Cabin was a great place for a nice romantic weekend get away. The proximity to the lake was an enjoyable backdrop to an exceptional stay. Jim the host was very accommodating, even offering hats and gloves. Property was just as advertised. Even though it was a 50 minute drive into Bar Harbor for whale watching and other activities, the drive was very scenic and made it go by much faster.

Jim's place was very relaxing and private. Very quiet location on a lake, with a nice drive through local blueberry fields. The cabin is right next to Jim's, but he kept to himself other than when we had needs. Cabin provides a basic, rustic experience, and the place is around a 30-40 minute drive to Acadia. Overall, the stay was very pleasant, and the host did very well at caring for our needs.

This was a great start to our trip to Maine. It was quiet and located on a beautiful pond. The A frame was rustic in a good way, providing anything we could need. The owner was very quick to respond to communications. This is a great stay!

Great place to relax and get away

Our stay here was fantastic. It was close enough to Acadia to spend 3 days there and then also had plenty of time to jus trelax and enjoy the lake. The boats/kayaks are a big plus for getting out on the water and we had a great stay overall!

Beautiful lakeside cabin that was the perfect launchpad for my partner and I's trips to Acadia. Around a 50 minute drive to the national park and Bar Harbor, which is reasonable if you decide to make day-trips. We packed the car for the days worth of activities, and returned to the cabin at nights, which was cozy and quiet. The cabin is an all-around great option for your Maine trip.

Beautiful quaint stay on the water

Jim was a great host and communicator during the booking process. The house was very private, well-stocked, and directly next to the water for swimming and other activities. The only slight negative is the location is a bit far if you plan to do multiple Acadia visits like us.

Hope to Come Back Soon!

We rented the cabin to be close to UMaine Orono for Parents' Weekend. We arrived at night and the cabin was cozy and welcoming. In the morning we had coffee on the dock watching the fog burn off of the pond. The home is definitely bare-bones, but accommodating and comfortable. The property manager was responsive to my questions and concerns during booking.

Lake George

The cabin was remote but not difficult to find. It was on Beautiful Lake George. It was pretty close to Acadia and Bar Harbor. The cabin was clean and cozy. We enjoyed our stay. The loons called frequently which was our reason to stay by the lake. Jim was very nice. He helped us out when we need anything. No TV but who needs one when you are in the wilderness.

Cute but rustic

The cabin was in a very pretty area and fairly convenient distance to either part of Acadia national park (45 min). Everything was clean and ready for us to use and the host was helpful and friendly. We were disappointed to find out after we had booked in the welcome information that the cabin had no potable water and that we needed to buy and bring water for cooking and drinking. The host provided one gallon jug, but we were hiking in Acadia national park and for the price it would have been good to know this beforehand as we may not have booked the property. For the cost of the rental it was disappointing to have this logistical issue, as we underestimated our needs and had to purchase additional water along the way. Also the cabin is quite close to another property. On the Saturday of our stay we were awoken early in the morning (around 6/630 AM) to a work crew removing old shingles on the next door property, cursing and talking loudly enough for every part of their conversation to be heard within our cabin. We were hoping for a quiet getaway prior to having our first child and this, though out of the control of the host, was a disappointing disruption to our vacation. Overall, although it is a cute cabin, the amenities and comfort of the furniture put it a little bit more in the rustic category than we expected with the price point.

I am very sorry that your stay was not a 5 star experience. As you noted, you were on notice that you would need to supply drinking water. I wish you had advised me of your concern prior to your arrival so we might have resolved the issue. As you also noted, the noise at the nearby property due to a roof replacement (caused by prior storm damage) was outside of our control. It was pleasure meeting you both and I hope the remainder of your trip was outstanding!

Beautiful A-Frame, w/Some Logistical Caveats

Overall the A-Frame was beautiful and I would stay again! A few things I wish I knew before booking or were more clear at time of booking: 1. there are 0 curtains on the windows or doors, and there are adjacent homes on either side. It's nice to have the peace of mind that comes with closing the curtains at night, so it made our stay a little uncomfortable. 2. The back sliding door to the lake does NOT lock - there is a piece of wood to "jamb" in the track, however, it's not cut to size and you can easily open it from either side - (we tested it). Not sure what the property owner was thinking here - but this also made the stay uncomfortable with the knowledge that at any point someone could easily come in. It would be great if the owner provided the key to actually lock it. 3. There is no drinking water, only pond water to shower and clean with. You must bring your own water to use to brush your teeth, etc. This didn't bother me, but I wasn't aware when I first booked this stay until my partner read the fine print after the booking was confirmed. Two gallons of spring water should be enough for 1 week's stay - not including any water bottles for drinking. Lastly, 4. There is no heat in the winter, only plug-in heaters. This also didn't bother me, but it should be noted for those considering booking here as this info wasn't clear to me in the Vrbo listing. I stayed here early October, and it was cold, but not bad when you layer up and turn on the heater.

Thanks for your detailed feedback! We had removed the curtains on the lakeside due to feedback that they were obstructing the view of the water and there is no cabin on that side of the property. There is also no cabin on the rear of the property. The lock on sliding door was broken by another visitor and we will be getting it repaired. The rental agreement stated that there guests were responsible for drinking water. We will now ensure there are at least 2 gallons of water when guests arrive. Glad you enjoyed your visit.

Maine vacation

We rented the cabin for a week and it was perfect for us. It's right on George's Pond. The scenery is spectacular. The cabin doesn't have a TV, which was very nice because we had to interact with each other. The cabin has everything else - comfy beds, full kitchen and bathroom, etc. The cabin is also located far enough away from touresty areas to be super peaceful, but close enough to drive to easily.

Loved the tranquility of Georges Pond along with the roomy kitchen/living space, well-equipped kitchen, nice deck and great outdoor furniture and fire pit! Our family really enjoyed our time there and at a reasonable price! Only negative is the 45 min drive to ANP.
