You're going to love surrounding yourself with the beautiful trees of this amazing, updated home! Featuring a brand new private, huge seven-person saltwater hot tub, furnished patio, a gas grill, and an enclosed yard with a firepit. This two-story house is perfect for your next Maine vacation, no matter what time of year you visit.

Inside, the living room is dressed in burnished wood accents, comfortable furniture, and lots of natural light streaming in through broad windows at every turn. After a busy day of skiing, hiking or sightseeing, sit back and relax while you soak in our new hot spring spa surrounded by mother nature and gaze up at the beautiful stars above! When you're done enjoying a summertime hike or day at the lake, watch your favorite Netflix TV shows and movies while the private washer/dryer knocks out all that dirty laundry. The gourmet kitchen is full of stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and attractive cookware that will make family meals a joy to prepare in the oven with a built-in air fryer.

Winter guests will appreciate a location right on the snowmobile trail, and summer visitors will be near the lake for entertaining afternoons in the water. When it's time to wrap up an evening, you'll have three full bedrooms, two with queen beds, and the third with a twin bunk with a trundle and an additional twin bed. The loft has a king bed, TV, and a wood-burning stove - the ideal setting for a luxurious sleep or some privacy with a favorite novel. The home's high-speed internet and free WiFi make it quick and easy for remote workers and students to complete their projects on time. You'll even have AC units in every room, so it will be easy to keep cool on those hot summer days.
