About this farm stay rental

Rented Saturday to Saturday during the summer season the Gott Farm sleeps 8 (including the Camp that sits lakeside). The Studio (queen bed and a spinet piano) is available for additional $500 a week (Including cleaning). During the beautiful fall season, rentals are opened up to a minimum of two nights, not limited to the weekends.

Staying at the Gott Farm is taking a step out of hectic daily life and into a place that allows you to be as busy or quiet as you choose.

The farm has blueberry bushes, apple trees and plum trees, blackberries and raspberries. Wildlife is all around, all the year round. There are eagles, osprey, vultures and loons as well as all the smaller birds of the meadows and woods. There are deer and fox, porcupine and wild turkeys that roam across the farm.

There are fields and woods to explore and play in. And a tree swing.

The lake is famous for its bass tournaments so if you like to fish you are in luck! The lake has two public access boat launches, and is large enough for guests to enjoy sailing, canoeing, kayaking, water skiing, almost any kind of water sport (except no jet skis). Swimming, snorkeling, or just floating, the lake is the place to be on hot summer days!

The Village of Wayne and nearby Winthrop will provide everything you need for a complete getaway. But if you want to see the sights, the Wondrous Wayne website outlines many day trips, attractions and activities within easy driving distance. There are hikes up nearby "mountains" and down to a neighboring lake, perfect for children, with a picnic at the end and a different route to return. The Monmouth Theater, at the south end of the Lake, is a New York summer stock specialty.

With 10 acres of fields and woods, 450 ft of lakeshore and a dock that takes you out over the water, with stone fence lines that vector deep into the woods, the farm continues to be a serene retreat from a hectic world.

The farm itself has all kinds of room outdoors for running and hiding and playing. The lake is its own irresistable attraction. The Androscoggin Yacht Club has the best sandy beaches and facilities for families.

If you want to explore central Maine, it's only a little over an hour's drive to Reid State Park on the ocean. With a stop at the A-1 Diner in Gardiner, that's a day trip that always brings the greatest satisfaction. Going to Belfast and Camden take you to Penobscot Bay, a glorious place! Portland, one of the most talked about small cities on the east coast, is just an hour southeast.

If you like shopping, the giant and ever-expanding mega-mall in Augusta can't be beat. Plus, Freeport is only 30 miles away to the south.

You always return home to the quiet, the wind in the trees, and at night, the call of the great horned owls down in the woods. Perfect.

Gott Farm is an amazing property. We loved the beautiful house and camp overlooking the lake. The house is well stocked with every tool a cook could need. We had small children , parents and grandparents sleeping in the main house. We did wish there was one other large bed instead of 2 rooms with twin beds in the main house. The only downside to our trip was the water quality in the lake. Halfway through our week algae blooms were detected and we could not swim after that. Obviously this is out of the owners’ hands and they alerted us immediately. Communication with the owners and Margo was wonderful. If you are looking for a beautiful property to enjoy a family vacation this is it.

My family and I greatly enjoyed staying on the Gott Farm. We are from the area and return every year to visit family and friends. We have stayed at other camps in the past and appreciated the large amount of space and privacy at the Gott Farm. The level of thoughtfulness in how the owners organized and prepared for our visit was exceptional. We prefer to cook and entertain onsite when we visit Maine. Doing so was very easy due to the layout, large kitchen table, dishware, varied/plentiful cooking/serving supplies, dish washer, good quality grill, plenty of parking, numerous board/yard games, places to sit outside, beautiful views, mooring for the boat we rented, private dock, etc. Having access to a full size washer and dryer was so convenient. Communication with the team supporting us was superb. Our host, Margo, met us at the camp on check-in day to make sure we had everything we needed and to provide us with local points of interest. This review would not be complete without pointing out that the owners have gone to great lengths to simplify/organize the camp. For example, they put together a ring binder that contains the history of Gott Farm, a comprehensive list of relevant telephone numbers, local points of interest, instructions for the electronics, a check out list, etc. to sum it up, my family and I had a great time! We highly recommend the Gott Farm!

Property, owners, caretakers, townspeople all A-rated. Every room, every view, every bench, picnic table, deck were thoroughly appreciated by every age range (17-83). Highly recommend to anyone who wants a peaceful getaway with people you love. Lots of space on property. I could add more--all positive details--but will stop now.

The Gott Farm property is lovely. We enjoyed the lake tremendously. We were very surprised to discover that the camp by the lake and the garage apartment had no running water and that it was severely discouraged to use the toilet in the lakeside camp. This was not very clear in the description of the property. We also found the house to be not especially clean. Otherwise, we loved the area and convenience of being so near to the quaint downtown of Wayne, Maine. The Property manager was great and very available, with good communication.

Our three generation family stayed at the Gott property for a week. Everything about it was wonderful: the grassy lawn with the blueberry garden, the rope swing, the tall majestic ancient trees, the living spaces (we used all three), the sunsets, the well stocked kitchen, the outside sitting areas, and the lake! We fished (caught a 17" large mouth bass from the dock!), swam, explored by boat, and made several trips to Tubbys for ice cream. We all agreed that it was our best family vacation on a Maine lake ever.
