About this property

'Simple Abundance' - Timeless Maine Lakefront Cabin, Deck And Canoe

Enjoy the peace and tranquility of a quiet mountain lake, towering pines, amazing sunsets and dark night skies filled with bright, sparkling stars. Our lakefront cabin overlooks Saturday Pond, a spring-fed, crystal clear lake which is home to several loons, hawks, great blue herons, osprey and an occasional eagle and moose. The lake is 179 acres with maximum depths of about 25 feet and has bass, perch and pickerel in its waters which makes for great fishing. Saturday Pond is located in the town of Otisfield, Maine about 35 miles northwest of Portland near the Sebago Lakes region.

This charming 2-bedroom cabin is neat, clean, comfortable and has many of the amenities of home. A cathedral ceiling great room houses the living, kitchen and dining areas and provides spectacular views of the lake. Step out the living room door and enjoy your morning cup of coffee on the deck. The cabin can comfortably accommodate a family of four. The great room has a futon which can open up to sleep additional guests. Or, inquire about our other cabin located nearby - great for another family or set of friends. Your very own private compound on the lake!

Perfect for those lazy days of summer filled with swimming, canoeing, fishing (off the dock or in one of the lake’s coves), reading a book in the hammock, picking blueberries, lobster dinners, barbecues, and cooking marshmallows for s’mores over the fire pit. For a change of scenery, drive to the Maine coast for the day to swim at one of its many beaches, visit its lighthouses and quaint towns. Or, enjoy the crisp days of autumn, fall foliage and breathtaking mountain views while visiting the many antique shops, gift stores, local farm stands and country fairs. Designer outlet shopping abounds only forty-five minutes away in the Mount Washington area of North Conway, New Hampshire or about an hour’s drive to Freeport, the home of the original LL Bean store. Or, visit the many shops and fine restaurants also an hour away in the Old Port Exchange in Portland.

Beautiful cabin in the woods
We stayed 3 nights, but wished we’d had more. The cabin was totally equipped for a fun stay. The hostess was very sweet and readily available. Such a beautiful location and a wonderful stay.

Beautiful Stay
Our stay at Ellen's place was wonderful! Everything was very clean and even better than the pictures in the listing portrayed. The property was beautiful with a private dock to enjoy the lake view. Nice and quiet getaway spot!

Little piece of heaven!
I can't say enough about this quaint, well equipped cabin in the most gorgeous spot. Our family of 4 plus 2 small dogs were very sad to leave. Ellen is a wonderful host with excellent communication and the property leaves nothing to be desired.. except more time there!

Amazing cottage with a view!
We booked very last minute for a family weekend getaway. The host was responsive and super helpful throughout. She even let us check out late so the kids could kayak before we left! The cottage is adorable and well stocked. The view out the dining room window was gorgeous. We were there during leaf peeping season and the views were amazing. We loved kayaking, that we could bring our dogs, and the peacefulness there. You will definitely enjoy it!!

About the host

Host profile image
Welcome to our beloved cabin! My husband and I bought this cabin when our daughter was 15 months old. At that time, we were looking to buy a small “get-away” cabin in the Sebago Lakes Region. My sister and her family lives in Otisfield and my husband had previously lived in Harrison on Long Lake. We looked at 52 properties (to be exact), before I happened to see an ad in the local newspaper about a cabin for sale on Saturday Pond. Saturday Pond was near and dear to my heart, as I had spent many summers on the lake since I was eleven years old. My parents worked at a boys’ summer camp called Great Oaks Camp (GOC). Incredulously, the old camp’s property abutted the property of the cabin we were interested in purchasing. It was a dream come true to be able to buy this cabin, re-connect with family and old friends associated with the camp and have my daughter and my nephew spend summers on the shores of Saturday Pond as I did. We treasure our crystal clear pond, the many friends we have made and all the memories we hold of wondrous times on the lake. We hope you will have a peaceful, tranquil stay - a return to nature among whispering pines and the call of the loons. -Jim and Ellen
