We loved our stay at camp my own! Such a cute and cozy place and perfect for my husband and two dogs. We brought our boat and did a lot of fishing. Lots of small mouth! The place is amazing being right on the water and we loved hanging on the dock. Such a special spot !

We had a great stay, the cabin is older and outdated, but gave a warm cozy feeling. The bathroom is detached in a shed, but all functioned as it should. Would definitely recommend.

Great Sunrises!

I went with a girlfriend and my Jack Russell Terriers. We loved the Sunrise from the deck every morning. We loved everything about the deck. Pine needles do come down fast all day long but there is a leaf blower to clean them off which was very much appreciated. We spend most of our time between the dock, deck and front porch. We stayed a week and hope to come back again.

Relaxing Stay

Such an ideal spot on the lake. Easy in and out with beautiful views and fun things to do. Katahdin was visible with beautiful sunrises. Kayaking, fire pit, protection from a rainstorm. Rustic, yet all necessities provided.

Camp My Own was the perfect place for our family to stay. The atmosphere of the cabin immediately implores you to relax and unwind. The views are magnificent and the lake is pristine. Thank you, Patti, for preserving your family’s cabin and allowing my family to make cherished memories there. We can’t wait to be back 😊

wonderful and happy

We loved the homey feel....the beautiful views....the lake....and the peacefulness of it all. We had such a good time over the last 4 days. It felt like staying at a family's house that we had visited many times over even though we had never been there before. It's not fancy and that was perfect for us. I really will miss it! Even going out to the shed to the bathroom! I hope we can go back again next year.

Bit Deceptive

Upon my arrival it took me over an hour to gain access to the property as the host provided the incorrect keylock combination and was unreachable for sometime, through multiple forms of communication. Entering the cabin I was met with a large pile of sawdust in the middle of the carpet, which the owner told me to vacuum up. There was also a damaged lamp, the shade was torn almost completely in half. There was trash in the barrels in the kitchen and the bathroom. Which by the way is not even located in the cabin. It is located in a shed next to the dirt driveway. The amenities list a washer and dryer, the washer would not spin out the laundry and the dryer would not get hot. In the shower we discovered a very nice men's razor along with soap and shampoo, which we disposed of. It was abundantly clear that the previous guest did not clean up after themselves nor had any kind of property management been by to even inspect the cabin. I say this confidently as there was $20 on the table, I presume from the previous guests use of fire wood. Halfway through my stay the Wi-Fi stopped working, even after attempting to reset the router, we were with out it and any form of cell service for the remainder of our stay. There is one full size bed, a day bed on the screen porch and a pull out couch. There is not a bedroom but a bed behind a curtain. The lake is beautiful.

Review

As the sunrise picture shows, there are some very nice attributes to the camp. A little more description about the camp being what one would and ought to expect for 1950s and 1960s would be helpful. Visitors over age 70 would be advised to understand the primitive nature of the camp and access will lead to some additional challenges; From parking and movement within an extremely narrow driveway with obvious property constraints. The camp is in need of additional maintenance on several fronts. When maintenance is performed, such as that beautiful deck shown to the left, it is done professionally. Some fixtures such as the rusted "sofa" on the deck with no mattress and exposed springs should be removed. Outdoor grill sparker was non-functional, so we didn't try to use it at all out of caution. Believe me when I say I'm trying to be balanced with the review. My family had a camp on this lake for decades. I'm a vigorous, independent DIY'er for my homes; we know how expensive it can be to maintain camps, and my grandmother's experiences to get hers were similar to the original owner of this place. During our time in Maine, we had relatives come in from out of state who rented another property on the lake a short distance up-lake. There was a world of difference; and we both paid about the same price! They hosted family gatherings! In the opinion of this reviewer, this property in present condition is significantly over-priced, all things considered. If you like primitive (and I do; I backpack and take my family tent camping in the Pacific NW every year) you'll be fine, but paying a premium price for the experience in comparison to other alternatives in the area. Bring your sleeping bag and pillow. Support staff and owner were courteous and helpful throughout renting process and closeout, inclusive of prompt refund of deposits. That service is always appreciated. In sum, thank you. WJF.

Not for us

To start it is a step up from camping but i’d rather go camping. My wife and I have rented MANY properties throughout Maine so we have comparisons. My number one problem is I don’t think anyone checks the property after visitors have left. Case in point we went get the cushions so we could relax but the bin they were stored in is not water proof and the cushions were wet, a couple didn’t dry till Thursday. A soaking wet dishcloth on the counter, garbage not brought out to the curb on Tuesday, three bags in the can. The vacuum cleaner and sweeper FILLED with dirt and hair. You are supposed to clean before you leave but the mop still had packaging on it so how did the previous people mop? The owners are not inspecting what they expect. The furniture was worn which is one thing but terribly dirty! As far as six people, good luck. Oh, and it is NOT safe for young children and the electrical outlets are overloaded, a serious hazard. OVER PRICED! With that said it is a BEATIFUL spot! Great swimming

Great cabin right on the lake

We had a great time. Loved being able to bring the pets on vacation with us. Beautiful spot right on the water. We had a little trouble with bees flying around the deck area. When we would eat outside they would start coming around. Note to people who bring dogs who like to swim- there is no easy access in and out of the water except for climbing on rocks, which made our dogs nails bleed a bit. Didn’t seem to bother the dogs though. There is a grocery store about 20 minutes away which was very convenient. We cooked on the grill every night and had s’mores by the campfire. We’ll be back again!

Perfect Rustic Hideaway

a perfect rustic little cabin on an idyllic lake! We had a wonderful time... the cabin is exactly as it is described... 2 steps up from camping with everything you could ever need. Perfect spots to sit and watch the ever changing moods of this quiet lake. We were early in the season so appreciated the closed in porch for warmth, but also the deck, the dock, the firepit. Nothing like waking up to a picture perfect sunrise in bed! Patti is so responsive and helpful, all the information was clear. A great experience!

Three in a row

This is our third summer in a row at "Camp My Own". Every year just gets better. This year made it special thanks to pat making a week available for our family. With all the nonsense this year has brought.. and spending less time with family... this week together brought us closer than ever... Thanks so much pat again... hope to talk next year. Kim & Terry

About the host

Hosted by Patti Theall

Host profile image
I was born in Milo Maine, just a few miles from Schoodic Lake. Because both of my parents were born here, I was blessed to have spent summers on the lake, as did my children. We moved away when I was 3, to southern NH, but my mother purchased this vintage cabin so we could continue to make memories with be Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, cousins and childhood friends. I host, to help others make memories of their own, as proven by my many repeat renters who return year after year.

Why they chose this property

While sitting on the lakeside deck, you see no other camps, just the 8x4 mile lake, views of Mount Katahdin on a clear day, and the sound of loon.

What makes this property unique

This vintage cabin takes you back to a simpler, less stressful time, where close quarters builds intimacy and we are reminded of the healing power of nature.
