Modern Lake House close to Portland

Coined "The Eagles Nest", this beautiful lake house is a quiet and cozy place to enjoy while staying in Maine. Located down a quiet wooded road, you'll find the tall pines and views of Highland Lake a peaceful setting for your stay.

Built in 2023 this home is in brand new condition with all modern amenities you would need and want in a lake house. The beautiful kitchen consists of shaker cabinetry and quartz countertops, fully equipped with all new appliances and kitchenware. Enjoy your morning coffee with the Keurig machine that makes hot or iced coffee! For those that prefer drip coffee, there is a drip coffee maker there as well. Kitchen is fully stocked with all basic kitchenwares.

2 bedrooms located on the first floor, each with a queen bed. The additional sleeping space is located upstairs in the sleeping loft where you will find two twin beds as well as a cozy play area for little ones.** Enjoy lake views from the living room while you take in some downtime and relax. The smart TV with streaming channels, an Amazon Alexa for your music of choice, and a collection of board games make for great family fun. There is a washer and dryer in the home for your convenience.

Outdoor enthusiasts of all kinds will love this property! The spacious deck is a great location to unwind and soak in the evening sunset. In the warmer months there are 3 cushioned chaise loungers, a 6 person outdoor dining table, a Webber gas grill set up on the deck, as well as water gear to use at your leisure including a paddle board, a canoe, and kayaks. (There are some lifejackets at the property, however we suggest bringing your own to ensure having the proper size.) Walk down to the water and enjoy swimming, fishing, and listening to the sounds of loons. Walking trails are located on the road for those enjoying walks in the woods. In the colder months, snowshoeing, snowmobiling, and ice fishing are popular sports to be enjoyed on Highland Lake.

When staying here, you'll be conveniently located just 10 miles to downtown Portland, a short drive to downtown Falmouth, and 25 minutes to Freeport and LLBean. Enjoy a quiet stay in the Maine outdoors while still being close to the action of the Portland area - truly the best of both worlds!

**Please note: The sleeping loft has sloped ceilings that are shorter than average, around 5’8” tall. This is a sleeping loft and although some children can stand upright, taller persons may need to crouch. The property is located down a gravel road. It is a very dog friendly neighborhood so you may come across dogs who live on the road walking off leash.
During your stay at this vacation home, you'll be close to MAGAN Trailhead. Enjoy your stay with amenities like free WiFi and a kitchen in the vacation home.
  • Air-conditioned home with kitchen, washing machine, and patio
  • Free WiFi
  • 7 minutes by car from MAGAN Trailhead and 13 minutes from Mercy Primary Care

Exactly as pictured
This house was obviously brand new, well maintained, tastefully decorated and thoughtfully stocked. Immaculately clean and host was super proactive and communicative. It's probably worth noting though that it's a cabin not for larger than average sized people and I've never seen so many rules on a Vrbo (am a regular user, like 5x a year). It's all in the fine print so fully disclosed by property manager, just make sure you read it 😉

Great Location
My wife and I had a great week staying here. We loved the quiet location and the proximity to so many nice trails for walking our dog. Being close to Portland was nice and convenient as well. The house is very nice and clean, with everything that we needed for our week. The deck overlooking the lake is a great place to hang out. We will definitely consider staying again.

Great rental for a home base during a Maine trip
Our family of four and dog stayed here for a long weekend. It was a perfect rental for our needs. My only note is that the road up is very bumpy, take it slow- but its worth the drive.
