About this property

Prime waterfront spot on Moosehead Lake

THIS IS A SUNDAY TO SUNDAY RENTAL.

Our place is on the shore of Moosehead Lake across from Mt. Kineo. You’ll love this place because of the coziness and rustic feel. This camp is good for couples, solo adventurers, and families (with kids). Guests can use the grill, enjoy an outdoor fireplace and tie up a boat at the dock.

THE RENTAL IS FROM SUNDAY TO SUNDAY.

Guest safety is extremely important to us and our family. We are following CDC guidelines with respect to cleaning and disinfecting and offer a very private setting perfect for social distancing. We ask that if you have been exposed to the virus or are showing symptoms, to please contact us immediately so we can discuss cancelling your stay. We want you to feel safe and supported during this time.

We are so excited you have chosen to relax in a place we think is paradise on earth. Feel free to contact us if there is anything you need to know during your stay – Guy: 207-852-6435; Tracey: 207-852-7927. Medical Emergency – Dial 911 or visit CA Dean Memorial Hospital in Greenville: (207-695-5200)

Some basic house information:

The wood stove is for visual ambiance. It is currently not functional so please do not attempt to use it.

We recommend using bottled water for drinking and cooking. It is safe for teeth brushing and washing dishes.

There is a fire extinguisher hanging on the wall by the back porch. There is a first aid kit under the sink in the bathroom, along with Benadryl and acetaminophen. There are three smoke alarms in the house (one is a carbon monoxide detector). These are battery operated and should NEVER be tampered with.

Canoes/Kayaks – There are two canoes and two kayaks for you to use, located at the camp next door (kayaks by the camp, canoes down by the point). Life jackets and paddles will be located on the porch next door. It is imperative that you wear your life jackets at all times and use extreme caution and diligence when deciding to boat on this lake. If there are any white caps, we would not advise attempting to boat. This lake demands respect and caution.

Gas grill – You are welcome to use the gas grill for cooking. The fire pit out front is available to use however, you should bring your own fire wood.

You are welcome to use the point located on the adjacent property for swimming. Just a short walk down towards the public boat launch is a small beach for swimming and is more suited for young children. Just to the left of that beach is a private dock (WHITTEN) which you can use during your stay.

The heat pump on the wall is for heat and cold air. Slide the remote control face down for the controls. There is a fan in the back utility closet.

There is good wifi service and a smart TV. The password is provided at check in.

Things you might want to bring: fire wood, all food & drink, sunscreen, bug spray, camera, shampoo and toiletries.

There are plenty of coffee filters and sugar.

Most importantly, relax and enjoy the view!!

The cabin is located on a promontory or curve in this long, large lake. It is possessed of beautiful vistas, across the way Mt. Kineo towers over the water. The cabin itself is very cozy with its comfortable furniture and features knotty pine. It is perfectly quiet and one goes to sleep listening to the lake water.It could use a more thorough cleaning, and the non-stick pans should be replaced. Those are the only reasons I did not choose the 5 star rating.

Amazing Stay!

Our family of four had an amazing time! We had a very nice welcome from the hosts. The location on the lake was stunning…we enjoyed swimming right from the property and kayaking. The house was well equipped and very comfortable! We didn’t want to leave. The area has so much to offer…we hiked, went boating, ATVing, and mountain biking! We hope to come back again some day!

The location was fabulous. directly across Moosehead Lake from Mt. Kineo. The house was rustic, beds were comfortable and all appliances worked. We had a fire one night and could see the Milky Way in the dark sky.

Heaven on earth

The property was like being in heaven. The view was spectacular overlooking the lake with Mt Kineo in the distance. Tracey and Guy were excellent hosts, available for anything we needed. It felt like our souls were restored by God while we were there. We were so sad when we had to leave. Thank you Tracey and Guy for sharing your beautiful piece of heaven with us.

The perfect location!

We spent a week here in late August and it was the perfect family getaway in the perfect location! The location has a large grass lawn to play games in or layout in the sun. You can swim right off the point and/or launch your paddleboard or kayak. The best part is overlooking the gorgeous lake and Mount Kineo right across the way! With the firepit we would get a fire going and watch the sunlight setting against the rock face across the lake. We also walked to the small town beach and to the boat launch where you can ride the ferry to Mount Kineo State Park and golf course (though we don't golf). Overall a very quite, very private, and just perfect location for those looking to get away! The cabin itself had everything we would need including most kitchen supplies, which was nice. The kids slept in the upstairs loft which has twin beds, they liked being up there. We enjoyed the screened in porch and would sit there in the evenings and just listen to the lake sounds. Tracey and Guy were accommodating hosts and responded very promptly to my one question early in the week. We got to meet them on the final weekend and other than that we were left to our own, which was great! I would recommend this location to anyone wanting a prime lake front location, with or without kids, and just RELAX for a week!

Moosehead Tranquility

The cabin and its location were perfect. The first and last thing you see each day is Mt Kineo which was beautiful. We not only got to canoe to it, but took the ferry (in walking distance) to hike it. Everything needed for a week of rest and relaxation was provided at the cabin. Tracey and Guy thought of everything!

Fell in love with Mooshead Lake

We absolutely loved our vacation on Mooshead Lake, the camp was perfect for our family. It had everything we needed and is a perfect quite spot with amazing views. We enjoyed the beach and fire pit daily, and if you have a boat the lake is just phenomenal! My only complaint was that the camp needed a good cleaning, but luckily they had cleaning stuff/vacuum and we did so daily! We just fell in love with the lake and plan on vacationing on Mooshead yearly!

Lake living at its finest

We had a lovely week at this adorable lake house. The view of Mt. Kineo was spectacular! We loved hearing the loons at night and watching sunrises and sunsets across the lake. Nothing better than enjoying the view while having coffee on the screen porch in the mornings and campfires at night. The cottage was sparkling clean, and the hosts were super nice. They even offered for our kids to use some of their toys and helped us find a good spot to see moose (we saw 3!). It’s so convenient that this cottage is just steps to the Kineo ferry. Don’t miss the chance to hike there. It’s pretty special. We hope to be back to this region and to this lovely spot specifically. Thank you!

Lovely getaway

Tracey and Guy really have an amazing spot here! The property itself was perfect; on the water with a gorgeous view of Mt Kineo. It was sparkling clean! The kitchen had everything we needed. The bedrooms were lovely and outfitted with space heaters, which was an awesome feature given it was still quite chilly at night. We loved having a campfire each night. There were games and a TV. The owners were so friendly and accessible! I would highly recommend this cabin for anyone looking to enjoy a relaxed getaway!

Our Rockwood getaway

This camp is amazing. It's stocked with everything you need. It's also very clean and so cozy. We were able to see the sunrise/sunsets everyday that were breathtaking. We enjoyed the fire pit, we were able to canoe, hike Mt kineo. We also met the owners who were very nice and accommodating if we needed anything. We will be back again for a 3rd time next year. I would highly recommend this camp.

About the host

Hosted by Tracey Whitten

Host profile image
We have been in the hospitality business for almost 20 years and take what we do very seriously. We have a deep love for the area, the history and safety for our guests. Guy grew up on this property and is very well versed in all aspects of the lake and surrounding area.

What makes this property unique

This is where we go to unplug and rewind. The views and energy at this spot are very tranquil and relaxing. If you are looking for action, this is not the place. If you are looking to relax, read a book, hike Kineo, boat, sun bath, enjoy good food and family time, this is the perfect spot. Nighttime views are amazing with endless stars.
