Sand Pond Escape located in Picturesque East Baldwin, ME.

This seasonal property is located on a very quiet 70 acre pond in the rural Town of East Baldwin. The camp is located right on the shore of the pond and includes a small sandy beach and dock. The water is shallow in front of the camp making it ideal for guests with young children. The depth increases gradually and there are no sudden drop-offs. The bottom is mostly sandy with no aquatic vegetation to have to wade through.

The property is located 1/2 mile in on a dirt road from Rte. 11/107. The camp includes two bedrooms with queen size beds and one bedroom with twin bunk beds. There is a single bathroom with a shower only. The water comes from a drilled well so there are no problems with the water quality. For your entertainment, the camp has DIRECTV, a DVD and a VCR player with numerous dvd's and VHS tapes provided. The camp has a gas cook stove and an outdoor gas grille is provided for your grilling pleasure.

If you are interested in fishing, Sand Pond is noted as an excellent bass fishing pond. General fishing regulations apply to this pond and anyone 16 years old and over are required to have a State of Maine Fishing License. There are also no special boating regulations on this pond, however, any boat with any type of a motor must have a current boat registration from any state. Also, Maine requires that a suable sized life jacket must be in the boat for each person onboard.

There is a local convenience store located about a mile away known as The Whistle Stop. They make excellent pizzas as well as a variety of both hot and cold sandwiches and if you are running low on gas you'll find that they have gas pumps as well. If you need to do a lot of shopping, North Windham is only a 25 minute drive away and here you will find Shaw's, Hannaford and Walmart as well as just about all the various fast food chains like MacDonald's, Burger King, Dunkin Donuts, Dairy Queen, Wendy's, Kentucky Fried Chicken and more. If you like shopping the outlet stores, then the Town of North Conway, NH is the place for you and it is only a 40 minute drive and also has a Super Walmart and Shaw's.

Note: NO tents or campers are allowed to be set up or brought onto the property. Any guests that come over to visit are not allowed to stay overnight. Overnight stay is limited to the number of people listed on the rental agreement.

Peaceful and Serene
This is a lovely rustic cabin, complete with pine board walls. It was equipped with everything you need. It was so quiet that we felt as if we were all alone even though we had neighbors. Loved that the pond was right out our back door. Our dog was obsessed with sitting on the dock, watching the fish all day. The few people we ran into on our daily walks were friendly. It was a relaxing five days, which is what we were looking for.

Sand Pond Escape
We spent an excellent 2 weeks at Neal’s camp on this gorgeous pond. The tranquility and silence of almost zero boat traffic was lovely as we were able to appreciate the loons, the eagles and the ample bass literally flying out of the pond. Our 2 kids and our dog really enjoyed the shallow warm water as it allowed them to swim and explore for hours. The rustic charm of the camp was appreciated as it forced us to unplug and unwind.

Going Back In Time
Our visit brought us back in time. It felt like staying at Gramp's camp in Northern Maine during the 60s and 70s. The camp is rustic with just enough modern updates for comfort. The pond was like glass for most of our stay and the only ripples came from quiet paddlers or slow trolling fishermen. Sunsets from the dock were just beautiful. One of my favorite Maine traditions...the loons' calls...every night. Quiet dirt roads were mostly traffic free and perfect for walking. The serenity here transcends one back in time to a quieter place without noise, speed and hi-tech distractions. We needed a break from all that and found it here.

Perfect pond
Cabin sits on the edge of a sandy pond. Great for kids because it's very shallow. Also a perfect place to teach kids to kayak. We loved the quiet and spacious cabin. Would rent again.

Sands Pond Cottage
This place was very quite, was a great place to relax.The house itself was very rustic feel ,but very homey feel as well. The house was well stocked with what you would need in a kitchen. We enjoyed having a campfire in the evenings and listening to the loons. Also a good place if you have young children, as the pond is swallow for a longs ways out. We would rent again without any worries. Thanks for a great get away Neil and Lynne
