Birthday Celebration/ Family Weekend
Our family rented this house for 4 or 5 summers 15+ years ago. When I saw it on VRBO, I decided that I wanted my whole family to gather there to celebrate my 75th birthday and to reminisce about our previous vacations there. We were not disappointed. There were 23 of us for 3 nights. We all fit comfortably. The renovations to the kitchen and bathrooms were a big improvement! The addition of bunk beds to the bedrooms was a plus. Even though it rained most of the weekend, the teenagers still swam in the lake. The house is spacious enough that there were lots of spaces for everyone to be comfortable. This place is a little piece of heaven!

Great for a large group
We stayed here for a joint bachelor/bachelorette party with a group of 18 of us. We weren’t sure about the bedroom situation because it wasn’t totally clear each was pictured, but all 6 bedrooms are essentially identical, the only difference is two of the bedrooms have a single bed in addition to the queen and the other four have a bunk bed. The en suite for each bedroom is also the same. We didn’t find issues with hot water/water pressure for such a large group either. The house was perfect for our group gathering and they had tons and tons of kitchen items, plenty for everyone to use. The views are beautiful and we had a great time on the lake. Would highly recommend for other group gatherings. Our only small complaint is that there are two seating areas, so it wasn’t easily possible for everyone to hang out indoors together. That was okay because we were mostly outside but in bad or colder weather, it would be nice to have an arm chair or two for a little more comfy indoor seating.

The best weekend on Sebago Lake!
We hosted my sister’s bachelorette party for the weekend here and we can’t thank James and M enough - their home was perfect for our group and right on the lake. There was plenty of space both indoors and outdoors, the kitchen was well equipped and the house was perfect. We can’t wait to come back again soon.

Unbelievable Bachelorette Weekend
Words cannot describe the property and experience we had here on Sebago Lake. The location is a slice of paradise, just steps from a sandy beach and a scenic view of the lake from the deck. The owners were exceptional at accommodations and coordinating local food, liquor and flower vendors; working closely with my sister to plan the entire weekend. Flexible with early check in to allow for set up prior to my arrival and even some live music at sunset on our last evening. I only have spectacular things to say about our stay here and have shared the listing with everyone I know looking for a large friend or family group vacation. You cannot beat 7 bathrooms! Looking forward to the next time we can stay here! Sarah

Why they chose this property

From the moment we saw Shiloh Villa we new it was special - warm and sun drenched and steps from pristine Sebago Lake. We could smell the sweet memories of families and friends summering together that had infused the property with a palpable love. Immediately it gave us a sense of "being home". Now at Shiloh Vila, that is the welcoming feeling we offer our guests as their "home a way from home."

What makes this property unique

Gorgeous interior balcony design with six suites all boasting full private baths. Enormous pocket windows allow gentle sunlit breezes from the lake to keep the entire space cool. Or sit on the great outdoor elevated deck just steps from the sandy shoreline. All in the heart of one of Sebago Lakes best communities. Shiloh Villa is close to great hiking, kayaking, fishing, wineries, tennis courts, golf, shopping, restaurants, boat/jetski rentals, snow skiing, festivals, fairs and many local attractions. Nestled in a quiet bedroom community, Shiloh Villa is equipped with a 2 private moorings for boaters, private catering and/or spa treatments by appointment, only.

Shiloh is on a beautiful 318' shared beach. Less than a 5 minute walk from several boat rentals, and only a mile from jet ski rentals. Guests can walk to Krista's Four Seasons for delicious hot meals or order sandwiches or walk to Richards to get yummy Gifford's ice cream, Krista's Four Seasons for a great breakfast, Jordan's for groceries and deli (Hannaford, Reny's, Home Depot, Walmart and Eagle Sushi and much more are just minutes away ).The Elementary school is also a 5 minute walk with big soccer fields, baseball diamonds, tennis courts and play structures, only steps from our local Emergence Medical Services.
