Great place to relax and unwind

Clean, well appointed, gorgeous setting. We loved the view, the coziness and the privacy. The starlings, corn and wind all made it perfectly atmospheric. It was the perfect backdrop for a writing retreat!

Peaceful oasis

The pictures don’t do justice to this fabulous cabin. The views are expansive and beautiful. Comfortable beds and furniture. The kitchen is well-kitted out with all you need to cook. Communication with the owners was easy and they were very responsive. We even enjoyed a hotdog roast over the delightful outdoor fire ring. We would stay again in a heartbeat!

An awesome cabin with lots of thoughtful design and decor

My wife and I got away to Paul’s cabin for a couple of days before new year. We needed a quiet break and this cabin was perfect. Restaurants nearby but plenty of privacy. The decor was perfect and the design of the cabin was well thought out. We can’t wait to come back in the summer to do some hiking and spend more than just a couple of days. Paul was great as a host and communicated well. 5 stars!

Winter Fun

Our family stayed here for a ski getaway at Big Rock in Mars Hill. The property is on the back side of the mountain, just minutes from the ski area. As convenient and close as the location is to Mars Hill and local amenities, it felt like it was a world away from everything. We enjoyed snowshoeing and tobogganing behind the cabin. The house itself was cozy and compact but comfortable and warm for our family of 5. We loved it.

Clean and cozy with a very well stocked kitchen and excellent views. A number of small details made this cabin homey and convenient, like lots of places to hang wet towels, board games, and a plethora of throw blankets for snuggling on the couch after a cold day of skiing. An easy 10 minute drive from Bigrock Mountain with hosts who were very responsive. And did I mention a well stocked kitchen?? Our favorite rental to date (and there have been lots). A person couldn’t possibly be disappointed with this rental.

This lovely cabin was absolutely perfect and exactly as described. It's near a few other small buildings/cabins but they are situated to provide almost complete privacy. The view is spectacular and Paul and Carla provided so many small touches, from a full load of wood for the fire pit to anything you could need in the kitchen. If you're visiting Maine's beautiful northern border region, this is a terrific location, within 1.5 hour to the northernmost areas like Madawaska/Edmundston and 1 hour to Grand Falls NB Canada. I'll definitely be returning!

Peaceful and beautiful

Everything about the cabin was perfect! Peaceful, beautiful, we loved everything. Unfortunately, the weather did not cooperate so we were not able to explore the area as much as we would've liked but we are actually kinda glad because that will give a reason to go back again and enjoy this beautiful piece of heaven. Thank you!!

Perfect Getaway

I was overly happy with our stay here. The place was cute, clean, peaceful, and had everything we needed for the few nights we spent here. Pulling up it seemed a lot smaller than I had pictured, but once we were inside it was absolutely perfect. Hot water worked great, beds were comfy, and the smell of the wood interior is a great attribute. The sunrises over the mountains was the cherry on the sundae. Thank you to the hosts for a pleasant experience.

A very nice cabin off a country/mountain road. The quiet secluded nature of this cabin is what we enjoyed the most. We would stay there again and would recommend this property to anyone.
