Welcome to Lovejoy Cottage
Leave the city stresses behind and relax to the sounds of loons, bald eagles, and bullfrogs. Wake in the morning to the sound of songbirds and look up from your comfortable bed to see the mist rising off of the glassy pond, looking across to the undisturbed marsh and picturesque farmland.
This cottage is the perfect peaceful getaway, with a comfortable, cozy interior, calm waters with a dock and float, and a two-person kayak and a canoe. Explore scenic Lovejoy Pond, a quiet, calm lake that stretches nearly 4.5 miles with very little motorized boat activity. Enjoy a morning coffee on the deck watching the eagles soar over the lake, then head over to the famed mid-coast towns of Belfast and Camden for shopping and dining, then return home for a glass of wine at the fire pit, listening to the loons and the bullfrogs. Or stay local, relaxing with a good book or catching fish right off the private dock.
Nestled in Albion’s rolling hills, picturesque farms and beautiful pastureland, Lovejoy Cottage is adjacent to Maine’s mid-coast region and ideally situated for day trips to the coast and Acadia National Park, to Portland and L.L. Bean in Freeport, or to any number of local festivals held throughout the summer. The cottage is located just 15 minutes from the historic town of Waterville with its theaters and restaurants, and 45 minutes from the famed mid coast area. Belfast, Rockport, Camden and Rockland are all nearby coastal towns renowned for their excellent restaurants, great antiquing and shopping, and thriving arts scene as well as spectacular coastal scenery. Camden Hills State Park boasts some of the loveliest views and hiking in the State of Maine.
Property Details
Room | Bed | Comments |
Sunporch | Queen | Antique-style iron queen-sized bed with water view |
Pineside | Double | Peaceful water view, solid cherry wood double bed |
Boatside | Twin | Kid’s room with water view, twin bed |
The cottage features two bedrooms and a sleeping porch, which is a guest favorite. All bedrooms have water views. In fact, you’ll see the water from almost every window at Lovejoy Cottage! For warmer summer days, the cottage is fully air-conditioned, although there are great breezes off the lake. The kitchen features granite counters and cherry cabinets. Both the kitchen and bathroom have been fully renovated.
There are plenty of places to sleep at this cottage, but we limit to four guests to ensure a comfortable stay. The sun porch room is for the early risers who love to commune with nature. The view of the pond is the first thing that you see in the morning and the moon and the stars over the otherwise completely darkened pond are the last thing that you see at night as you fall asleep to the sound of the frogs and crickets.
The pine side room is a peaceful, private place to sleep in the back of the house, tastefully furnished, with a window to catch the breezes off of the majestic white pines at the back of the cottage. This bedroom also enjoys a water view.
Boat side is a cozy room with a twin sized bed, generous dresser, and a water view.

What Our Guests Say
Reviews
Another Wonderful Stay
Thank you again for another wonderful stay. Quick long weekend getaway with my mom. And she loved it as much as we did in August. Weather was beautiful and other than a day at Acadia, we spent the rest of our time relaxing and enjoying the view. Thank you again Susan and Alan. Best wishes.
Beautiful, Peaceful, Restful
Such a beautiful, peaceful, restful, and exciting place to spend part of our honeymoon! 10/10, would spend another week here if we could. In addition to the current list of wildlife spotting, we also saw a juvenile red fox our first night. Thank you for opening your home to us so that we could explore… this corner of Maine!

Lovejoy Cottage is Absolutely Lovely

We absolutely loved our stay at Lovejoy Cottage. We are a family of four and are fortunate that our children, 20 and 22, still enjoy vacationing as a family. From the moment we walked in the door, we knew we found the right place. It is quite evident that owners Susan and Alan have worked… very hard to make Lovejoy Cottage a “home away from home” for their guests. Inside, the cozy kitchen has beautiful granite countertops and cherry cabinets. The comfortable living/dining area is sprinkled with many special touches that feel like Maine. The bedrooms have beautiful furniture with extremely comfortable beds. But the best part in the cottage is the sun porch. This is where my husband and I slept and woke each morning to incredible views of the sun coming up over the pond. Directly off the sun porch, is the huge deck that is great for lazing and enjoying the cormorants hanging out in the water. If you are looking to relax in a beautifully appointed cottage on a quiet and serene pond – Lovejoy Cottage is the place to be. In fact, we loved it so much, that I have already booked another stay, this time with my mom! Read more “Lovejoy Cottage is Absolutely Lovely”
Soooooooo relaxing!!
Beautiful cottage, lovingly maintained. Will have great memories of stargazing, campfires, and watching all the pond critters. Bald eagles are AMAZING!!! Thank you for a fantastic week!
Clean, tidy, welcoming, and peaceful
It was at first a challenge to even get to Maine! The COVID-19 virus tossed up many a roadblock to our visit. How blessed we were as we entered the doors to Lovejoy Cottage! Clean, tidy, welcoming and oh so peaceful. It was obvious that great care was taken to make visitors feel at home.… The weather co-operated and even the remnants of the tropical storm Isaias did not disappoint — some rain, but high winds which were of no consequence — the cottage proved noise-proof and secure. Susan and Alan and whatever services they employ really know their stuff and we were the beneficiaries of it. Whoever follows us, we hope your stay was as good as ours. P.S. thank you for well stocked towels! We also hope you enjoy the cormorants that love to hang out on the dock, the bald eagles that fly overhead, and hummingbirds that frequent the flowers on the deck.

Relaxing and serene
This was such a chill vacation. We loved the amazing sunrises and how still the pond was as we kayaked in the mornings. We were almost always the only ones on the water. We were stoked to see the bald eagles and laughed as we watched the birds on the swim platform stake out their… positions. We left totally refreshed. This was one of the best vacations we’ve had in a long time. Thank you for offering up such a wonderful place. Oh, and your restaurant recommendations were spot on. Highly recommend!
