Perfect!

We loved everything about this cottage. It is quaint, clean, private, right on the water, and very well maintained. The porch was amazing! We had an awful weather week, but enjoyed games, puzzles, the porch, fishing, hiking and being near North Conway things to do. Our teens loved having their own cottage and the SUP. We are grateful our family dog was with us. Would definitely stay again!

Fantastic location and great home

Everything was wonderful about our stay. One of the best rentals we have had over the years, and Janet has thought of everything, and the house is so very clean. The location cannot be beat with the waterfront, the dock and the swimming raft and loved having the boats available to us. Kitchen is well stocked and strong wifi (for those of us who had to do a little work while away). We didn't get a chance to watch the movies she has stocked, but there were a bunch of our favorites. Thank you for sharing your home with us! We'll be back!

Kezar stay

What a wonderful cottage, it is immaculate and equipped with everything you need inside and out. We enjoyed all of the water craft, the dock and the sandy beach. Janet is readily available if needed. The Lake itself is a special place very little boat traffic and exceptionally clean. I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the Loons that my wife and I would sneak out to see in the early morning sometimes up to 10 in a group. We loved our stay and are planning to return

Great place to stay on the lake

We really enjoyed our time at Leaning Pines. Janet is very attentive to everything and was very prepared. We wanted for nothing while we were there. This is the type of property and owner who has rented before and knows that having exactly what you need makes the experience so much better. We've seen some places which offer an eclectic (junky) assortment of orphaned items in multiple drawers which are explained as "utensils". Not here. Everything is orderly, newer and cared for. Don't worry, it is still a more rustic camp on the lake. Janet has spent the time to label, explain, make available and make easy every part of the house and property. We had 6 in our party and never felt crowded. 9 steps to the water and 12 steps to the dock, it was exactly what we were hoping for.

Beautiful location on the lake

This is a sweet little cottage right on the lake. Has most everything you need for a comfortable stay. Really enjoyed the dock and the boats and the little beach. Beautiful views of water and sky as the weather changes. There’s also a nice screened-in porch for hanging out and reading and just looking at the lake. The bathroom is tiny and if you had more than two people in the main place it might be a squeeze. But it’s certainly workable. Kitchen as well equipped. There were just two of us so we didn’t use the little guest cottage but that’s a nice space for an extra person or a couple. Check in and check out times are unusually late/early so your stay is cut short, which is a shame, especially given the rates.. Overall, recommend this place for a relaxing week on Laje Kezar.

We had lots of fun at this lake front cottage. There are kayaks, a canoe and a paddle board to use on the lake. Nice Sandy beach for swimming. Beautiful views of the lake and mountains from the cottage.

Idyllic getaway, magical place

We loved our time at Leaning Pines. Kezar Lake was just what our family needed to relax and enjoy nature and each other. Janet is wonderful host who is kind, proactive and thoughtful, full of wonderful stories, respectful of guests privacy, and has thought of every detail to make the cottage perfect and family friendly - kayak, canoe, row boat and paddle board. Life jackets of all sizes, sand toys, charcoal a grill and fire pit. A fully stocked kitchen. So many great books maps and local resources. The most comfortable hammock I have ever been in. We didn’t need anything for our stay and only wished we could have stayed longer. The call of the loons every day was magical. Thank you for sharing this treasure with us!

Beyond peaceful and beautiful

We frequently rent houses for vacation and they usually aren't as clean as I would like. This was absolutely the cleanest home with all the kitchen amenities I could ask for. I didn't clean a thing! The cottage was lovely, quiet and so well cared for. We are already talking about coming back. This was the best cared for home I've ever stayed in!!!

Kezar Lake Heaven

We have rented more than 20 places with VRBO over that last few decades, and this cottage ranks at the top - for the view, the amenities, cleanliness, and prompt/helpful communication with the owner. Janet has thought of absolutely everything a guest would want - from kitchen equipment to boating equipment, from storage places to numerous seating arrangements to comfortably gather and gaze at the gorgeous lake. She even told us where to pick up wood nearby along Rt. 5 or West Lovell Rd. for the fire pit. The cottage is immaculate and she has gone to extraordinary lengths to ensure that guests needn’t fear COVID-19 contamination. We have returned to this area of Maine for family gatherings for many years and tell all our friends in CT that they must visit. Activities include taking a 20-minute easy hike up Jockey Cap in Fryeburg to see Mt. Washington in the distance, getting great produce at Weston’s Farm and Market, driving a loop north through Grafton Notch to stop at waterfalls and gorges, walking a pleasant greenway in Bethel, driving south of Andover to the old Lovejoy Covered Bridge and past a field of buffalo, taking a 2-hour cruise on the Songo Queen paddlewheel boat and then visit to the last surviving Songo River lock in Naples, biking 9 miles back and forth on the “rail-with-trail” Sebago to the Sea greenway from Otter Ponds on Rt. 35 in Standish to S. Windham, driving up to Hacker’s Hill Preserve on Quaker Ridge Rd. off Rt. 302 in Casco for a beautiful sunset view, picnicking and seeing a moose and other rehabilitated animals up close at the Maine Wildlife Park, and planning a future visit to Sabbathday Shaker Museum. There is LOTS to do here for people of all ages, from 3 to 99! Oh, and Kezar Lake is so clear that you can hop off the dock (fully clothed, no less) in mid- September and dive down to the bottom to retrieve your iPhone that fell out of your shirt pocket while bringing in the canoe. The nice warm shower feels good afterwards!

Nice property for family stay

We enjoyed having an extra guest cabin for our kids who had a toddler. The screened in wrap around porch was nice to enjoy meals as a group. The kayaks, row boat, and stand up paddle board was also an additional asset since we did not have to pack up our own and bring them with us. Everything was very clean.

Everyone had the most wonderful 3 weeks at this idelic Maine lakefront cottage

The cottage was exactly like I imagined and hoped it would be from the pictures, description and reviews. Over the 3 weeks my husband and I had several days alone to enjoy the cottage but also loved having our 3 grandchildren 2, 5 and 8 along with their parents join us. And on others days we welcomed friends to share this special place with us. The guest cottage that includes a full bath and laundry added the room We needed with privacy for our guests. We took advantage of the proximity to the surrounding mountains with hikes for all levels. North Conway and Bridgton were 20 -30 minutes away for shopping. Loved the fresh produce at Weston's and Sherman 's farm stands. A self serve corn stand opened only a few minutes from the cottage a few days after we arrived. Best corn ever! The waterfront is sandy and clean...perfect for swimming and fishing. Canoe, paddle board, kayaks and rowboat made fun activities for all. Leaning Pines was the best equipped rental property we have ever rented. All you need to bring are your clothes and food. Janet and Judy have made sure it was super clean and well stocked along with beach toys, games and movies. The side lawn was perfect for badminton, volleyball and croquet. The fire pit was lite and smores were a delicious hit a few nights. We had a few dinners and a lunch at the Pleasant Point Inn about 5 minutes away. A waterfront restaurant. Food was delicious and reasonable. Janet is delightful and is only a minute away should you need anything. I would give Leaning Pines 10 stars if I could...but please do not tell anyone about it....we want to come back asap!

Kezar Lake

Beautiful lake front property and home, plenty of room for our family of seven (ages 14-70). Sunrises across the lake. Easy to communicate with Janet. Great cold and warm water fishery. Firepit and marshmallows each night, do remember to bring your bug spray for twilight hours or simple retreat to the huge wrap around screened in porch. Will be back next summer!

Gem on Kezar Lake

Leaning Pines is a charming rental on Kezar Lake. The location, views and serenity of this rental's location are just what the doctor ordered. Additionally this is one of the most comfortable, well kept, well stocked rentals I've had the pleasure of renting in the state of Maine. (And I've rented a number of lake front properties in Maine over the past 6-7 years). Janet, the owner, has literally thought of everything - her pride of ownership is noticeable her attention to detail and the cleanliness of the property. I highly recommend this property and will definitely be renting it again!
