The apartment was cute and quiet place to sleep and work. The location was beautiful by the lake and woods. Wifi worked well for us. It’s in a great location between Bangor and Bar Harbor/Acadia. The place was clean and the hosts were very responsive and friendly. Kitchen had what we needed to cook and do laundry. Only suggestion is adding contactless entry for those that may prefer it.

Excellent experience, would absolutely stay again!Todd was an incredible host - great communication, he made the space even more friendly and comfortable.The space itself is close enough that if you need something the hosts can be there quickly but far enough that you have privacy. We had plenty of room and the kitchen & washer/dryer were a such a plus!Though the space is in a secluded area it’s not a far drive to Bangor or Bar Harbor for city life! Overall a perfect way to get to know Maine

Better than we imagined spot on Brewer Lake! Built for family member and therefore extra special in every way. Hosts went our of their way to help with our boat in and out, and they also pointed us toward good restaurants and other special local places. We thoroughly enjoyed our week and were a bit sad to leave. However, we will return!

Our stay was wonderful. Spend most of the time with family, but it was so nice to come to a comfortable place by the lake to sleep and rest for the next days adventures. Highly recommend this place. Place was clean and easy to access. Thank you.

Great gem off the beaten path.

Todd was a great and very accommodating host. We had 2 small motorcycle trailers and he made room at his small lake house. We enjoyed the quiet location as we were out all day riding touring various parts of Maine. It was a great place to rest at night and relax before we headed out the next morning.

The apartment was very clean, very quiet area and out of the way of the hustle and bustle of city life. Nestled way back in the woods off main road. Perfect for us. Owner was very nice, he sat down with us and gave the layout of the area and the apartment. Good location for sightseeing surrounding areas. Bar Harbor, Winter Harbor, Acadia National Park was 11/2 hr drive.. Portland 2 1/2 hour drive. Bangor 10 min. Must try Timber Kitchen and Bar in Bangor, then walk across street to casino for a little fun.

Good Location Near Bangor

We stayed here for a week. We used it as our base for touring northern and central Maine. We had very positive contacts with our host. The location is on a beautiful lake about fifteen minutes south of Bangor. This is an apartment above the garage. It was clean and spacious. The neighborhood is quiet, and the road was safe for walking. We enjoyed our stay here and would do so again.

This was the best experience ever. The hosts were kind and courteous. They offered a ride on their boat. They had all the amenities you could think of in place. It was clean and bright. I work from home and did some while staying and the internet was very stable and reliable. The furniture was clean and comfortable, and the kitchen was well appointed (I hate cooking, but for the right person, it is awesome). It was the best experience and we highly recommend staying with them. We hope they have a very successful season!

This is a gem of a place - convenient, lovely, spotless, and utterly quiet except for the overnight calls of the loons. Friendly cooperative hosts and a gorgeous kayak ride on the lake - We'll be back!

Cindy and Todd were amazing hosts to the perfect lake getaway. The apartment was private and spacious for 3 adults. We enjoyed kayaking and canoeing on the lake and opening the door at night to listen to the loons. It was very central to many different hiking trails and destination spots like Arcadia National Park, so we had plenty to keep us busy. We couldn't have asked for a better spot to vacation. I think we found our yearly vacation spot and can't wait to come back next year!
