Well maintained beautiful home on a stunning piece of property located close to town and Saddleback. Very comfortable accommodations and great amenities. We loved the hot tub after skiing. Property management great to work with, when we encountered a small issue it was resolved.

Perfection
Winter in Maine can be ... a challenge. By the end of our stay we were hoping for a blizzard so we wouldn't have to leave. The house is probably even more spectacular in summer or fall. In significant need of a break from ... "all this" ... we found it at Windy Cross. The grounds are beautiful, right on the lake. You'll find yourself lost in thought, gazing at the waves, the trees, the weather, the sun or moon glinting off the water, the dazzling stars ... before you know it you've managed to be truly in the moment and far from the worries that made you seek this experience out in the first place. We hope to go back some day.

Beautiful home, great for large groups
My family and I had an excellent stay. The home is absolutely beautiful and met all expectations. The beds were comfortable, the home was warm and well cared for, we also really enjoyed the ping pong table! The kitchen was a little small, which made it difficult to navigate with >2 people in it. The proximity to skiing and snowmobiliing was on point. This will be our new go to spot when we head north for a winter escape.

Over rated location....
We enjoyed our stay because we made the best of a questionable situation. This property is listed as a quality /quaint place to stay. Do not go into this with high standards for the cost. Maybe at half of the price, and maybe in the summertime. It does have a nice layout and space, but it needs some work and repairs. Bring your own water to drink and make coffee with. This would not be my first choice should I ever stay in that area again.
