Lake House with Swim Area, Dock, Deck, Canoe, & Paddle Boat - 1BR+, Sleeps 4-6 | Cottage in Chesterville
1 Bedroom Cottage in North Jay, Chesterville
Loon's Nest was purchased in the spring of 2017 and renovated to be family friendly, open, and comfortable! It's a great small cottage for a family or couple to enjoy the lake and all it has to offer!
We purchased and renovated our first house on Norcross Pond in 2016 (a 3BR+ down the lake - VRBO#886930) and were so excited when this smaller camp came up for sale on the same lake in 2017! We spent the spring of 2017 renovating have had a house full of guests since then! We hope you enjoy sharing our Maine getaway. You can see some of the renovation and lake photos on Instagram @LoonsNestMaine

Bedroom also has room for a pack and play (available upon request). Both levels have huge windows that overlook the lake and the new deck. There is a full kitchen equipped for cooking and a new oven, stove, and fridge in 2024. The house has a re-built deck, morning coffee area off the front of the house, and a "happy hour" deck down towards the beach.

Lakefront and Lake Description: Stairs lead from the house to a private beach area with dock, canoe, and paddle boat available for use (included). Norcross Pond is one mile long with camps and homes along one side only – keeping the lake quiet. Water is clear and the lake has a sandy bottom for great swimming. Speed boats, pontoon boats, and jet skis are allowed, but since the lake is small you don't gets boats out all day. A boat ramp is available if you want to bring your own boat to park at the dock (note, the boat ramp is dirt and steep).
