Description of the Portage Lake vacation home rental
Beautiful lakeside home on Portage Lake in Northern Maine.
Amenities include: fireplaces in and out, stainless steel appliances, washer and dryer, all necessary kitchen utensils and small appliances, granite counter tops, cable, stereo with surround sound, dvd player, two car garage, bbq grill with propane, firewood, canoe, two mountain bikes, dock. Summer and winter rentals available. Hunting and snowmobiling are a big draw to the area. A hunting guide is close and contact can be set up for you. We ask that the camp be returned, as much as possible, to the condition it is found. We ask that the flowers and vegetables be watered if necessary. It is "recreational" flower watering.

Reviews for this vacation home rental in Portage Lake, Maine
My wife and I searched the Web looking for a camp to rent for a moose hunt in zone 3 . We came across Dennis and Linda's add and immediatly knew "This was the ONE" When we arrived , and made that first step into this cottage ,it was a breath-taking experiance . The pictures don't do this place it's due justice . From our first contact with Dennis , to our chats after we left , We feel like we've known each other forever .
And yes we ended our vacation with a successful hunt also . Thanks for the memories ! As Arnold would say " WE'LL BE BACK "
We have spent many a year in portage lake bird hunting and I can honestly say this was the most enjoyable, and relaxing camp we have ever rented. Everything we needed was available plus things we didn't even think about. Dennis and Linda are great hosts and know how to get guests to come back and that is key. I am already booking for next year and hopefully to make this a tradition in the years to come. After staying there, to me, there is not a better place.
Deffinately worth the trip! We stayed at this property for two weeks as our honeymoon and we're already trying to figure out when we can go back! The peace and quiet, the wildlife and the beautiful scenery was exactly what we were looking for!! Thank you to everyone who made us feel at home!
Our vacation here was divine. The "camp" is a showplace and the lot is spectacular. Our family loved the lake, especially the views and loons. Many special moments were spent in front of the outdoor fireplace enjoying the down time in a magical setting. Dennis and Linda made sure we felt at "home" and welcome and that put us at ease immediately. Don't pass up this one!
This "camp" is best described as Smart Casual! No detail has been overlooked. After 35 years of owning our own cottage (no heat or hot water and an outhouse) this Portage Lake property is a camp in name only. To us it was home for a week of r and r - great canoeing, spectacular views and the call of the loons. Dennis and Linda are fantastic landlords/hosts.
We are booked for a return visit.
This "camp" is beautiful. All the comforts of home! The lake is pristine, and wildlife abounds. Splendid vacation spot if you are looking for a peaceful & relaxing vacation. We'll be back. PS....thanks Dennis & Linda
