静かでリラックスした家族向けのレイクサイドキャビン

Thank you very much; we'd be happy to have you return.

Thank you for the positive review; we're so glad you enjoyed your stay. We'd be happy to have you return.

I apologized multiple times for the cleaner's mistake in planning to visit Sun., not Sat. & offered to cover dinner while I called the cleaner. The renter refused; I refunded the amount he asked. This regrettable mistake was clearly on my end. I dispute other comments: I saw no stains on any slipcovers; neither did visitors before or after this one. The upholstery UNDERNEATH has stains (prior renters); hence the slipcovers. Oddly for such a fastidious group, a circular burn mark now mars the table. Empty "nips" of rum were in a windbreaker.

Thank you so much! We're happy you enjoyed this quiet cabin in the woods and hope you consider returning.

True, the cabin has neither cable, fire pit, nor high-tech kitchen; the profile and pictures correctly depict it. We were happy to gain wifi in 2013. Refrigerator was new in fall 2014, dishwasher and disposal work, and Jenn-air range got a new cartridge in 2013. People who enjoy natural settings may be happiest here.

Loons like the fish in the pond, and deer enjoy the woods and long driveway. Privacy makes the cabin a great spot for relaxing, with walks, hikes, lovely gardens, and other sightseeing nearby. The Southwest Harbor Public Library has a great selection, too, for quiet times.

Guilty as charged: I'm particular, hoping all guests enjoy their stay. Marla wrote multiple times yet never asked to arrive early. When her party entered before the contracted time, the cleaner (still working) was distracted from a task. Marla said early arrival is common for her. (Please ask first about early arrival.) As for trash, with Tues./Fri. pickup and a garbage disposal, having renters take one day's trash elsewhere saves cleaners a round trip to the dump (~45 min.). Finding cardboard for 24 cans of beer, 36 (+?) sodas, broken wine glasses, a chair without a spindle, and stripped blind cords disappointed me. I asked about the cords and early arrival; Marla shared her wisdom about rentals.

Oh, dear. My initial email of 2/25/21 mentioned the contract. Gwen wanted 2 weeks; I gave up one of my own and revised contract, which bans fires except in grill (log cabin is in woods). She said all positive things when I called but "forgot" to pay second half after VRBO email, VRBO late notice, my email, and text. She paid only when I called and planned to arrive. I accused no one of theft but asked about obvious 1+" damage on handmade cherry stool. I sent photos of it, candy melted on sheet and chair, & dead flowers. Cleaners said cabin was very dirty; in 90' heat, I told them I'd sort laundry and make beds, so I saw melted candy. Brevity is the soul of wit, so I'll stop.

Oh, dear. I gave up a week so the reviewer could stay two weeks. She "forgot" to pay for the second half of the second week until I emailed, texted, & called. I quote my email of 2/25/21: "I'll ask you to sign, scan, and return that contract." I revised it to cover the second week in July. I called Sunday after 9 a.m. to welcome Gwen and answer questions. Some shade cords are frayed, it's true; other renters scratched the floor near the washer. Locks stick in humidity but have been fine for me. Previous renters should have put out the trash, and I apologized. I accused no one of theft but sent pictures of 1+" chip, dead petunias, and candy melted on a sheet, asking what Gwen proposed. Basics like mayo, ketchup, oil, vinegar, flour, sugar, etc. are here for renters' ease. Cleaners reported a very dirty cabin; given the heat, I said to leave laundry for me, so I saw candy melted on a sheet (and stuck on a chair). I want visitors to enjoy their time AND to respect the furnishings. I wish Gwen had told me about shortcomings when I called or before she left. (A specialist will repair the chip.)

I'm glad you enjoyed your stay.

Thanks for your review; we're glad you enjoyed your stay and hope you return.

We're glad you enjoyed the cabin. Thanks for leaving much laundry done! You're very welcome to return.

Ms. G. signed a contract for 6 people, with a clause that said having more would result in forfeit of the security deposit. She had 7 visitors, so her deposit was forfeited. (I offered to return $100 because the cleaner took some duvet covers to wash). I called to see whether Ms. Gorfinkle had questions or problems and I was available via email. She said she'd post a bad review if I did not return her deposit, and here it is. I welcome renters who keep the terms of the contract. Incidentally, I had bought a new L.L. Bean kayak after Ms. G. asked about renting them.
