Sunfish Cove is the perfect year round getaway.

Welcome to Sunfish Cove, where the sunrise greets you in the morning as it beams over Sand Pond. This perfect year round getaway offers Summer fun in the water, amazing Fall colors and lots of opportunities to play in the snow & on the ice over the Winter months, making this a great destination for your year round adventures.
As an extended generational family ourselves, Sunfish Cove is designed to meet the needs of 2-3 families. A wonderful location for a reunion or a gathering of friends looking to spend time together. Adults and children will all enjoy everything this home has to offer.
Relaxation, peace, and let’s not forget overwhelming fun, will take over as you enjoy the generous 300’ of water frontage with a dock for easy access. There is a second dock to additional frontage on a shallow cove.
Sand Pond connects to 3 other ponds with a total of 6 miles in length to paddle and for boating. Enjoy swimming, fishing, and kayaking just a few steps from your front door facing the lake. A patio with a gas grill, picnic tables, and fire pit are located just through the walk out ground floor recreation room.
With just under 3000 square feet of floor space, this quintessential Maine home offers water views from nearly every room and has been updated to provide you added comfort.
Our favorite spot in the house is the enclosed porch with walls of windows that surround the home on three sides to ensure the weather never rains out your lakeside adventure. The spacious main living area has a large screen Smart TV, lots of comfortable seating and a river stone fireplace original to the charming 1920’s home. The dining room boasts a large table with bench seating that has a history going back to the original lake cottage. The remodeled, fully equipped kitchen has all new appliances and features walnut butcher block countertops, a large stainless sink, gas range, microwave, refrigerator/freezer with ice maker, dishwasher, toaster, Keurig coffee maker, and blender. The large island provides ample prep space, as well as, a wonderful place to gather around while preparing a meal.
Multiple powerful ceiling fans and a waterfront breeze keep the area comfortable in any weather. There are four bedrooms, 3 on the upstairs level, 1 on the ground floor level, and a futon in the family room. There is also a remodeled She Shed/Bunk House that can sleep an additional two for summer only “Glamping” (glamorous camping).
All outdoor spaces have generous seating. The dock provides a swim ladder and there are multiple kayaks, a paddle boat and plenty of floating tubes to ensure summer time fun on the water. For more outdoor fun, provided is corn hole, badminton and other fun yard games.
The game room is located on the walkout ground floor level, ensuring that the night owls wanting to stay up late and play don't disturb the early to bed crowd. A Smart TV, as well as, a ping pong table and foosball table round out this large space made to entertain. A refrigerator and microwave round out this great party space.
Amenities include linens and towels, washer/dryer, gas grill, Smart TV's, and wireless internet.
This Private location is just minutes from I-95, There is an 18 hole golf course only 4 miles away. LL Bean, outlet stores and specialty shopping only 40 minutes away. Visit Portland for sightseeing, great restaurants, or take a lobster boat tour and catch your own lobsters.
Parking is available for eight vehicles. Yard space is perfect for a game of catch, bocce, badminton corn-hole or other lawn sports. A large shed is available for storage of fishing gear, or whatever other toys you want to bring.
Please excuse the appearance of the downstairs recreation room as it is currently being renovated. The downstairs bathroom renovations have been completed.

What a great spot. Perfect for our friends getaway holiday. Enough beds for everyone, room to spread out and not be on top of each other, but be together if we chose to. The kitchen had everything we needed and then some. We were delighted when someone would say 'hey did anyone bring' and the reply was always to look in some spot in the kitchen because someone in our crew had seen the item.

We had a delightful stay at Sunfish Cove with our adult children for Christmas. Carl and Jill were great to communicate with, the house accommodated 7 adults and a dog really well. We had a beautiful snow the night of our arrival and the driveway was fully plowed out for us. The 2 gentlemen who plowed us out were great. The house is clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the ping pong table and fooseball table. We will definitely come again.

We stayed 7 nights in September at this beautiful home. Very spacious and plenty of comfortable beds. The wrap around enclosed porch and water views were amazing. Most of our time was spent at the property and on the lake. Only the 4-year-old was brave enough for swimming though. Cool evening and warmer days were pleasant. We also enjoyed the local shops and Farm Stand. The cider doughnuts there are highly recommended.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! The house is large and filled with charm. It was the perfect spot for our extended family of 11. The home is well stocked, and the hosts are very quick to respond to any queries. Most importantly, nothing beats that lake frontage. Fishing was good too- we caught trout, bass and perch.

Our family had such a wonderful time at Sunfish Cove. The property is right on the water and the morning sunrises were the absolute best. There was plenty of room for our family of 8 adults, 2 children, and 2 dogs. The kitchen was spacious with plenty of room for everyone. The sunroom overlooking the lake was perfect for morning coffee and for just hanging out. We enjoyed many mornings/afternoons boating and exploring the Tacoma Lakes and also took advantage of the many kayaks and canoes provided for our use. Great property, cannot wait to come back!!!

We loved the house and the big wrap around enclosed porches make it spacious! The lake is quiet and beautiful, the property is nicely private for a lake front home. The house clearly dates way back, but necessary updates and upgrades have been done to make it comfortable and much more of a home than a camp. Hope to stay again!
