| Our stay at Primrose Cottage was nothing short of delightful. The outstanding view of Lake Megunticook was a huge bonus to the comfortable and well appointed furnishings of your home. We already look forward to our return visit next summer! |

We had the pleasure of spending our annual family vacation at beautiful Primrose Cottage. Everything written on this page is true, and the photos of the lake and cottage bring back great memories. There are beautiful sunsets at night, great hiking trails on the two mountains in the area, other picturesque towns nearby, and a local market makes it easy to enjoy staying at the cottage without having to go to restaurants. Swimming and kayaking in the lake are wonderful. Various lake wildlife (Canadian geese, loons, coyotes, and bald eagles) can be seen during the day. You may get lucky and swim next to loons. At night, we roasted marshmallows with the kids by the chiminia on the dock and made s'mores under the starts. One night we were treated to a show of falling stars. We picked blueberries on Maiden's Cliff and ate them in pancakes and made other sweet treats. We ate lobsters and lobster rolls and one afternoon we chartered a sailing trip around Penobscot Bay with views of the area including an old lighthouse. It was all spectacular! |

The Hassel Clan had an oh so sweet week at the Primrose Cottage. We came with ages of 83 to 27!! And did we have a great time! We and our South Carolina relitives spent the night away learning the SHAG ! Hope we were not to loud for the neighbors!! We cooked many a night on the grill and had 2 LOBSTER BAKES at home. The young ones (and me!) hiked the Maiden Cliff. What a awesome view from there. It beats the view from Batty Cliff!! Can you guess that we had an awesome week !! Canden and Lake Megunticook is the best! Really liked being outside of the crazy traffic in town. Cannot say enought about this house. It is as if just built but keeping the old lakehouse look. Water views are the best! Kayaks were a plus! The house was perfect for our family of 8! David and I would recommend this place in a heartbeat! Will come back again soon. |

What can I say except to summarize - WOW!
We really weren't prepared for how wonderful this vacation home is. The current photo's (July 14, 2009) don't do the home enough justice.
In particular the water views are stunning from the lake-side (rear) of the home. The home-owner had told me they don't eat out too much because the views from the deck(s) are so great, and she is absolutely correct - the views are unparalled. The rear (lake-side) aspect of the home is absolutely beautiful, and currently isn't featured in pictures.
We spent a lot of time locally, doing walks / treks / climbs - in addition to kayaking on the lake of course.
The home is close to Camden but it isn't walking distance - for us that might have been an issue but in retrospect it totally isn't a problem. In fact it is probably better to be slightly outside of Camden town center.
We had a small family re-union here - my parents (who are very picky about quality furnishings, cleanliness and decorative style) were highly impressed by the standard of the renovation of the home. The furnishings are of excellent quality, very tastefully put together - by no stretch of the imagination is this a typical vacation home.
We home you enjoy the home as much as we did. The Pratley family - Detroit, Mi, Castle Rising, UK, Courtmacsherry, Ireland.

Text: What a wonderful experience it was to enter Primrose Cottage and find it even more lovely and inviting than the photos on the website. Everything was perfect, the home was warm and welcoming, the setting was breathtaking, even though spring had not fully arrived! The one really foggy morning had its own eerie beauty. We were fortunate enough to have one incredible sunset; I think I took 25 shots as the brilliant colors gradually faded away.
Tracey has thougtfully provided everything you could possibly need for an enjoyable experience. Warm throws for the oversized window seat made it my favorite place to curl up and read.
My friend and her daughter both raved about my "find" in locating this lakefront jewel. They were very glad I convinced them that this would be superior to a B & B stay, offering space, comfort and a quiet, restful setting.
I will be back...no doubt about it. |
