Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Strafford County

Every year we pick a place on the lake between Mother's and Father's day to celebrate over a weekend. We love to kayak and visit the local eateries while relaxing in nature. This year we were fortunate enough to find Katherine's home in Acton, ME for Memorial Day weekend. The house was spacious, comfortable, clean, and homey (and right on the lake)! Katherine and Nick were both very responsive and friendly with check-in check-out and we loved the places listed on their travel guide. The house is a short hour drive from Kennebunkport and Portland so we took some day trips during the rainy days and floated around the peaceful inlet of Mousam Lake when sunny. Leaving the inlet takes you to the rest of Mousam Lake where we saw motor boats, jet skis and one person wake boarding! Our old dog, Shaggy, had a blast and the long road leading to the property gave him the ability to run around without bothering any neighbors, who were all very friendly! Definitely worth a return visit!

Great and relaxing location, close to local amenities. Perfect for small groups, Hillary was awesome to rent from.

My girlfriends and I have chosen to stay here three years in a row for our annual girls weekend, which should tell you all you need to know. Clean, friendly and responsive hosts, great location for getting away to the quiet but easy drive to restaurants. Highly recommend!

Gary and Nick were wonderful hosts, extremely accommodating and very communicative and flexible. The surroundings alone were so picturesque , each morning and dawn was like a painting - I’ll be back for sure !

A great cozy place to stay for my grandson's graduation. This house was perfect, with a nice big deck outside. The hosts were amazing to work with and were very helpful. Location was great, looks exactly like the pictures. Highly recommend staying here. A short walk down to a cool little beach at the end of the street.

This was an excellent stay! The house was beautifully situated on a peaceful lake, clean, and the location was perfect for relaxing weekend away. Plenty of space for seven adults. Wether it was roasting marshmallows by the fire or lounging in the hot tub, this house had something for everyone. The host was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout my entire stay. I would highly recommend this listing to anyone!

My friends and family stayed at Chris’s Airbnb last year and knew we had to come back to do it again this year!! Had an amazing time playing darts, lounging in the hot tub, and grilling! Hope to make it year 3 next year! Highly, highly recommend Chris’s place👍

The house is beautiful and the views are just breathtaking. From inside the house, you get a beautiful view of the lake and then the porch is amazing. You can kayak, use the paddle board or use the canoe. You can also sit by the lake and enjoy the campfire. The surroundings are very beautiful and peaceful. The host is very responsive, solved all our doubts and was flexible with us during check-in and check-out, which we appreciated very much. At check-in, we were greeted by a great bottle of wine and chocolates, which was a great touch. The house also has a ping pong table, books to read and board games. The kitchen was well stocked with the basics. We had an amazing stay, we highly recommend this property :)

Charming older home in a beautiful, friendly and quiet neighborhood with gorgeous views. Plenty of space, the loft area was a big hit for the kids. Both the upper deck and grassy area in front of the dock provided perfect outdoor dining. Spacious master bedroom and bathrooms. Open concept living area with plenty of seating. The kayaks and canoe were an added bonus. Great swimming and fishing right from the dock. Lots of amenities provided a stress free stay. Neighbors are very friendly. Host was very responsive. I would definitely recommend this place!

My husband & I had a wonderful stay! Niki answered all of my questions & gave some great hiking recommendations. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything you could possibly need & the place was clean.

Great walk to town location. Loved waking up and having coffee with a view of the lake. Place is clean and great for a small family. Rich was nice and quick to answer any questions while booking. Central location to visit Wolfeboro and Weirs Beach.

Travis was a Great Host, we enjoyed the nice bottle of Red Wine he left waiting for us with two Wine Glasses on the Table and the Coffee was Great. The location is only about 10 minutes from UNH Campus which was Great while visiting our Son!

The Bunny Bungalow was an ideal place for our family gathering to celebrate my daughter's graduation weekend. The space is comfortable, well-equipped, and we wouldn't have changed a thing! And, what a wonderful neighborhood! Thanks for a great experience.

The house was exactly what we needed for the weekend! It was clean and comfy, the coffee setup was GREAT!

This place was perfect for my short stay in Rochester. It was out in the country but a 5 minute drive from fast food so that was a giant plus. It was so quiet and peaceful. Really beautiful property. I would stay here again if im in the area.

Thoughtful hosts. Excellent amenities. Beautiful surroundings. Robin and Rich went above and beyond to ensure our family had a fun weekend. In addition to the many included amenities (frisbee golf, kayaks, swing set, outdoor fire place... the list goes on!) they ensured our toddler was the happiest camper by offering fun toys that kept him laughing and exploring all weekend. Their town of Wolfeboro had yummy breakfast spots and beautiful lake views and access to the rail trail. Nearby Castle on the Clouds made for a fun excursion and hike. We'd love to return!

We really enjoyed our stay at this peaceful spot by the river. The serene setting made it easy to unplug and relax—exactly what we were looking for. Everything was just as described, and the calm surroundings made for a perfect escape. I’ll definitely recommend this place to friends and others!

Five star service and accommodation in a country cabin! Elena and Ken are amazing hosts and should be the ones to teach other owners how to own a Airbnb. Amazingly quiet and secluded authentic cabin. This is as described but the cabin is so cozy and Elena made us feel at home upon meeting us to check in. She cares about your comfort. Ken knows the local area and is so happy to give a tour of the 250 acre farm. Nothing like watching sunrise out the large bedroom windows looking over the field. We sat outside one afternoon and just watched two bald eagles soar while hunting for hours. Get your food in advance. Nice country breakfast places 20 minutes away. Concord downtown is quaint and beautiful. If you are looking to get away in an immaculately maintained cabin, this is it. No tv, no WiFi (ok cell signal). This is where u go to get away and decompress with the best host ever. Will surely be back. Ken and Elena answered emails instantly. Inside has a European feel in a true cabin.

My wife and I stayed with our dog and it was wonderful, the lake was beautiful and full of fish! Great swimming area that our dog loved, and a dock to fish off. The cabin was perfect and was as shown in the pictures we enjoyed a Nice fire in the provided fire pit, before sleeping comfortably! 10/10 would stay again for sure

My two young children, our golden retriever and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Deborah's cabin. The cabin was so cozy and clean-- we especially loved the wood burning stove. The kitchen was well stocked and we were able to cook all our meals there. The setting was so peaceful and beautiful and my kids spent HOURS sledding. We were close enough to the white mountains to take a day trip to North Conway. Deborah was very responsive and offered us helpful recommendations whenever we asked. We would definitely stay again and will recommend it to our family and friends.

Such a lovely getaway. We loved the paddle boat and kayak. Justin was super communicative and helpful as well.

Maryjane was a fantastic host who takes great care of her beautiful cabin. She had a family medical emergency during our stay, but we both worked together to make our NYE trip a very memorable one. She is very responsive and friendly. Her home provides all of the charm of a cabin while also having modern appliances and features. We loved every second of our time here and would definitely stay here again!

Great, quaint and private location to relax quietly!
