Pop's Cabin at Camp Skoglund

Pop's Cabin is a special place. For many years it was the home of my Norwegian grandparents every summer - much good food, laughter, and song were enjoyed inside these walls! For the last 20+ years it has been a rental cottage for guests at our summer camp, Camp Skoglund. Now that I have semi-retired Camp Skoglund has two cottages for rent with the same amenities, boats, and docks as before. Spacious living area, gas stove for heat, master bedroom with queen bed, twin beds in 2nd bedroom. The space Camp Skoglund was a camp for boys started by my father in 1956. When he retired he turned camp into a family camp with five rental cottages. Most of our guests returned year after year including many of our former campers. I have lived here year round for the last 20 years after leaving my corporate career just to be here and run camp with my Dad. In 2024 I sold a portion of the property while maintaining two of the rental cottages and my own home plus most of the waterfront activity area and woodland. The property allows plenty of space for privacy and peace and quiet and our location on the lake faces due west affording the most beautiful sunsets. We are twenty minutes west of Augusta in the famous Belgrade Lakes region. Easy access from Portland and the Coast. The Nest is my other rental cottage and is down the hill from Pop's on your way to the docks. Pop's sits approximately 250 feet from the lake and while it does not afford water views, they are only steps away. While Pop's has a second bedroom my goal here at camp is to provide a private and restful vacation experience, thus, I prefer to have only two people in each cottage at a time. I will however entertain requests for four on a limited basis -$35 per person per day. Please inquire. Along with my other cabin, the Nest, it is possible to rent both cottages together - thereby being able to house six people. Guest access There are three dock spaces for guest use, three kayaks, three canoes, and two paddle boards. Our waterfront spans over 150 feet so there is plenty of room for privacy, play, and relaxation. There is also a fire pit on the waterfront and wood is provided. Other things to note One dog is permitted, upon approval. Dogs are not to be left alone in the cabins unless crated and provided that they don't tend to bark when left alone.
