About this property

"Andy's Place"

A small year round Cottage on Beautiful Whetstone Pond with Majestic Russell Mountain emerging right from the shoreline across from you. Easy access to ATV and Snowmobile Trails. Great Summertime Fishing, sorry Whetstone is closed to Ice Fishing, but good Ice fishing just down the street.

About the host

Hosted by Paul Morin

Host profile image
Hi, I'm Paul, my wife Kelly and I have been happily married for 15 yrs. We are proud grandparents of some amazing grandchildren. I care-take multiple rental properties around this area, so when this one that a friend had owned became available, we jumped on it. My wife and I have been renovating it a bit this summer while using it, now it's time to share it with all of you. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do...

Why they chose this property

Whetstone Pond is quite possibly one of the nicest little ponds you will ever see. Majestic Russell Mountain rises right from the shore across from you. The sun will set right out in front of the screen porch. You'll listen to the Loons and this time of year, you'll get to see the leaves change. You won't find a better area than Northern Maine to enjoy the Foliage...

What makes this property unique

Year round access, to all of Maine's amenities, including Kayaking, fishing, hiking, snowmobiling, atv'ing, or anything else you can dream up.
