About this property

Relax in a tranquil log home on direct lake front property. The Hermitage awaits

Welcome to a secluded log home on 4 acres of Walkers Pond! First time offered for rental 2024. Our home is not in a HOA or being listed by a rental agency. Tranquility and privacy await your family. Our home is located on a dirt road, no traffic and no deliveries. Kayak around the lake, take the canoe out for a day of fishing (bass and pickerel are plentiful) or sunbathe on the 40' dock. Bring a yoga mat and find inner peace while you take in the sunrise. Sandy beach area is Mother Nature dependent. Motor boats of any kind are not permitted on the pond. Two kayaks, a canoe and beach chairs are provided as well as life jackets and beach towels. Walk or bike the miles of paths on Hawksnest State Park directly connected to the property. Dogs are welcome! One dog per booking please. Grill some fresh local seafood on the new Weber grill. Relax on the 900 square foot deck (which has an oversized outdoor shower) or take a short drive to the restaurants, galleries and boutiques of the quaint villages. You can always find some live music at any of the area venues. For the golfers, you can experience a day of golf at any of the 27 public courses on the Cape. There are at least five 18 hole championship courses within a half hour drive. Enjoy the Bay side beaches with beautiful sunsets, especially at low tide, or the National Seashore beaches. Cranberry bogs, theatre, mini-golf and go carts as well as baseball are always popular attractions and all close by. The Hermitage offers the best of both worlds! You can relax at the cabin all week or take in all the beauty that the Cape has to offer.

Tranquility
The cabin is a rustic, private, tranquil retreat. Paddling on the pond and relaxing on the floating dock was great. The cabin was neat, clean and comfortable. Ken and Dawn were very attentive and accommodating. It is convenient to beaches, attractions and restaurants. Thank you!
