There is a glitch in Vrbo's software showing a number of properties as having hot tubs when, in reality, they do not. If you're looking for a hot tub, our recommendation is that you confirm the presence of a hot tub with the property host if Vrbo is listing a hot tub as an amenity. \*\* ☆☆ BUNK BED SAFETY WARNING ☆☆ There are certain risks associated with using a bunk bed and bunk bed ladder, and guests agree that use is at your own risk. Property owner assumes no responsibility for personal loss, injury, or illness of any kind which may result from use of the bunk bed and ladder. The owners are not liable for any accidents occurring. Parents with children should be especially cautioned regarding ladder use and agree to accept all responsibility for minors. While not an exhaustive list of precautions, guests agree to follow these industry standards: 1) Use of top bunk is limited to occupants 6 years or older; 2) Use of top bunk is limited to 1 occupant and a maximum 175 lb weight; 3) No jumping or other horseplay on or around the bed; 4) Always use ladder for entering and leaving the upper bunk. ☆☆ ADDITIONAL AMENITY SAFETY WARNING ☆☆ \- Guest’s or Guest's invitees, visitors, or guests use of any pool, pool floats, hot tubs, spas, saunas, bikes, sleds, kayaks, paddleboards, canoes, watercraft, fire pit, or any other equipment or amenity that may be within the Accommodations or available within the Building shall be at Guest’s sole risk and Guest hereby indemnifies the property owner and agrees to hold the property owner harmless from all claims, actions, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising from any personal injury to the Guest or Guest’s invitees, visitors or guests, and Guest shall be solely responsible for any damage caused by Guest or Guest’s invitees, visitors or guests. \*\* EXTREMELY IMPORTANT - READ BELOW \*\* \- DO NOT GO ONTO THE PRIVATE PROPERTIES OWNED BY OUR NEIGHBORS - THESE ARE THEIR HOMES - As a host, I feel entirely ridiculous even having to include this section within our listing. You are welcome to use our property, enjoy walking throughout the private roads of Lancelot Shores, and even use the community beaches and boat ramp. We’re lucky to be in a peaceful, close-knit neighborhood, and maintaining strong relationships with our neighbors is a big part of what makes our home and this community special. For over 99.9% of our guests - this is obvious and not an issue. Unfortunately, for the 0.1% of guests who haven't quite understood this, it has caused a problem with our immediate neighbors, and they let us know EVERY TIME someone violates this rule. That’s where you come in. We ask—firmly and respectfully—that guests do not set foot on any neighboring property for any reason. This includes: \*\* The yard and beach across the street (no sitting, walking, or passing through) \*\* Launching kayaks, paddleboards, or other watercraft from the private beach across the street. That is their yard - please don't even ask them if it's ok. \*\* Swimming or entering the water from any neighboring beach \*\* Using any garbage or recycling bins that are not on this property \*\* Taking photos or wandering onto lawns, driveways, or shared paths Some neighboring properties have security cameras and will contact us immediately if guests trespass, even briefly. Their cameras are motion-sensored. We know this may feel strict, but it’s part of being a great guest in our shared community. If you have any questions about boundaries or access points, just ask—we’re happy to help. Our property lines should be fairly obvious, as are the ones for our neighbors as you navigate within our community. Renting our home constitutes that you have read and understood this policy. Unfortunately, if you violate this policy, you may be asked to leave without a refund for the remainder of your stay. Thanks for your understanding and for helping us keep the peace. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby - Beach towels ### Ski - Cross-country skiing nearby ### Internet - Available in the cabin: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation -

It is absolutely lovely, and was perfect for the 3 of us. There are so many details that were well thought out, and made us feel at home. We had family over one night for dinner and the kitchen was more than well stocked. We did use the fire pit in the backyard one night, it was probably my favorite night. The backyard is absolutely gorgeous. The area is stunning and beyond peaceful. The host was extremely responsive, and the record player was a huge hit!

Jun 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy My teenage kids and I had a great stay at Nimue Cottage. The hosts respond well to communication without being overly communicative. Jason left incredibly helpful instructions and also a helpful list of things to do in the area and responded promptly to the few inquiries I had. The cottage is in a fantastic location and is peaceful. The cottage kitchen is amply equipped and the area farms and proximity to grocery are convenient and efficient. The walk to the lake beach is short and it's easy to travel to areas of interest in Maine, NH, or MA. The check out instruction and procedures are minimal. Overall, I couldn't have asked for a better stay. I will definitely consider the cottage (and other listings from this host) the next time we visit! ##### Victoria P.

It is located comfortably in a nice, quiet, perfectly safe neighborhood, perfect for day trips in every direction. Although there is no "beach" directly near the house (it's a small boat launch area), there are beaches within nearby driving distances. There are also plenty of nearby towns that offer fun activities. So if you don't mind driving a little or just relaxing at the house itself, then this place is perfect.

The house is clean, bright and full of amenities (they even have a record player and lots of records). Check in and check out was simple. The whole setup is open and inviting. Even though there were neighbors on both sides, it was secluded enough for us to enjoy some rest and relaxation. We were able to see the lake from the front window, which was really nice. The owner was very kind and accommodating, and his responses to any questions I had were fast. Overall, this is a great family or even couples retreat that I would highly recommend to anyone looking for some rest and relaxation. ##### Laura F.

This cute little cottage house was perfect for us. Our children and grandchildren even visited a couple of times and enjoyed a day playing at the lake. This house is equipped for small children as well as your fur babies. They had toys for the toddlers and cozy dog bed for our dog. We were in want of nothing and had a very enjoyable time. This cottage is very clean well furnished and has every item you could ever need. Jason was quick to reply to texts. Every thing was well explained in the book concerning check-in and out plus local sites to explore. Thank You Jason I plan on spending more time in the future at Numi's cottage. ##### Diane L.

The home is exactly as the photos show. The owners clearly put lots of thought into making their guests feel at home. There were plug-in fans in both bedrooms, super comfortable beds, tv options ready to go and a fully stocked kitchen with plenty of convenient items like baggies, a kettle and even a Brita in the fridge. We really appreciated the full size washer and dryer and available detergent too. While we didn’t use the record player, I appreciated the trip down memory lane with their extensive album collection. What a fun thing to have in a rental! Josh was very helpful and extremely quick to respond to my messages. He was in touch before our very smooth check in with our unique code for the doors. We loved this property and highly recommend it! ##### Leslie P. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Richard C. Jul 20, 2025 ##### Richard C.

The home was spotless and so comfortable which made you feel at home. The location is conveniently located close enough to major attractions and yet a nice relaxing area. The lake offers so many activities for the whole family. ##### Brandon B.

Jason was always prompt with communication. We were able to host Thanksgiving with our daughter & son-in-law. The area is nice & enjoyable to walk on the streets with a view of the lake. ##### Mark N.
