About this property

Take a Rest at Pine Point

Welcome to Pine Point located in central Maine on 3.5 virgin forest acres. While being conveniently located less than two miles from town, the property is very secluded on it's 800' of private lake frontage. This newly decorated 100 year old cottage contains many modern conveniences while maintaining it's original rustic charm. Upstairs you'll find a large bedroom with a king sized bed, and a pullout twin trundle . The first floor contains a well equipped kitchen, living room, dining room and large wraparound screened in porch with a full sized Murphy bed and an alcove with a twin bed.

Pine Point is about the most peaceful place on the planet. The Lake is quiet with few motor boats. It looks onto Mt. Katahdin from the front campfire area and back deck. The other side faces a calm cove that is home to bald eagles. Fish from the shore or take a peaceful ride on the paddleboat. Enjoy a book in a hammock or build a campfire in the new firepit.

Loons will lull you to sleep with their haunting calls. Maybe it's the rhythm of water pushing against rocks that will be the last thing you hear before nodding off. Wake to the early morning sunrises or sleep until noon.
Star filled nights end days that are visited by song birds, osprey and even soaring bald eagles.

Restore your spirit by spending the day at camp. Or enjoy all that Vacationland has to offer, from hiking Mt. Katahdin to visiting the rocky coast of Maine.

Perfect Maine Camp Getaway
This historic camp, located right on the edge of beautiful Mattanawcook Pond, has been updated and improved to include all of today's conveniences. Despite feeling private and serene, it is very close to goods and services. The hosts were very helpful in making arrangements for our stay and sharing their enthusiasm for this lovely spot.

Absolutely amazing
This property is a little piece of heaven. Beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Everything available that anyone could ever need. We would definitely book again in a heartbeat. It’s close enough to town but far away from any and all noises. Perfect silence. Do not hesitate to rent this cottage.

Diamond in the rough
Our stay was absolutely perfect. The location was the best, serene and beautiful, picture perfect! Great wildlife, sunrises, and sunsets. The owners were extremely thoughtful and mindful of all the necessities needed, literally, for a vacation on the lake for anyone traveling from another location. The only thing we had to pickup at the grocery store was food and drinks. The grocery store and downtown was close, yet far enough away that the only thing you heard were the sounds of the water, loons, and other wildlife. I just cannot say enough, there isn’t enough room and we want to make sure it’s not booked up next summer. We would definitely love to come back! Thank you so much!

Definition of Tak-A-Rest
A slice of heaven here on earth! We could not have picked a better place to celebrate our 33rd wedding anniversary. Linda and Paul are gracious and more than accommodating hosts. A thoughtful and generous welcome package, providing a VCR so we could watch our wedding video and a beautiful cabin on the water stocked with everything you could possibly need. The peace and quiet, the beauty of the surroundings and the calling of the loons will be something be for the memory books! Thank you Paul and Linda for sharing this!

About the host

Hosted by Linda & Paul

Host profile image
Owning Pine Point cabin is a dream come true. My husband, Paul and I have lived in Maine all our lives and have always dreamed of having a secluded historic cottage on a lake. We lived 40 years on the coast of Maine near Pine Point Beach. Early in our marriage we were caretakers for a cabin on Moosehead Lake called "Tak-A-Rest". For a dollar a year and lots of sweat equity we received much needed respite and made some happy family memories. Pine Point cabin had been in the same family since 1942 and has quite a history. I fell in love with it two years before we purchased it, but never thought it could become a reality. Paul & I purchased the property on our 39th wedding anniversary. We have renamed the cottage "Tak-A-Rest" at Pine Point. We believe it is a blessing from God and will honor his gift by sharing the peace that this property brings to restore others. Paul's grandfather emigrated from Russia in 1918. We wish to honor him by donating 10% of the rent to a Christian ministry to the people of Russia. "The Birches" painting in the cottage was painted by a ten year old Russian child who benefitted from an Art Project through this ministry.
