We loved the quiet lakeside house, perfect for two couples. And awesome place for our dog to enjoy swimming. Hosts are very nice, can’t wait to come again!
Beautiful layout for our summer vacation. We Kayaked, fished, used the swim platform and had a really nice time!
Weather was perfect and lake was very clean! Our dogs thoroughly enjoyed the lake as well!
My husband, two dogs, and I enjoyed a quiet April weekend on Porter Lake. The place was exactly as described and clearly a beloved family lake house. We will certainly be back!
Great property, exceptional views....the house has great access to the lake. It snowed during our trip, so the large front windows made it a great vantage point to watch the snow and our ice fishing traps.
Jeff and Jess Davis are amazing hosts. I highly recommend their property if you are in the Strong/Kingfield area. House is spotless
and well equipped
We would definitely stay here again. Thank you Jeff and Jess.
Beautiful peaceful spot on the pond/lake. We could not have enjoyed our stay more! Clean, well equipped and tremendous view of the pond and mountains. We are already discussing going back next year. Special place!
This is a pristine property all four seasons, With a full view of the lake out of any window, you are one with nature in any season. The house is immaculate and the amenities very welcoming. The host aims to please and couldn't be more accommodating. We'll be back for sure. ssh is
Beautiful lake front home with awesome views. Very clean, cozy & spacious. Large fridge & dishwasher was a bonus. All the amenities supplied were great. Highly recommend staying here. Host was also great to deal with & replied very quickly when we had questions. Thanks for a wonderful stay.
We really enjoyed the property. The interior was nicely updated. The fire pit on the shore was perfect. The ride to Sugarloaf was a little further than expected but the coziness of camp made up for it. Will definitely consider another stay at this property.
Great spot! We just live over in Oquossoc, but what a nice little getaway! Sweet peninsula, quiet, beautiful property! Although very "moosey" to the right down the shore, we only saw an otter! Made my entire birthday! Thanks for sharing! Great spot
My family and I stayed here for Memorial Day weekend and had a great time. We couldn’t have asked for a better location or a better view of the lake! Property was clean and well maintained! Would definitely recommend this place to everyone! We have actually already booked it for this winter!
Our stay in the Lakefront home was simply outstanding. The beautiful setting, quiet location, warm water, sunny weather, and the ability to have our local family and pet join us all contributed to this wonderful vacation. Our family hopes to return to this beautiful home next year. Thanks!
Jeff and Jess’ lakefront home made for a perfect retreat to relax and take in the peace of the lake and loons. Comfortable bed, nice and clean with everything you need to enjoy yourself. Great communication with the owners throughout the process. Hard to pack our bags and say goodbye. Looking forward to returning.
