This comfortable and quintessential lakefront Maine cottage is ideally located on Norton Pond with unparalleled water access. This vacation destination is a highly desirable spot for relaxation and recreation. Norton Pond is only 10 feet away and accessible from the dock or gradual entry for swimming or kayak/SUP launching. Tie up canoes, kayaks or power boats to the dock so you are able to explore the pond or venture into Megunticook Lake. The cottage is just an 8-minute drive into downtown Camden and the Penobscot Bay waterfront. Spend the day on the lake, exploring town, or hiking the trails of Camden Hills State Park that are just down the road. The cottage is walking distance to the Lincolnville General Store which offers grocery basics as well as gourmet entrees, pizza, and local organic produce. Lincolnville Beach is a short 10-minute drive from the cottage. Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park are less than 2 hours from the house for a perfect day trip up scenic Route 1.

Welcomed by beautiful landscaping and a small yard perfect for lawn games, prepare to relax while listening to the sounds of loons and watching picturesque sunsets over the pond. The newly renovated kitchen (for 2021 season) will have all modern amenities, which then leads into the dining area and living area facing the flat screen TV. Directly off the living room is the sun porch where hours of enjoyment reading a book, sipping a cup of coffee, or playing board games await while observing the passing boat traffic and soaking up the summer sun. A newly renovated full bathroom (for the 2021 season) with a walk-in shower is on the first floor. Continuing upstairs to the two well-appointed bedrooms, queen and 2 twins/king trundle, with views of the water.

For additional room, the next-door cottage, Kenney's Port of Call, could also be rented for visiting family, friends, or guests to sleep up to 12 people.

We loved our stay so much. The cottage was wonderful for our family of 4. Phenomenal location, great amenities with lots of Maine charm still. The dock and access to the lake were the highlight!

Wow. Working with OTW is so much better than AirBnB!! Y'all do such a great job of setting up the house and being responsive to things during the week.

Norton Pond Cottage was amazing. The house had everything we needed and lots of extras- bug spray, flashlights, games, etc. I love a gas range in the kitchen, and all the right cooking pots/pans/utensils. The beds were comfortable. The location of the house on the edge of the lake is incredible, and so hard to find in rentals in this area (we've been renting in Camden for seven years!).

We had a wonderful getaway at the Norton Pond Cottage. House was perfectly appointed and very comfortable. Well situation on the pond, literally, swimming, kayaking, fishing (with license) and bird watching was steps away. What a perfect week!

Our favorite feature of our place was the easy access to the pond and how nicely furnished our cabin was. It was nice to open cabinets and find just what we needed.
