The host was courteous, reponsive and provided interesting details about the area. We had a pleasant, peaceful stay in the woods!

Super cozy cabin—a bit chilly at nights (that’s mid-October in Maine), but nice and warm under the blankets. We had a lovely weekend, going on hikes and enjoying the beautiful area. Thanks!

What a wonderful place to become engaged! This was a perfect A-frame cabin that had access to Kel's dock. With only being 5 mins away from a small town center you got to choose whether you wanted to hike across the street in the state park or visit the local general store. One thing to note is that there is a pit toilet rather than a toilet inside the cabin. That took us by surprise upon arrival, but was not a big deal to us as a couple. Thanks for the memories!

We stayed at the Boathouse for our honeymoon and it was everything we wanted and more. The space is rustic yet comfortable and has a kitchenette that allowed us to make breakfast in the mornings and enjoy coffee and tea alongside our favorite feature, the wood stove. The shower had hot water and the outhouse was comfortable. We were able to unplug from it all and left feeling so rejuvenated. Hope to be back soon!
