George’s Pond is best known for its clean, clear water and picturesque sunsets. The 360 acre pond hosts many types of fish: Trout, Bass, Pickerel & Perch. Along the pond you will find many incredible swimming spots, as well as a large swimming rock (boulder) in the middle of the pond with a diving board. With a population density of 39 people per square mile, Franklin, Maine is the perfect relaxing, unhurried environment to vacation in while being so close to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. Carved out by glaciers, Franklin, Maine hosts some of the most beautiful landscapes in Maine; miles of blueberry barons and mountain ranges with lush foliage along the Atlantic coast providing an ideal vacation spot to escape the hustle and bustle. The House: George’s Pond House is a 4 season 2br, 2ba modern home with private beach frontage just 25 feet from your door. Custom built in 2007, no details were spared in construction or comfort, and privacy of the 1650 sq foot home. The house comes with a dock, 4 single kayaks, 2 paddle boards, lifejackets, paddles, large propane grill, fire pit, and ample seating for entertaining. You will find hard wood & tile flooring throughout, accented with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, propane fire place, and high end fixtures.

Just down a set of steps you will find an aluminum dock with kayaks on a convenient rack. Out on the end of the dock is seating for 3 people and a large area to lay down or have a picnic. The sand / pebble beach area to the right of the dock provides an excellent place to wade, splash, and swim! Quite often a family of ducks will swim through looking for food along the rocky shoreline. Murch Island offers shelter from South winds, and provides excellent fishing grounds. In closing: George’s Pond House is about as comfortable and charming as it gets. You are only 15 minutes from Ellsworth (grocery stores), 30 minutes from Mount Desert Island, 5 minutes from the nearest (small) grocery store / gas station, but surrounded in all natures beauty along the best side of the pond which receives full sun with incredible sunset views.

Easy 45 minute drive to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. We loved being able to come back and just relax without all the hustle and bustle! Ellsworth is close by and has a great selection for places to eat. There is also a Walmart if you want to make your own food. Communication with the host was excellent and we felt like we had everything we needed at the house. ##### Anne K.

Séjour de 7 nuits en août 2025 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Michael A. 31 août 2025 Points forts : Propreté This place was incredible. We stayed the last week in August. I was skeptical with the location being not on Mt Desert Island, but it ended up being perfect and centrally located to everything we did. Schoodic Point, Acadia, towns of Bucksport/Belfast/Camden/Rockport and some other local hikes. The owner has a great book with local recommendations!The house was the perfect place to wind down after day of hiking and do some fishing and kayaking and paddleboarding as the wind died down on the lake in the late afternoon and water was warm. We finished a few evenings with a fire in the huge Solo stove and did some stargazing where you could see the Milky Way with no moon the week we stayed. This place was the perfect place to stay and relax. The lake is clear and peaceful. When we come back to Maine we will definitely stay here again. 10/10. ##### Michael A.

Séjour de 7 nuits en juin 2025 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Stacie C., Mount Laurel, New Jersey 21 juin 2025 Points forts : Propreté #### We didn’t want to leave! Family vacation to Maine, 4 adults. The house was very comfortable with a gorgeous waterfront view. We drove from NJ and had everything we needed, but the house was well stocked with the basics to get anyone started, such as k-cups, trash bags, paper towels/toilet paper, hand and bath soap. Linens and towels provided. I had packed beach towels, but I do believe there were beach towels available as well. Beds were all in new condition and very comfortable. Smart tv on each floor with many apps available to login. Wifi in the house was strong. Multiple kayaks on sight and we enjoyed a morning tour of the lake before heading to the park/Bar Harbor.Primary reason for the visit was to visit Acadia National Park. We wanted a waterfront location away from the main tourist locations, but close enough for an easy drive. Georges Pond House was perfect. 30-35 minutes to Bar Harbor, 40-45 minutes to Acadia. Even closer was 15 minutes to Ellsworth which also had a lot of restaurant options. Easy scenic drive. The waterfront view and peaceful surroundings were absolutely worth the drive to Acadia.The owner, Paul, was very welcoming and responsive to my messages prior to checking in, as well as a quick message to let him know we arrived. No other communication was necessary, we had zero issues. Highly recommend this property. ![Peaceful morning view to wake up to](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/82145b5d-6d28-4a50-a046-44eab31172ac-1750525499265.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Stacie C. Séjour de 7 nuits en juin 2025 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Karey K. 9 juin 2025 Points forts : Propreté #### Rest & Relaxation We enjoyed our stay at the Lakefront Home on George’s Pond. We especially enjoyed kayaking around the lake with the provided kayaks. The Eagle and Loons let us get very close in the kayaks. My husband spent many successful hours fishing in the lake both off the dock and from the kayak. The beds were very comfortable, place very clean, and great double shower heads in the upstairs bathroom. Thank you for sharing your home with us. We found a new favorite restaurant in Bass Harbor called Seafood Ketch. Pirate Mini golf was a favorite family event followed by Udderly Heaven homemade ice cream. ##### Karey K.

Séjour de 6 nuits en octobre 2024 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Wendy H. 28 oct. 2024 Points forts : Propreté #### The perfect place for our Acadia visit We had an amazing stay here at the end of October. The views in the morning and at night were breathtaking. It was so easy to communicate with Paul and the check-in was seamless. We arrived later and all the lights were left on for us - which made it easy to find in a secluded place. The beds were so comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. We enjoyed our six day stay here - we did Acadia by day and then just relaxed at night. If we come back to Acadia, this is our top choice! ##### Wendy H. Séjour de 6 nuits en octobre 2024 ### 8/10 – Bien #### Donna R. 13 oct. 2024 Points forts : Propreté #### Beautiful view Beautiful view, nice house, comfortable beds. The owner Paul was very responsive. If you want to go into Bar Harbor or Arcadia, the drive is a long way and it takes a good hour to get there from this property. The house doesn’t afford any privacy because of the openness of the lofts area. Also, there are no good restaurants nearby or grocery stores. Cell phone service at this property is very poor for those who like to stay connected. And in the fall, you cannot see the sunset from the dock it’s hidden behind the trees, which is one of the reasons why I rented this place. So if you just want to stay on the lake in the summer, I would recommend this place. ##### Donna R. Séjour de 6 nuits en octobre 2024 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Karen P. 9 oct. 2024 Points forts : Propreté #### Perfect VRBO This property is in a beautiful location. It is right on the water with a dock. There are kayaks and fishing poles available. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything that you might need.. The rental was spotless. Paul responded to any questions promptly. The property was very easy to find and is in a safe, quiet location. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and can't wait to return. ##### Karen P.

It was very comfortable with lovely views. The kitchen was well equipped and Paul was a great host. A perfect place to kick back or explore the surrounding areas. ##### Debbie B.

USA 20 sept. 2024 Points forts : Propreté #### Even better than expected Close to Bar Harbor and Arcadia but NOT to close. Situated on the world’s quietest pond/lake. Has everything you need or would want. ##### Ed W. Séjour de 5 nuits en septembre 2024 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Robert J. 18 sept. 2024 Points forts : Propreté #### Peaceful Lake House We enjoyed our stay and wished we’d stayed longer. The setting is outstanding and sunsets over the pond were beautiful every night. The house was well equipped and the host was very responsive and accommodating. The 40 minute drive to Acadia and Bar Harbor was a little longer than we’d prefer, but the location on the lake more than made up for it. ##### Robert J. Séjour de 6 nuits en septembre 2024 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Andrea G. 8 sept. 2024 Points forts : Propreté #### Heaven on earth! Everything was wonderful! Paul was an amazing host. Would definitely come back. George’s Pond is breath taking. Can’t tell u how lovely this place is. If I had to change one thing, I’d have a bathroom in the second bathroom. ##### Andrea G. Séjour de 6 nuits en août 2024 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Sam S. 4 sept. 2024 Points forts : Propreté #### Beautiful lake house Our family of four (two adults and two 7-year-olds) had a blast at this wonderful property. Paul was very communicative and responsive, the lake was beautiful, the sunsets were stunning, and the location (within an hour of Acadia) was excellent. Highly recommend! ##### Sam S. Séjour de 6 nuits en août 2024 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### beth a. 1 sept. 2024 Points forts : Propreté #### Love Love Love We couldn't have loved this property more. From the start of booking, the property owner remained in contact with any concerns. Upon arrival, our expectations were met with above and beyond scenery. The house itself is the perfect place for a get away from the hustle bustle of the city. The owners made the transition very easy and welcoming. The property sits on a beautiful pond with a deck where i sat in peace and quiet every morning with my coffee and the sounds of nature all around. We could stay here and kayak or fish all day. Or we could drive in to Mount Desert or another town that is only a short drive . The location is perfect. We will definitely be back. ##### beth a.

Séjour de 6 nuits en août 2024 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Debra S. 8 août 2024 Points forts : Propreté #### Above Expectations! The property is amazing yet reasonably close to nearby attractions. The outdoor area is fantastic, Eagle, Osprey & Loon watching. Kayaks & SUP’s available for use. It made for a PERFECT 1st trip to Maine! ##### Debra S. Séjour de 7 nuits en août 2024 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Gina P., Saint Louis, MO USA 2 août 2024 Points forts : Propreté #### What a Wonderful Stay! This lakeside rental was one of our highlights on an amazing two-week New England road trip. Based on advice from friends, we booked this home because it was outside busy Bar Harbor and that ended up being perfect for us. After busy morning/early afternoons in Acadia National Park we all looked forward to going back to "the lake house" in Franklin and leaving the chaos behind. George's Pond is clear and beautiful. We watched loons and eagles and many fireside sunsets. Fished and swam off the dock (my son caught a huge bass right off the dock) and kayaked (with the supplied kayaks) all over the lake. The home is spacious, super clean and well stocked. We were able to get to Acadia NP within 40 min and larger grocery stores were about 15 min away from the house. Although there were smaller convenience stores just a few minutes from the house. The owner was responsive (although we didn't need him other than a quick "hello, we've arrived" and there were no fussy departure instructions - just the normal stuff you'd expect. It was an amazing stay in an amazing home and if we are ever in this area again we would not hesitate to stay here again! ##### Gina P.

The serene views, comfortable accommodations, and thoughtful amenities made our vacation truly unforgettable. We look forward to the opportunity to visit again! Warm regards, Avin Family ##### MITRA A. Séjour de 4 nuits en juillet 2024 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Paul B. 13 juill. 2024 Points forts : Propreté #### A perfect week! This was a wonderful getaway. The house was clean, comfy, and had everything we needed. Comfy beds, nice bathrooms, and great outdoor spaces. The location is perfect - close enough to town and Acadia, but far enough away so we didn't feel like tourists. :) Georges Pond is lovely - friendly neighborhood, pristine water, amazing views. We made good use of the kayaks and paddle boards and swam in the pond every day. The sunsets were spectacular, and I especially loved the quiet solitude of early morning coffee by the water. We soo enjoyed this house and our week on Georges Pond! ##### Paul B. Séjour de 7 nuits en juillet 2024 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Alexander L. 7 juill. 2024 Points forts : Propreté #### The house on George’s Pond was excellent! A fantastic location, and a top notch house and amenities. Great spot for swimming, kayaking and fishing off of the dock. My family and I loved the place. Thanks to the ownership for having such a nice place ready for travelers! ##### Alexander L.
