We spent a week in Rangeley and enjoyed our stay in your cottage. The accommodations were comfortable and very clean. Beautiful views of the lake and mountains. Water was a little chilly but we went in and enjoyed floating on our raft. My husband and I have decided this will be our 1st choice for future vacations and will 100% rent this property again.

Longview Cottage is a perfect retreat to enjoy this crystal clear lake with amazing mountain views. The outdoor waterfront lawn, fire pit, dock and overall appearance were very enticing when we pulled down the drive. Once we entered the cottage, we knew our vacation would be amazing. Clean, comfortable and relaxing atmosphere tastefully decorated with pictures of local wildlife, knotty pine walls and ceilings, and cozy furnishings made us feel right at home. And truly, the host and hostess with the most-ess. Must do: get up for a sunrise. WOW. The sun rising behind the mountains across the lake is stunning. If you can catch more than one, even better. Every one was different, just like the views changing each day with the movement of the clouds, and sun hitting the water.

My wife and I stayed here for our honeymoon. This cottage was simply perfect! Everything in the description was not only exactly as stated but even better! It was very clean, had everything we could possibly need, and was nestled perfectly close to the water with an awesome dock for our boat, the most perfect firepit, patio and great flat lawn for our corn hole games. The newly added rock steps leading into the water for swimming was a great addition also!! The windows in the gable end looking over the lake was a stunning site every morning and night. This place was everything we were hoping it would be and more!

The home, location, and homeowners were amazing! Could not have asked for a better experience! We were lucky enough to spend the 4th of July here. Fireworks that night, full moon, Saturn, and Venus in full display as well. The home was very clean upon arrival. The kitchen is well stocked from a blender to a crockpot, to a rolling pin we used for making pizza. The ever changing view was captivating every day. We rented sup's, kayaks, and a pontoon boat. And found plenty of time to just float on the lake. Loons and eagles everyday for our entertainment. We didn't turn the TV on until Thusday night! We really unplugged. The neighbors were all very friendly. You can't go wrong staying at Longview! We made some incredible family memories. Thank you!!

Superb in every way

We've done alot of vacationing over many years. Mostly renting through Lodge's ,motels and hotels. About 5 years ago we started renting house's, camps and condo's through various web sites. By far this camp on a lake is the best. You can not get any closer to the lake. Can't even build this close any more. The mountain view's across the lake are amazing. located in a great spot for visiting Rangeley, close to everything. Well stocked wood pile for fires and a wonderful dock to fish off of. The cabin has everything you need just show up and relax. The owners Cindy & Jay make sure you stay is perfect from start to finish. I would tell everyone to rent this cabin.

Longview cottage is lovely in every way. When you enter ,the view will blow you away. Its proximity to the shore gives you a full view of the lake and the mountains beyond. The cottage is clean, comfortable and stocked with all the conviences you'll ever need. The hosts, Cindy and Jay were wonderful to work with. The highlight of our stay was sitting on the dock in the evening watching the loons fishing. This is a 5 star cottage!!

Upon our arrival at Longview we walked into the perfectly set up clean cabin. The cabin has everything you need for your stay. From all the added kitchen items ( 2 coffee makers,a kerig and fresh drip to a blender among all sorts utensils and pitchers)to extra blankets, movies and books. The scenery is spectacular from the picturesque windows overlooking the lake. The property is in a perfect location as it is so peaceful and not a far drive to many stores, overlook sceneries and hiking or walking trails. The yard is very well maintained and has a nice fire pit as well as the wood for a nice fire. The dock is a nice place it sit and relax as it has 2 built in benches. We enjoyed out week long stay so much we cannot wait to come back. We relaxed and hiked. As much as we tried to savior every moment the week flew by and not once did we turn the TV on. Longview is a beautiful property and I feel so lucky to have stayed there.

My husband of 40 + years and i have stayed at Longview cottage for the second year in a row now(ten days last year and two weeks this year) and it grows more lovely each time. Wonder what next year will bring. This year brought blueberry muffins from Jay's own oven. That on top of the cabin which is unmatched by anything we have rented in 40 years in terms of beauty, amenities, cleanliness, and care given by the owners Cindy and Jay. The view from the cabin which sits right on the water is outstanding beyond belief until you actually sit in the great room and just stare for hours on end. Besides visiting Canada(don't forget passports as we did this year), there is fishing right off the dock where I caught an 18 1/2" lake trout, hiking to small falls, angel falls, and cascade gorge and falls which each vie for best falls in New England, biking to Oquossoc and on Bemis road, and just plain contemplating one's navel while sitting on Jay and Cindy's dock which is clean and shiny. The best places to eat(make reservations) is Bald Mountain Camps and Restaurant at Haines Landing and Loon Lodge in Rangeley(also make reservations) but don't forget cooking in the well stocked cabin kitchen or out on the grill as you watch rainbows form across the lake. The rental price is fair and reasonable in this area and you couldn't ask for better hosts in Cindy and Jay. I suggested last year that a full length mirror be installed behind bedroom door for us short people and there it was this year. Cindy is quickly responsive to requests and emails and contacts you before visit as often as needed to insure a perfect vacation. What more can I say(well, plenty) but reserve a spot and see for yourself. Thank you Jay and Cindy for giving of yourselves for our tired, old bones. By the way, the interior of the cabin is even lovelier than the picture on this site.

Upon arriving at Longview Cottage, we just stood there taking in the breathtaking view from the yard and thinking how lucky are we to have found this little slice of Heaven. We stayed for a week, had the best of times, beautiful weather and the cottage had absolutely everything we needed. The cottage was also very spacious, very clean and we enjoyed many fires at the fire pit! Jay and Cindy were the best from before our arrival to after we sadly had to leave. We will definitely be returning to Longview. Rangeley is a beautiful part of Maine. You just have to go on the free Moose Tour, we saw 3 deer, a fox, a moose and two humans haha. Bald Mountain Camps is a must, make dinner reservations early, we got lucky as someone cancelled the night we wanted to eat there. We also went to Loon Lodge, The Tall Tavern and many other excursions but most of our time was spent at Longview, it was just too hard to leave to go anywhere else! Jay and Cindy have all the brochures and information readily available to really experience this beautiful area. Thank you both for our wonderful 2015 vacation memories!Henry and Gale

This was our first time at Rangeley Lake and we had a great time. The cottage was perfect...well equipped, clean, and comfortable. The location on the lake made for the best views of the lake and mountains. The dock and floating swim dock were so much fun for my son to fish from, jump off, and swim to. The owners were very helpful in helping us arrange a boat rental and making themselves available for questions. I highly recommend the property and my family and I will likely return next summer. Thanks Cindy and Jay!

This was our seventh summer renting on Rangeley Lake and this cottage is one of the best we've stayed in. The on-line property description was spot on. Very nice sunny grass area with fire pit, beautiful dock with seating, swim dock and great location with a full view of the lake and Saddleback Mountain. The cottage is new, beautifully maintained and very comfortable for a family of four with every amenity you need, especially in the kitchen, nothing was missing. Cindy and Jay are very nice and want to make sure you have a great vacation. Highly recommend.

I just spent my third week at Longview cottage and it could not have been better. This rental simply has the best of everything with all of the amenities one could possibly need and a view of Saddleback mountain that is unmatched. Swimming off of the dock was great and when I rented a boat I was able to tie off right there and have lunch. Top that off with the fact that Jay and Cindy are most gracious hosts and you can't go wrong with this rental. Highly recommend!

When I came across Longview Cottage I thought it was to good to be true. It was everything and more than expected. The Owners could not be more welcoming and accommodating. I spent a week at the cottage and it felt like home offering everything that we should need. The view from the cottage is very beautiful and serene. It is so relaxing sitting by the fire at night listening to the loons on the lake. There are many great places to eat in the area as well as many things to do. Cindy and Jay leave lots of information on the goings on and other things to do in the area. We enjoyed everything about our stay at Longview and cannot wait to return soon.

Staying at Longview cottage is one of the best reasons for visiting Lake Rangely in Maine. Aside from the most beautiful views of lakes and mountains (moose too), this cottage is by far the most lovely, well appointed, and excellently maintained vacation rental we have ever visited. It sits right on the water and the views of lake and mountain in the morning and evening are unsurpassed. The inside of the cottage is bright, cheery, and well stocked in both kitchen and bathroom. Cindy and Jay mirror the cottage. They are unsurpassed and very conscious of making your stay private and comfortable. Husband caught 18" salmon from dock in front of cottage. Would return every week if possible. Not sure writing this is wise as cottage may be rented when we wish to return.

Great place to stay. Lake is beautiful; cottage was everything as outlined; owners great to work with. Enjoyed firepit under starry nights; fished from dock; referrals from owners were fantastic (guided fishing and restaurants). Just a very relaxing time at the lake!! Definitely are planning to return for another visit.

What a great place to stay the views are awesome the water was cool. Everything was perfect inside the cottage. It was great to just sit outside listen to the water as the waves hit the rocky shore, the tempermant of the lake was always changing. It was great to wake up and view Saddleback mountain across the lake, Nice restaurants. Also to watch a thunderstorm as it raged over Rangeley.was neat. CINDY and JAY were great. They really cared that our stay was perfect.

I stayed with my two boys for a week. The cabin's size was perfect-a maximum of four I'd say. It is brand new, looks to me like a huge rustic sauna, the color and finish to the wood is warming by itself. Tastefully decorated, kitchen brand new, lots of big windows face the lake, which is about four feet away. No dishwasher though. The kitchen has a nice set of knives (a rarity), the wifi works great, all paper products and soaps are there. The house is located a mile south of Oquossoc and 10-15 minutes from Rangeley. The local canoe rental outfit delivers, there is a dock that could accomodate two small craft, with a draft of 2-4 feet. Lake bottom is rocky but not slippery or harmful to feet and the swimming is an immense pleasure. We reached Rangeley Lake State Park by canoe in about 30 minutes, saw loons, ducks, moose. Bald Mountain is right behind the house and the trail head is about 10 minutes away. The house's location is perfect for adventurous kids. The owners are exceptionally hospitable. They responded to my emails within hour(s), everything was organized well, and they couldn't have made our vacation any easier. Sweet people. I wish I had booked a week or two more.

The owners have everything covered at their Longview cabin. Communication is quick and always helpful. -*wonderful* view -@100 ft. lakefront with dock space for two small boats (2-4 foot draft) and swimming -float raft @100 feet offshore -fire pit, big pile of firewood -canoe/kayak rental outfit delivers -trash deposit on premises-no shlepping to transfer station -recycling nearby -nearest sizable grocery store about fifteen minutes away -numerous outdoor rec opportunities nearby -kitchen has all the equipment, except for a dish washer -nice knives (a rarity) -water tastes great -washer and dryer are new-work great -all paper products, soaps stocked -wifi very good -house is new -beds comfy -a refined, rustic ambiance-looks like a big sauna, nice artwork, very tasteful -board games, several DVD's stocked -the cabin was the perfect size and had the right amenities for me and my two tween kids

Wonderful delightful cottage on the shore of Rangeley Lake just beautiful in every way clean well-appointed and everything you need. I would highly recommend a stay here especially in foliage season just amazing Cindy and Jay thought of everything you will love it

My husband and I had the greatest time at Longview cottage. The place was beautiful, spotless and well stocked with everything you would need. There is not a better view on the lake. More than that, our hosts were wonderful. We had the pleasure of meeting them and they could not have been more hospitable. A wonderful place to enjoy Rangeley!!!! We will absolutely return.
