4. The Skyframe

11mi from Milton · 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?

30mi from Milton · 7 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging · Limington, ME

Family owned property obtained through the barter system. You shingle my barn and I'll give you that property. My Pappy's land. 11 acres. Recently cleared for its timber. With some landscaping it became clear that beautiful campsites were forming. My father is 78 years old. The last thing he ever thought he would be doing with his retirement is jumping back on his excavator. Can't keep a good man down. Now here we are. Father and daughter. One day my children. 3 large tent sites and two camper sites. Future cabin and seasonal RV sites. A brook runs through the property but dries up after June. There is a small pond with rock stairs. Deer and turkey are frequently seen. Peace and serenity. This property does not offer complete seclusion. You will see other campers if all 3 sites are occupied. There is spacious distance. What this location offers is that it is centrally located to mountains, oceans, lakes,concert venues, restaurants, nightlife, shopping and antiquing. Traveling to NH and Massachusetts is a day trip. A few hours and your in central Maine. Cross the border into Canada. So much to explore or just relax. Stay a few nights or stay the season. 2023 is off to a great camping season. Already meeting new campers. Hopefully I'll see some familiar faces from 2022. A few upgrades. There is an outside water faucet, an outlet and an outside shower...hot and a privacy fence. There is a bathroom/shed that contains a toilet. Goats are coming. Yes goats. Not until fall though. The frog pond population continues to grow. A neighboring town is finding 3 legged frogs in their ponds. Apparently caused by a parasite. Let me know if you find any. 2024 was another great season. New faces that I hope to see again. The summer weather was great for camping. A large Bell Tent and a small portable camper was purchased for those who are seeking more of a glamping experience. WELCOME BACK for 2026... 2025 had some complications unfortunately. Due to some unforeseen circumstances, I was unable to invite anyone to my property. Consider yourself invited for the 2026 season. I look forward to hosting new and repeat campers. There is a free weekend offer for those who would like to camp and work to prepare for Memorial Day weekend. WELCOME ALL!!

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.
