Beautiful and Serene Cabin

We really enjoyed our stay at the Lazy Lumberjack Hilltop Cabin! The home was exceptionally clean and beautifully designed! The location was so quiet and peaceful! We would definitely stay again if we head back to the area!

Beautiful Getaway

Our stay was mostly amazing, minus the issues with the grill. Although the cylinder was half full, the grill stopped working 20 mins into use. Even after following directions as written on the grill side, it would ignite and go out again. It definitely needs to be cleaned properly to get rid of all the buildup and grease underneath. That was disappointing since we had a BBQ meal planned and had to stop in between. I love the clear driving directions but we would have appreciated some sort of lighting or at least radium stickers to show the pathway up the hill to the cabin, especially for when returning after sunset so that we know which way to drive. Otherwise, stay was very comfortable, clean and well supplied.
Response from VrboOwner on 26 Jun 2026
We are glad to hear for the most part that your stay at the cabin was comfortable. We are sorry to hear about the grill issues and will have that checked. Also, looking into lighting for the path per your suggestion. We hope you come see us again soon.

Our hosts were incredibly welcoming--they made sure to have lights on so we could see when arriving in the dark, and as it was over the Thanksgiving holiday, they left us a gingerbread house to assemble (my 11-year-old daughter loved this!). They were responsive and the house was everything we needed for a refresh.

Hilltop cabin

The cabin layout was awesome. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. Quiet and very relaxing to return to after a day out running around. We enjoyed the ability to sit outside on the patio and relax and play games inside.

Perfect new cabin near Acadia!

This cabin was awesome-so perfectly furnished and charming in every way. We were close enough to go hiking every day in Acadia, but had such an amazing and comfortable (and affordable) place to come back to afterward! Stargazing and fire pit were so great. Pantry was stocked with complimentary snacks, too. All in all a great stay and we’d definitely come back.

We had our college student we were dropping off for Freshman year at UMAINE. We decided to make a little extended vacation out of it. We were looking for something decompressing & relaxing to take the edge off of our emotions dropping our baby off to the next chapter. This remote cabin in Franklin was perfect! It was located perfectly between Orono & Bar Harbor. We enjoyed family time and visiting the area of Bar Harbor! The cabin was clean, comfortable and sized right! I had a few questions and was answered promptly. I highly recommend!

Soothing

We had a wonderful experience staying here. The setting was perfect for us - secluded and heavily wooded. The only sounds we heard were of the winding stream and the wind rustling the leaves on the trees. The home was well-maintained and very clean. We were pleased to find the home as listed and as photographed.

The Lazy Lumberjack Hilltop Cabin is a beautiful, fully functional home, with all the you need to live there minus the food. Very clean and comfortable beds and furniture. The 2 bathrooms are a plus. Heating was great. A gas grill outside was a life saver. Very private and quiet. If you are going to hike at Acadia or just go to Bay Harbor area is a 40 minute drive, very reasonable if you are comparing rates of were to stay. My friends a I were very pleased with the Cabin.
