About this property

Traditional Lakefront Cabin Located On Beautiful George's Pond

This traditional lakefront cabin located on George's Pond has everything you could want for a quiet, peaceful Maine vacation. Built in 1912, its rustic ambiance has all of the modern-day amenities without sacrificing the experience. Fall asleep listening to the loons sing and awaken to the sunrise watching eagles and osprey feed on the lake. This cabin is nestled amongst tall pines that will take your breath away. George's Pond is a 380-acre spring-fed lake surrounded by glimpses of Schoodic Mountain. This cabin sleeps 6-8 (Queen master bed, 4 twin beds in the lofts, and a double bed on the sleeping porch). We are minutes to Schoodic Mountain and Schoodic Beach which is great for hiking and swimming or a picnic on Donnell’s Pond. Schoodic’s summit is flat with 360-degree breathtaking views over Frenchman Bay and Mount Desert Island. The Downeast Sunrise Trail is a revamped railway with miles of trail for biking, hiking, ATV, or walking (see website for more information) just 3 minutes from the cabin. Schoodic Head is 30 minutes towards Winter Harbor and also part of Acadia National Park. There you will find beautiful hikes, a cute harbor town, and great ice cream and see some more of beautiful Maine. The cabin is 40 minutes to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. There you can hike, mountain bike, shop the island boutiques, dine in Bar Harbor restaurants, go whale watching or grab a delicious ice cream cone. You can also play golf at the famous Kebo Valley course. Pick blueberries on your way home and make a cobbler or relax on the dock. We provide kayaks and life vests. There are multiple bike, kayak, and boat rentals available. Vacation awaits!
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

About the host

Host profile image

My husband grew up in Bar Harbor and spent his Summers as a boy going "upta camp" on Donnell's Pond which is just a few miles away. It was important to him that his son spend his Summer's the same way he did. We love George's Pond. It's our happy place.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this property because its a traditional old historic cabin with the ladder up to the lofts and floor to ceiling fireplace. When you wake up in the morning in the master, you feel like you're in the lake. Friends and family who have visited report back that this is their kid's all time favorite vacation. And that's pretty special.

What makes this property unique

The thing that makes this property unique is that its incredibly quiet and peaceful yet close to the tourist attractions of Acadia and Bar Harbor. The only sounds you hear is the singing of the loons. It's a Summer dream!
