Summer time in the Belgrades! Our cottage is located in the Belgrade Lakes Region of Central Maine. The water here is fantastic for swimming, boating and fishing - very clear and pristine. Whether you are seeking a quiet place to curl up with a book or want a place to bring your family for the vacation of a life time, you'll find it in the Belgrades. There are lots of great local hikes for all levels, boat rentals (experienced boaters, ask about ours), swimming, fishing, family activities, restaurants, theater, white water rafting and a full schedule of summer festivals. We have a 5 Star Public Golf Course, an Internet Cafe, Antique Dealers, a General Store, a Day Spa and a Strawberry Patch all within 2 miles of our cottage. You can even hire SummerSet's recommended gourmet chef during your vacation stay. We are on the main road (Route 27) which provides easy access to everything and you can easily access the town docks from our cottage if you prefer to go to the village by boat.

Further details for this holiday rental in Rome, USA

Helpful Links for Planning your Vacation: There is a binder at SummerSet for local activities (dining, boating, fishing, hiking etc.). I also provide all of our renters with an online version to help plan from away. This includes directions and area information, a dining directly, local entertainment, boating, fishing, hiking, day spa, chef services, golf, shopping, mail boat rides and more.

Something for Everyone: Boaters - Long Pond is a fantastic lake for boating and swimming. There are many coves and two large (long) sections of the lake to explore separated by a bridge at Castle Island Road. You can go to Day's General Store by boat for coffee, a fishing license, pizza, ice cream or whatever you have forgotten. The Village town dock is also available if you want to go to dinner by boat, do some shopping or antiquing. Both are easily accessible from our cottage. If you are booking in July and August, make sure you book at Great Pond Marina early. Fishermen (and women) - Long Pond is rumored to be one of the best in Maine. Golfers - Belgrade Lakes 5 star public course is on 5 minutes away. Sugarloaf, another challenging course is an hour away. Bird/Garden Lovers - You will enjoy the beautiful perennial gardens and many birds that visit the property. You may even get a visit from the neighborhood moose or deer that seem to like our garden.

Recent Updates: We are constantly working to make SummerSet more perfect. Here are just a few of the improvements: 2006 - All furniture/furnishings for home. New interior paint and fixtures. 2007 - On-demand hot water heater installed. Replaced septic tank. Added fence. 2008 - Energy efficient windows installed in bedrooms, bathrooms and kitchen. New area rugs & wicker deck furniture. More new signs:) 2009 - New comforters for our spring and fall renters, a new Queen mattress in the blue room and a new desk off the dining area.

Ski: Guest Book Comments: 'We had a great week. The house is beautiful and provided a perfect ending to our daughter’s four years at Colby. Other parents were envious being confined to hotel rooms. We will certainly spread the word about Summerset to the Colby family.' May 2008

Golf: Belgrade Lakes Golf Course is a 5 star public course. There is another very challenging course at Sugarloaf, only an hour north on 27.

Other Activities: Hiking, Boating

The Best Vacation ever.

Dix & Den Clinton, Me.
Review Submitted: September 8, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Our family was just taken away by this property. The view from the driveway for start. The home was just beautifuly furnished and the colors relaxing I can understand why this is called Home away because we were able to settle in right away and feel right at home.
The seranade of the Loons was breathtaking a long with the views. The high points for our family was the beautiful deck - to the Dock where we lounged all day and even fished off . The fire pit where we roasted smores and hot dogs. This vacation spot is for the young and young at heart - and we shall never forget this experience. We have rented properties before but this was the very best of the best and the very best vacation we have ever had. We highly recommend this for anyone who wants a RELAXING vacation and to be able to still feel relaxed at the end of it. Our two week stay was perfect. Thank you so much ~ Dixie & Dennis
Owner's Response: You had the most perfect weather of this crazy summer. Glad we did not disappoint you and that many great memories were made for you at SummerSet. Let us know if you decide to join us again.

Another Wonderful Week at SummerSet

Diane and Rick Mifflinburg PA
Review Submitted: September 9, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
For the third year we looked forward to our Belgrade Lake week, and again it more than exceeded our expectations. We enjoyed our relaxing days on the lake shore: the spacious house, the fully equipped kitchen, the dock and kayak, the shore-side sitting area, and the availability of extra bedrooms and bathrooms for our family that joined us. It was also nice to be so close to the village.

We hope we can return in 2010!

Fantastic Memories of Maine

PeteK Enfield, CT
Review Submitted: July 28, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
Our stay at SummerSet was great! Staying directly on Long Pond was amazing - great fishing, swimming, boating, tubing, and sun bathing. Heading down to Day's country store on our boat was fun and memorable.

The house provided lots of great amenities - and we loved the open floor plan, which was great for socializing with family and friends. The views of the "pond" were spectacular...and from so many different rooms! Overall, the house was very warm and inviting (and safe for the younger children in the family).

Definitely a place we'd like to visit again in the future!! So many great memories.!!
Owner's Response: So glad you enjoyed your stay. We hope you can join us gain next year.

Colby Homecoming weekend

Colby Alumna Massachusetts
Review Submitted: November 3, 2008 Date of Stay: October 2008
I stayed at SummerSet with seven girlfriends for Colby's homecoming weekend. The house was beautiful and immediately when we arrived we could watch the sunset out on the porch overlooking the lake. There was plenty of room for all of us, we were especially grateful for the three bathrooms! The house was very accessible while still feeling private. Overall, we had a wonderful weekend and really enjoyed our stay at SummerSet.

Great Vacation House

Jetta Phila., Pa.
Review Submitted: August 19, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
We had a great time at SummerSet. The house is larger than it appears on the web site. The living area is more spacious than expected. It is well equipped for small children. The lake is beautiful, clean; great for swimming and water sports. Our black lab was welcome and truly enjoyed the lake.
