This cabin is very spacious and seems newly renovated. The view of the lake is spectacular for watching eagles and loons up close. The kayaking and fishing is lots of fun for young and old.

We loved our winter stay at the Squirrel's Nest! The wood stove and heat kept us quite cozy and the morning view of the sunrise over the frozen lake was unbeatable. Already thinking about a return trip!

The Great North Maine Woods

We really enjoyed our stay here. The cabin was very clean and comfortable. So much to do, from the lake to the north Maine woods. We saw lots of wild life and enjoyed hiking and riding the trails. We would definitely stay here again.

The camp was very well equipped and had plenty of bedroom space. It's location was quiet and scenic. The waterfront area worked well for fishing off the dock and accommodating our the kayak, paddle board and motor boat that we brought from home. This wonderful property made our week stay at the lake a very fun and a relaxing one!
Fishing off the dock was fun!

We loved staying at “The Squirrels Nest”. It was an old time feel but with all the amenities. Beautiful view from the front porch and plenty of room! Well stocked and so many games and movies available! Can’t wait to go back

Cozy cabin at a beautiful spot at the lake

The location was astonisching with a stunning view over the lake. The cabin was cozy, cleaned up and offered a lot of privacy. It is near Baxter State Park and Gulf Hagas. The cabin and its location was truly beyond our expactations. A good place to relax and perfect place to return to after a nice outdoorday.

Family Getaway

This trip was perfect from the cozy well-stocked cabin to the quiet area. We can’t say enough about this cabin on the lake, it was everything and more than we could have hoped for. Sherry was very accommodating and quick to respond when needed. We enjoyed kayaking and listening to the loons on the lake. We would love to return in the future.

Brothers’ Weekend Getaway

Rented this cabin for my husband and his 2 brothers to have a guys’ weekend. They loved the bedrooms and large living area. They fished off the shore, and played games at the large table, as it rained most of the weekend. They had a great time, and found it very relaxing. The host was very responsive and helpful. We are thinking of returning sometime for a couples’ weekend!
