The Loon Landing cottage is one of those rare properties that sits right on the water and offers all of the peace, tranquility and beauty that people expect when coming to Maine. From the living room you can walk out the door onto the deck and right to the waters edge in five steps. This private location with excellent water frontage is a great property for that perfect vacation getaway. Quantabacook Lake has great bass fishing as well as beautiful water to swim. Paddle boat rentals from local providers are popular at this property!
Some Guests with a lack of good agility have mentioned that it can be a challenge to climb the ladder to the sleeping loft - so keep that in consideration when planning sleeping assignments.
This timber framed cottage has vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, a large stone fireplace, a nicely appointed kitchen, and nicely appointed bedrooms and baths.
A detached guest house, which sits back from the main house, consists of a comfortable second living room, laundry, a queen bedroom and a full bath.
Downtown Searsmont is a short drive from the cottage and has a general store for basic grocery provisioning, pizza/deli ordering, and alcohol/ice cream purchase. Belfast is about a 15 minute drive from the house and has great shopping, dining, and a beautiful waterfront for concerts in the park and weekly farmers market. Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor are only a 90 minute drive from the cottage.
BEACH CLASSIFICATION: We have categorized this property as having or being near a sandy beach. More specifically for this property - it has a 10 foot wide sandy beach entry area. While small, this is rare in Maine for a lake cottage to have a sandy entry area. This is great for kids and that is why we have classified it as being on a sandy beach.
BOATS INCLUDED? None, however if you are looking to rent kayaks, Maine Sport or Ducktrap Kayaks offer those and can deliver them to the Property.
FISHING TRIPS: This is a great property to go fishing from. Maine Guide Mike Kinney can take Guests fishing and will pick them right up at the dock in his boat. Contact Mike through his website at http://mikekinneymaineguide.com/ to reserve a guided fishing trip on Quantabacook Lake.

As always, Loon Landing was a delight.
The views are spectacular and the setting is so peaceful.
The cabins are very well-equipped with state-of-the-art appliances.
Everything was swell.
Even nicer, the friendly neighbor brought fresh flowers from his garden as a gift,

Very comfortable home with everything needed to cook a gourmet meal if you should so desire. We were a family of 6 & couldn't have been happier with the set up. Lovely deck, dock & views from the glass sided home. Great little beach to pull kayaks up onto. The loft with 2 single beds worked well for the 2 teenage girls. We all had a ball swimming, boating, fishing, reading, cooking & playing games at night. The teenagers learned how to water ski there.

Everyone was very pleasant to deal with. My initial dealings indicated that I could rent outboards and then I was told they no longer rented on this lake. I had a terrible time finding Maine Boat Rental. I must have tried 8-10 places before I was successful on my own. I have left a brochure for you in the smaller cabin. Maine Boat Rental, China.

Loon Landing is right on the water, the perfect place for a morning coffee on the deck and an kayak trip to visit with the loons and watch the sun rise or fall. The house is furnished and decorated with great care, and having a separate cabin for visitors or just doing the laundry is wonderful. We couldn't have been more pleased with our choice and hope to return again and again. The tranquility was truly amazing.

Loon Landing is the best! Provides all of the comforts of home plus the solitude of really being out in the woods. The loons woo you to sleep at night.

The loon landing property was fantastic with a secluded feeling without being in the wilderness. The buildings were new and well maintained with huge windows to view the gorgeous scenery. The property is well situated near the coast and had a perfect location for watching nice summer sunsets. The lake was pristine and perfect for kayaking and loon/eagle watching.

A very positive experience-no complaints. On an extremely windy, rough water afternoon we returned from a day in Camden to find our little fishing boat that we rented from On the Water in Maine flooding with water. Ben arrived about 5 minutes after our call to bail out the boat. Thank you!

Whoever designed your little house-they truly did an excellent job-love the stone floors especially! The view The view The view!!! Best lakeview ever because of all of the glass facing the lake. We also noted all of the attention to quality detail in every single room-everywhere you looked it was a perfect lakefront vacation home.
