Avis Quaint Cottage on Swan Lake

We went to Maine for a wedding and needed a place to stay when in town. We found this gem 💎 in the listings. It was available and looked like it had plenty of character for us. It was everything we were looking for, clean , neat and off the beaten path. The lake is beautiful, the grocery 7 minutes away on the other end of the lake was equally as amazing! Everything you can think of! We didn’t have the weather to enjoy the lake, but the calming that took place because of the atmosphere was amazing! We can’t thank the Susan and family enough for sharing there place with us. When we were finally cleaning up after are stay, we were having a difficult time trying to get the place looking as good or better than when we found it. The Bakers and their team keep a very tidy place! Keep up the great work! Thanks again for sharing 🙏 Jeff & Kathy

My family stayed here for 4 days and had a lovely time. The cottage is definitely on the small side but stocked with all the essentials including a bunch of toys which my kids loved playing with on our rainy day. They also loved the sandy beach swimming area and rocks to climb and jump off of as well as the floats and kayaks that made for relaxing and exploring. We caught (and released) 3 small fish off the dock and also watched the moonrise and stars from it. The cottage is located right across from Swan Lake State Park which we easily kayaked over to and explored (we have a State Park Pass). We also enjoyed visiting Fort Knox, Perry's Nuthouse, and Belfast which are all a short drive away. It was a lovely time!

This was a great spot to disconnect and get some much needed relaxation.
