Loon Lodge was purchased in the spring of 2016 and renovated to be family friendly, open, and comfortable! We hope you enjoy sharing our Maine getaway! You can see some of the renovation and lake photos on Instagram @LoonLodgeMaine

House: There are 3 bedrooms on the upper floor (master with queen bed, guest room with full bed, and guest bedroom with two twin beds), 3 bathrooms, and a bonus room downstairs with a pullout couch for extra sleeping. Bedrooms also have plenty of room for a pack and play (available), air mattress, etc. Living & dining room have huge windows that overlook the lake as well as a new rustic dining table and huge sectional couch. There is a full kitchen with an eat-in breakfast area and desk. The house has a small deck, 3-season porch, fire pit, and a charcoal grill.. Also, if you're coming with little ones, there is plenty of baby/toddler gear available if needed (bed rails, high chair, toddler dining chair, pack and play, books, games, kids plates/cups/bowls/etc).

Lakefront and Lake Description: Stairs lead from the house down the hill to a private beach area with 4 sections of dock, canoe, paddle boat and kayak available for use (included). Norcross Pond is one mile long with camps and homes along one side only – keeping the lake quiet. Water is clear and the lake has a sandy bottom for great swimming. Speed boats, pontoon boats, and jet skis are allowed, but since the lake is small you don't gets boats out all day. A boat ramp is available if you want to bring your own boat (note, the boat ramp is dirt and steep). The lake is full of bass, perch, and stocked with trout, so bring your fishing rods. There are also nearby places for blueberry picking, hiking, movies, ice cream, restaurants, etc. Fall is wonderful for walking around the lake, hiking at nearby mountains, kayaking, canoeing, and viewing foliage. Winter is perfect for ice fishing (stocked with trout), snowmobiling (trails are next to the lake to get you throughout the Maine trail system), ice skating, and skiing at an array of ski areas within an hour.

Local Things to Do: blueberry/strawberry/apple picking, movie theater, ice cream, lobsters, restaurants, markets, festivals, antique shops, biking, breakfast at the Post Office Café (a must!), and more.

Nearby Excursions: Farmington, Belgrade Lakes, Mount Blue, multiple ski mountains, Sandy River Railroad, DEW Animal Farm, Norlands Living History Center, Golf (Turner Highlands, Sandy River, Wilson Lake, and others), U Maine Farmington events, and more. Lots of excursions (hiking, skiing, ocean, and more) within 1-2 hours.
