We had a great experience! My kids loved the lake, paddleboarding, and atv riding. Coming back to such a relaxing and beautiful home on the lake after a day of activities was awesome:) We bqq'd, had bonfires, and played cards. Lovely and peaceful place, would definitely return.

Amazing
We were all pleasantly surprised by the house and the location. The house was so amazing from the location to the water access so perfect. We were thrilled that the house was hidden from the rest of the world, although we had neighbors you would never know it. There was no better place to have your morning coffee than the deck or the dock just perfect. We went to dinner a few times and was thrilled all three times. We went to The Dockside, which is a must. The manager Billy was an amazing person who set out to make sure our meals and drinks were perfect and that he did 100%. We went to Kelly's Landing which was a great place just for the views. We also went to the Stress Free Moose which was great and the staff was amazing. Our trip was more than perfect we had the best time, hope to return next year.

Lovely cabin in a great quiet setting!
The cabin is clean, comfortable, and in a great setting! We love sitting on the deck or porch in the mornings with our coffee. We've been back too many times to count!

Third year in a row
This is our third year in a row staying here. 2 teens and 2 dogs. We all love it. I do wish there was a dishwasher so I could sterilize the dishes that are there. But instead, I just bring my own dishes- but that is my only complaint) I recommend renting a canoe from Wild Ones rental . We took the canoe out at sunrise and got an amazing view of the sun over the mountains. We got an amazing photo

Late June 2023
The home is cozy and spacious. Fishing from the dock with our kids was so fun! It was our first Vacasa rental, and first vacation staying with extended family. Inspired us to make more efforts like this. We would definitely return to The Owl’s Nest. Thank you!

a gem in the wild
The home was the perfect base for exploring this beautiful area. We loved the dock, the crystal clear water, the loons, and the stars at night. It is remote so if you want a place close to town this is not for you, but we loved it!

2nd trip
This is our second year staying here. We really enjoy it here. This year we rented a canoe from Wilson Cabins (about a 1 1/2 miles down the lake). We just rowed the canoe from Wilson cabins to this house and kept it for a few days before rowing it back. It worked out great. It is very easy to get a canoe in and out of the water here. My teenage daughter loved relaxing on the dock. We did do some swimming- not great swimming for young kids since there are so many rocks- but the teens had fun. I love that we can bring our dog too. It is a very quite, peaceful beautiful get away. We are hoping to be back next year!

Peaceful Getaway
We spent a very relaxing 5 days and 4 nights at the cabin with family. Communication related to our stay was great and the check in process was smooth. The camp itself had all the necessary amenities. The dock was perfect for our boat and the fishing was fun for the kids even though it was slow. We enjoyed time by the fire pit toasting s’mores and swimming in the pristine pond. Lot’s of memories made and we wouldn’t hesitate to go back to do it again.

Quiet get away
Place was clean and comfortable with plenty of space. Beautiful views and very quiet. It isn’t the best for swimming because of the rocks-but the water was very clear and we went in anyway. I do wish we had a canoe or kayak, but we all really enjoyed our trip and would recommend it to anyone. My teenage daughters didn’t want to leave!

Wonderful
On top of the great location, the place was very well kept and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay from a few simple spices in the cabinet to fire wood in the yard. Wonderful place, if you're not used to maine, try not to let the roads discourage you. Feel free to ask Vacasa or the caretaker for help navigating since gps doesn't show all the roads in the region. Once you arive though you may not want leave even to go home!

Beautiful location
The house was nice and in a beautiful spot on Lower Wilson Pond, the dock was nice but if you’re looking for a swimming area the entrance to the water from here was very rocky, (perfectly manageable for our kids who did plenty of swimming 😊) The house itself offered plenty of space and lots of sleeping accommodations but the downstairs ceilings aren’t completely finished and the downstairs bathroom had some pipes/hoses (I believe carrying water to the upstairs bathroom) that were exposed and occasionally leaked which would make the floor a little wet but it was certainly manageable
