Get back to the best things about life! Disconnect to reconnect. Relax in our quiet cove. Our quaint home is tucked away in a wooded corner on Lake Sebec. We invite you to explore the lake and land. Go for walks, swim, boat, hike, or hang back and read, play games, make a meal with friends, or work, if you must. Warm up by the indoor fireplace after a day of snowshoeing on the lake or roast marshmallows on the outdoor fire pit. Sit down by the lake and take in the life that surrounds you. Our unique year round lakefront home has a similar design to "The Cliffs", a Georgian mansion in Fairmont Park, Philadelphia. It boasts quality construction with crown moldings, wood burning fireplace, an open staircase, and wood floors. The family room is surrounded by windows, has cathedral ceilings and a sleeping loft, along with an atrium door that opens out to the beautifully wooded yard and waterfront. Tranquil Cove is situated on the edge of Sebec Lake, in a beautifully wooded wildlife haven, about a half-mile from the public boat launch. During the summer months, the dock is perfect for an early morning meditation or journal entry, mid-day sunbathing or swim, and anytime kayak. Gather around our outdoor firepit and relax on cool autumn or spring nights. Summertime begs for roasting marshmallows and fireside conversation. A nice summer breeze can take care of the mosquitoes, and there are plenty of dragonflies to help with them too, yet be sure to bring some repellent, you are in the woods! The lakeside covered porch is great for a cup of morning joe or glass of wine while grilling up dinner. Or leave open the doors to the vaulted family-room and enjoy the open-air from our comfortable couches. The dining area is a special place to enjoy a long dinner conversation or game of cards. Dim the lights and have a romantic anniversary dinner while the evening light filters through the surrounding windows. Winter is special here too. The fireplace is our favorite, especially first thing on a chilly morning, while a peaceful snow falls and all things begin to wake. Or to warm your toes after a snowshoe through the local trails. A full-moon, midnight walk on the frozen lake is also unique. The starry nights are exceptional, away from the bright city lights. Many local people enjoy ice-fishing and there are plenty of snowmobile trails nearby. It’s a good idea to bring in food. Our kitchen is fully equipped for most any meal. There are some condiments on-site: salt/pepper/spices/oil/coffee/tea. Once you settle down, you may not want to go out. Although, there are several fun food experiences within a 30-minute drive. Be sure to check out Three Rivers Tap Room & Kitchen, Chew 62, and Peace Love & Waffles in the nearby towns of Dover-Foxcroft and Milo. Both towns have groceries too, but if you need something in a pinch, the Sebec Country Store is only 8 miles from our home. If you love the outdoors, like we do, you may take advantage of Peaks Kenny State Park, on the other side of Sebec Lake. It’s one of our favorites for its hidden white sandy beach (just a short distance to the right of the main beach), its fairytale hiking trails, pavilion and playground too. And the views are amazing. There is kayak and canoe rentals available there, as well. It’s a great place for a late afternoon picnic. You can find blueberry picking and even a local paintball arena, if you’re really adventurous. Have a great stay in this beautiful hidden region of Maine. Step out into nature or retreat into a good book, take in the sounds of the loons, the bullfrogs…watch for soaring eagles or our playful otter friends. The deer frequent here too. There is much to enjoy about this place. Book a stay with us and see for yourself.
