A small year round Cottage on Beautiful Whetstone Pond with Majestic Russell Mountain emerging right from the shoreline across from you. Easy access to ATV and Snowmobile Trails. Great Summertime Fishing, sorry Whetstone is closed to Ice Fishing, but good Ice fishing just down the street.

I stayed here with my sibling and some cousins and it was excellent. The camp has everything you need, was very tidy, and spacious for its size. The view was beautiful and the porch is a great place to hang out.
Beautiful, clean, easy to find lakeside rental! Comfortably sleeps 6, direct access to the water for swimming and kayaking with 2 campfire options. Highly recommend!
This cabin is so cute and has everything you can imagine needing. The owners were great at communicating and very helpful. My friends and I had a fantastic time right on the water, listening to the loons.
Clean-Full of Charm-PeacefulBeautiful pond-REALLY ENJOYED our stay! Hosts responded promptly to questions and thought of everything that guests might need! Perfect!
As always, we enjoyed the peace and tranquility of Andy's Place. This four day stay was one of our longer ones and we had beautiful weather that allowed us to be outside and enjoy the pond. We love that the property has kayaks for us to use. The spacious screened in porch was a favorite place to view the fascinating habits of the loons as well as sunsets and even moonsets. The camp is comfortable, check-in/check-out is easy, and the hosts are helpful and attentive. Our sixth time staying here, obviously we love it!
This cabin was awesome. The Owner's was AWESOME. wherther was awesome. Even the rain was awesome. Just relaxing watching the water hit the shore line. BROTH'A BILL
We enjoyed our stay! It felt like home rt away. Learned the hard way about pond life , porches and bugs but we figured out quickly how much the critters like bright lights!! Love the area, will return!!
Upon arrival we were met with the beautiful view and upon entering the cottage, amazed with the decor and atmosphere. Family and I had such a great time with the water front access of the pond. My favorite was the enclosed porch that I could sit and soak in the view with my morning coffee or evening glass of wine.
this was a perfect getaway for my husband and i, i love that they decorated the residence so cute and they had it so nicely cleaned. i enjoyed everything about it, and they had stock of fire wood for the wood stove :) 10000% recommend. our doggies also loved their stay!
Beautifully kept home overlooking the water on Whetstone Pond. Peaceful and perfect place to relax, read and enjoy nature. Beautiful touches all around the home and both us and our dog were at ease immediately walking in. Check out Monson, Greenville and short trips to Bangor, Bar Harbor .thank you! And we already miss it!
The place was clean and so cozy! We will be returning!

About the host
Hosted by Paul Morin
Hi, I'm Paul, my wife Kelly and I have been happily married for 15 yrs. We are proud grandparents of some amazing grandchildren. I care-take multiple rental properties around this area, so when this one that a friend had owned became available, we jumped on it. My wife and I have been renovating it a bit this summer while using it, now it's time to share it with all of you. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do...
Why they chose this property
Whetstone Pond is quite possibly one of the nicest little ponds you will ever see. Majestic Russell Mountain rises right from the shore across from you. The sun will set right out in front of the screen porch. You'll listen to the Loons and this time of year, you'll get to see the leaves change. You won't find a better area than Northern Maine to enjoy the Foliage...
What makes this property unique
Year round access, to all of Maine's amenities, including Kayaking, fishing, hiking, snowmobiling, atv'ing, or anything else you can dream up.
