Magnificent vacation
Posted Aug. 17, 2024 on HomeAwayWe loved our vacation at Camp Baumann. The house was spacious and roomy yet cozy at the same time. So fun and unique and comfy spots for the whole family inside and outside on the multiple decks and docks. Loved the kayak and paddle boards, hot tub, fire pit - you name it. Steve was an excellent host. He was very responsive to my many questions and requests for recommendations. All 11 of us had a great time.

Amazing Getaway
Posted Aug. 10, 2024 on HomeAwaySimply put, this property surpassed our expectations. An amazing home (camp) on a beautiful, quiet lake. Embden Pond has some of the clearest water we've ever seen a New England lake have. Just what the doctor ordered if you are looking for a true escape with family/friends. Accommodations were top notch, and the pool table was a wonderful bonus. Days were spent fishing, kayaking, paddleboarding and using the great swim/dive dock. Took day trips to white water rafting (Kennebec River) and zip lining and hiking (Sugarloaf). Owners were responsive and excellent to deal with. Would highly recommend this property.

Great Place
Posted Sep. 3, 2023 on HomeAwayThe home was large, with plenty of seperate areas for our group of 10. Home is deffinitly.set up for large groups - plenty of seating, cookware, towels, ect. Two great docs plus floating swim platform. We used all the water toys - 2 SUP, 2 kayaks and a canoe. In addition, rented a pontoon boat for 4 days. Dont let the word "pond" fool you, Embden Pond is a sizable lake. Steve, the owner, was very very responsive with all questions. Would highly recommend.

Perfect lakehouse
Posted Aug. 30, 2023 on HomeAwayThis was our second year and Steve does a great job with this rental. The house is pristine, well stocked and the property is amazing. We had incredible weather this year and the lake was amazing. We also rented a boat from Port Harbor Marine which was really fun. We had 13 people stay at the house and it was more than enough room. Not much going on in the surrounding towns but if you are looking for a place to just relax at for a week, this is the place for you. We will be back.

Wonderful Stay at Camp Baumann
Posted Aug. 13, 2023 on HomeAwayWe had an amazing week at Camp Baumann on Embden Pond that was accompanied by one of the best weather weeks of the Summer. The house and location were impeccable and everything you could wish for. With a pontoon boat rented from Maine Boat and the kayaks and paddleboats provided at the house, we spent a large portion of our days on the lake. We loved everything about the home, from the great room to the large bedrooms and especially the outdoor living area. We took the kids on a short hike to Reed Brook Falls with its cascading falls. Steve was very helpful and always available to answer any questions. At the end of the week, my 8 year old nephew said he stay there forever. Camp Baumann is by far and away the top vacation rental we have stayed at and look forward to returning in the near future!

Just fantastic
Posted Jan. 4, 2023 on HomeAwayWe came to Camp Baumann for an after-Christmas getaway and it was absolutely lovely. The house is huge, and so fun and quirky and personalized-feeling. We had everything we needed, and enjoyed our four days of lounging around in front of the fireplace, in the hot tub, playing pool, and watching movies on the huge TV set. The kitchen was perfectly stocked and organized. We were supposed to come with another family but they had to stay home due to Covid, but there would have been plenty of space for two families to have their own spaces, even though it didn't feel too big for just the four of us. Can't recommend it highly enough!

Fantastic Family Reunion
Posted Oct. 17, 2022 on HomeAwayMy family came from all over...California, Virginia and Florida to spend time together in Maine. Embden Pond is such a beautiful lake and this house was wonderful. Plenty of room to spread out and relax. The kitchen was so well equipped......we had everything we needed to cook big meals every night. We had a great time!!!

A Wonderful Week
Posted Sep. 7, 2022 on HomeAwayOur family of 10+ thoroughly enjoyed our week at Camp Baumann. The house itself is unique (in a good way), with lots of space to spread out, the pond (it’s really a small lake) was lovely…big enough but still relatively quiet, and the outdoor space is truly remarkable. The owner was always available to help deal with any minor issues that arose.

Incredible huge. Lots of space.
Posted Aug. 24, 2022 on HomeAwayWe loved the property. We found that the place had just about everything that we needed, except a bluetooth speaker :). I had a question or two on the first day and the host was very attentive and answered them right away. We had two families and a friend stay with us, which was a total of 10 people. We could have easily had 15 people in the house. The place is huge. The great room, or bear den as we called it is great at night for large groups and games. We rented a boat for the week through harbor marine and it worked out great. Lots of great memories at this place and it was only our first time. We will for sure be rebooking.

Perfection
Posted Aug. 13, 2022 on HomeAwayOur l family of eight adults thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The home was better than described. So much space for all of us to relax and play. We enjoy the every bit. Steve is truly a ‘super’ host and was very responsive both before and during our stay. My only question is “is it too soon to go back”?
