Krista, I am so glad you enjoyed the smaller towns around. They truly represent life in Maine! I am also glad the camp nearby didn't interfere with your sense of peace and tranquility.

We had a very nice time at the cabin. The lake was pretty, the loons were neat to hear, and we had everything we needed for an easy stay. I caught a beautiful sunrise from the shore on the sunniest day of the trip.3

Spacious, quiet cabin in nice location

We stayed for a few days for a family trip with our pup. Check in was easy and the place was very nice - spacious and clean and comfortable with lots of extras llike condiments and phone cubes, etc. Close-ish to places but worth a little drive. Sharon was great and available which was nice. Would definitely stay again!

Quiet and relaxing

This was our second stay, and it was as quiet and relaxing as the first! We love staying on a lake but being near the ocean. There's great kayaking and lots of land preserves for hiking. Or you can just hang out at the lake!

A beautiful getaway

The property has a gorgeous view of the lake and gets lots of natural light. The kitchen was really well equipped (much better than many rentals). And Sharon was very engaged as a host. Overall a really nice place to stay!

Excellent!

We had a wonderful stay in this lovely cabin right on the water. Our son enjoyed fishing and kayaking everyday and we absolutely loved the big picture windows and outside deck. The house was clean, well stocked and well maintained. Great location for being close to Deere Isle and not too far from Acadia National Park. There is actually an awesome hiking trail just .2 miles from the cabin with beautiful views of the bay. I would recommend this place to anyone!

Loved every minute!

We had such an incredible time at Sharon’s cabin. She was delightful to meet, and had the whole place well stocked for several days worth of home cooking, canoeing on the pond, and relaxing around the house. Can’t recommend this place enough to anyone looking for a great getaway in Maine! We were just an hour away from hiking in Acadia and got to see lots of fun stops along the way. Deer Isle was also great to visit, and very close by. We loved it, our dogs loved it, and we hope to come back again!

Wonderful tranquil vacation location

We loved our time together in Brooksville Maine. Walker's Pond was wonderful. We really enjoyed our time canoeing & kayaking and the quietness. We definitely recommend this location to anyone that wants to get away from the craziness of life and enjoys the peacefulness of the woods. Still lots to do if you want to drive, Bar Habor & Acadia National Park were amazing! Sharon was amazing with the booking( this was our 1st time staying in another person home) she also explained everything about the area and places to go.

Lovely cabin in the woods

The property is gorgeous! It over looks a very impressive pond. There is a wonderful deck you can sit on and enjoy the view with your morning coffee or evening beverages. There was more than enough room for us. The cabin was equipped for whatever kind of cooking you wish to do. The host was wonderful! We will definitely book again in the future!for whatever kind of cooking yo

Beautiful house w/ a deck overlooking the water. A canoe, albeit very heavy, was available for use on the pond. Not mentioned in any reviews, though, was a summer camp directly across from the house on the pond. The noise was pretty constant as the kids swam, water skied, had singing performances and just the general noise of hundreds of kids on the water. We laughed it off and had a great time, but not quiet and peaceful as advertised.

Lisa, thank you for your feedback. I will definitely go into the site and make mention of that. I have had the same renters in the camp from the first part of July to mid-August for over 10 years, so I totally blanked on mentioning it for new clients. I’m sorry it wasn’t the quiet vacation you had counted on. Camp runs from June 26 to Aug. 15 in 2026.

Spacious cabin in the woods by Walker Pond

Cabin offers many benefits (quiet location, affordable price, large deck, kayak, private beach). We appreciated the owner's checking in with us and cleaning up some debris on the porch for us on our arrival. However, we were disappointed by several things that, if paid attention to, would have created a more welcoming and comfortable environment. Cabin would benefit from: fresh patio furniture, a ceiling fan in the Great Room, to help with stuffiness in hot weather, new toaster and cofffee maker, a kettle for tea drinkers, and a less industrial shower curtain. The access to the pond (a highlight of the listing) is a series of steps with a make-shift hand rail follwed by 10-15 feet of uneven ground including mossy boulders, and piles of leaves, which made it very problematic when getting the kayak to the water (we didn't try the canoe as it seemed too cumbersome). It's listed as a "perfect spot for a honeymoon", but we felt that the place just needs a bit more love.

A very cozy place tucked into beautiful surroundings with a lovely lake view. We especially enjoyed the sunrises. The house had everything we needed, and Sharon was a great communicator who responded quickly to any questions. Overall, a great stay and conveniently located near the main attractions.

Relaxing and secluded

We spent our honeymoon here and it was absolutely lovely. It was so nice to be disconnected and spend quality time together. The surrounding areas of Brooksville, and deer isle were absolutely breathtaking. The home was tucked away and very nice. Sharon was an awesome host. We'll definitely be coming back for a second trip.

Sharon was very easy to work with and the house is a little secluded - which we wanted. The no WiFi aspect made us focus on other things, which was great.
