An incredible gem inside and out, this lakefront retreat is just the place for your next family vacation! Spend beautiful days fishing in the lake, picnicking on the dock, playing a round of horseshoes, or playing on the grassy lawn surrounded by fall foliage! Or, host a summer cookout on the new outdoor deck with a built-in bench. Don't worry about falling off your workout routine, as this home also sports a home gym! Head inside when everyone builds up an appetite and take advantage of the well-equipped kitchen boasting stainless steel appliances to whip up delicious snacks or a gourmet dinner. If you don't feel like calling it a day just yet, enjoy a cup of hot cocoa and cozy up on the patio furniture and rug on the seasonal farmer's porch as the sun dips towards the lake. The propane firepit is a perfect place to stargaze as you reminisce with loved ones. As nights come to a close, the TV and free WiFi will keep everyone entertained until they doze off to the sound of the wind blowing through the trees outside.

Sitting along the bank of Sebec Lake, there will be no shortage of lake activities like kayaking, fishing, and boating, mere steps from your back door! When you have had your fill of spring fishing or fall hikes, make your way into Dover-Foxcroft proper, just six miles away, and grab a bite to eat. A day of hiking will be just a mile and a half from home base at Peaks-Kenny State Park for even more outdoor adventure. Don't miss out on the winter activities; this is also an excellent location for snowmobiling and snowshoeing!

Home away from home!
This truly felt as comfortable as our own home. Beautiful water frontage and yard, perfect for kiddos, dogs, kayaking and swimming! The furniture was all comfy, kitchen fully stocked. Not too close to neighbors, at the end of the dead end road. Really, it was a perfect getaway!

The best place ever!
The owners have done their job. This space is spotless, spacious, bright and airy. The windows and doors in the entire house are new, clean, and easy to open and close. The screens are tight keeping the bugs out. The kitchen has everything you could need, more then everything! The bedrooms are comfy, and have plenty of storage for your belongings. Washer and dryer and clothes line. My family rented a pontoon boat for 5 of the days we were there. We made many trips back and forth to the dock. I and my hubby are 68/70 years old. We had no problem navigating the steps in the house, leaving the house, the dock and the deck. In fact the deck has yellow lines painted on the two places you could miss the step. Thank you for that. Our two sons traveled from NJ, and our third son and his dog lives near-by. The dog loved it. Even though rain and clouds prevented us from going out on the boat a couple of days, we still nestled in and had wonderful family meals, and comfy lazy days doing "our thing" with plenty of space to roam There is no smoking in the house or anywhere on the property, meaning no designated smoking area's. Just a heads up. Its in the small print. None of us smoke cigarettes. But one has a medical Marijuana card. He took advantage while on the boat. I believe the owners have nothing to do with this, it's the management co. Bring or buy, extra toilet paper, kitchen garbage bags, bath and beach towels. Inconvenient if your flying. Vacasa's MO.

Beautiful spot on the lake
We enjoyed our stay onSebec Lake. We brought our boat and loved the private dock that went with this home. It was a quiet area with much to see. We do wish the kayaks would have been availble. The wifi wouldnt work and there is not much (if any) service but we liked to be unplugged. It was hard to plan ahead when we wanted to travel around for the day.

Happy at Sebec
We had an enjoyable experience. Getting to the property posed a slight challenge as the property has an address of 302 Shore Road N, but it is actually 301. Getting the key from the lockbox was just a bit challenging. The house is beautiful and the surroundings are spectacular. Would definitely stay there again.

Wonderful house in a wonderful spot
Great house on a quiet end of the lake. The house is amazing — in particular the kitchen. Two kids under ten, two dogs and grandparents had a wonderful time. Unusual to have such a rolling lawn down to an actual beach area. We spent most of our time on the deck near the lake which is just lovely. And it has electricity to plug in phones etc. but the screened in porch is also amazing. The kids loved playing on the rocks and swimming in a little cove. Only suggestion would be to have a book of Information at the house. It took a couple of days to figure things out — where the hot water switch was for the outdoor shower, where the grill utensils were in the kitchen, how to work the tv (roku) etc. everything is there but takes some time to figure out. We were from the area so we knew where to go for groceries, ice cream stand etc. but suspect that others would appreciate information on the area.

Perfect Three-Day Getaway
2 moms and 4 kids 10+ for April break. It was a serene and quiet break from the hustle and bustle of schedules and the pandemic. The property was perfect for outdoor activities (corn hole, football) and Peaks-Kenny State park was a stones-throw away. The property was clean, well-maintained, and well-stocked with kitchen supplies, linens, etc. While it was too early for the boat dock, docks and kayaks, these amenities will make the property dreamy in the summer. If we make our way back to Sebec Lake, we would absolutely consider this property again. Thank you!

Great Winter Getaway
Lovely property and great little cove to ice fish in! The house was clean and spacious. 'Coffee maker' means Keurig, so pack some Kcups. Only complaint would be difficulty in communicating with the rental management company (Vacasa) about early check-in and late check-out possibilities. Eventually, on the day of check-in, they told us that we could arrive early and stay late. Great winter trip!
