About this property

Charming Log Cabin on Big Wood Pond in Jackman, Maine

Welcome to this cozy log cabin in Jackman Maine located directly on Big Wood Pond with spectacular views of Sally Mountain and panoramic views of the lake!

This charming log cabin features 2 bedrooms, with 1 queen and 1 full size bed, an open loft with a twin trundle day bed, washer/dryer, full kitchen, dining area, full bath with tub and shower, and WiFi. The cabin is cozy and suited for 4 guests maximum.

Referred to as the Switzerland of Maine, Jackman is an outdoor enthusiasts dream! In the winter the area draws snowmobilers from all over for its extensive groomed and maintained trail system that accommodates every skill level. Trails connect to the Forks in the south, Greenville (Moosehead Lake) in the east, Canada to the north and Eustis and Rangeley to the west.

If ice fishing is what you like, you can walk down to the lake from the front of the cabin (please note; it's a tad steep with no maintained pathway) and you're right on the lake! Big Wood Pond is known for trout and salmon action throughout the winter. Night fishing for cusk could land you a whopper!

Like snowshoeing? Strap on those snowshoes and experience the quiet and serenity of a snow-covered landscape. Cross the frozen lake and explore the undeveloped, conserved side of Big Wood Pond. It's magical.

Want to do some sightseeing? Jackman is only 2 hours from Old Québec City. Old Québec is the most intact fortified town north of Mexico, retaining its colonial architecture for over 400 years. It is the historic and cultural heart of Québec City, and the birthplace of French North America. Don't forget your passport!

The cabin is conveniently located in town with an easy walk to Bishop's convenience store (best pizza around!) and local restaurants. You can access the snowmobile trails off of Main Street by driving only a quarter-mile to a half-mile from the cabin in either direction.

The cabin does share a driveway with neighbors on Main Street, so please be respectful of their parking and be respectful of driving sleds over any bare pavement. Plowing is provided and stairs to the cabin are cleared but may be slippery so please use caution! Please park vehicles at the top of the driveway (near the shed) to allow access for clearing snow.

The weather in Jackman is a little like living in another world. It's extremely changeable and extremely exciting. Unfortunately, for that reason, we cannot accept last minute cancellations with a refund due to storms.

The host was pleasant to chat with. That cabin has a beautiful view of the lake and mountains. It is located conveniently in town but just off the beaten path. The cabin was very clean. Snowmobiling in the area was great and very accessible from the cabin without trailering. We would definitely stay there again.

Family snowmobile trip

The house was perfect. It was my husband and myself along with our two kids and their boyfriend and girlfriend. It was comfortable, clean and the view out the front window was amazing. We would definitely stay here again.

I cannot say enough about how wonderful these guests were. They were very conscientious about everything and communicated if they had any questions at all. They left the cabin looking like no one had even been there! I would most definitely rent to them again and highly recommend them as guests. Thank you so much!!

Hi Shawn, Thank you for your feedback. Much appreciated. Sorry to hear the tv's were not working well. I have not experienced any problems with the one in the living room or in the lakeside/front bedroom, I'll investigate if there's a problem in the back bedroom. I agree the shower head needs to be replaced, I wish I was more handy! I would have switched it out awhile ago. The water heater is on the small side (only recommended for a household of 1-2) so it doesn't take much to use it up. Unfortunately, the area where the tank is located will not accommodate anything larger. I do try to bring attention to it by mentioning it in my welcome letter though. Thank you again for the feedback and thank you for being a guest! :-)
