We absolutely love coming to this house. It is our home away from home and the property is perfect. It’s everything you want in a lake house. We have been thrilled to start a family here and hope to continue growing it returning for many years to come.

We had a wonderful time on our vacation here. The home is just as it’s pictured. The lake is clean and seeing and hearing the loons was just so Maine! We loved waking up and kayaking and enjoying each meal outside. The adults, kids and dogs enjoyed the stay and we hope to stay again.

Absolutely Amazing

This is our second time here, and had my brother and sisters families visit too. Securing online is very quick with the owners & property manager Dan confirming and communicating super fast. It’s so easy. Met Dan at the Cabin for a quick tour. If looking for a great private place on the lake, that has all the supplies of your home, this is it. It’s very clean and comfortable. This time we Kayaked to the nearest island, rented a pontoon boat at the North marina, had several campfires at night, and visited Boothbay Harbor. On our first stay we hiked in Acadia National park and spent time at Bar Harbor. Being from Denver we hope to visit again within a few years.
