For winter renters: While the driveway is a solid dirt driveway that we keep plowed, it is steep and you will NOT get in or out without chains and 4 wheel drive - for sure! There is no room to turn around a snowmobile trailer. That being said, there is a plowed spot at the top of the driveway, on the road, for parking but you’ll need to walk down the driveway the camp.

Second time staying at this camp in November and it was the same as last year- very comfortable and clean with a beautiful view of Portage Lake. Judy is very responsive and check-in / out is very easy. We hope to go back during warmer weather months next time and enjoy the fire pit and deck.
We booked our stay for a moose hunt. The accommodations were well beyond our expectations and would recommend this property to anyone to experience the area
This property is perfect for access to fish river gate of the North Maine Woods, accommodations and host are way above a 5 star. We will always look for this place when renting in Portage Lake.
We had a great week in northern Maine. The location was perfect for exploring the North Maine Woods, close to the entrance gate. Nice little general store nearby that had a little bit of everything you might need. The property itself was cozy, private, and had a excellent view out over the lake.
This rental was perfect for our needs, amazing communication with Judy an Jeff the whole time, the place was large and clean. Perfect view of the lake, we were up for a moose hunt which we got the beginning of the week. Definitely will look for this rental every time we need a place on portage lake.
Warm and cozy home with beautiful views of the lake. This lovely home had everything we needed for the week. Very relaxing and great location. Judy is a wonderful hostess and responded right away with answers to any questions. Our next visit to Portage Lake will be in 2025 and we’d love to stay here again!
This property is full of tender loving care by the owner in so many ways. The warm attention to detail in regards to cleanliness, furnishings and providing a multitude of amenities ( kayaks, canoe, life vests, clean grill, outdoor sitting/eating areas,) is some of the best we have ever experienced. Judy was responsive to all our communications and inquiries. The property was quiet and filled with nature sounds.
My husband and I and my parents enjoyed a lovely week at this beautiful lake house. The house was very comfortable and fully stocked with everything you might need, including games, a working gas grill and a well-stocked kitchen. The view of the lake is amazing, a perfect view to enjoy in the morning with a cup of coffee in the large living space or on the deck. We were in the area for moose hunting season and would definitely book this place again in the future.
The property was amazing. Judy was great at communicating with us during our stay. If you want a peaceful retreat away from it all, this is the place to be.
This was our first VRBO rental and the experience was great! Jeff and Judy made sure we were comfortable and that everything went well. The house was great and just what we needed for a vacation getaway.
Jeff and I have been Married for 38 years and have two wonderful kids, one crazy Lab, and a great network of family and friends who we love to travel and camp with. We love spending time outside on a hiking trail, in a canoe/kayak, snowmobiling or just chilling by the fire pit. It’s been our dream to have a camp of our own and in 2020 we were able to make it happen! We are looking forward to building a lifetime worth of memories here with our family and friends!
