The cabin views are beautiful, and the location is private, but close to a grocery store and town. I slept so well in the clean and cute cabin. The hosts were so helpful and attentive, too. I hope to return!

Overall it was a fantastic stay! The hosts were great and very responsive to anything I needed. The access to the lake is a little challenging but it is also very doable for the little ones. Plenty of frogs and fish were caught. And an added bonus is, you get to sit on the porch and watch the busy humming birds feed right in front of you. I would recommend this place to others and I will do my best to make another trip up to Dexter Pond again! Thank you for sharing your home with my family! It was loved by all.

Serene cabin on the pond. Enjoyed watching the hummingbirds on the 2 feeders on the property. The pond is great for bass fishing. Hosts are very nice and responsive. Nice little getaway. Cabin was stocked with the essentials which was nice. Beautiful covered porch to drink your coffee and enjoy the view. Everything was very comfy and cozy. We didn't use the loft so I can't speak to that. We hope to go back again, really enjoyed our time there.

The cottage is wonderful! It had everything we needed and was extremely clean. The hosts were very nice and accommodating. Because of a family issue, we had to delay our arrival by one day. It was an issue that couldn’t be helped and we didn’t expect any kind of refund. To our surprise and delight they offered to extend our original departure by a day. This was so appreciated because we went to the area to spend time with our grandchildren and getting the day on the other end was wonderful. The owners didn’t need to do that but it shows they are kind, loving people and we thank them.

This is an amazing property. We stayed for 3 nights, right on Dexter pond. Cabin is quaint and beautiful. Lovely stay and highly recommend for a weekend getaway. We fished, had an outdoor fire. Visited a couple of local restaurants. The cabin was fully stocked as noted in the description. Very comfortable and we will definitely return.

Lou-Anne & Rick are very kind, thoughtful and attentive hosts. Dexter’s pond and cabin is very clean, cozy and beautiful, being there gives you a deep sense of tranquility. My husband and I spent our 14 year wedding anniversary here and we just can’t say enough about it! It was a wonderful getaway we will not forget! We will definitely come back!

We had a wonderful stay at this cabin. It has a porch overlooking the pond, a fire pit, outside table and chairs, and kayaks you can use. The full size frig and grill are practical, and the comfortable bed and living room chairs appreciated. It is nice and quiet here and the sound of the loons on the water really make you feel like you are away on vacation. The landlords are nearby and very helpful.

Cutest Cozy Cabin

This place was absolutely amazing! I needed a quiet place to write and just chill, and this cabin was perfect for that. The view of the waterfront was incredible, especially for watching the sunset. And the inside was so cozy and cute. I would definitely recommend this place if you're looking for a nice, quiet getaway.

My dream come true

Cozy, private, comfortable, picturesque cabin with everything we needed. Great kitchen with coffee. Comfy porch and outdoor seating. We appreciated use of kayaks and canoe and the ability to paddle from one pond to another. Thank you for sharing this lovely place.

What a wonderful, peaceful stay! The cabin was perfect, well thought out amenities, comfortable, clean, and loved hearing the loons calling. We brought our own Keurig coffee maker as my Client preferred ut. But the coffee/tea station was lovely!We stayed a whole week and when we weren't gathering for activities elsewhere we enjoyed sitting on the porch or Adirondack chairs by the pond.

Magical Place

Lovely cabin with nice touches. Clean and comfortable with little surprises everywhere. Located on a quiet road with a beautiful view of Dexter Pond. Upon arrival I was greeted with a loon call, and it was awesome! Kayaks were provided and I ventured off on the pond and it was amazing! Highly recommend this place.

Awesome cabin on Dexter Pond! Rick and LouAnne were terrific hosts! We loved drinking coffee on porch overlooking the pond, watching sunset and kayaking. Saw family of loons and bald eagle on the large pond. Classic Maine cabin! Not big but comfortable. Hosts were very responsive if we had any questions. Make sure to try their farm fresh eggs and honey!! Hope to visit again!!
