Bucksport is a small town in Downeast Maine. The lakehouse is conveniently located within 15 minutes of shopping centers like Walmart in Brewer and Bangor and less than an hour day trip to Bar Harbor, Mount Desert Island, Maine's Acadia National Park, and the rest of Downeast Maine. About 25 minutes to Bangor International Airport.

You'll want a car to explore any surrounding areas, but you also would have all you need to enjoy a week right at the house. This area of Maine does not have consistent rideshare service. If you need help with coordinating transportation, let me know ahead of time.

Eddie was an excellent host with great communication from the time of booking through the time we checked out. Since I moved an hour away from my family, I decided to book this property so we could meet in the middle for Thanksgiving dinner. Not know exactly what would be available in terms of pots and pans, etc.I practically packed up my entire kitchen, but there was absolutely nothing that I needed. The cottage was well-equiped, as well as clean and cozy with a beautiful view of the pond.

Eddie was a great host and very responsive to any messages or questions we had. The property is beautiful and wish we could have enjoyed more of the outdoor things at the cabin but weather played a factor there, but definitely had a blast exploring the surrounding towns and Acadia. Great central location to many great restaurants and breweries within 15-20 minutes. The cabin was clean and well stocked, nice added personal touches and loved the jetted tub to relax at the end of the day. Beds comfortable and we rested well. Loved the fans that were available in the rooms for some white noise. There are multiple entrances so if you do have trouble with stairs you can get to lower level…but dining is on the main floor and will require stairs or you to walk outside. The water pressure was great and no issues to report. Thanks for sharing the property with us and for your hospitality. Property was listed well and photos weee accurate. Book it, Maine is beautiful, Eddie is a great host and the property has all you need to relax.

Beautiful Lakeside Property

We enjoyed our stay at this lovely property on the lake. The property had a nice firepit where we enjoyed smores and the evening stars. We also enjoyed using the kayak and canoe for a paddle around the lake. I only wish the property was set back off the road a bit due to noise from nearby traffic. Otherwise it is a beautiful spot.
