Wonderful Cabin and Host!

We had a great stay with our family. The house is very well stocked and has an amazing location on the lake. Our family enjoyed using the kayaks on the lake, fishing off the dock, and sitting around the fire in the evening. Naomi was a wonderful and super responsive host!

Good week in June

Very nice house inside and out in a quiet wooded area. Beautiful view of the lake from the great room dining area. Well equipped and very clean. Awesome wrap around deck I spent much time on. Grandsons had a great time kayaking to the island and fishing. And a fire pit! The house was clean and fully stocked with all amenities/necessities that you would ever need. The pool table in the lower level was an added bonus..Made the short drive daily to pick up some the best oysters and lobsters in the world.The host was easy to work with and very accommodating.This is one of the best houses we ever rented. We enjoyed every single moment, are so grateful for this experience and hope to return.

Wonderful lake week!

This property is even better than the pictures posted! It was clean, very spacious and well stocked. We enjoyed early mornings on the deck overlooking the water and evening’s making s’mores around the fire. Location was an easy ride to Acadia and other points of interest. No need to travel to Ellsworth for supplies and food as the local market had everything we needed. One of the best properties we have stayed at!

Amazing vacation home

We had a terrific stay at this beautiful home. The house was beautifully decorated and the views of the lake were spectacular. We really enjoyed the kayaks, fishing poles, and the fire pit. With a family of 6 we had plenty of space to enjoy each other’s company but also had enough room to spread out for quiet time. The hosts were very helpful with places to visit even stopping by to offer additional kayaks and fishing poles if needed. They were responsive and accessible and made check-in and check-out a breeze. I would love to visit Maine again and would definitely stay at this home!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this wonderful cabin nestled in the woods of Maine. Breathtaking views of the lake, a beachfront fire pit to enjoy, and lovely, spacious accommodations. Naomi was a great host and communicated easily. I am only giving this rating five stars because six isn’t offered. Loved our stay! ❤️🍁🍂🦞🍷

Peaceful stay with breathtaking views!

We had such a wonderful stay and enjoyed being able to kayak, fish, and swim everyday while taking in the beautiful views. Most nights we enjoyed sitting by the fire and there were many local places to find firewood! The home is gorgeous and we loved the rustic feel and decor. Naomi was very responsive and helped to answer questions I had about the area. There was plenty of space for family dinners! We were all sad to leave!

A Secluded Retreat with Resort-Like Accommodations.

From creating and maintaining the wonderful view of the pond from the wrap around porch, to filling the shampoo and body soap conditioners in the showers, it’s easy to see that the owners pay attention to every last detail. This place is as close as you can get to an all-inclusive stay. It’s just missing a chef. The owners ensure you will have many memory making opportunities with all the amenities for activity they provide. We only stayed in the Summer. It a wonder what the other seasons have to offer.

This property is much prettier than the pictures show, it has everything at the house you could want without needing to leave, we had so much fun, the view is AMAZING! Naomi and her family could not be more gracious hosts! They truly care about you and want your stay to be perfect! The kids had an amazing time, Tidal Falls is a MUST see, we could not get enough of it, we went to Bar Harbor whale/dolphin watching, Acadia park, cadillac mt., ate Lobsters at Trenton Bridge (wonderful people) played adventure golf, shopped and so much more! Had a great week! Looking forward to a return trip in the future, MAINE is a beautiful State!

Perfect, quiet, well appointed home!

My wife and I stayed at the home with another couple and we were extremely pleased with our choice. First, the owner was extremely responsive and provided a home that was so clean and stocked with items that it allowed us to have an excellent six days touring the area. The property was 15+ minutes from Ellsworth and it was a very private site. The home was situated on a rise above the lake with a beautiful view. We thoroughly enjoyed the fire pit down by the lake and wish we’d had more time to enjoy the property. It was everything we had hoped and more. Whenever we had questions, the owner answered by text in a very timely manner. If we are in that part of the country again, that will be our place to stay.

Amazing House on the Pond!

This house was amazing! Beautiful home on the water, everything was sparkling clean, everything you think you need is there! We had a family of 9 and had plenty of space to sleep, eat, play games, and relax by the water. The kayaks were a bonus as was the whole house generator, which was great during a power outage due to a storm. We were about an hour from Bar Harbor and Acadia, which is where we spent most of our days. Closer was Tidal Falls to explore at low tide and Schoodic Peninsula was a beautiful and quiet spot to climb rocks and even picnic by the ocean. Best food: Geddy’s in Bar Harbor for their haddock and the best blueberry pie! Also go to Momo’s Cheesecake to get any flavor of the best cheesecake! We enjoyed the puffin/lighthouse tour with Bar Harbor Whale Watch Co. & Diver Ed’s was so much fun! We truly loved every moment spent together at this beautiful house and would love to return someday!

The views from the house were beautiful and an ideal location on the pond to see the little island where we would see an eagle and loon! The host had well stocked the house with all the necessities. The hist was quick to respond to texts. There were 5 in our group and lots of room. My family thoroughly enjoyed the on-site kayaks and canoes and life jackets! It was our first trip to Maine and the perfect place to enjoy nature and family.
