Excellent accommodations beautiful place

Had a wonderful time, plenty of things to do. The Songo River place was very relaxing with the deck and swimming area. Met the owner John, he was very informative about the surrounding area and what to see and do. Very close to Sebago Lake. Overall would return the next time we come to Maine.

Roomy Retreat

Our group of 14 (6 adults and 8 kids ranging from 3-18) had a super week at John and Andrea’s place. There was plenty of room for us all and the layout of the house worked well for our group. The new dock was beautiful and much used during the week for swimming & kayaking. We also enjoyed the ping pong table and fire pit. Kitchen was well equipped for a group our size. River traffic was high on Saturday but light the rest of the week and did not interfere with our enjoyment of the dock and river. Host promptly answered our questions. Very enjoyable week!

Charming house on Songo River

Perfect sized house for our large group. Only a few concerns if you have elderly family members: there are several transitions that can be trip hazards and also some low spots in the floors, most likely from the building settling. Many cabins in Maine have additions added to accommodate larger families- watch Maine Cabin Masters episodes. We also experienced a Maine heatwave that made it a little uncomfortable with no AC for some of the older ladies. This was unusual weather so we cannot fault the host. Fishing was slow on the river but most of us were able to catch some bass and small yellow perch. We chartered with Captain Glen at Sebago River Fishing if you want a great fishing experience. We enjoyed using the canoes and paddling up to Brandy Pond. Our greatest accomplishment for our stay was watching our 9 year old nephew overcome his fear of jumping from the dock into the river. He spent hours swimming in the river. This was great because he usually spends too much time playing video games. The internet would go down many times each day and need to reboot.

Great place for a big family

The Songo River Lodge is an excellent venue for a large family. Lots of space to spread out. Dock is 30 feet wide and has plenty of space for sunbathing, watching the boats go by as they pass through the Loch, or a great place to tie up your own boat. We very much enjoyed the Lodge. The big plus was the number of bedrooms. The beds were comfortable. The two living areas allow for relaxation and quiet times. The Kitchen was adequately furnished with cookware and appliances. However, the door to the refidgerator does not fully open and makes it difficult to use. The enclosed porch/dining area was large enough to hold the entire family. The owner was quick to respond to any issues that came up. I do recommend this property however, you should contact the owner directly to ensure that you bring everything that you need. We brought our own linens as indicated on the web site. These were not necessary as there were linens provided. Bath towels were in short supply and we were lucky to have brought those along as well. There are many floor level changes throughout the house. They can be trip hazards and should be something that you consider if you have anyone in your party that has mobility issues. Overall it was a wonderful week and the Lodge was very comfortable.

Perfect for multiple families

Property is great for multiple families! Right on the Songo River with access to both Long Lake/Brandy Pond and Sebago. We had kids ages 4-14 and all had a great time jumping off the dock and fishing. We rented a boat and enjoyed days tubing and hanging on the sand bars at both Sebago and Brandy Pond. Owners were very responsive to any questions.

Big place with a great dock and beautiful water

Not many places that can sleep 15 and give you great spaces outdoors. We had a terrific time hanging out on the big dock and jumping in the 12’ deep pristine river to cool off. We had a canoe race, ping pong tournament and huge family dinners. If your not super fussy this is a perfect place for your big family to gather and enjoy. The State park just .5miles gives easy access to hiking trails and camping for overflow family members. The boaters that pass by are friendly and a source of entertainment.

Excellent vacation

Everything that was advertised was excellent. The weather cooperated, the new deck was used most of our stay for swimming, fishing, canoeing and lounging. Our teenagers enjoyed the table tennis and workout room. Bedrooms, kitchen etc were all perfect. John, the owner was most accomodating and friendly.

Songo River Lodge - The Best Rental in the Sebago Lake Area!

We have family all over the United States (NH, ME, NY, VA, FL, KY, and AZ), so when we started discussing where to hold the family reunion we decided on Sebago Lake State Park. That was the easy part! Who knew there were so many vacation rentals in the Sebago Lake area -- not to mention we had no idea the proximity of these rentals to the Park. The deciding factor for our family renting Songo River Lodge was the accommodations -- 3 king beds, 2 queens, 3 doubles, and 1 twin. Most of the other rentals had double and queen beds and no kings! That coupled with the 3 bathrooms made it an easy decision. Little did we know we had selected the best rental property in the Sebago Lake area!! John and Andrea were very accommodating and made the whole rental process very easy. They greeted us upon our arrival, showed us around the property, and made us feel right at home. Not only does the Lodge have all the wonderful living/sleeping space; but the dock, fire pit, hammock, grill, and picnic tables allowed our family to enjoy the great outdoors. The biggest hit with our family was corn-hole – we had many fun hours spent playing this game! We also enjoyed visiting with the many boaters who were waiting for the lochs to open and even had one boater try to pay us the $15 fee for passing through the lochs! We have many special memories of this family reunion and most of them are at the Songo River Lodge! Thank you John and Andrea!!

Great place for a family vacation!!

From the start, the owners were friendly and helpful to assist in planning the vacation. They were eager to share their knowledge of the area and help you find closest grocery stores and area activities. When we arrive we found the lodge to be very clean and welcoming. There are lots of activities for all age groups (our family consisted of ages 4 – 85 years old). We held card and ping pong tournaments , canoe the river, swim off the dock, fishing, bike riding and relaxing around the great fire pit roasting marshmallows. The place is large enough that if you wanted to just relax and read a book, you are sure to find a quiet place. I recommend this place to anyone!!!

GREAT VACATION HOME

we were nervous renting a home without seeing it first but we were pleasantly surprised. the lodge is very nice and big enough for the 13 of us! Not only was there plenty of space but everything you could need is there. The house is on the river but the Sebago state park is right down the street. the dock is lovely to sit out on and watch the boats go by. catch some rays, read a book or enjoy a cocktail! the canoes were great for getting around on the water. we enjoyed the fire pit almost every night! Loved the antique stores everywhere and the closeness of any kind of store you need. would recommend to large families or a group of friends. if you have a boat it would be perfect!
