Location: Embden, Kennebec Valley (Central Maine), Maine, USA (Two Hours North of Portland)
Accommodations: Cabin, 4 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths (Sleeps 8-12)
Keywords: Cabin
This property is actually two adjoining cabins just 25 feet from beautiful Embden Pond. It is a great way to share a vacation with friends or family, maintain some privacy and avoid having to pay full price for two separate cabins. The cabins are connected by an adjoining door. The adults can share a dinner on the porch while the kids enjoy a movie in the other cabin. No smoking inside, but please feel free to smoke on the porch.
The cabins are mirror images of each other, but one cabin has a deck and the other has a great screened porch with sofa, chairs and a large picnic table. Each cabin has two bedrooms and a loft. The bedrooms have three double beds and one queen. The lofts have three double beds and a futon. Each cabin has a fully-equipped kitchen, living room and bathroom. Both cabins are comfortably furnished in traditional Maine camp decor - see photos in attached website link. Linens and towels are provided at no extra charge. See list of amenities below to save some packing time.
Embden Pond is a crystal clear, spring-fed pond- great for swimming. We have our own private swimming platform and there are also a common swimming dock and beach just a stone's throw from the cabins. We also share a playground with swings, slides, etc.
There are many opportunities for day hikes including waterfalls, amazing vistas and a nearby site where you can view 2,000 year-old petroglyphs. Moosehead Lake and the town of Greenville are only one hour away. There are several antique stores, restaurants and unique shops en route and in the town proper.
We highly recommend stopping at Spring Creek BBQ in Monson on this roadtrip for the best pulled pork sandwiches in New England. Do not miss Lakewood Theater, just a few miles from the cabins. Here you can step back over 100 years in time to enjoy dinner and a play or children's theater at America's oldest summer theater. There is also a golf course. Check links FMI on Lakewood's scheduled plays for this season.
