Spending a short vacation on the lake is a great way to relax and unwind for a break in routine. If you’re looking for a waterfront spot for a lake getaway in Maine, we’ve found six great spots to choose from. Kayaking, anyone? There are plenty of beautiful options to choose from, the only problem is where to go first!
A truly stunning spot right on the lake, this artist's retreat really is beautiful inside and out. With a little library and access to the water right out the door, you'll find it's easy to relax here. The cabin sleeps 4 people, and living on the water's edge will have you wanting to re-book for every vacation.
Have you wanted a quiet spot to seclude yourself away for a while? This small little cabin with included kayaks and paddleboards will keep you at peace and busy on the water during your stay here. The full kitchen is ready for your needs, and this cabin doesn't need to be fancy in order to work for guests. If you like camping but with a bed instead, this stay is a great choice.
Close to the edge of Echo Lake, you'll find the Nest. This cozy spot sleeps just 2 guests, and is perfect for a quiet day away from all that troubles you. The deck is the perfect place to sit and enjoy a beautiful sunset or watch the boats on the water. It's part of a small camp community, but the friendly atmosphere means you can enjoy your peace as well.
With a dock and only a short walk to the lakeside, this cozy lakefront cottage is a great place to sleep up to six people. Watch the sunset with some marshmallows or visit one of the two restaurants on the lake while you visit. The two-person kayak that comes with the Airbnb is a great excuse to get on the water, as well. There's nothing like a kayak sunset, after all.
At the Loons' Lair, the surrounding trees and lake make for the best natural noise that'll relax you the moment you can sit down and listen. Situated on a quiet road on Minnehonk Lake, this cottage sleeps 8 and is set up for families of all ages. The lake fuels all the water in the cottage except for drinking water, and is a great way to enjoy the day if you have a human-powered boat you'd like to take out on it. It's not a big lake, but it's perfect for what it's used for.
The beautiful Graham Lake looks extra special from this quiet spot that sleeps up to 5 guests. There are even a couple canoes on the property, for those who want to get on the water instead of looking at it from the closed in porch.
Planning your next trip is easier with options, and if you happen to take photos on your trip of the beautiful lakes listed here, you should post them in our Maine Nature Lovers Facebook group! We’ll be happy to have you.
