The view is just amazing and the experience was exactly what we were expecting - rustic comfort in a beautiful setting. Thanks so much for- would return for sure!
Unbelievably beautiful spot with a spectacular view. Very private and the owners are exceptionally helpful and responsive should you have any questions.Amazing in any season, but If you're looking for a winter host for your snowmobile home base you can do no better.
The eagle eye cabin is a true gem. We love that it’s close to the border and near true northern Maine dirt roads, perfect for packing a picnic & looking for moose. The cabin is well maintained and fully stocked with everything you’d need. The rooms were clean and the host is extremely welcoming & easy to contact. WiFi & cell reception were great! Plenty of local eats, grocery stores and local churches to choose from. We plan to stay again and longer next time with the kids! Thank you for a beautiful fall weekend!
This million dollar view is well worth the steep mountain road to Eagle Eye. You are above the clouds and river mist in the morning. This immaculate off grid cabin has everything you need including indoor plumbing. You will want for nothing. The host is very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay in September.
My first time staying here and it did not disappoint. The owners were commutative and helpful. The views from here are incredible, offering a northers view of the St. John Valley and all the way into Quebec. I saw many bald eagles too.The drive up was steep in spots, so I definitely recommend and all/4-wd vehicle.
Sherri, the host, is very quick to respond to any questions or concerns.The property is on the side of a mountain overlooking the saint john river and all by itself, exactly like you would expect from the listing. The view is incredible, especially if you're lucky enough to wake up on a fall morning above the clouds, like my wife and I on our first morning there. We were greeted by a bald eagle when we first pulled into the property and saw at least half a dozen more over the weekend. Sitting by the fire and looking out over the valley at night, was an exceptional experience... one of my favorite days of all time.I highly recommend staying here, but don't make a lot of plans because you don't want to miss your time overlooking the river.
Endless views stretch northward over the meandering Canadian hills. The rugged entrance to this peaceful lookout provides the perfect introduction to the serenity and coziness found at the top. Light a fire in the wood stove, kick up your feet, and enjoy the view in peace.

Thank you for your kind words! This is truly a place where nature speaks for itself. You were wonderful guests. We look forward to hosting you again in the future.
If you're looking for the perfect getaway in Fort Kent, Eagle Eye Cabin is it. The view is absolutely impeccable, and Fort Kent has become our favorite place on earth. This cabin had everything we needed and more for an amazing stay.We brought our SxS to explore the trails, and trail access was easy to find. Communication with the host was fantastic, helpful and check-in was quick and effortless.The only thing I'd mention is the road leading up to the cabin—it's VERY steep! We definitely don't recommend hauling your SxS up with your truck. If possible, ride your SxS up to the cabin first, then drive your truck up without the extra weight. If you have the people for it. It made a huge difference.Overall, we absolutely loved our stay and will definitely be back. Highly recommend this cabin to anyone wanting to experience the beauty of Fort Kent!
