Spend a quintessential summer in Maine at this darling, lakefront cottage on the shores of McGrath Pond. Once featured on Magnolia Network's "Maine Cabin Masters," this home has been lovingly restored as a true family gathering space.
This picturesque cottage sits near the northeastern corner of McGrath Pond, a spring-fed body of water that flows into Salmon Lake and the five other interconnected Belgrade Lakes. It's a wonderful setting for swimming and kayaking, taking afternoon naps in the hammock, and roasting marshmallows around the firepit at the water's edge. The town of Oakland is two miles east, while bustling Waterville and renowned Colby College are about four miles beyond.
Enter by way of a beautiful side deck, where you can barbecue in the afternoons, dine alfresco at sunset, and relax in the evenings while listening to the call of the loons. Inside, the cottage was renovated in a way that kept its charms intact, offering lofty ceilings, exposed crossbeams, and natural wood at every turn.
The living space is lined with windows, allowing you to admire the view of the lake whether you're cooking in the open kitchen, chopping vegetables at the island, or kicking back on the sofas to play cards or stream movies. Two inviting bedrooms, a sleeping loft, and complimentary WiFi are provided as well.
