Private lakefront escape–kayak, swim, fish & ski in ME

A quiet, spring-fed lake. A private beach. A canoe waiting at the water's edge. This 4-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom lakefront home on Little Wilson Pond has been a beloved family retreat for fifty summers — and now it can be yours too! Swim, fish, kayak, or simply sit and listen for the loons at dusk. Pick wild blueberries down the road, explore local farm stands, and experience Maine the way it's meant to be. Portland is 50 minutes away, but you may never want to leave.

THE PROPERTY:
Upstairs, three additional bedrooms with a mix of king and queen beds give everyone their own space, along with a pull-out sofa for extra guests. The bedroom at the top of the stairs has its own full bath, and a third full bathroom is conveniently located in the hall, easily accessible from the other two rooms. A second living area with games, books, and sweeping lake views is the kind of room people end up spending more time in than they expect.

Outside, a private tree-lined yard with multiple seating areas and a gas grill leads directly to the water, with a canoe, kayak, inflatables, and fishing gear ready to go whenever you are.

Little Wilson Pond is a year-round destination. Summer is magical, but fall might be even better — the foliage around the pond is stunning and the pace is wonderfully unhurried. Come winter, Sunday River is an hour away, and you can ice fish right on the pond from your own backyard — one of the most quintessentially Maine experiences there is!

GUEST ACCESS:
Guests have full access to the entire home, property, and lake — all indoor living spaces, all bedrooms, and all outdoor areas including the yard, beach, and lake equipment. Please note that two closets are locked and reserved for owner storage and cleaning supplies.

OTHER DETAILS:
Self check-in via smart lock — your unique door code will be sent 24-48 hours before arrival. Maximum occupancy is 8 guests. Guests must be 25 or older to book. No smoking, no pets, no parties or events.

Please note there is a Ring doorbell camera at the front door to monitor the driveway for your safety and for our peace of mind. We do have motion detectors active on both floors as part of a security system — these do not record video. There are no interior cameras.

We hope to visit again

The lake was so peaceful and yet accessible to Lewiston/Auburn. We were there for Bates graduation and it made the weekend more special. Thank you.

Big space on a quiet pond

Photos don't do this listing justice! It's bigger on the inside, and the sub-floor heating was the BEST surprise! Fully stocked kitchen, very clear welcome booklet and chec in/out instruction. Great and friendly communication with the hosts and prompt response to questions. Would recommend for any group. PLENTY of room for any and all people!

Comfy family time

We loved Elena’s house. What first drew us to it was the Pond view and the great bathroom to bedroom ratio. 3.5/4. We really enjoyed everything about the house! The grill outside was great, the kitchen was well stocked, we loved the extra kitchen storage space for the things we had brought. We played cards at night at the big table, and especially loved the soft sheets and comfortable beds! My teenage son kayaked every day. And we came at a time where the leaves were changing. The view was beautiful. My friend and I walked 2 miles every morning down the length of the pond. We would definitely stay again if we were in the area.
