We had a great stay at the property. The house is beautiful and clean! We loved being able to listen to the records and look out at the pond, enjoying our morning coffee. The driveway was the only 'tough' part of the stay-backing out is a careful and concentrated task!
This is lovely house with a beautiful and quiet lakeside location. The frequent calls of loons were an added treat for us midwesterners! It handled our group of 6 adults nicely. We loved watching sunsets from the deck.
Very homey summer lake house - clearly a place with a lot of family memories and charm. Beautiful location, gorgeous sunsets. Only issue was the uneven path getting down to the dock, which was challenging for 70s/80s grandparents, and the lack of a deck ladder with handles. In general, the dock could use some TLC, but the house was great.
We had a small snafu at check in with a wrong code to the door. But even at 2AM thanks to a delayed flight, the property manager answered and was able to get us a new code and in the property. The cabin was beautiful and the lake is gorgeous. Nothing like New England in the fall time.
Great communication with owners prior to and during stay. Cabin is well stocked and spotless and very quiet. Only suggestions would be to provide an electric fireplace since you don't want the indoor wood stoves to be used. And identify the thermostats a little better and maybe put a sticker on each one as there are quite a few for a small cabin. But everything worked fine and perfect location to getaway from the bustle but close enough to Kennebunkport and the coast.
This property was so much more then we expected! We were visiting family for the holiday so we only slept at the rental but we can't wait to come back and see enjoy all it has to offer. My granddaughters ( 2 & 5) loved the toys that were provided and the sweet bedroom they shared. We adults were very comfortable and really loved sitting around at night listening to albums. With our family being new to the Lyman area we will be visiting often and hope to stay at this property.
