We had a wonderful three night stay here. The lake was beautiful and we were able to explore it with the kayaks that were provided. An absolutely lovely spot with a cute little cottage!
Very cute little cottage with everything you need to have a great time and enjoy natures beauty. Peaceful and clean, i definitely recommend this place!
The host was very helpful when contacted. Super quiet area with very little traffic. Updated interior of the cabin with new appliances. Very clean inside. The picture window for viewing the lake is foggy. Grounds could have been neater and the view of the lake from the deck was partially obscured by a lilac bush. Overall a nice quiet getaway.
The places is comfortable and was well stocked with spices and anything else you need in the kitchen. The view was gorgeous and it was on a nice quiet street.

Very clean cute property on the waterfront! Enjoyed our stay and would love to return again!
We had a great stay. The loons on the pond and bald eagles were a great site while out kayaking. The house had everything we needed. Short drives for necessities but still a quiet place to be. Owner was very responsive.
This place was an amazing spot to rest, and take in great views. The use of the kayaks was a huge bonus. It was clean, cozy, the bed was comfortable, the shower was great, and there were bald eagles and loons to see. Ben was immediately responsive to any and all of my questions. I felt very supported during my stay.
My husband and I really enjoyed this property. The house was small and cozy and had all the amenities we needed for our week in Maine. We really liked sitting out on the porch listening to all the birds in the pond. We hope to come back one day and would love to stay here again.
We had a great stay, house was as described. Enjoyed outside on the deck, and everything we needed was provided during our time there.
Being from Louisiana, August is HOT during the summer. We loved being on the lake!
I loved the secluded feel of the cottage! Being able to sit on the deck and look out to the lake was my favorite part about the property. Our dog Stella really enjoyed jumping off the dock into the lake. This cottage was very comfortable and I will absolutely be back!

We absolutely loved the location of the cottage with fantastic views of the lake from almost every room. It was quiet and we felt safe there. The cottage was nicely decorated and looks to have been updated recently. Gaining access was very easy and customized to us. The owner, Ben, was very responsive to our needs. Would stay there again and highly recommend it!

The directions and entry process were easy to follow and the cute place was very clean for our weekend. We went to Bar Harbor tor the day and went to see James Taylor at the Maine Savings Amphitheater. We enjoyed the short commute home and the welcoming sound of the loons on the pond!
My husband and i had a nice little getaway. The place was clean, quiet with breathtaking views to calm any nerves. We enjoyed ourselves. We were close to anywhere we wanted to go while being off the beaten path. Living in the city this was a nice break from the hustle and bustle.
Great location for easy drives to all of the sights in Maine. Bangor, Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor, Moosehead Lake and even a nice short drive to St Andrews New Brunswick. It is on a pond with great views but the steps to get to are steep and sloping. Can take a walk on the quiet dead end road. Cabin was very clean with everything you would need. Easy communication with the owners. Would definitely stay again.
