Water temperature mid June is 78 degrees. Last 7 photos are from a guest in October. Please contact me through the VRBO inquiry feature prior to booking with any questions so we make sure this cottage is THE ONE :) for your family vacation. Imagine watching the reflection on a lake of an orange sun rise over a wooded hill; You breathe in the aroma of the towering pines that is quintessential Maine and hear loons calling to each other. Welcome to Isla’s Will; A cottage at the end of a private child safe road, tucked in the woods just 20 feet from the water’s edge. Away from it all, but super close to area amenities: Fun Park, Movie Theatre, and most importantly, ice cream and gourmet deli salads and sandwiches. Spend your days diving off your private swim float, then eat lunch at the picnic table or deck. Fish off the dock, explore the nearby winery or catch a movie if the weather is inclement. Top off the day with a campfire toasting s’mores on the fire pit or dine at a hip restaurant in Portland with every cuisine imaginable just 40 minutes away. Waterfront Amenities: There is 100 feet of direct lake front and an additional 100 feet on a ROW shared by everyone on the road. There are 3 steps with a railing to a sandy bottom waterfront.

Windham's Fun Park with go carts, sky swing and mini golf, movie theater and mall are 15 minutes in one direction while Naples with a game arcade, old fashioned steamboat ride around Long Lake, water sports, and plane rides is 15 minutes in the other direction. Day trips under 2 hours: Portland is a great walking city from which you can tour the outer Maine islands via the mail boat or explore Peaks Island via golf cart. Freeport and North Conway for outlet shopping are an hour away. Family outings might include visits to the Maine Wildlife Park in Gray or the Sabbathday Shaker Village in New Gloucester which is the last active Shaker village in the US. Hike any variety of mountains including Shawnee Peak in Bridgton 45 minutes away; an artsy town where there is a wonderful park along a stream, an old time movie theatre, antique shops and art galleries to browse. Closer to the cottage, 5 minutes away is Hacker’s Hill with mesmerizing views of Sebago Lake in one direction and Thomas Pond in the other. About the lake: Thomas Pond covers 533 acres and has a maximum depth of 64 feet. It is about 1 mile long and a mile wide with nooks and crannies to explore. Very quiet and private with just one neighbor on one side with trees in between. The surface temperature of the water in the summer is 78 degrees. There are 14 different kinds of fish living in the pond including: Brook and Brown trout, white and yellow perch as well as large mouth bass. In 1989, the largest smallmouth bass ever caught in Maine came from Thomas Pond. In the morning you can see the fish from your bedroom window. Yard Amenities: A private lot is extremely rare in the Lakes Region. Children will enjoy playing in our pesticide/herbicide-free yard. Lots of potted flowers and perennial beds with garden ornaments give the feel of a bed and breakfast. An herb garden is yours for culinary experimentation. Book lovers take notice. We have a large assortment of books for children and adults with topics to please all tastes. Google 'Isla's Will' for a video on U tube. I pulled the following paragraphs on Thomas Pond trivia from Jon Whitney a local realtor's blog: "The mood on Thomas Pond is relaxed. In fact, this is where Nathaniel Hawthorne, the famous 19th century author of The Scarlet Letter and many other works, used to enjoy relaxing as a kid. There is even a granite rock known as Inspiration Chair located along the shoreline that it is said he enjoyed sitting on. Hawthorne spent some off his boyhood only a stones throw from Thomas Pond at his Uncle Richard Manning's home. According to the Hawthorne in Salem Web site, "Nathaniel and his friends could walk along broad Dingley Brook as it flowed down from its source, Thomas Pond, a half mile away. On its shores was the brickyard run by Jacob Watkins, which made the bricks necessary for the chimneys of the houses. From Thomas Pond, Nathaniel could see Rattlesnake Mountain, several miles away, a view which he loved." Today, family names in the area still include Dingley and Watkins. And in the summertime you can visit Hawthorne's home on nearby Raymond Cape Road in South Casco. Tall white pines surround the 7.5 miles of shoreline. The lake covers 497 acres and has a maximum depth of 64 feet. The outlet, Dingley Brook, drains directly into Sebago Lake. Seasonal and year-round homes dot the shoreline."

Our host, Mary, was so easy to work and her welcome packet included so many local suggestions for hikes, restaurants, and adventures. What a wonderful vacation! We hope to get back soon. ##### Kristi T.

The lake itself is pristine and clear - a lot of wildlife too, from ducks to loons to turtles to a majestic bald eagle. The water was warm and the kids spent many hours in the water each day. As far as cottage, it was comfortable and spotless, we were thankful for air conditioner since it was actually quite hot during the week that we stayed. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen well-stocked and Mary is one of the most attentive and pleasant hosts I ever had to deal with. Thank you for the wonderful week. ##### Lev V.

Mary was the perfect host, very responsive and helpful in all her suggestions. The house was extremely clean and well stocked on the end of a peninsula, so extremely quiet and private. They supplied 3 kayaks and a canoe which we utilized at least once a day. The pond is large enough with undeveloped areas and coves to make the kayaking and birding always interesting. We saw Loons, osprey, an eagle and migrating birds. There were plenty of places to hike for all ages. We especially enjoyed the views from Hawk Mountain and the Beaver Loop Trail in Sebago State Park. During this period with the Coronavirus, we felt perfectly safe, isolated but never bored. I would highly recommend this wonderful home and hope to return. ##### Barbara K. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nancy C. Aug 7, 2018 #### Great family vacation spot Our family of 4 just spent a glorious week at Isla's Will on Thomas Pond. The house was very clean, well appointed and located in a very private spot at the end of the road. My boys ages 5 and 9 spent hours swimming and jumping off the float. We loved taking them for canoe rides and long walks around the neighborhood. We also loved the proximity to Naples and Windham where we enjoyed mini golf, the arcade and Lobster from Bob's. My husband and I enjoyed the peaceful location, the outdoor deck and the fishing. At night we enjoyed the fire pit. The lake is very quiet with little boat traffic. My boys loved the room with two twin beds and a secret nook that they could crawl into a play. The air conditioning/heat pump system kept us very cool on a few of the hottest nights. Other nights, the master bedroom has big windows facing the lake which we opened up and enjoyed the lake breezes. We would love to return and Mary was very easy to communicate with and helpful with questions. ##### Nancy C. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Luda S.

The house has such charm, from the front deck overlooking the lake, to the landscaping on the outside. The kitchen had everything we needed… We had a lovely time. Can’t go wrong with this place! Highly recommend! Luda & Paul S. ##### Luda S. Stayed 6 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gregory M.

This is a close-to-Portland and very convenient location situated at the end of a road, so despite proximity to suburban Maine, it is mostly a private site. The house was nicer even than the pictures depict and very much as described by both the lovely owners and the previous guests. It is more house than cabin or camp and even has air conditioning (smart move given that summers are getting warmer). The WiFi connection was excellent and we were all three able to work and Zoom without a hitch. For an end-of-September stay, it was wonderfully quiet and peaceful with very few of the many houses on all sides of the pond occupied, so we mostly had the pond to ourselves. Given the number of houses I would think this pond quite busy in peak summer—ideal for a family vacation with children or teens—with this house’s spot adjacent to a wooded natural area being quite prime. Our visit coincided with the moon’s peak and the moon rises were spectacular, directly across the pond. Our last night we had an owl calling. The loons were there daily (and nightly) as were a number of ducks (wood ducks and mallards), herons, woodpeckers, chickadees and plenty of lingering warblers and vireos. ##### K H.
