Nice waterfront property
We all enjoyed the sandbar beach, playing catch and football, and floating around. The morning dippers would've liked quick access to deep water, but the description was accurate. The shallow water meant it was a very comfortable temperature! We enjoyed the Adirondack chairs and firepit. The house is big with floor to ceiling windows and slidin!g glass doors onto decks that overlooked the waterfront. The kitchen is well stocked. Our host was very helpful and available whenever we needed something. We enjoyed our week there!

We love this property and we’re so happy to return this summer. It’s a great spot for families! The water is so shallow it’s easy to let the kids go play in the lake while you sit and relax in the Adirondack chairs. House is comfortable and has everything you need. Great spot to unwind, unplug and relax.

A relaxing stay with space for ever
My family had a wonderful stay at Point House in June. The house had plenty of flexible sleeping accommodations for all of us. We spent our days floating and kayaking in Moose Pond, playing board games on the screened in porch, and reading books on the decks. The house is conveniently located a short drive to the drive-in movie theater and shops in Bridgton. We saw loons on a daily basis and the dragonflies were our frequent companions on the lake. It was truly a wonderful stay.

Great stay
Fantastic property and waterfront! We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. I can’t say enough about how great the beach is, especially for a soon to be 21 month old. May have been a few older than that napping on the great float. Neighbors on either side enhanced the experience with friendly dogs to play with ours as well as just being friendly and nice people. Moose Pond is a great location, Pencil Point may be the best.

Family camp at Pencil Point
Our group loved the Point House. Plenty of space for our 2 families with 4 adults and 4 kids. The shallow sandy bottom swimming area was perfect for the littles just learning to swim. The beach/picnic/fire circle area was our favorite place to be. We brought extra hammocks to set up a hammock cove down by the lake. The kitchen is stocked and the grill was new. The screen porch is delightful. We got into the puzzles on a rainy day. Good hiking nearby. Looking forward to staying here again!

A great place to swim
We enjoyed everything about our visit—and our host was lovely and responsive. The best part was the beach and swimming for all of us. The grandkids could walk out on sand in a beautiful, large shallow area. Adults could swim as far as we liked along the shore. So appreciate that the family makes this property available through VRBO.
I will add that groceries, boat rentals—pretty much everything was nice and close. Also, don’t miss the Maine Mineral and Gem Museum—wow. A terrific outing if you need a field trip day.

Stairs were an issue for my husband.
Beautiful setting and spacious. Several stairs to the house and then to the lake. Pictures of the waterfront were a little deceiving. Not much of a Sandy beach. Maybe because water level was up? I would recommend if stairs aren’t an issue.

The winter was hard on Pencil Point as I explained in an email prior to your arrival. We had multiple trees come down during storms which affected the water front. Thank you for visiting

Perfect Maine Staycation- Quality Home- Exceptional Owners
This home is perfect got families and large groups . Lot's of bedroom configurations, options. Lovely art that felt personal to the family, left for guests to love as much as they do. Loved the screened in porch, high ceilings..and coveted the sauna for a winter stay. The kitchen had all we needed and more. Even without air conditioning mid summer the home was very comfortable, shaded by pines, lots of ventilation. Plenty of of deck seating for groups to gather quietly or together, lovely views. Easy to get to, peaceful. Wonderful sand bar for youngsters and deeper water floating dock. Loved the fire pit by the water. Thank you Beth and Family.

Lake House
I stayed here with my partner, my daughter and her husband, two sons and grandson. We all enjoyed the house, the beach and the lake. We roasted hot dogs down by the waters edge fire pit.
We enjoyed the house and the site. The lake edge has a sandy beach.
The bed situation was not so good. Two queen sized beds were advertised but one is just a full. One single sagged badly. One full is lumpy.

Wonderful Family Vacation
We had a wonderful time! The beach is excellent with very clear water. The large sandbar was perfect for my 3 year old grandson. They also provide beach chairs and a table which was a nice bonus. My son brought his bass boat and enjoyed fishing. The screen porch was a wonderful place to eat meals and relax, without mosquitoes. The decks provided beautiful views for adults and probably older children. However, it’s not a safe place for young active children. Luckily there is the screen porch. Hiking is only a few minutes away and was fabulous. The only issue for us was the humidity in the house. We are very sensitive to humidity and the weather was extra h

Great vacation on Moose Pond!
This property was perfect for our family's needs. Grandkids really enjoyed the safe, shallow sandy swimming area and dock. Bedrooms worked out great for all of us. Plenty of hot water for showers and laundry. Master bathroom is accessible from the kitchen and master bedroom which was a definite plus. Screened in porch was perfect for listening to the loons every night. Bridgton was very convenient for grocery and other shopping. Everyone hiked jockey cap in Fryeberg- highly recommended. The covered stairway from the parking area to the house was unique and just cool! Be prepared for quite a workout between these stairs, the house, and the path down to the beach. We hope to return next year, that says it all. Thanks Beth!

Great Week!
We stayed here during the Fourth of July week! It was myself, my husband, my 2 children (7 and 5), my brother, his wife and their son (18 months) as well as our 2 dogs. The description was completely accurate - there are a lot of stairs but the description states this explicitly. There is also no beach (again completely accurate description!) however the area (shallow sand bar which is great for families with younger kids) where you swim is very shallow and the three kids had a ton of space where they could stand and play. My two older children loved the jumping dock - my husband and brother could walk all the way out and stand the whole time which was awesome! Beth was absolutely fabulous and incredibly responsive - she actually ended up staying next door (her nephew owns the house next door) for a few days; they had very friendly dogs as well! We had an amazing time!!!!

Fun family vacation
This house was the perfect size for our family of 6 adults & 5 kids. Not only the sleeping accommodation's, but also the spacious living room and dining table. The screened porch provided a nice separate area for reading & game playing. At the swimming area the sandbar provided a large shallow wading area for the younger kids. Beth was very responsive when we had questions and communication was very easy.
The only comments I would provide to older vacationers are regarding stairs & lighting. I am of retirement age and was ok with the many stairs, but individuals with mobility issues may not be as comfortable. That being said, we have rented many Maine lake homes and the elevation change between the parking area, house & waterfront is a common feature. Lighting in the common area for late night reading wasn't very bright and my old eyes benefited by having a reading light.
Overall, we had a very nice family vacation and all family members were happy staying here.

Perfect Location for Little Kids!
My family recently rented the Point House and it was a perfect location for little kids. We had six adults, and three kids under the age of 4. The house was very spacious and had plenty of room for us to eat dinners either on the screened in porch or at the big table in the living room. The house has an amazing deck overlooking the lake and also has a rather large yard with nice pine trees right by the water's edge. The private beach was perfect for our family of little ones since we did not have to lug beach chairs and toys back and forth-we simply left them down by the beach area. The beach itself was beautiful-it was all sandy and the water was crystal clear-the water was very shallow, up to an adult's knees for about 30 yards which allowed the kids to explore the water and have an amazing time! The place is also pet friendly-we own a yellow lab who spent the entire time swimming at the beach with us! Bridgton has an adorable town and is only 30 minutes away from Storyland and North Conway. We would definitely return to the Point House and the owner was a pleasure to work with!

Great spot for families and pets!
Wonderful stay at Pencil Point on quiet Moose Pond. Town is close (10 min drive) with all your needs - grocery, coffee shops, ice creams and restaurants - so very convenient.
Hiking is a 10 min walk down the road and Conway outlets are a short drive (30 min).
Property itself is comfortable - plenty of room for guests and kids. Sandy and shallow beach which is fantastic for families with young children. Didn’t see another spot with a sandy beachfront like this anywhere on Moose Pond.
Home has a well equipped kitchen and comfortable beds. Kitchen is a little dark but under cabinet mounted lighting helps put quite a bit.
Do be prepared to get your steps in - the house is on a hill and you walk down the property via a beautifully built terraced /covered deck and then you walk down from the house to the water as well. Not hard, but you definitely walk up and down a bit. We often packed a cooler and beach bag to bring with us to the water so we weren’t going up and back throughout the day.
We hope to visit again - it’s a special, serene and beautiful spot!

Cleanest lake ever
We were a group of all ages staying for a week. We enjoyed it. Lots of pros. The cleanliness of the lake, clear sandy bottom, and shallow water made for the best lake experience of my whole life. The house was large. The kitchen was well equipped. The basement with the pool table was nice and cool and a helped keep kids busy. Couple things to be aware of as a prospective guest. 1) there is no AC. The listing does not have this as an amenity and we should have paid closer attention as it was a challenge. There are fans, but you may want to pack some additional fans as some of our visitors ended up bringing more with them to help stay cool. The week we were staying was particularly hot, so it may not be an issue all the time, but the kitchen especially was tough. (The grill is a nice new Weber and a must for needing to cook outside-so that was a big plus.) 2) The beach in the photos is not exactly the beach available to guests of the home. There is a very small section available but access is a somewhat steep few steps down the banking. There are roots and rocks. Not easy for little kids. The flat sandy beach belongs to the neighbors. The beach is marked by a post w/ pink ribbon which we were shown when we got there, but we thought from the photos that it was bigger. These things probably would not have prevented us from renting, but just want to be clear for folks who may be interested in these things specifically. Neighbors and house very dog friendly. Nice stay. Thanks Beth!

Beautiful setting but...
The positives of this cottage are-the setting. It would be hard to find a more beautiful outdoor setting than the one this property offers. It's truly stunning from the campfires on the beach to the easy water access to the views. Other positive-the owner. Beth was helpful and present any time we contacted her. She wanted things to be perfect for us and was friendly and amenable. The decks-there are decks on every floor of this cottage AND a great screened in porch for eating. Loved those features. However, the negatives are that this cottage needs some BIG TIME UPDATING! As rental property owners ourselves, we know people can do damage. But there were just too many things that needed to be cleaned and updated from the furniture to the bathrooms and kitchen (poor drainage in downstairs bathroom, flickering lights in upstairs bathroom, light bulbs out all over the place, need new shower curtain liners, etc.) I could go on. Second negative-the downstairs rooms which are a bathroom and two bedrooms, were very musty smelling. Some in our group with allergies could not go down there. The basement mustiness made it impossible to use (so if you have an exceptionally large group and plan on using it for sleeping, you may want to reconsider). While we spent most of our time outside or on the decks, the inside, even for a 'cottage' needs some big time updating-many of the things being very simple to take care of. It has a feeling of benign neglect. Our family had a terrific time at this chalet. We even brought our boat and docked it to the pier. We would have loved to rent again but the consensus of our group was the inside just didn't work for us. Fresh paint, updated lighting, new plumbing accessories, etc.nps we rent a place every summer and like to go to the same place if it works out.

Thank you for your comments. We appreciate the feedback. Many of the items that you have mentioned are on a list that we have. We try very hard to tackle something large on the list every year. New couch for living room and paint are a priority for spring 2021. I am sorry that your visit to the Point House was not as you expected it to be. It is an older lake house. Visit our site in a year or so and take a look at the improvements. We hope you will consider another visit. All the Best

Fabulous
We had a wonderful vacation at Pencil Point last week. The property was described perfectly and we were not disappointed in any way. The sandy beach is perfect for a toddler and the shallow water to the floating dock is wonderful for kids of all ages. The canoe was fun and the Pond is a wonderful place to paddle around. The screened porch is an added bonus for outdoor space when it rained. I would give this 5 stars and would gladly go back.

The camp was clean and comfy, although better lighting for reading is recommended in the living room. Everything you need for cooking is in the kitchen, the beds were comfy, and the balconies have a great view of the pond. Beth is very friendly and attentive to any needs you may have. The walk down to the water may be a bit treacherous for 70+, as my parents had to be very careful with the exposed roots and stairs. It is, however, a camp, and that’s what was expected. We also had fun by the camp fire and were sad to leave! Also the pool and foose ball table in the basement were a huge hit.

Zu Gast bei Beth Dwyer
Our family has been coming to Moose Pond for 5 generations. Now that we all live in different parts of New England, Moose Pond seems to be the place that we come to be together as a family.
Darum fiel die Entscheidung auf diese Unterkunft
The family loved the location on the Pond for water sports and the closeness to Pleasant Mountain for skiing.
Das macht diese Unterkunft einzigartig
The Point House is a wonderful lakefront home with unique frontage on Moose Pond. The Home has spectacular water views and usage. Fall is a magnificent time of year to be in Maine when the lake changes color. No matter the season, the Point House is the perfect place for your next vacation!
