About this house rental
Comfortable, clean, warm, and welcoming lakeside living at its best! Just completely renovated and expanded waterfront lake house on Treasure Island just a few hundred yards from the mainland with free, and constant (At least until 7:45pm every day. Weekends later), ferry service (Just passengers and gear as there are no cars on the island). Or bring your own boat and use our private house dock and the mainland docks owned by us islanders (Please feel free to inquire about renting our pontoon boat during your stay). Square pond is an 877 acre, 10.8 mile perimeter (About 2.5 mile long) spring fed ULTRA-CLEAN lake. No weeds or vegetation to speak of. The lake body is generally 20-44' deep (Max. about 53'). Good fishing for largemouth and smallmouth bass, brown trout (Maine state record caught here!), perch, etc. We've just finished a complete top to bottom updating, reconfiguration, whole house renovation that includes a new 310 sq. ft. master suite addition with king sized bed (with 4'x4' skylight above), laundry, and gorgeous bathroom. Second bedroom with queen sized, and third with full sized bed and sofa bed. These other bedrooms just completely re-done with new windows, carpet, walls, and whitewashed tongue and groove ceilings. Vaulted (same whitewashed T&G) ceilings in the new master suite, living room, and kitchen. 2 skylights in living room and 1 in kitchen. Glassed, (or screened as the large glass panel windows slide open), indoor porch with bar height dining table for 6 overlooking the lake, outside deck with dining table for 6, outside bar stools at countertop overlooking the lake. Fire pit with Adirondack chairs next to the lake. Large iron griddle top grill on the deck. Brand new kitchen cabinets, stainless steel appliances, flooring, walls, and recycled glass Curava countertops. Warm inviting string lights outside over the deck and front of the house. Long aluminum wood-grained look Floe dock system with platform deck and Adirondack chairs and our swimming float about 90' from shore. Less than a 5 minute ferry ride from mainland. 4 kayaks, canoe, and life jackets for use. Bring your motorboat if you wish (Just be incredibly diligent in cleaning the exterior and motor carefully of any vegetation before bringing it please! Maine state law and VERY important for our lake). Walking or running path around the perimeter of the island, as well as middle island, that also allows access to two public beaches. Or just stay on the property and swim off of our dock, small beach or out to our float and lay in the sun and watch the island's nesting bald eagles fly over or listen to the loons and watch them fish.

Under a 2 hour ride from Boston. We offer great check in and out times so that you can enjoy more of your vacation (1pm check in and 12pm checkout times)!

Gorgeous house on a wonderful lake. John was a wonderful host.

My husband and I had our 3 grandkids ages 5-10 for a week and loved every second! There were tears only one night and that was our last night because no one wanted to leave!
True sign of an epic vacation is when everyone is sad to leave.

John and Kirsten, the owners of this home are clearly thoughtful, thorough and available. You can feel the love in their home and the care they take to make visitors feel welcome, comfortable and informed about the area. The house is lovely. It is updated and cozy, well equipped, and well laid out… perfect for our family of four. The bedrooms are generous in size and the beds and bedding are quite comfortable. The lake is beautiful, clear and clean. We swam, kayaked and fished daily, making use of the 4 kayaks and canoe at the home for all of our lake activities.
The house itself is set on an island that is strictly residential. We found the ferry/taxi to and from the island to be convenient and easy, giving the vacation a private feel without being far from anything we needed!
