Vacation rentals with a kayak in Lovell

Every year we pick a place on the lake between Mother's and Father's day to celebrate over a weekend. We love to kayak and visit the local eateries while relaxing in nature. This year we were fortunate enough to find Katherine's home in Acton, ME for Memorial Day weekend. The house was spacious, comfortable, clean, and homey (and right on the lake)! Katherine and Nick were both very responsive and friendly with check-in check-out and we loved the places listed on their travel guide. The house is a short hour drive from Kennebunkport and Portland so we took some day trips during the rainy days and floated around the peaceful inlet of Mousam Lake when sunny. Leaving the inlet takes you to the rest of Mousam Lake where we saw motor boats, jet skis and one person wake boarding! Our old dog, Shaggy, had a blast and the long road leading to the property gave him the ability to run around without bothering any neighbors, who were all very friendly! Definitely worth a return visit!

My family really enjoyed our stay at Justin's Cozy Lakefront Cottage on Little Sebago. It was exactly as advertised - a cozy lakefront cottage. We especially enjoyed the paddle boards, kayaks and a canoe (and plenty of life jackets) , as well as the dock and floating pier. This access made it easy to enjoy the lake all day. And the view of the stars from the dock at night was incredible. We enjoyed listening to the loons at night, and had many fabulous meals on the screened in porch. The inside of the cabin is very cozy and there are games to play and books to read. Justin gave us many great recommendations for places to enjoy in the area. In particular, we liked the lobster rolls at Fishermen's Catch and everything from The Good Life. It was easy to make day trips to Portland and Freeport. Overall, this was a very relaxing trip and everyone from age 12 to 60 thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Justin has thought of everything for you to have a wonderful vacation.

This home was exactly what we were looking for! The host was amazing! Very prompt at returning messages, instructions were simple yet thorough, would highly recommend!!

We had a wonderful time. The house was perfect. It was a short walk to the lake. Very peaceful and quiet. Loved having 3 full bathrooms. It was a short drive to Conway for shopping and restaurants.

Great winter weekend stay in Maine, the house was very cozy and perfect for our group. The location is perfect for access to the ski mountains and the town as well. Overall highly recommend Roman’s place, I’m sure it is just as beautiful in the summer!

Lovely place to stay. Right on the water. Comfy beds. Easy check in. Close to restaurants.

We had an awesome stay at this cozy, comfortable cottage—perfect for two families after a full day on the slopes. Every afternoon, we came back to the quiet and warmth of the cabin, made great meals in the super-cute kitchen, built a fire in the wood stove, and played board games around the big table. The kids loved the bunk room (especially having their own book lights!), and everything was easy to find and use. The shower was great, the space was inviting and there were many thoughtful touches such as plenty of hooks for hanging ski gear! We really appreciated how the family updated the cabin while keeping its historic charm. Such a great spot—would absolutely stay again! Thanks for making us feel so welcomed and comfortable!

We loved this home! It was apparent that the house had been updated indoors with a fresh look, refreshed paint, new floors, new appliances . The outdoor canoes, paddle boats, paddle boards were enjoyed by all. If I could rate this location with a 10, I would. Kudos to this location and to Patricia as a host for an immensely enjoyable experience. This is a definite return location!

This place was really nice! Its on a beautiful lake with a lot to do! Jessica had plenty of kayaks, canoes, and life vests. The surrounding is beautiful and peaceful. The location is great with plenty of restaurants and shopping nearby. It's also very close to many great hiking areas Mt Washington.

We enjoyed a great weekend getaway at this place. Denise was a great host who were helpful and always quick to respond. The house is cozy and clean, perfect size for two adults. It is conveniently located while being private. We kayaked on Paugus Bay and hiked Mt Major. Would definitely come back again.

Super cute little camp house good for a nice quiet trip. Didn’t get to trying the kayaks but the lake is nice and easy to access.

A Perfect Waterfront Escape – 5 Stars My wife and I had an unforgettable stay at RK North Waterfront Cottage. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed by breathtaking views, fresh coastal air, and a sense of peaceful seclusion that made this trip truly special. The cottage itself was spotless, beautifully maintained, and tastefully decorated with cozy touches that made it feel like a true home away from home. We especially loved the spacious deck overlooking the water — perfect for morning coffee or evening wine while watching the sunset. The hosts were thoughtful and responsive, ensuring we had everything we needed without ever being intrusive. Whether it was relaxing by the fire pit, walking along the shore, or just enjoying the tranquility of the surroundings, every moment felt effortless and restorative. If you’re looking for a quiet getaway with charm, comfort, and stunning waterfront views, this is the place. We’re already planning our next visit. — Eric & Juliet DiNoto

The home was in a beautiful location and it was so peaceful to wake up and look out over the water. The beds were comfortable and there was lots of space for our group to hang out. The host was very accommodating and answered all our questions quickly. Highly recommend!

It rained 4 of the 6 days we were here so spent a lot of extra time in the house and loved our experience. The area is beautiful, but what we most appreciated was the extras she had in the house. When travelling it is hard to pack the extra niceties, but there we lots of extras like bug spray, Band-Aids, books, puzzles, access to premium streaming channels, umbrella.

I had a wonderful 4 night stay at the lake house and couldn't have asked for a better place to spend the little getaway. It is beautifully located on the lake and has this huge window in the living room from which you have an amazing view. The house has everything you need, even washing machine and dryer in the basement. I would 100% recommend this unique place! Christine has been super helpful throughout my stay.

Perfect fall cottage so close to Portland! The cottage is so peaceful and quiet. But so close to Portland but you wouldn’t even know it. The farm is lovely and we took a walk down to the river on the property, it was so peaceful and so much land! If you are looking for a get away from a city, but want to be able to explore Portland and Kennybunks, this was the perfect spot. I don’t know if I’ve slept that good all year. Would definitely come back again. And we love Trooper the dog!

We had the absolute best time at MJ’s place, highly recommend !! The house is spatious yet very cozy and quiet, with a nice back porch to sit and enjoy the surrounding woods! Home is also very close to town and to Poryland/coastline, and the cleanest lake to swim in that we’ve ever been to! MJ was very helpful and quick to respond. Stay here! We hope to return sometime soon!!

My friends and I had a great time relaxing at this beautiful place. Aqeel and Michelle were extremely responsive and helpful when necessary. We would stay again!

Nice place and location. Have all you need.

This location was absolutely stunning! Brad was incredibly accommodating and even ran over with a high chair after our check out because we had two families with young children. The yard was cute and we loved playing outdoor games in the communal grass area right by the house. The house was very cozy and the perfect space for our families. I wish we stayed longer!

Great long weekend! The place was adorable and accurately described! Close to Polar Caves, downtown Plymouth, cute restaurants in area. would definitely recommend

We had a great late October stay for our honeymoon. The cabin was definitely warm enough for the 30 degree temperatures. Hot tub was amazing, that was clean as well. The outdoor kitchen was very convenient, even when it rains the kitchen is still covered. We had an amazing stay, will be visiting again!

Came for the Fall colors; left in love with the place! Small but delightful. Cluttered in the most fantastical way. Nestled in paradise. Bonnie is so nice and friendly! Pay attention to the fact that the toilet is not attached to house. Short walk to privet and very clean!

very much worth the money to stay, Farmington is a beautiful town and the cabin is gorgeous with the view onto mill pond.
