Cozy but not so comfy
The property and the managers were great. It was very relaxing but the furniture and especially the beds could be updated. They were very old and not very comfortable. Not sure I would book again. The kids loved the canoes and the view was great.

Great Place!
We had a great stay at the Chalet! It's like roughing it, but with many upgrades that made it much easier. Unfortunately the weather made us unable to take advantage of all the amenities, but when we make it back this way, we'll be sure to return! Thanks so much!

Beautiful location
What a treat! The chalet was cozy, just like going back to grandma's house. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. We invited family over and enjoyed a clambake outside at the firepit. A magical evening that we'll remember forever.

Classic Maine Summer Experience
We loved staying here with a group of children and adults, it is the classic Maine "lake camp" experience. Great fishing on the property and a wonderful lake beach with a dock accessible via a short (and really fun for kids) walk through the woods. The property is as advertised and the bedrooms were all very comfy; there was plenty of space to grill and eat outside. You could be very happy to spend the day just relaxing on the lake, but restaurants and activities in Windham and Portland are also not far away.

Great stay!
We had a great stay at the lake house! The property managers were so thoughtful and we found nothing lacking. The beach was fantastic, and the canoes were a lot of fun. We even had plenty of fans to keep us cool at night

Delightful, cozy cottage experience
Dee's Chalet was the perfect spot for our two weeks in Maine. The location was ideal and made a great home base for our visit: equidistant to our family, the coast, and Portland. Nancy and Don were excellent hosts, starting with a tray of fresh brownies! The beach was most comfortably accessed by canoe, which made for a fun little jaunt on the pond. The beach itself was awesome: sandy, warm, shallow and clean. I would love to stay again!! The only things that were disappointing were completely out of Nancy and Don's control: the wifi was unreliable (due to the provider) and the bugs were atrociously fierce. However, with bug spray and cell phone data, we were happy as clams. Thank you!

Rustic cabin with a short walk to a very nice beach
Our family of 6 loved Panther Pond. We were on the lake for the entire day. The cabin provides a great place to crash at the end of a busy day. Rustic, clean and had everything we needed. Don was great, nice guy. Would stay there again.

A cozy cabin in the woods.
Dee’s Chalet is exactly as pictured - a cozy cottage away from it all. It’s clean and well stocked with kitchenware, towels, books, games, and movies. Nancy and Don even made us brownies! We enjoyed the beach and canoeing and hearing the loons on the pond. We went to Portland one day and took in a movie at Smitty’s one afternoon. We also went to the adventure park nearby. It was a perfect vacation. Thank you for having us!
