Great Place

The house was wonderful and the view is great. It is centrally located for the places that we wanted to visit, Bangor, Ellsworth, Belfast, Arcadia, etc. We had a wonderful visit and the host is wonderful and answers you back very quickly. I would definitely stay again.

Spring Break in Maine

This house was perfect for our family spring break trip (dog included). The host was super communicative and extremely helpful in recommending places to eat in the off season. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!

The dock was my family’s most enjoyable feature of the lake house. We would tube, canoe, kayak, and paddle board until the sun started to set. Thank you for the memories!

Family weekend

We stayed here with our 1.5 year old and dog for a summer weekend. The location was good for visits to Acadia and Bar Harbor. The property was very spacious and private for our family. The place was well stocked with baby gear. We felt like the water access was overstated on the listing, it is across the street and down an overgrown path to a small dock between two backyard properties. We were expecting more of a private accessible area based on the listing. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Great Spot

Just got back from one week here. Really nice and comfortable house (and well quipped) in a great location if you want to be away from the crowds. Had a lot of fun on the lake, hiking the property, and day trips to Acadia. Acadia took us about an hour or so to get to, but well worth staying here- it’s a beautiful drive anyway. I think our dogs had more fun then we did- the property is perfect for dogs. Thank you and hope to be back!!

Amazing!

Our stay was too short, but very sweet. The house is a bit from Arcadia National Park, if that's your destination, but it was still worth it. The house is very clean and well equipped. The highlight is the lake! Great for kayaking and fishing. The road is a little close to the house and the hiking trail isn't well maintained, otherwise super stay!!

Nice secluded area!

The communication was great once we were there. Poor communication leading up to our arrival. The dock and lake are across the street, not on the property. We were there to hike in Acadia and visit Bar Harbor. Both were about an hour away.

A wonderful Oasis!!

Our family had a wonderful stay! The house was beautiful, clean and comfortable! The owner provides a lot of the things that make it feel like home and is quick to answer any and all questions. Being that we have young children, it can be difficult to remember everything, but the owner provided a lots of the things you need for little. We were so thankful to have found such an amazing house. Thank you for sharing your home with our family.

Wonderful getaway on Long Pond

We were overjoyed with the property - it was exactly as described on the Vrbo website and scrupulously clean. We loved the proximity to the lake and all the wonderful amenities at the dock area - paddleboat, paddleboard, kayaks, paddles, lifejackets, seating, waste receptacles! It was amazing and the lake was not crowded. We visited Fort Knox nearby and spent great times in Bangor, Acadia National Park, and Bar Harbor. We were so happy to bring our dog with us and she was welcomed almost everywhere. We were very happy with our choice of rental home.

Maine Getaway

This was the perfect Maine getaway that my family and I were hoping for. We visited Arcadia National Park and did several hikes and sight seeing activities. On our rainy day, we visited Bangor where we did an escape room adventure followed by a wonderful dinner together at the Timber Kitchen and Bar. Thank you Chauncey for being such a wonderful and thoughtful host. We enjoyed our stay and made some new family memories. PS, For the cheesecake lovers out there, a little detour out to MoMo’s cheesecake in Ellsworth… totally worth it!!!

could not say more about our experience

The owners of this rental in Bucksport, although new with minimal reviews, were very respondent to any questions" emails" that I had sent. I need to say that my questions were few. The premises is tastefully decorated with all the amenities that a family would expect. I am highly recommending this rental for this region of Maine. Jeff ( vacationer from CT)

Escape Maine in Maine

The house is lovely with lots of room for everyone. The lake is enormous and private and we really enjoyed paddling the kayaks and paddle boards. Both the lake area and the property have great amenities, like sunscreen by the lake and a washer and dryer. We hiked the trail by the house and got to check out gorgeous forest scenery and scare a few innocent spiders. This was our best friend anniversary vacation and the house was perfectly situated near a bunch of cool stuff without the crowds. We visited Bar Harbor and Bangor and the crazy antique shop off the highway covered in skeletons and enjoyed every minute. Stopped into the observatory and Fort Knox on the way out of town. A+++++

Cozy cabin in the woods.

We enjoyed our stay in the Cabin, loved the kitchen it was beautiful. We experienced a power outage while we were there (caused by a car wreck on the highway). I highly recommend adding some candles and flashlights to the property for situations like this. (we used the phone flashlight until they went dead). Thank you for allowing us to rent your cabin, we will use again if in the area. Sorry we didn't sign your guest book, with the power outage we had a lot to do in a short time having to get ready, and pack in the morning.
