Autumn on Phillips Lake
The house is exactly as described. It was spotlessly clean and comfortable. The beds and bedding were wonderful. The internet was fast and worked well. It is not an appropriate house for anyone with mobility issues; there are 13 stairs from the entrance to the main level/ kitchen, living room, master bed and bath. The window wall provides a beautiful view of the lake. We did make a fire in the fire pit one eve and took the kayak out. Communication with host Steve was great. Thank you for offering your home!

Beautiful solitude.
The view of the lake as the sun rises is stunning. We absolutely loved our stay at the lake house. It is so quiet and peaceful. The listing is very accurate and Stephen the manager is great to work with and if you have any questions he gets back to you very quickly. We spent a week exploring Maine and used this as our home base and it was as beautiful as everything else in the state.

Great Lake House
We had a wonderful summer vacation at Steven's place on Phillip's Lake and definitely recommend staying here. We had my parents and elementary aged children with us. We appreciated that there were 2 bathrooms (one on the top level with the 2 bedrooms and a larger bathroom on the "middle" level with the kitchen and 3rd bedroom). You walk in on the lower level which currently has 2 "sitting rooms", one with a loveseat and built in shelving and another open area with a large "L" shaped couch looking out over the lake. We loved the kayaks and beach area. Please drive slow around the lake. The road is curvy, hilly, and a pedestrian walkway. Plan your trip accordingly as you will need about 7 minutes to make the drive going a safe speed. This is a very beautiful location, and you won't be disappointed for picking this house for your vacation!

Family 4th of July on the lake
What a fantastic time! The property is beautiful - private and quiet. The home is spacious and clean with great lake views. We went on walks every morning and spent time on the lake front beach - evening campfires with s’mores! We did a little fishing off the dock and watched the fireworks around the lake on the 4th. Our 5 year olds had a blast. Host Stephen was awesome! We are looking forward to another family trip here soon!

Highly Recommended!
This is my family's second stay in the past three months. Both stays were absolutely perfect. The view out the window is breathtaking! The weather was better on our second trip and we were able to take advantage of the lawn chairs down by the lake. The lake is very beautiful, graced by small mountains in the distance. Even though it was Memorial Day weekend, we only saw a few boats on the lake. We highly recommend this home!

Beautiful Property
This is our second stay at the Lakehouse. The view is beautiful with all the windows on the front of the house. The essentials are provided as listed and new kitchen appliances have been added since our first stay in 2022. Steve is super helpful and keeps the communication line open. I recommend this host and this Lakehouse.

Amazing Lake house
Quiet getaway location. House was clean, stocked with everything you could want. Comfortable beds with upgraded bedding and towels. Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor are about an hour drive, which was perfect for us, I’ve stayed in Bar Harbor in the past but MUCH prefer this quiet get away. We used the kayaks to explore the lake. Only reason for 4 stars on check in, it was raining quite hard on our arrival and I struggled with the lock box, spotty service and the WIFI password wasn’t on site. Stephen was quick to respond with the password when I requested it. I will definitely plan a future trip back to this amazing lake house.

The home was immaculate and beautifully and fully furnished. The owner was responsive to our needs and questions. It was a bit of a drive to food, restaurants, and points of interest, but wonderfully quiet and secluded. The lake was tranquil and great for water sports and swimming.

Fantastic Maine Lake house
Steve’s house has everything you could possibly need for the quintessential family Maine lake vacation. The house is super comfortable and has an amazing view of the lake. Even better it comes with two beautiful kayaks. This is our second year staying and it’s our summer vacation go to. It’s perfect for families and really anyone.

Bar Harbor Escape
House is across street from lake-short walk from house. We enjoyed the fire pit every night and kayaking every day! Host was very accommodating. Lots of steps in house so might not be appropriate for people with mobility issues. We had a hard time regulating the temperature (got very hot in upper bedrooms) but was cool downstairs. Good Wi-Fi. Easy drive to Acadia and Bar Harbor (about 1 hour with 2 turns) which we did multiple times during our week. Brought bikes which we used around lake and Acadia. We appreciated the kuerig coffee and well stocked kitchen. Would highly recommend this for anyone that wants to enjoy Acadia, Bar Harbor and lake kayaking! Great family vacation. (We were 6 adults)
