About this cottage rental
Honey pine walls through the space, cathedral ceilings with ceiling fans. New furniture including sofa bed, chairs and tables! Swim platform located about 30’ from the dock, swim out and relax on the floating platform. No diving please. The depth ranges from 5’-7’ deep depending on the weather and season. Use at you’re own risk. New for 2025 - freshly painted exterior, quartz counters and bathroom, black stainless steel appliances, pots, pans and dinnerware.
67’ of private waterfront on pristine, Thompson Lake, rated a “top 10” lake in Maine, Thompson Lake is in the top 5% of cleanest/clearest lakes in Maine. (It ranks 24 out of 410 lakes). Spring fed lake with views 35’ down, excellent fishing cold/warm species. 4426 acres of peaceful lake to enjoy wildlife such as loons, eagles, moose, etc… Many new upgrades including: new TV's and DVD players (cottage does not have cable/dish tv), high end memory foam/latex beds and linens, wood stove, newly painted themed rooms, fire pit and patio area. Recliners and custom made hickory dining set. 5 minute drive from the Oxford Casino, restaurant and sports pub! Lots of special touches include added up-lighting along the walkway and new crushed stone driveway and 2024 Monument grill to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. The property is quiet and relaxing - if you are looking to "party" this isn't the be the best fit. Thompson Lake prides itself on a being different from other lakes like Sebago and Long that tend to attract a rowdier clientele. Come in April or May for top water salmon fishing on the lake or enjoy the full benefits of being on the water in high season June, July and August and September. Nothing beats the New England foliage season topped off with a wood stove or fire pit on cool nights in October. Rent a boat and take in the spectacular foliage from the water along with local treats such as apple picking and pumpkin pies. For those renting the property in months requiring heat, please note the main source of heat is the wood stove. It works very well to maintain a comfortable temperature and space heaters are also provided for supplemental heating if necessary. Please note: July and August rentals are Sat-Sat only.
Located just 2 1/4 hours from Boston & 40 minutes from Portland.
Grill, fire pit, screened porch, open deck and hammock. Amazing sunsets - west facing views. Full kitchen and bath, renovated in 2008 as well as an outdoor, enclosed shower. P
Half acre lot with ~900sqft, 3 bedrooms, sleep sofa and indoor/outdoor sitting/dining.
Great combination of “camp” and “modern home”. Easy drive to restaurants and entertainment. Rent a boat at the marina and visit the many coves and islands on the lake. I provide a kayak, canoe and relaxation station float (use at your own risk). Located directly across from the cottage, visit "The Outpost" by boat for beverages, pizza, ice cream and more! 2016 new docks with picnic area. Great swimming right out front your door! Pet friendly. Discounts available for repeat or multi-week renters.
Please note - the owners pontoon boat will be located on the dock during the season however there is ample room if you want to dock your own boat (22' ) as well as have access to the canoe/kayak from the dock. If you notice I do not have a lot of reviews during the summer its because almost all the prime weeks are reserved by the same guests each year.

This place was perfect for what we needed. We were attending a wedding and my mom and aunt came up to watch our infant. It was a perfect disconnect from the real world, located close to the venue (oxbow beer garden), and a perfect place to spend time with family. Lots of games and movies, and everything we needed in the kitchen. So thankful to have gotten to stay in this beautiful place.

We really enjoyed our stay! The weather wasn't cooperating but we did get a few days to take the boat out and fish. It was cold at night but the woodstove heated the home nicely. We had our two dogs with us and the back road was perfect for walking them. Even saw a few deer. Glad for leashes!
The home has plenty of items to make your stay comfortable. We watched movies and played games and didn't miss WIFI except for Thursday football. The first night, we arrived late since we had a flat on our boat trailer. Waited 3 hours on the highway and then it poured. It was cold and damp and the woodstove was a life saver. The smoke alarm went off, when starting it, as couldn't find the fan switch initially. After that we were all set. Directions for all other items were nicely documented in your book. We had two days of strong wind and rain. Bailed out the pontoon and the canoe the first night and also saw that the wind moved one of the docks closer. White caps on a lake will do that. The seal around the freezer on the refrigerator was pretty moldy. I'm sure with the change in temps it doesn't help to keep clean. Did find some cleaning items and scrubbed for a little while. Other than that, the work that you have done to update the cabin is beautiful and is a very peaceful spot. You are indeed very fortunate. Thank you for sharing your special spot.

Had a relaxing week on Thompson Lake. Jeff was a great host and is quick to answer any questions. The property is stocked with everything you could need- all you need to do is show up and relax!

The screened in porch was our favorite place to enjoy views of the lake; especially at night free from mosquitos. In fact, it was our dogs favorite spot as well. Beds were comfortable and having experienced sleepless nights in other Vrbo locations it was perfect. The only thing that would have made this location perfect was wifi. Using our cell hit spot worked however we had to use our data plan and for the work I needed to do for my job the connectivity was not consistent. I would give this location 4.7 stars ⭐️.
5.7 ⭐️ if u did not need wifi access. Owners were responsive and extremely helpful from beginning to end . We would definitely rent this location again.

The cottage is in a beautiful location and Thompson lake is fantastic. The cottage was clean, hardwoods/laminate throughout, everything worked and no musty smell at all. We were surprised that the water for the cabin comes directly from the lake(you can see the pipe) and we wouldn’t drink it so we bought bottled water. Didn’t remember if that was in the description of the property.

Quiet location, well thought out items to contribute to a comfortable stay. Great view of the lake from the house and fire pit. Enjoyed the dvd library on our rainy day. Great dock! We are skiers and this gave us enormous opportunities for a lot of it! Owner is friendly and responsive to questions. Thanks for the stay. We loved it.

Jeff’s cabin was perfect for us. It was a great location, beautiful dock area to read, watch the sunset, and it has the best view of the Milky Way with about 1 million stars! The cabin was extremely clean and Jeff was readily available to answer any questions! I would recommend it highly!The Kelly’sNew Hampshire

Short but relaxing stay after the summer season. Comfortable; well equipped kitchen; loved the screened-in porch; uses the canoe on the one none-windy day.
4.8
The property was just as advertised and the perfect weekend getaway from the business of normal life. We enjoyed kayaking, canoeing, fishing, and swimming on the lake, and had fires in the fire pit at night. The cabin was clean, cozy, and right on the lake. There were plenty of areas to hang out whether it be on the pontoon boat, in the hammock, or in the screened porch which made for perfect places to read, eat, or take a nap. 10/10 would recommend!
