Spacious Waterfront Retreat on Merrymeeting Lake

Imagine this… You arrive at a peaceful lakefront retreat, where the water sits just steps from the door, and the noise of everyday life fades away. Trees surround the home, the lake stretches out before you, and the pace immediately slows.

Mornings start with coffee in the kitchen as sunlight reflects across the water. Kids head straight to the private dock, ready to swim in the roped-off sandy cove, while others grab a kayak, canoe, or paddleboard for a quiet glide across the lake. The calm setting makes it easy to unplug—or simply breathe a little deeper.

Inside, the home is designed for comfort and connection. Two separate living areas with lake views give everyone space to relax, whether it’s movie night, board games, or quiet conversation. Cathedral ceilings and natural light create an open, welcoming feel throughout. A fully equipped kitchen opens to the dining area, making shared meals easy and unhurried.

Afternoons are perfect for grilling by the water, fishing from the dock, or exploring nearby wooded trails just outside the door. If you need to work remotely, fast WiFi and a dedicated workspace let you stay connected without missing the view.

As evening settles in, gather around the fire pit, watch the sky reflect on the lake, and unwind together. When it’s time to rest, comfortable bedrooms and a kid-favorite bunkroom provide quiet, cozy spaces for everyone to recharge—ready for another perfect lake day tomorrow.

This is more than a vacation rental—it’s a place to slow down, reconnect, and create lasting memories by the water.
Merrymeeting is a peaceful community, so we do not allow parties or loud gatherings at this location.
