Lake Front Stay 2023
The Rental Property was very nice and all amenities were supplied. The Rental Property was nice and spacious. Our stay was enjoyable but was cut sort due to the pending Hurricane Lee heading as a direct hit so we left a day early. Otherwise the Weather was perfect temp of 68-73 each day. Lake water was perfect temp. So we relaxed as we had planed with the exception of Hurricane Lee. We will be returning... Best Wishes to the Owner making it thru the Hurricane.

A week on the lake
PROS: the view & the lake were beautiful, & quiet. The dock was very accessible. There were lots of available games & puzzles. All the kitchen equipment was in good working order & fairly well appointed . Very clean except 1 issue. CONS: Everything was spotless but a pillow case which was visibly dirty & had obvious blood on it. Thankful we had a couple of pillows with us as no extra linens were available. Bazaar set up: the main refrigerator was downstairs from the kitchen & through a bedroom into a storage/laundry room. The upstairs bedroom looked like it was an easy climb up from the living room but @ the landing it became a steep, built in ladder which was treacherous especially with a suitcase. The dock, outside area & lake were lovely but there was a scarcity of floats & water equipment. If there were more in the shed, we didn’t have access to them b/c the property manager, Tiffany, (admittedly) forgot to unlock it & didn’t let us know till the end of the week. What we thought was a grill was actually a griddle. We decided to make the best of it but the gas tank was empty. We replaced the tank (out of pocket) but the grill itself didn’t get hot enough to cook so that was a waste of our time & money. And you had to walk downstairs, through a bedroom or out & around the house to access the grill & picnic table. Lastly, kayaks were there in plain sight but Tiffany informed us it would be $25/day per kayak to use them. That is a bit outrageous.

About the host

Hosted by Lloyd & Jane Wickett

Host profile image
I was born in Old Town, Maine and graduated from the Husson University of Bangor. In the summers I worked on route 95 cutting trees through the Waterville area and then driving truck to pay my way through college. I spent the next 38 years working for a major retailer and traveled the world to purchase products. I now live in Florida but my roots are still in Maine where I was born.

Why they chose this property

I purchased this property from my cousin as we lived across the street from each other as we grew up. She could no longer give the property attention. I totally refurbished everything while keeping the size as it was due to restriction placed on property close to the water. You can no longer build on the water with a large cement pad as we have on this property.

What makes this property unique

This property is where my wife and I can finally find some peace and quiet from everyone. The looking glass mirror of the lake in the morning, the cool breeze from the water on a warm summer day or the dancing moonlight on the water at night make this a special time in our lives. Hot dogs on the open fire, burgers on the grill or fresh lobster in the pot are all great memories that last Life is memories and this is where you make them.
