Now my kids bring their kids and we all rent cabins and have the best family vacation ever. No wifi, no tv, just quality family fun, boating, swimming, campfires, cookouts, game nights, fishing and spending quality time together young and old. Thanks To the Potter family for keeping Westwood Cottages that special place where fond memories are cherished for generations.""Beautiful place to stay. Clean cottages with all amenities. I love visiting in the fall, the scenery is just breathtaking. My favorite..... campfires at night with great friends. Lots of laughs and good times. I rate this place as top notch, would highly recommend.""Westwood Cottages is one of the most relaxing places you will find. We have been coming to these cottages since our kids were first born, and we are still returning with young adults. The open area in front of the cabins is great for kids, terrific fishing, boating. We have met and remained friends with several families over the years!"Our HistoryWestwood Cottages is owned and operated by family. Westwood Cottages is a third generation and family tradition. The cabins were started by Fernando and Gladys Potter in 1950 with the help of their son, Fred. They started building one cottage at a time starting with the small cottage called the Honeymoon Cottage, which was expanded several years later. Over the years a total of 10 cottages were built, all with a beautiful lake view. In the early 90's, Fred and his wife Jean continued the tradition by getting to know families that have returned over the years and have become good friends. Now, Jean and Fred's son, Jamie and his wife Sarahjo continue the tradition, greeting old friends and continuing to make new ones. Vacationing at Westwood Cottages has become a summer tradition for several generations of many families continuing to make memories year after year at their Maine lakefront cottage rental choice. Join our friends and family for a Maine vacation that you will want to return to year after year, generation after generation. We can't wait to meet you.
