Cozy, Off-Grid Camp on Spectacle Pond w/ private water frontage!

A cozy authentic Maine camp on Spectacle Pond in Osborn that sits among the hemlock in trees near the waters edge. Enjoy beautiful sunsets, camp fires, swimming, fishing, and kayaking. Relax on the screen porch at night while listening to the loons. Adventure outside the camp to a public sand beach, accessible by foot at the very end of Hemlock Way or enjoy a longer walk to a nearby river. ATV trails are also conveniently located.

This camp features one bedroom with its own deck and a sleeping loft, accommodating up to 5 guests. Although off-grid, there is a gas powered generator to supply water for the bathroom and kitchen. Generator will also power the electric coffee maker and lights. The kitchen is fully functional with a gas refrigerator & gas range that do not require the use of the generator. Kitchen is stocked with basic kitchen supplies. Guest are required to bring their own drinking water.

Spec Pond (as the locals call it) is 16 miles from Amherst, where you will find the Amherst General Store, Airline Brewing Company and other local businesses. This camp is approximately 40 miles east of Bangor, 38 miles from Ellsworth and 58 miles from Bar Harbor.

Available with rental are, 2 kayaks, 2 paddle boards, a canoe, and a paddle boat. Life jackets are provided but guests are encouraged to bring their own for proper fitting. Use of canoe/kayaks/paddle-boards/paddle boat is at guests own risk.
