Maine Cabin on Beautiful, Quiet Lake....Close to Ocean

Pine Needle Cabin is available for rent on scenic Bauneg Beg Lake in Sanford, Maine. A little over an hour north of Boston; 40 minutes south of Portland, ME; about 20 minutes to the Marginal Way in Ogunquit; 30 minutes to the lobster docks or beach at Kennebunkport; an hour to an hour and a half to the White Mountains of New Hampshire. There is an 18-hole golf course under 5 minutes from the cabins, with a Par-3 and miniature golf course another 5 minutes down the road. There are wonderful hiking trails, bicycling tours, and terrific kayaking – lake or ocean. Unlimited day trips to other parts of Maine or New Hampshire. Bauneg Beg Lake is very clean and quiet, with swimming, fishing and boating. Cabin is located on the east shore, getting full day sun for great swimming, and beautiful sunsets!
Pine Needle Cabin is a rustic 1-story cabin on a sloped site directly overlooking the lake. The cabin was built around a turn of the century ice-fishing house from a lake in NH - now the living room - with dark wood paneling and fireplace with wood-burning stove. There is an entry foyer, kitchen/dining area, bathroom with shower, and a large screened in porch -- with an eating area, chaise lounge and cushioned chairs, to enjoy the lake at any time of day.
There are 3 bedrooms -- 2 with double beds & 1 twin bed with a trundle. The exterior of the cabin was recently renovated – new metal roof, stone chimney and cedar shakes. There is a dock for swimming, sunning and fishing at lakeside. There are a rowboat and kayaks for your use. There is also a boat ramp on the lake if you wish to bring a motorboat or sailboat. The cabins are open from the beginning of June through early October, and available on a weekly rental basis from Saturday to Saturday. ...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Quaint cabin in nice location
Nice spot on the lake, close to the shore as well. Camp is located well in from the roads so no concerns with traffic while staying there with our dog. Great screened porch. Although we didn’t get an opportunity to use them as the weather was cool it was nice to have kayaks and PFDs available if you were so inclined. Easy drive to explore the coast from the cabin. Lovely walks/small hikes nearby. Also close to shopping and Shain’s which was great!

Slice of heaven
This was absolutely amazing. Everyone was wonderful around us. The lake is beautiful with a great breeze. The cabin is enchanting and we truly wanted to stay forever. It’s rustic charm enraptured us from the start and there was no shortage of fun. Our kids least favorite day was the one we ventured away from the cabin to go to York. They much preferred to be at the cabin, fishing, boating, fires, s’mores, games. We can’t wait to go back and Jan is so responsive. Everything was impeccable. If you’re a luxury hotel with room service type of person it may not be for you but for us it was heaven.

Memories made
Cute little cabin. A bit cluttered with unnecessary furniture and dishes. No place to put our food. Little ants on counter and in cupboard. Bit of a hill to the fire pit. Caution if you aren't steady on your feet. View was incredible, swimming was amazing. Neighbors were nice. Overall we had a great vacation with lots of laughs and made great memories.

Our experience at “On Golden Pond,” in Pine Needle Camp, Bauneg Beg Lake in South Sanford, Maine
We enjoyed our stay at this property. The cabin is clean, quaint and rustic, very well furnished and serves well as the base camp for a very enjoyable stay. Whether you’re sitting on and looking out from the screened porch or sitting on the dock or swimming or kayaking, the water view with mountains in the background is as placid and as simple as you would hope for. You unwind instantly. And the location is so central to so many interesting places, museums and restaurants in this area of Maine. The owners/property managers are very informative and responsive to any questions or concerns you may have.

Cozy Cottage on Bauneg Beg Pond (or is it a lake?)
Pina Needle Cabin is quaint and comfortable, with a large screened porch for enjoying views of the water without bothersome bugs. For the most part the lake is quiet, disturbed only by the call of loons and the sound of cool breezes through the trees. But, as the owners point out, the lake gets busy, and noisy, over the weekends, with a parade of pontoon boats crisscrossing the pond and personal watercraft zipping around. However, early mornings and evenings were pleasantly peaceful with an occasional kayak passing by and a view of beautiful sunsets against the backdrop of Bauneg Beg Mountain (or is it a hill?). One word of caution that other reviewers mention and you should consider when selecting this property: the neighbor to the north of the cabin is definitely noisy! The music wasn’t constant, but when it was on, it was loud and obnoxious. The owner of the property had the courtesy to ask if the music was too loud, but was offended when we told him that it was. He eventually turned it down only to turn it back up the following day. Another aspect of staying at Pine Needle Cabin is that, for the sake of the septic system and the quality of water in the pond, no toilet paper goes down the toilet. For most people this isn’t a big deal, but you should be aware that this is the practice before you decide to rent this location. Overall, I would recommend staying at Pine Needle Cabin. It is reasonably priced, well equipped, and easily accessible. Jan and Ed provide lots of helpful information for your stay. I’m glad they are willing to rent to strangers and share their unique and lovely little cottage for others to experience.

Pine Needle Cabin is wonderful, especially the porch
Our family of four and the dog just spent a week at Pine Needle Cabin. This is a small, rustic cottage with the best screened porch that runs across the entire front with a great view of the lake and a large table to have all our meals. The cabin was very clean, firm mattresses, plenty of utensils, pots and dishes, but you have to be creative with counter space and places to store dry goods. You are very close to your neighbors so we kept our dog leashed at all times so he didn't wander. Having the use of 4 kayaks was great to explore the lake. There are two narrow small docks. We did put a chair on one to read but that didn't leave a lot of room to maneuver around it. Jan was a great communicator and we would happily stay at this cabin again.

Quiet property, great fishing
Overall a very relaxing stay at this small rustic cabin on the lake - property as described in posting. Many pros: quiet setting, awesome screened in porch, two docks with access to 4 kayaks and a rowboat, great fishing, within 5 minutes of yummy ice cream and lobster rolls, and excellent communication with property owner. One con: hard to keep the rugs/floors clean with the kids coming in from the lake and from the pine pitch.

The property was perfect for my family of 5 and a dog. The house is small, but uses the space wisely. We spent most of our time either outside or on the porch. The porch is the best.

Loved our stay at the rustic cabin
We had stayed on Bauneg Beg Lake probably 15 years ago and we loved it. So when I found this Rustic little cabin we rented it and the owner was very easy to work with. We met her daughter while at the cabin and she was very nice and friendly. If there was anything I would like to see changed it would be better lighting in cabin. If I had the opportunity to stay again at the cabin I would.

Perfect lakeside cabin
It was exactly what we had hoped for. It was secluded and the cabin is well equipped. We spent most of our time hanging out on the dock and swimming. The screened in deck was lovely and helpful as we had our dog with us. We loved our stay.

Heaven!
We had a wonderful time at Pine Needle Cabin and can't wait to go back! Being right on the lake was heaven. When we weren't all in the water, grownups could sit on the lovely screened-in porch and watch the water sparkle and the children swim (which was often!). It is rustic, as it says in the description, but very cozy, clean and comfortable, and the antiques fun to look at. Neighbors at times enjoyed some loud music and bright lights in their yards, and there were more motorboats and jetskis than we would have expected most days for a lake of its size, but we would still consider it a very peaceful place. The owners were kind and quick to respond to questions. Our only complaint is that our week went too quickly!

Quaint Cabin on Lake Bauneg Beg
My family and I had a fabulous vacation this July at this quaint, small cabin on the lake! Mind you, we had 4 adults and 2 children and it was cozy, but we loved that! The screened in porch was amazing, especially for our dog, Olive, to enjoy spending time with us! The lake was fabulous and there’s a dock in the shallow water to jump from and steps to get back up onto the dock, which was great for our two younger children! Close to the coast- we went to York or Wells every day and was only about 20-30 minutes. The owners were very nice and were great at communication, along with all of the neighbors who were also very friendly! We will definitely be staying here again for a quiet, Maine getaway away from the hustle and bustle of staying on the sea coast! Highly recommend if you’re looking for a laid back, relaxing, lake side vacation!
