog, enjoy the lake view and go exploring to local craft stores, thrift shops, restaurants etc. If more friends had joined me in the rental, it would have been very tight. there was really only one master bedroom, and the pull out couch had the typical "bar in your back", the bunk bed room was not suitable for adults.

Not as nice as it could be
Not as well kept as it should have been. We had to clean dog hair in all of the rooms before we could sleep there. We had to rake leaves and pine needles from the lake before the grandchildren could swim. We cleaned the paddleboards and other beach toys before useing. There was standing water in the laundry room which was starting to mildew. That said, we did have a very good time. Meline was very nice to talk with, she just neefs to have a better maintence team . That said, we did have a very good time.

Perfect lake getaway
The lake house is a perfect place to decompress and re-energize, very peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. The house is equipped with everything you need for a great stay. Located right on the pond, walks on the ice with coffee were a morning ritual. Very quiet neighborhood and located about 5 minutes from stores/Seacoast fun park. Tubing was a blast! Dinner at the Deck House was really good. Portland was only 30 minutes away with lots to do and see there. This was our 2nd stay here and will definitely plan on a 3rd. Thank you Melanie!

September is beautiful in Maine
When we arrived we did notice a few things broken which we told the owner and she was very responsive. figuring out the light switches was interesting just simple labels would help. The outdoor area was beautiful and the area very quiet which we liked. Very convenient to Windham center, Freeport and Portland. I think it would be great for families.

Great camp in a quiet Cove on little Sebago Lake
This is my second year at this camp. It's located in a quiet Cove and is very close to the town of Windham that has everything you could possibly need. Approximately a half an hour takes you to the ocean Waterfront in Portland and the Old Port area. Hope to be going back there again next year.

Lovely lakefront getaway!
My mom and I really enjoyed our week at the lake (minus the rainy weather)! The house is in a great spot—a quiet little cove perfect for swimming—and was cozy and clean overall. There were a few minor issues like dead lightbulbs and well-worn cookware (I left some nonstick frying pans behind for future guests; you’re welcome), but no biggie. It’s a great property for families, and you won’t regret booking it. Melanie is awesome w/communication as well!

Location is excellent, a great place for kids
My family had such a wonderful time at the lake, and the cove was perfect to keep the kids in sight and safe. It was quiet and the neighbors were friendly (although it's difficult to stay quiet in the cove, the neighbors didn't complain). There were plenty of beach amenities for all (kayaks, floats, docks, etc.). A couple of minor opportunities for improvement: the kitchen utensils were pretty rough, there weren't a lot of pillows and blankets were scarce. The kitchen could use a deep cleaning. These are small things in the grand scheme, but the devil can sometimes be in the details.
