This was the second year we rent this cottage and we will probably rent it again. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to rent a great cottage on a great lake. The hosts are super about having the things you need to make your vacation special. Special thanks to them for another wonderful stay.

Absolutely love!!

This place was AMAZING. We will absolutely be back - our kids loved it so much, they asked if we can come here every summer from now on. Perfectly located - quaint and quiet but close enough to go to Orono/Old Town or Bangor for dinner or even day trip to Ft Knox and Bar Harbor easily. And I can’t say enough about the camp - all the amenities you need but still with cozy lake comfort.

Paradise

Eagles, Mergansers and Loons oh my! This property was exquisite. If we didn’t live so far away it would be our forever vacation stay. We tried hard to find something the cottage was missing but that turned out to be impossible. We spent countless hours on the dock, on the porch and just sitting in the yard. The lake is beautiful. As the sun sets to the right, the moon is rising to the left. Best of both worlds. Our heartfelt thanks to the owners for sharing their piece of heaven on earth.

Perfect spot to relax

We all enjoyed the beautiful spot right on the water. The camp was clean and had everything we needed or wanted plus thoughtful extras (bottled water and Netflix). The hammock was a favorite spot! We will definitely be back!

Going Above and Beyond

We have stayed at many vacation rentals over the years. This was by far, the best experience we have had. The host (Ethan) when above and beyond in providing everything we could possibly need. In addition, the property was perfect for us. It was a wonderful place to get away and unwind.

Great Lake Avon experience

My family and I had a wonderful time staying on this cabin on Lake Pushaw! The cabin has everything you could need and more. We enjoyed fishing, boating and swimming in the beautiful lake. Sitting on the dock in the sun, napping in the hammock and eating s’mores around the fire at night was so relaxing!

Lazy lake time!

Enjoyed our stay on Pushaw Lake! Cozy and relaxing! Didn’t see as much sun as we’d hope but totally made the best of it by exploring the beautiful region and all of it’s glory! Nature and good food and drinks reign in the region! Our pup loved it too-very dog friendly area!

Cute Quaint Lake Cabin

Owners thought of everything to make our stay comfortable and complete. The on the lake view is beautiful and relaxing. Biggest surprise was using the canoe to catch at least 15 small mouth bass. We're booking a full week next year!

Perfect Lake House

This place is great. Our third, but definitely not our last year here. Ethan is an incredible host. The cabin has the perfect mix of modern comfort and old school lake house. The fishing on Pushaw lake is great. There is always fun to be had in Old Town, Bangor, Orono and the surrounding towns. We love this place.

Perfect spot!

This cottage is a little slice of heaven. The location is perfect if your looking to do some fishing, boating, or just relaxing. We had a great time on the kayaks and caught a fair ammount of large and small mouths. The cottage is extremely well provisioned, and you need only bring clothes and some food. Will certainly be back again!

Slice of Heaven

Everything was perfect. The house was spacious, clean, and well appointed. The host was communicative and there was never a point where we thought, “oh I wish the house had this…” Nevermind the beautiful view, porch, dock, and lake. We enjoyed a few local attractions like the Orono bog walk and farmers market, and ventured into Bangor, but mostly we just cooked at the house while looking at the water. I highly recommend booking here and am grateful to the hosts for sharing their Alice of heaven.

Peaceful Retreat

The cottage is a wonderful place to get away and relax. The property is in a beautiful spot on Pushaw lake. The cottage itself is charming. It is an authentic Maine cabin but with all of the modern conveniences that we are used to. The owners stocked it with everything that we needed for our stay. The owner was very responsive and helpful. We would love to visit again sometime soon.

Great vacation at a lakeside cabin in Maine

My husband and I, 2 kids, and 2 dogs had a blast spending a week here on the lake. Thank you so much for the lovely experience! The kids and pups especially loved swimming and kayaking every day and the view was just amazing! The few minor questions I had were answered immediately. Would definitely recommend!
