Property Description
Remember when getting away meant actually getting away? This
rare waterfront retreat on Clark Point, Lake George in Canaan, Maine offers the
opportunity to reconnect with nature, family, and a simpler way of life.
Accessible only by boat, snowmobile, or seaplane, this property delivers the
privacy and seclusion many dream about but few ever find. Yet despite its
remote feel, you’re only 7 miles from downtown Skowhegan and less than two
hours from Portland.
Set on 1.81± acres with 200 feet of private shoreline, the
property includes common rights to a 35-acre conservation parcel that directly
abuts approximately 1,600 acres of Plum Creek timberlands, creating an
expansive backdrop for recreation, exploration and a deep woods feel that is
rare to find so close to civilization. A magnificent old growth maple tree
stands behind the cabin, adding character and shade to the property.
Built in 2005, the 26′ x 36′ cabin was thoughtfully designed
and built with quality materials for comfort and durability. It rests on
precast piers and features western red cedar siding and trim, a standing seam
metal roof with membrane and rigid foam insulation, and quality Andersen
windows throughout, including three custom picture windows that frame beautiful
views. Tongue-and-groove wood flooring adds warmth and charm, while generator
wiring provides off-grid convenience. Additional improvements include an
outhouse and a dock system for easy lake access.
Lake George encompasses approximately 335 acres with depths
reaching 68 feet and is renowned for its combined cold and warm-water fishery.
Anglers enjoy opportunities to catch brown trout, brook trout, rainbow trout,
and smallmouth bass in all four seasons. In fact, the fourth largest rainbow
trout ever recorded in Maine was caught in this lake. The calls of loons echo
across the water, enhancing the peaceful setting that defines this special
property.
Lake George State Park encompasses 320+ acres with 8,000
feet of lake frontage under its conservation umbrella and has a beautiful sand
swimming beach, miles of trails for hiking, snowshoeing and xc-skiing.
The sale includes nearly a dock system, furnishings and
other personal property, allowing a new owner to begin enjoying the camp
immediately. Kayaks, life jackets, and much of the existing equipment will
convey, making this a true turnkey retreat. The current boat storage
arrangement at nearby KO Storage in Canaan may also be transferable to the
buyer.
Whether you’re seeking a fishing camp, family getaway,
recreational base camp, or a place to completely unplug from the demands of
modern life, this Lake George property offers it all.
