We wanted a location close to Portland with multiple private bedrooms, but still secluded and close to other nature activities, and this checked every box!

The view is really fantastic. The home was very clean when we arrived, which is very important to us. Everything seemed fairly new and in good working order (although we did not try the W/D, as our stay was only 3 days). Easy check-in, with clear communication from the hosts. The pet-friendly option is also of top priority for us.

Great rental for a home base during a Maine trip

Our family of four and dog stayed here for a long weekend. It was a perfect rental for our needs. My only note is that the road up is very bumpy, take it slow- but its worth the drive.

It was a pleasure hosting you, Ann! We appreciate the feedback and are happy you enjoyed your stay! The Maine winters are harsh on the roads but it’ll soon be getting attention now that the snow has melted and warmer temps are on the way. We hope to see you again in the near future!

Great Location

My wife and I had a great week staying here. We loved the quiet location and the proximity to so many nice trails for walking our dog. Being close to Portland was nice and convenient as well. The house is very nice and clean, with everything that we needed for our week. The deck overlooking the lake is a great place to hang out. We will definitely consider staying again.

Winter Break

We enjoyed our stay at this property. Beautiful area with access to the lake. The interior was spacious, clean, and comfortable. Outside there was plenty of room for parking and places to play in the snow. The road is well maintained and easy to navigate even in the snow.

Exactly as pictured

This house was obviously brand new, well maintained, tastefully decorated and thoughtfully stocked. Immaculately clean and host was super proactive and communicative. It's probably worth noting though that it's a cabin not for larger than average sized people and I've never seen so many rules on a Vrbo (am a regular user, like 5x a year). It's all in the fine print so fully disclosed by property manager, just make sure you read it 😉

Thank you for your thoughtful review! We’re so glad you enjoyed your stay and appreciated the cleanliness, decor, and attention to detail in our home. Regarding the rules, they are indeed straightforward and primarily in place to ensure we remain good neighbors and maintain the property for future guests to enjoy. We truly value feedback from experienced travelers like yourself and appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts!

My family had a great time! The house was clean and supplied many things to make our stay comfortable ( hair dryer, high chair, toys, dishes, coffee maker and keurig, washing machine & dryer, grill, fire pit, large outside deck, access to lake, kayaks, canoe & paddle boards and much more). We loved hanging out on the deck and admiring the view. On our last day we saw 2 bald eagles flying overhead. It was a nice, clean and quiet area. My kids and I enjoyed the kayaks and paddle board. My grandson loved swimming in the lake. It was a wonderful family vacation.
