Summary:
Tucked along the quiet shores of Belgrade Stream and Messalonskee Lake, Sunset Chalet is a cozy waterfront hideaway designed for connection, comfort, and joy. Whether you’re sipping morning coffee on the deck, unwinding in your private hot tub, or making memories in the game room downstairs, this is a place to slow down, breathe deeply, and just be.
Built for couples, small families, or anyone seeking a four-season retreat, Sunset Chalet is where nature meets nostalgia—and every stay becomes a story worth telling.
The Space:
Step inside and you’re welcomed by pine-beamed ceilings, soft light, and the quiet presence of the forest just beyond the windows. The upstairs living space is open and warm, with a king bed, queen bed, and a beautiful gas fireplace that adds instant charm—perfect for curling up after a long soak in the hot tub or watching a movie on the 75” Google Smart TV.
The kitchenette is thoughtfully equipped with a gas stove, microwave, Keurig, mini fridge, dishware, and all the cookware you’ll need. A full-size refrigerator with freezer is available downstairs for your convenience—ideal for longer stays or family meals.
Step out onto your private deck, where your Jacuzzi hot tub waits beneath the trees. Whether it’s your first cup of coffee or a moonlit soak, this is where time slows down and everything feels a little softer.
Downstairs, the game room brings play into the mix—ping pong, foosball, board games, a retro arcade machine, another smart TV, and a second fireplace that adds cozy ambiance to rainy days or quiet nights in. It’s a space designed for connection, fun, and relaxed comfort.
Both levels feature mini split systems to keep the temperature just right—warm in the winter, cool in the summer, and always just the way you like it.
Guest Access:
You’ll have full private access to the chalet, the hot tub, grill, and patio seating. Parking is available right outside the door for two vehicles. Shared access is available to the water via two docks, as well as to kayaks, paddleboards, and swimming areas on Belgrade Stream. A smart lock makes check-in simple and secure.
The Neighborhood:
Located in a quiet lakeside neighborhood in Belgrade, Maine, the property offers a peaceful and private setting while still being just a short drive to Augusta, Belgrade Lakes Village, local restaurants, trails, and markets. The area is known for its natural beauty, wildlife, and laid-back atmosphere. Whether you’re exploring the lake or relaxing on the deck, you’ll be surrounded by nature at every turn.
Getting Around:
You’ll want a car to explore the surrounding area, with easy access to downtown Belgrade, Great Pond, and Augusta. Parking is available right next to the chalet, and most destinations are within a 15–25 minute drive. In the warmer months, you can launch kayaks or a paddleboard directly from the shore.
Other Things to Note:
• Private Hot Tub: Enjoy your own Jacuzzi hot tub located on your private upper-level deck. It’s available year-round and perfect for sipping your morning coffee or unwinding under the stars. The hot tub is not shared—it’s exclusively yours during your stay.
• Pontoon Boat Rental: A 22-foot pontoon boat is available to rent on-site (first come, first served). The cost is $399 per half day (8AM–12PM or 2PM–6PM) plus fuel. The boat is fully equipped with life jackets, a throw device, boarding ladder, first aid kit, and fire extinguisher. We’ll give you a complete safety and operation walkthrough before departure.
• Pet Policy: Pets are welcome with a $195 fee per stay. Please let us know ahead of time if you’re bringing one. We ask that pets are not allowed on furniture, and that guests clean up after them both indoors and outdoors to help keep the space beautiful for everyone.
• Ring Doorbell: There is a Ring doorbell camera mounted at the main house facing the shared driveway. It does not monitor guest spaces or the chalet.
• Fire Pit & Grill: A private gas grill and outdoor fire pit are available for your use. Firewood is not provided, so feel free to bring your own if you’d like to enjoy a campfire during your stay.
Interaction with Guests:
We give guests complete privacy but are always available by message if you need anything during your stay. Whether it’s local recommendations, help with the pontoon, or a quick answer to a question, we’re here to make your visit as smooth and enjoyable as possible.
