Om overnatningsstedet

Vores to-etagers, fire-værelses (to-og-en-halv bad) bjælkehytte har en smuk udsigt over Round Pond, en stor fordækket for lounging og spisning, en sidedækket til at grille, og en dock til svømning og lancering af kano.

Det er stille og fredeligt, med ingen TV-forbindelse (selvom vi har Wi-Fi) og masser af plads til at udforske.

Ovenpå: Det store soveværelse har en king-size seng, og den loftede soveværelse (over stuen) har to enkeltsenge. Der er også en fuld og en halv bad.

Nedenunder: Stue, køkken og spiseplads er alle i ét åbent rum, med spiseplads modregne til den ene side med optimale udsigt til solnedgangen. Der er to soveværelser nedenunder: et med en queensize seng, og et med to enkeltsenge. Der er også en fuld bad. Kabinen er indrettet som et hjem; bedes behandle det som sådan. Hvis du sætter pris på håndlavede møbler, velkommen! (Hvis du søger en rå-og-tumble erfaring, vil du blive glad andre steder.)

Vi har et tv med dvd-spillekort kapaciteter, men har ikke helt fundet et godt sted at sætte det, så for øjeblikket det sidder slags akavet på et bord i stuen - velkommen til omarrangere, hvis du gerne vil .

Kano og svømme legetøj er i kælderen!

peaceful & private (but take note...)

This cabin is a find. You basically have a private pond to swim & paddle, with 2 spacious decks for gathering and relaxing. Inside is lovely. The main floor living area is more spacious than we were expecting, and the 4 bedrooms (3+loft) were perfect to accommodate our 3 generation group. Finding this lakefront, w/4 bedrooms, 2.5 bath (+ outdoor shower!) felt like a real score. We were all very happy and comfortable during our stay. Elizabeth is very communicative. She was quick to respond to all inquiries, and also provided lots of useful details and extra info. This continued all the way up to our stay and was really helpful. She obviously cares deeply about the quality of the cabin & its furnishings. However, Elizabeth is also very particular and her expectations exceed common standards. I say this as someone who has frequently rented other vacation homes without issue, and rented out my own home as well. We are respectful and careful guests, always leaving rentals in excellent condition. But, while most of our interactions were helpful and friendly, we also had some tension around a few issues. Do not expect any grace or wiggle room related to rules, and do report anything that could potentially be assessed as damage the instant you discover it. Understand that her concept of "normal wear & tear" may not match yours. And note: you must take with you at checkout any trash accumulated after the last pickup (which is totally inconvenient, kinda gross, and a little odd).

Lovely cabin in peaceful Pretty Marsh

My mom and I stayed in this cabin during our Maine vacation and I would recommend it to anybody who wants a peaceful escape to a wooded place near Acadia National Park. The cabin itself was clean, with good appliances, and plenty of dishes, napkins and utensils. The best part about it is the location in the woods along the lake in Pretty Marsh. I would stay here again if I could.

Private Lovely Log Cabin on a Lake

This lovely house is built entirely of wood -- inside and out. It is located on Round Pond, a clean and clear lake. We did not see any other people or boats on the lake during our entire stay -- complete privacy. We spent hours sitting on the elevated deck looking over the lake through beautiful pine trees. The grounds were beautiful. Every night we watched the sun set over the lake. The large oval dining table with matching chairs provided plenty of room for 8 people. The kitchen was well furnished with utensils, equipment and pans. The host provided very nice linens and many absorbent towels. Although there was no A/C there were several fans -- enough for every bedroom. We appreciated the ease of using the kayaks. The lake was perfect for swimming. Several naps were taken in the large comfortable hammock. Also having a kayak and paddle board rental facility so close to the cabin was great when we wanted to take an excursion on nearby Long Pond. The cabin is perfect for 6 adults and 2 children/teenages. We created many great memories during our stay here.

BEWARE OF OWNER!

BEWARE! The owner is not honest, she is very difficult & she tried to intimidate & scam us! Ms. Fox asked us to sign a contract she had drawn up 24 hours before our arrival without any previous notification of the need to sign a contract. Among the clauses in the contract is the requirement to notify her within 24 hours of any damage to the house. Ms. Fox called us within 12 hours of arriving expecting a full report on “how things were”. We had not noticed anything in the short time we had been in the house. Over the next week we noticed things which we considered normal to “wear-&-tear”. Not wanting to be annoying tenants, we took care of them ourselves or ignored them without complaining, such as: 1) Shades with draw strings that were frayed; 2) A very difficult main door lock; 3) Scrapes on the hardwood floors; 4) Very dirty kitchen cabinets full of food left by former guests; 5) Dried fruit loop cereal in the couch creases & toenail clippings on the living room rug; 6) Lots of dust bunnies under all beds; 7) Refrigerator leftovers from previous guests; and 8) A trash can full of garbage upon arrival. We arrived home to find emails from Ms. Fox accusing us of damaging a $2000 Thomas Moser stool in her kitchen; photos showed a small (estimate 1/2 inch) chip on the bottom of one of the legs. We explained that no one from our family dropped or had any kind of “accident” with the stool. In her response, Ms. Fox implied that we were lying & that someone in our family "must have kicked it with hiking boots on". We explained how we treated her house with care/respect as if it were our own and, as a result, at no time did anybody wear shoes inside. We received a link for the Thomas Moser store. Ms. Fox expects you to leave the house as you found it – essentially professionally cleaned - and we explained that the napkin she accused us of taking from the kitchen was probably tucked away with ALL the sheets & towels we laundered! Ms. Fox persistently misconstrued our visit/treatment of her house in nasty emails with false statements. We worked hard to leave the house clean & she stated we left it “excessively dirty.” I also deadheaded & watered her petunias at her request & she falsely claimed that I killed them! We are not the only family to receive such treatment; read the review that Lynn G. left in July 2016. If you stay, do a full inspection & take photos of every single piece of furniture inside/out & anything u plan to use: protect yourself!

Had an awesome time on MDI!

My family stayed here a week with another family and the house is fantastic. We loved being on the lake and having it to ourselves. The kids fished off the dock every day and we all used the kayaks. The location is great, you’re really not far from anything. We explored a lot of the island and found the Bar Harbor and Acadia area to be very busy, so we were happy to be in a bit more secluded area. There are plenty of hiking trails and water access right near the cottage. Elizabeth was a fantastic host, very responsive to questions and offered many suggestions on what to do. The house had everything we needed and more. I wish I was sitting on that back deck with my coffee right now!

Oasis during a heatwave

The photos can not do this wonderful cabin justice. It is a true log cabin, nestled in the woods by a large pond. The rooms are spacious and well laid out. The loft bedroom is plenty big for 2 adults, and the three other bedrooms are also spacious and delightful. No AC, but the windows are well placed for cross ventilation and, because it is nestled in the woods and by a pond, it was 10 degrees cooler than the rest of Acadia, even on the hottest heatwave days. Plus you can swim in the pond to cool off. We bought some floats at the hardware store in town and had a GREAT time! The main living are is also wonderfully laid out, and the porches delightful. Kitchen had all we needed for a house full of cooks. A+++++

Lovely rustic cabin for those looking to escape the city

We had a wonderful time staying at Elizabeth's cabin and would gladly return for another stay! She provided clear and active communication before our stay, including recommendations for places to get groceries and other supplies. Her home was just what we were looking for -- a no-frills cabin with ample space for me and my husband, our 1y daughter, and our parents. The house was situated on a gorgeous lake, where we basically saw no one else for the entire 9-day stay. The kitchen, while a little tight, was outfitted with all the supplies we needed to cook the entire time we were there. There was also a small charcoal grill, which we put to good work! The cabin was an easy drive to Acadia National Park, where we were able to take some Covid-friendly hikes, and Bar Harbor, where we grabbed lobster rolls to go. The one issue to be aware of is that the internet connection was unreliable and neither my husband nor I had cell service (Verizon and Google Fi), so if you need to be doing work or taking important calls, this may not be the right fit.

terrific log cabin in great location

This is a lovely rustic log cabin by a virtually private pond. The main area -- living room, kitchen, dining room -- has a terrific feel, with vaulted living room ceiling and excellent pond view from the dining room table. The outside porch, also looking out to the pond, is a great spot to work or just relax. Pond was terrific for kayaking and swimming. Location terrific for MDI activities. Only caveat is it could use a bit of sprucing up -- front door unlocks only with some effort, door to washer/dryer area needs fixing, a few other things like that. But overall it's really a hidden away gem! Owner was very communicative.

The true feeling of Maine

We first stayed at this beautiful log house last year, and we enjoyed it so much we returned this summer. The house is lovely and comfortable; surrounded by trees and overlooking Round Pond, it has plenty of space for relaxation and quiet contemplation, but it's also a great place for cooking and sharing meals, conversation, inhaling the pine-scented air, enjoying the cool breezes off the pond, and listening to the loons. Bar Harbor is a 15-minute drive away, along with the more popular trails in Acadia, but if you prefer to avoid the crowds the trails on the quiet side of the island are excellent and much less frequented. Elizabeth, the owner, is very responsive and called the second day of our stay to make sure we had everything we needed. A quintessential Maine experience!

What a gem!

What a wonderful vacation spot! The house is both beautiful and comfortable and sits on its own small lake. There is a large deck overlooking the lake and another on the back of the house. We did lots of cooking, eating, swimming, reading, hanging out at the house and lots of hiking, kayaking, bicycling away from the house. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and all 5 of us wanted to stay longer! We are definitely looking forward to coming back!! Thanks, Elizabeth.

True Retreat Gem

My husband and I spent two weeks at this cabin. It is a log cabin with all amenities of a four bedroom home. Very spacious and comfortable, surrounded by old trees on a bank of a secluded pond. When not in the national park, we spent our days on a front porch overlooking sunset sparkles at a water surface. The porch had just the right amount of sun/shade and there was a very slight breeze ensuring a mosquito-free ambient.The kitchen was sufficiently equipped to make simple meals. Local farm and the markets were a good source of fresh produce, and the park attractions were near by. We appreciated not to be in the middle of a touristy area and welcomed the peace of the cabin setting upon our return from the park. The mooring is just the right height to get in and out of a kayak/canoe which are available on the property. So tranquil; only the occasional call of a loon or chattering of a squirrel to break the silence.

BEWARE!!! Terrible experience!!!

On the surface this looks like a lovely cabin on a quiet pond on MDI. My family & I were very excited about our Maine vacation & stay at the Cabin. Unfortunately, it could not have gone more wrong!! We are still offended and scarred from the terrible treatment by the owner Elizabeth. We are wrongly accused of putting a burn mark on the deck. Since we only ate breakfast at the house and never used the BBQ there was no way we caused the burn on the deck. Elizabeth harassed us with accusations and even dug through our garbage looking for evidence. All she found was cooked vegetables which she claimed could not be breakfast food. We even sent her a photo of the eggs and vegetables in the pan they were cooked in to defend ourselves. Elizabeth lives in Boston had not been to the house in weeks after many other renters used the house. She came right after we left (a day early) because we reported a broken washing machine with a door that did not close and suds that poured all over the floor that we needed to clean up. Elizabeth clearly does not have the comprehensive check in / check out procedure so you are greatly at risk of being charged for something that a previous renter caused. The contract states that if you do not report something that it wrong with the house within twenty four hrs she can keep your entire deposit. The burn mark was there when we arrived and we assumed it was a part of the rustic cabin. If we make a list of all of the flaws of the cabin it would have been a very long list (dirty bedspreads, dangerous tall step to enter, holes in the screens, rugs without pads & my elderly mother slipped & took a hard fall, very dated kitchen). We were just trying to make due & not complain to her about all of the things that were wrong. How were we suppose to know that the burn mark wasn't just part of the cabin? My brother joined for 4 nights at the last minute so we had one more guest (total of 6 adults and 1 child, still under the 8 person capacity). We offered to pay for the extra person. Instead she took our entire deposit!!! She offered to give us a small part of the deposit back to cover for the fact that there were no bedspread covers on any of the dirty blankets (after accusing us of taking the covers but then later finding them folded in the closet). Elizabeth withdrew offer and took our entire deposit. Taking our entire despite to pay for deck repairs that we did not cause is morally wrong! Terrible! Caused us grief! Avoid cabin!!!!

Rustic cabin in a peaceful setting

Rustic and charming are the best words to describe this log cabin. Although the western view was slightly obstructed by trees, the side deck was the best place to watch the sunset and relax with a glass of wine. The cabin does not have cable tv - and the wi-fi connection was spotty at best- but there was a good selection of books & games provided by the owner. The weather was awesome the first week of September, days were warm enough but not too hot. Evenings got chilly - we lit the wood-burning fireplace the last night. Unfortunately, there was no outdoor fire pit....the night sky on MDI was awesome and we would've loved to be able to sit around the fire and look at the stars. The house's biggest drawback was the kitchen. Granted, we had two chefs in our party. However, they had a hard time making due with the outdated appliances, pots, & pans. For a group that plans on eating out a lot, this may not be a big deal - however we had dinner in most nights. The owner was very nice - despite some initial confusion on our reservation (which was straightened out with plenty of time to spare). She left a lot of brochures and recommendations and called to check on us the first night. Overall, we had a great week and are grateful that she was willing to share her house with us.

Peaceful, Comfortable Getaway Right on MDI

This lovely log home is ideally situated far back from the road on a PRISTINE, seemingly 100% private pond and undeveloped (but for the house) property. Upon arrival, we were greeted by the echoing call of loons. Each day, we had a hard time leaving to enjoy the rest of what MDI has to offer because this place offered such comfort and serenity. The home itself is roomy enough and can accommodate a family - maybe two depending upon ages and number of kids. The small dock is just the right level and size for launching/landing kayaks and canoes. Although we brought our own kayaks, the house does have kayaks and a canoe as well as other water toys in the basement (accessed from doors outside). Fishing rods too! The pond is flat-out gorgeous and appears to be a natural part of the island's landscape/ecosystem -- marshy areas, beaver huts and all! Deer watched from the shadows of the serene woods as I paddled along an unspoiled shoreline opposite the house :) Our experience renting was simple and flawless with great communication from the owner (no manager or agent involved here). Being in town during our arrival, the owner welcomed us personally when we had an initial need and was hospitable to a fault! And, when we encountered a minor plumbing issue, it was addressed and fixed immediately without any inconvenience to us. As for the location, you can't get any better insofar as having what feels like a place in the deep Maine wilderness yet being just a few short miles from the most desirable spots on MDI. Lovely place, lovely experience; We have our sights on coming back next year!

Perfect Maine cabin getaway

The Pretty Marsh Cabin was a perfect retreat. The photos in the VRBO post are accurate but do not tell the entire story. If you rent the Pretty Marsh Cabin, you essentially have your own private lake. There appears to be only one other home on the lake, and it didn't seem to have a dock. This means that you can canoe, standup paddle, or kayak without motor boats or anyone else for that matter. It is just you and nature on this large and beautiful lake! I was out on the lake and I saw bald eagles, many ducks and babies, and I had them all to myself! There is only National Park lands across the lake. It was heaven! The house itself is extremely well appointed. You don't need any guidebooks or maps, as they are all there. The beds were comfortable and the kids were extremely happy with the cabin. Fishing rods were supplied! The towels were wonderful. We highly recommend the Pretty Marsh cabin for your Maine getaway!

Seclusion, being surrounded by nature, the only home on the pond with electricity (camp without electricity is set far up, out of view, seldom used). Tasteful furnishings.
