Lakefront Camp on East Pond

Lakefront Camp on East Pond Lakeside Serenity Awaits – Your Perfect Getaway on East Pond in Oakland, Maine! 🌅🏡🚣‍♂️ Welcome to East Pond! The downstairs bedroom has one queen bed.

Come enjoy a peaceful getaway at our camp and enjoy beautiful sunset views while toasting marshmallows and enjoying a beverage around the fire. Perfect for getting away from it all as a couple or making memories with friends and family. Enjoy a cup of coffee on the enclosed porch while listening to the loons each morning. The upstairs has been converted into bunk style accommodations where one roo

m has 1 full size bed and 3 twin beds. If you’re traveling as a couple enjoy first floor living accommodations and if you’re traveling with children the kids can sleep upstairs while the parents sleep down below! Enjoy Wi-Fi throughout the camp-perfect for any remote working professionals or streaming a movie on a rainy camp day. While the home is equipped to sleep up to 6 people, we think the perfect group size is 4. We’re happy to host more, but keep in mind it will be a little bit cozier. Sure, eating at the finest restaurants can be fun. But sometimes we all need a nice home-cooked meal, right? That’s why our kitchen is fully stocked with all the essentials you’ll need to cook you and your family a nice dinner. And because we’re in Maine we will have everything you need for a lobster bake! Please keep in mind that we run on a small septic, so please do not flush anything that is not toilet paper and try to be as conscientious of your water use as possible. Amenities:
3 kayaks and 1 canoe with paddles and life jackets are available to you at no additional cost. The shed out back holds multiple lawn games to enjoy; cornhole, kan-jam, and lawn pong. Gas grill and fire pit with roasting skewers for marshmallows / hot dogs / etc. Our littlest guests:
While we do welcome kiddos in our camp, the stairs to the bunk room are quite steep and we would not recommend for toddlers learning to walk/climb. That said, travel at your own risk! You know your child’s abilities best! We do offer a pack and play, high chair, children’s dinnerware and cups, a small selection on indoor toys and games, and beach / water toys. Accessibility:

This is your reminder that you weren’t meant to answer emails forever.

You were meant to sit by a lake, hear loons in the distance, and wonder if you should make s’mores again even though you already had two.

East Pond is waiting 🤍

S’mores, starlit skies, and your private fire pit. What’s stopping you from booking?
