Rustic Family Camp Steps from Moosehead Lake...Fire Pit, Deck & Dog-Friendly

YOUR MAINE SUMMER STARTS HERE

Welcome to our little slice of Maine! Our rustic, family-owned camp sits on quiet Harford’s Point, just a short walk from beautiful Moosehead Lake. It’s a place to slow down, enjoy the outdoors, and make memories together.

Whether you’re planning a family vacation, a getaway with friends, or a relaxing retreat for two, the camp is a comfortable home base for exploring the Moosehead region, with plenty of reasons to spend a quiet day right here.

AT A GLANCE

- Sleeps up to 6 guests
- Two lake access points about 100 yards away, with a quiet dock OR grassy beach
- Private deck, gas grill, and outdoor fire pit (firewood provided)
- Wood stove and electric heaters
- Well-stocked kitchen
- Separate sunroom for relaxing or extra sleeping space
- Dog-friendly ($85 fee. Up to 2 dogs allowed.)
- No Wi-Fi; cell service is generally reliable
- Parking for 2 vehicles
- Non-smoking property

SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS

Bedroom 1: Queen bed
Bedroom 2: Double bed
Living room: Double futon
Sunroom: Double futon

Please note: The camp has a somewhat unconventional layout that requires traffic flow to pass through the main bedroom. We share this up front so your group can choose the arrangement that works best for you. See "CAMP LAYOUT" in picture slideshow.

RELAX AND UNWIND

Start your morning with coffee in an Adirondack chair on the private deck, listening to the birds and watching for deer, chipmunks, and hummingbirds. After a day of exploring, fire up the gas grill, then gather around the fire pit for s’mores, stories, and a star-filled Maine sky.

Inside, the open living area and sunroom give everyone room to spread out. Curl up with a good book, put on a movie from our DVD collection, or bring out the board games and cards. On cool evenings, the wood stove adds that classic camp warmth. We provide firewood for both the stove and the fire pit, so you can spend less time preparing and more time enjoying your stay.

UNPLUG AND RECONNECT

Our camp is intentionally Wi-Fi-FREE, a chance to step away from screens and enjoy each other’s company. Cell service is generally reliable for most carriers, and the public library in Greenville offers internet access if you need it. A flat-screen TV with DVDs is available for movie nights.

A SHORT WALK TO THE LAKE

Lake access is about 100 yards from the camp. A trailhead across the road leads to a quiet dock, perfect for morning coffee, peaceful lake views, or stargazing. A second access point has a grassy beach, a nice option for families with children or anyone looking for a quiet afternoon by the water.

EXPLORE THE MOOSEHEAD LAKE REGION

Adventure is never far away! Within a short drive you’ll find hiking trails for all abilities, fishing and boating, golf, white-water rafting, and scenic places to explore. The roads around Harford’s Point are also great for walking, jogging, and biking.

In Greenville, you’ll find restaurants, grocery stores, outfitters, gift shops, and museums. Rent kayaks, canoes, or bikes, book a moose safari or scenic flight, or take a cruise on the historic steamship Katahdin (affectionately known as the “Kate”).

Or skip the itinerary entirely. Some of the best vacation moments come from slowing down, breathing in the fresh Maine air, and simply being together.

BRINGING YOUR DOG

We know dogs are family, and up to two are welcome! A one-time $85 pet fee applies. We ask that dogs be supervised during their stay and crated whenever left alone inside. Sorry, no cats.

We hope you’ll love our family camp as much as we do! Come for the lake, the hiking, and the adventures, but leave time for quiet mornings, evening fires, and the simple pleasure of being at camp and making memories.

We look forward to sharing our little piece of Maine with you!

Our stay was absolute perfection! This cabin was so cozy and had everything that we needed. The fact that we could share the adventure with our pups made our getaway that much more special. It was so peaceful where we were, yet so close to downtown Greenville and the surrounding area. We would definitely stay here again. Thanks for sharing your camp with us!

It's a great little cabin. It's our second time staying there. It has a great vibe, and really great location. We love the kayak launch just across the street. Only downside is the layout has the primary bedroom as the main point of entrance and to get from bedrooms 2 and 3 you have to go through the primary room.

Thanks for being a returning guest! Our family loves the vibe of the camp, too. A true Maine camp has many unique characteristics that make it a camp. The entrance taking you through the primary bedroom is one unique characteristic of our camp for sure.

We had a perfect weekend even without perfect weather. Thank you for sharing your space. Your cabin had everything we needed and it was so nice to be in a space that is clearly loved and used and not just constructed as a rental with high turnover and bare minimum furnishings. Thank you again, we’d love to return. And the loon tunes whirligig is the coolest thing I’ve seen in years, it brought me so much joy!

Super cute cabin!! Very “cabin in the woods” feel! Great location!! Very clean! Comfortable bed in the master bedroom which is the one we used. Other VRBOs we have stayed in have been better stocked in the kitchen. It was cold when we got there with the main source of heat being a wood stove but no wood to be found. There were space heaters and small wall units. The wood situation was quickly fixed - thank you! No kindling or fire starter so had to use paper grocery bags from the grocery. Luckily it wasn’t really super cold so the space heaters had helped prior to us getting the fire started. We think the problems with stocking the cabin was more the management company than the owners who it appears live in another state.

Very nice place to stay on the lake. Quiet neighborhood. No lake view, but short walk down a wooded path to lake.Small issues: not enough hand towels, face cloths for our stay. No dish sponges or cloths supplied either. So bring some of your own.Otherwise, very nice stay.

A beautiful cozy cabin that was located perfectly between two water access points. An added bonus of the wood for the inside wood stove and outside firepit was included and the property managers were extremely responsive bringing a new propane tank when it was empty on arrival. The cabin stayed cool, the beds were comfortable, and the sounds of the birds were incredible! Also- pet friendly! Loved everything about the place! Would highly recommend for a family trip, solo trip, friends trip- anything. A short drive to Greeneville Junction, and about 20 minutes to Kineo. 5 stars

About the host

Hosted by Bill and Amy Roberts (Marion McManus-Property Manager)

Host profile image
We are a couple from Virginia who have been vacationing at Moosehead Lake since 1989. One of us is a Pennsylvania native while the other is a Tennessean. We both graduated from the University of Tennessee and landed in Virginia after getting married.

Why they chose this property

Our family just loves this camp, and we think you will, too! The first time we walked in, we thought, "Yes! This is exactly how a Maine camp should feel!” Cozy, charming, and inviting. It’s a wonderful place to relax and make many family memories!

The open main room is perfect for family meals, board games, and movie nights, while the sunroom offers a quiet retreat for reading, napping, or simply unwinding. Enjoy morning coffee on the private deck, watch for deer and chipmunks, or listen for the haunting call of a loon from the lake. In the evening, gather around the fire pit for s’mores, laughter, and memories with family and friends.

** Our Family’s Love for Moosehead Lake **
Our story here began in 1989, when a good friend from Greenville invited us to visit Moosehead Lake. We fell in love with the area, and over the years, our summer visits became a family tradition. With our four children, we returned year after year to swim, boat, hike, and enjoy time together.

For years, we dreamed of owning a place of our own. We often drove past this very property on our way to the camp where we stayed, never imagining it might one day be ours. When the opportunity came, we were thrilled to purchase it in 2010!

We hope to pass this camp down to future generations so our grandchildren—and perhaps even our great-grandchildren—can enjoy it, too. Moosehead Lake and the Greenville area hold a special place in our hearts, and we love sharing them with others. We hope you’ll feel at home here and leave with wonderful memories of your own!

What makes this property unique

Our family-owned Maine camp is a welcoming home base for making memories, whether you're planning a family vacation, a couples’ retreat, a weekend getaway, or a honeymoon.

Comfortable, budget-friendly accommodations for a relaxing Maine getaway.

Two nearby access points to beautiful Moosehead Lake, perfect for enjoying the water and peaceful lake views.

A convenient location just a short drive from Greenville’s shops, restaurants, and local attractions.

Outdoor adventures for every interest, including hiking, fishing, swimming, boating, whitewater rafting, and more.

Classic camp experiences with a private deck, fire pit, and the chance to slow down, unplug, and enjoy time together.

Come for the adventures, stay for the peaceful setting, and leave with memories to last a lifetime!
