SALMON LAKE Offered for the first time in more than 30 years, this meticulously maintained 2-bedroom, 1-bath seasonal camp is the perfect place to create lasting summer memories. Located just steps from the water, you'll wake to the call of loons, enjoy morning coffee from the inviting porch, and spend your days swimming, boating, fishing, and exploring the lake. The property features exceptional waterfront amenities, including a large dock system with deep-water frontage, ideal for larger boats as well as kayaking, canoeing, and sailing. A nice set of stairs and a gentle entry to the lake make it ideal for all abilities to enjoy the water. Western exposure provides breathtaking sunset views over the lake each evening and a nice level lakeside area is ideal for campfires. Inside, the charming chalet-style camp has been thoughtfully updated over the years, including a first-floor bedroom, full bath, and laundry addition, an updated kitchen with granite countertops and custom cabinetry, and a gas fireplace for cool spring and fall evenings. Other recent improvements include a new septic system and a new roof, as well as a generator hookup for added peace of mind. Newer detached 2-car garage on a slab foundation offers electricity and finished living space above, complete with a half bath--perfect for guests, a home office, or recreation space. A separate bunkhouse provides even more room for family and friends. Conveniently located near the amenities of Oakland and Waterville, the property also offers high-speed internet for remote work and is part of a welcoming lakeside community. With nearly 8 miles of shoreline, excellent sport fishing, a public boat launch, and an active lake association, Salmon Lake is one of central Maine's hidden gems. The lake also connects through ''The Narrows'' to McGrath Pond, adding approximately 7 more miles of shoreline to explore. Come make this your home base for three seasons of fun at the lake!
