Cabin Review Summary

The cabin was very well maintained. The cleanliness was great. The property owner was very attentive. We were one house off when we arrived and Mike the property owner arrived at the cabin to make sure it was unlocked for us. Very well done Thank you very much and God Bless!

Relaxation with a view.

Great little cabin that takes you back in time with countless vintage accents. We had a great time staying here. Kids braved the cold water and jumped off the rock dock. Loved the wood stove at night. Very quiet and peaceful. Thanks.

Charming rustic cabin in the woods, right on the lake.

Incredible location right on the lake. Listing and photos do not do it justice. Loved our 3 night stay here. Sunny early Fall weather meant we could swim in the lake, canoe and kayak with supplied boats (inc lifejackets if needed). Good sized wooded garden leading down to lake. Cabin was a good size and charmingly rustic, queen bed a little soft and lumpy and sofa also a little old, but didn’t detract from a well kitted out cabin in the woods, wood burning stove for chilly evenings and roasting smores on the fire pit outside, beautiful sunrises l, loved the private “island” rock to sunbathe on and easy access to Acadia National Park, would definitely recommend.

Gorgeous Property, Responsive Host, Could Be Cleaner

This property was absolutely gorgeous, tucked away but not too hard to find, the lake was lovely and the deck was just magical. The house is dated but cute, comfortable fit for the 4 of us. The check-in process was a bit confusing because there weren't any instructions and, when we arrived, the property manager was inside the house. The property manager was very friendly and responsive, especially when we lost power in a storm. He came by quickly to bring us firewood for the wood stove and to hook up a generator for us which we really appreciated. Our only complaint was that the house was not well-cleaned. Most of the surfaces were sticky, many of the dishes were poorly washed or in poor condition, some surfaces were dusty. There were odd items left around including a used toothbrush in the bathroom and a pot of baked beans left in the fridge. That being said, the beds were clean and comfortable and we did enjoy our stay!

Amazing Quiet

This is a great place to spend extra time around a visit to Acadia. We have never been anywhere that was so quiet. Amenities were fine, although the double bed mattress has enjoyed better days. The deck out on the lake is fabulous. Lots of comfortable lawn chairs.
