Idyllic & Restorative

The photos of this cabin and the property are gorgeous, and yet they somehow don't do it justice. It is so much more than you'll ever be able to infer from a few pictures, though I'm certain you'll want to take a few of your own. Out stay was incredible - from the little touches that make life off the grid a bit easier, to the amazing star gazing, to the wildlife and views - and before you ask, yes, there is a coffee pot (a french press)... two of them, actually. I would (and will) return her again and again for the experience and bonding time I had at Acorn Cabin with my kids. Thank you, David, for quite an indescribable family vacation my girls will never forget.

Cozy and beautiful and clean

We had a lovely stay at David’s cabin! The place was warm with a fire already going in the wood stove when we arrived; the kitchen was stocked with all the basics; every detail felt thoughtful. We explored the woods and went on lovely walks, enjoyed the stars and the quiet, and had a comfortable and cozy short stay over the holiday. David was communicative and kind and I hope to return someday!

Acorn Cabin

The Acorn Cabin was the perfect home base for all of the things we wanted to do and see in while in Maine! The cabin had everything we could have asked for, and David was really easy to communicate with. The attention to detail and craftsmanship make this a must stay if you are looking for something off grid!

Blueberry magic!

We had a wonderful weeklong stay at the Acorn Cabin. David has anticipated every need and made it incredibly comfortable, while off the grid and environmentally friendly. In addition to being able to relax and enjoy the fresh blueberries, the quiet, and the fresh air, we learned a lot about the building, the property, the surrounding area... and outhouse composting! The level of attention to detail is unlike any place I have every stayed and it felt like a luxurious getaway while out in the woods.

About the host

Hosted by David DesFosses

Hi there!
I moved to Maine about 20 years ago- with my newborn daughter- from NYC by way of Alaska, where I got a taste of real off-grid living. I'm an artist and a self employed builder by trade. Building the cabin was a passion project for me and continues to be as I make improvements and tweak things whenever I can so I can offer the best possible experience for my guests (and myself).

I hope you enjoy Acorn Cabin as much as I do!
