About this property

Beautiful ALL season home in the Maine woods. Direct access to ATV trails and Maines Interconnected Trail System for snowmobiles (ITS). Great location on Piper Pond for swimming, fishing and kayaking! Private home with plenty of room for the whole family. 7 beds in 4 bedrooms, with 2 separate spaces. Easy access to hiking and Moosehead Lake region. House comes with 5 kayaks, one canoe, paddles and life jackets.

Unique A-frame home with all the wood charm you could ask for. Outfitted with games and puzzles to entertain the kids when they are taking a break from swimming and kayaking. Flat, level lot with easy entry into the lake for the whole family. 30 foot dock with stairs into the water installed from June through September. Live edge picnic table outside to enjoy the firepit in the evening. Relax in Adirondack chairs overlooking the lake while you listen to the loons. Two office spaces provided including monitors, keyboards and mice. BYOL (bring your own laptop.)

Free parking on site. Access to the house on a well maintained dirt road. Self check in through code provided on day of check in. You should expect quite a bit of privacy as there are only a handful of properties past this house on the same road. Parking for 4-6 cars available.

Aframe on Piper Pond

Aframe is very nice and spacious. Pond was very clear and warm for swimming and kayaking. Our puppy (2 1/2) loved swimming too.

Exactly what we hoped for

My family had a wonderful stay. If you are putting together a list of potential spots like I did, just stop and book this one. The cabin has everything you could possibly need. The kids loved swimming and kayaking on the pond. Close enough to head up to Greenville for the day, but away from the crowds.

Maine Getaway

Growing up in Maine and being around a lake community, I have high standards. Piper Pond most definitely measured up. The house was immaculate and had AIR CONDITIONING. I appreciated having all the cabinets labeled so I didn't have to spend hours searching for a can opener. The bathrooms were beautiful, with excellent water pressure. I didn't watch tv, but it was placed perfectly, and the furniture was very comfortable. I enjoyed sitting on the porch in the morning, I only wish the chairs sat up higher so I could see over the railing. LOL. The lake was clean and easily accessible with the dock and stairs into the water. I would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful

The property has - everything. The pond is outstanding, the water is clean and refreshing. The house is very well appointed, and is plenty big enough for a family trip. Katherine is a wonderful host. She was responsive if we had any questions, and made the entire process effortless. All of the watercraft were in great shape, with plenty of life jackets and oars for everyone - including a kid sized kayak. The house easily sleeps 10 people if needed, our smaller group was able to spend family time together - or find a quiet place for a rest - without any difficulty. The kitchen is ultra-modern. (Wait until you see the range - it’s fabulous). If you’re a star gazer, you will not find better skies than Abbot, Maine. The Milky way was magnificent. Top all of that off with a healthy serving of Maine hospitality, and you won’t find a better vacation spot for a mid-sized group. We look forward to an opportunity to stay again in the future.
