4. The Skyframe

42mi from Bridgton · 1 site · Lodging · Springvale, ME

Skyframe is one of 5 luxurious tiny homes that make up Littlefield Retreat, a tranquil woodland village of 3 treehouses and 2 hobbit houses – each with its own private hot tub and dock. To see all five dwellings, click on the photo to the left of “Hosted by Bryce”, then click “Show more…”. This 15-acre forest retreat on Littlefield Pond offers our guests an experience that feels like a trip up to the woods of northern Maine, but is closer to home and to all the attractions of southern Maine. The space Waking up in your treehouse, the first thing you feel is peace. No traffic, no sirens, no planes flying overhead. Only birdsong—the cry of a loon, the piping of a chickadee. Through the windows, you see only leaves, like green glass, filtering the early morning light. Below you, on the ground, a doe and her fawn pick their way down to the pond. They do not hurry, for there is nothing here to frighten them. Downstairs in the kitchen, coffee is brewing. Your tablet is charging on the windowsill. You could check your email or social media, but for some reason you don’t want the world to intrude. Out on the deck, a warm mug cradled in your hands, you and your partner plan your morning. Perhaps you’ll paddle the kayak across Littlefield Pond while the mist still lies thick on its smooth surface. Or take a fishing pole down to your private dock to catch brook trout for breakfast. Or maybe just soak in the hot tub and listen to the forest awaken. In the afternoon, you sit by the woodstove, engrossed in that book you’ve always meant to read. Your companions are playing a board game at the table, but mostly laughing and talking—about everything and nothing. You look up from your book and smile. For a moment you think about your life back home and ask yourself, “Why do we own so much stuff? What would our lives be like if we lived more like this, with fewer—but lovelier—things?

5 nights at Laughing Bear Cottages - Squam Lake

I stayed at the Papa Bear cottage for 5 days with my two teenage sons. The cottage was small but well-maintained, clean, and thoughtfully provisioned with everything needed for basic cooking. The lake is beautiful, and it’s a wonderful area for paddling and hiking. It was 90 degrees during our visit, but I was pleasantly surprised by how cool and comfortable the cottage was even during the day. There is quite a bit of traffic noise, especially in the morning, but we got used to it.

Authentic, simple, and a highly desirable location. The cottage provided amazing access to the lake - with kayaks, bar-b-que grill (and all tools), full kitchen, and an ideal location all made our visit wonderful. The cabin was very located and close to top notch restaurants. Papa Bear cabin is the real deal and the family that maintains it knows this and celebrates it. They clearly love the place. We 100% would return again.

3 nights at Laughing Bear Cottages - Squam Lake

Great little cabin for very basic needs in the Squam lakes area. Bed was comfortable, kitchen is a little cramped but I made it work. Nice shaded area kept the cabin cooler during the warmer days. The private beach was a very short walk across the street and I made great use of the kayak. The "fire pit" I deemed unsafe to use as the area for Papa Bear is quite small and they had it near there wooden fence and cabin 5' spacing between both. I could easily see either the fence or the cabin easily catching fire. The mama bear site has a much better area for having a fire and it also has a picnic table. The cabin is close to everything, there is a great store right down the road that makes amazing sandwiches and baked goods. A very old school shur fine store for dinner essentials and Command Man locations on every corner for food.

These little cabins are so adorable! Very clean and thoughtfully appointed. I can see why people return year after year. I especially loved the back porch right on the river. It was too chilly to spend much time out there, but having my morning coffee out there with the sound of the flowing river was so peaceful. The owner was lovely and thoughtful; when I arrived, she'd been in my cabin turning the heater on to ensure it was cozy for me. I definitely recommend this place!

I am in love with this cabin! It was warm and cozy. Having a view of the flowing Pemi surrounded by feet of snow was absolutely special. The cabin had everything I needed for a relaxing retreat to recharge before hitting the slopes nearby. Can’t wait to visit again.
