Great stay at the lake
We loved walking Iggy the Great Pyrenees along the long driveway and swimming in the lake all week. Great kitchen, bedroom and living room with tv for rainy days. Great places to visit and hike and restaurants! Thank You!

Rustic cabin with amenities
My husband and dog spent a lovely week in this waterfront cabin. As a 2 bedroom cabin it is small. I could see a small family (couple and 2 kids) staying in it. There is a futon, but the main concern is a very small bathroom with a stall shower. So that might be difficult with smaller children. Of course, it is all about the lake, and the somewhat isolated setting of the house. Lovely sunset view. This house is described as vintage, and that is appropriate. Outfitted with some vintage furnishings. Lots of room outside to spread out. Sunset view over the mountains. Biggest plus is solitude and water frontage, be aware this is a populated pond with pontoon boats and kayakers. We chose this location as a base to explore Northwest mountain area, and also Mt Washington NH, all within 2 hour drive. Biggest downside has to be the bathroom. It is very small. Which is why I would discourage a larger family. Ideal for 1 couple plus a dog! If you like nature, and exploring this part of Maine is great. Hiking trails are everywhere. Most ponds/lakes had easily found public access.

Emphasis on rustic.
Location was great. Furnishings were old, one recliner didn’t work. The entire place needs a deep cleaning, but it is advertised as rustic. It’s a great camping place and did offer all we needed for our stay. The fact that we were not able to lock the cabin when we were away was a little disconcerting. I would stay again but might plan on bargaining for a better cleaning. Was overall fair for the price.

This was my third time staying at the camp.
I didn’t give the highest score because the propane tank was empty and no backup. The futon was broken very uncomfortable to sit on and couldn’t use it as a bed. For some reason, the lifevest were missing it made it difficult for people to use the canoe and kayak. It seems to me some of the towels were missing from the previous two years. The dock has soft spots on it. It took a week for the owner to respond to my message. I am waiting to get reimbursed for the propane but all in all I will probably be back next year. Hopefully these issues will be resolved. Richard E

We read the listing and knew what to expect, rustic cabin. It’s an old days living cabin and was great! The lot is unmatched with any of of vacations yet! All the frontage and dock was perfect for our boat. If your thinking polished marble go to the Caribbean! This is Maine lake life to it s best! Thank you for the time at your cabin.

Quiet week in a Cabin
Location was really nice, many homes on the Pond but well spaced out with lots of tree coverage so it still felt really private. Water was calm, perfect temperature with only a few boaters each day, everybody waived and was quite friendly when cruising by. The private beach area with floating dock was great, we brought our jet ski to enjoy for the week and being able to pickup people and drop off right at the house was awesome. The ponds boat launch is very shallow so needed to muscle it off the trailer a bit as I didn't want half my van underwater to launch it. Cabin was clean inside and out, there were spider webs around the outside but it's a rustic cabin in a heavily wooded area so nothing that was unexpected or excessive and we didn't find any bugs indoors or covering furniture. Wifi worked well but we did have to reset the modem 2 or 3 times during the week, took a few minutes to power up and it was fine. Photos and description are very accurate, home has everything we needed, furniture and kitchen items are just a bit dated but we had no problems, great little spot for the price and we enjoyed our week 100%. Would definitely recommend to anyone.

Cozy, comfortable, private location! The covered deck, the large outdoor area and beach area were exceptional. The water was beautiful and the perfect swimming spot for humans and dogs :) Communication was as expected, the camp had everything we needed. I’m hoping to book again next year, Thank you!
