Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Acton

Every year we pick a place on the lake between Mother's and Father's day to celebrate over a weekend. We love to kayak and visit the local eateries while relaxing in nature. This year we were fortunate enough to find Katherine's home in Acton, ME for Memorial Day weekend. The house was spacious, comfortable, clean, and homey (and right on the lake)! Katherine and Nick were both very responsive and friendly with check-in check-out and we loved the places listed on their travel guide. The house is a short hour drive from Kennebunkport and Portland so we took some day trips during the rainy days and floated around the peaceful inlet of Mousam Lake when sunny. Leaving the inlet takes you to the rest of Mousam Lake where we saw motor boats, jet skis and one person wake boarding! Our old dog, Shaggy, had a blast and the long road leading to the property gave him the ability to run around without bothering any neighbors, who were all very friendly! Definitely worth a return visit!

Loved staying here! You can hear the river from the front door, it’s cozy and clean, and very comfortable! Would stay again!

This home was perfect for our family stay for a local wedding. It was a quiet relaxing place on the water! We enjoyed kayaking and sitting on the swing enjoying the view. The home included everything we needed and was very clean, spacious and comfortable. I would highly recommend this home to anyone looking in this area!

Fantastic spot. We stayed in the fall. It was quiet on the lake. We enjoyed SUPing and Kayaking. Was happy to find “one earth” natural grocer up the road a bit. We enjoyed a fire in the wood stove every night. The Loons were a special treat too. It is steep and lots of stairs to the water but worth the climb. :) Lea was so accommodating and responded immediately to every inquiry. Hoping to book again next fall!

We had a great extended long weekend stay at Karen’s!! The place was warm & inviting- perfect for a colder than anticipated Memorial Day Weekend — we took advantage of the pellet stove and were still able to take in awesome lake views from the comfort of the living room. Our young girls had a blast “swimming” in the large jacuzzi bath tub and playing/ sleeping on the bunk beds in one of the bedrooms. We did manage to get out on our boat which was easy to dock at the slip associated with the rental. No fish caught this time around but still fun trying. The location of Karen’s place is awesome- very close/ walking distance to tasty restaurants & public boat launch. We cooked most of our own meals & were grateful for the well stocked kitchen as well as having a grocery store less than 5 min away. Karen was a fantastic host with quick response times from time of booking & then following checkout ensuring that our stay was as seamless as possible. We hope to return in the future! 😊

My family and I had a serene experience staying here. Although the weather was mostly rainy or cloudy, we loved the lake location and maximized the indoor, outdoor, and nearby activity options. The hosts were so responsive, regardless of the question, and made this a truly delightful visit. This was my parents’ first Airbnb experience and it set the bar higher than I could have imagined! My family and I are already talking about coming back!!

Darryl is extremely responsive and helpful! His place was perfect for a weekend getaway for me, my sister, and our dog. For anyone traveling with dogs, would definitely recommend! We had no problem with ticks and she loved running in and out of the water and walking in the neighborhood, and decent shade outdoors in the afternoon.

The listing, the communication, the home, the location…all exceptional. Haven’t had a nicer place than this in a while. It was quiet and very comfortable. Minutes from great food, shopping, and things to love in the North Conway area. Very much recommended

Beautiful place to stay! Great amenities for the kids ! Will definitely go back ❤️

The place was so clean, quiet and peaceful. Secluded but so much to do in a short area. Can’t say enough good things. Will be coming back.

We had a wonderful stay in Angela’s beautiful home. It had great amenities, was super clean, and had everything we needed. Loved the pool and fire pit. The kitchen was roomy for cooking too. 5 stars!

My family and I had an amazing weekend. Melissa was very responsive and flexible with checking in/out. Everything was clean, plenty of linens and towels, great location, comfy beds. 10/10. We can’t wait to be back!

We stayed for a friends wedding and it was less than 10 minutes to the venue. The place was clean, easy to access and perfect for a group of us to stay!

Erik was a great host at an awesome cabin. We went through our whole stay without one question because everything was so well laid out ahead of time. Easy weekend of skiing. I would definitely book again next time we’re in the area. Thanks Erik!

Great house! Very spacious, plenty of bathrooms, and fantastic location. Very easy to communicate with the owners and check in/out was simple. My minor only critique is that we wish the grill were a bit bigger and nicer. We wanted to grill one day, but we were a little disappointed and unable to do so due to the grill quality. Would definitely stay again!

The building was a little dated. The room was clean and neat. Hot water in the bathroom sink could use improvement. Again, the property is older.

Great location

We loved the lakeside retreat! Everything we needed as road vagabonds during our house renovation. We would have loved staying longer for some full days on the lake or lakeside, or will for a longer, real vacation. Perfect size room for a couple and their dog. Very comfortable recliner chairs and good lighting. Air conditioner was needed and worked quickly after we arrived. Bed was so comfortable, like sleeping on a cloud! Everything we needed.

The Pancake House was the perfect getaway! Peaceful, relaxing, comfortable, and charming! The house is better than the photos can show, and offered plenty of space for fun and relaxation. We enjoy evenings by the fire after enjoying the sunset on the lake!

We really enjoyed our stay! Norma’s cabin was well equipped. The bottled water and Bluetooth, outdoor speakers were especially nice! After our daytime hiking and small town explorations, it was a cozy place to unwind and relax. So peaceful and beautiful. The panoramic view of the lake was fabulous!

We had a wonderful stay at this charming lake house! The place was clean and comfortable and it truly felt like a home away from home. Our host was incredibly friendly and responsive, making the check-in process seamless. The bunk beds were a huge hit with the kids – they absolutely loved having their own little space! We had so much fun kayaking on the lake and even managed to do a bit of fishing. The peaceful surroundings made our stay special. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a quiet spot!

If you’re looking for a tranquil and relaxed getaway on the water, look no further. We extended our trip because it was so beyond perfect. There were kayaks available to enjoy a soothing ride on the lake and enjoy the views. Our four legged friend enjoyed jumping onto the small beach area and running around the yard getting his exercise.

The cabin was the best AirBnb we've stayed in. Meticulously crafted space; flexible without feeling too big. The deck space continues the experience outside with fantastic views to the west. All the details have been curated here, with an intuitive kitchen space, comfortable and relaxed living room and ample bed/bath suites that made staying here so enjoyable. We would love to return to this cabin in the future! Highly recommend!

Walking into Andi‘s fishing cabin felt like going to grandma‘s house! It was so cozy and nice for our quick three day weekend in Maine. Everything that has been written in previous reviews is true. Including the extensive VHS collection lol! The view is beautiful, the atmosphere is peaceful, and we were so happy to sleep in the sunroom and wake up to the view of the lake Pond water in front of us. Easily accessible from the main road, close to restaurants, gas stations, and other amenities, including the Hannaford grocery. My fellow found himself on the dock fishing multiple times during our stay he caught a few trout. My favorite part is the fire pit area with the café lights. I love staying in the woods and this cabin fit our needs perfectly. Andi was a responsive host and we are grateful for his communication. Very positive and friendly! Hope to stay with you again next year!
