Winter Lakefront Escape, Ice Fishing & Skiing

A peaceful winter wonderland, fresh snow and a frozen lake!
In winter, Little Wilson Pond takes on a whole new kind of magic. Spend your days ice fishing on the frozen lake, exploring nearby trails, or heading out for a day of skiing. Return to the warmth of this beloved family retreat, where the pace slows, the scenery is beautiful, and there’s nowhere else you need to be.
Whether you’re seeking outdoor adventure or a quiet getaway surrounded by Maine’s winter beauty, this is a place to make memories in every season.
Just 50 minutes from Portland, yet a world away from the everyday, Little Wilson Pond is a special place to experience the best of Maine winter.

THE PROPERTY: Enjoy the open-concept living room with a cozy fireplace, flowing into the dining area and kitchen, all featuring large windows with beautiful lake views. This level also offers a bedroom with a private bathroom, making it ideal for guests who prefer step-free living.
Upstairs, three additional 3 bedrooms with a mix of king and queen beds give everyone their own space, along with a pull-out sofa for extra guests. The bedroom at the top of the stairs has its own full bath, and a third full bathroom is conveniently located in the hall, easily accessible from the other two rooms. A second living area with games, books, and sweeping lake views is the kind of room people end up spending more time in than they expect.

Outside, a private tree-lined yard with multiple seating areas and a gas grill leads directly to the water, with a canoe, kayak, inflatables, and fishing gear ready to go whenever you are.

Little Wilson Pond is a year-round destination. Summer is magical, but fall might be even better — the foliage around the pond is stunning and the pace is wonderfully unhurried. Come winter, Sunday River is an hour away, and you can ice fish right on the pond from your own backyard — one of the most quintessentially Maine experiences there is!
