This was our 3rd. time staying in Toni's cabin. We had a great time as the weather was superb, the fish were biting & the swimming was refreshing!The privacy of this cabin is great as well as the beautiful views from the screened in porch or the bedroom deck.The cabin stayed very comfortable due to the Heat pump AC in the living room & master bedroom.The dock can easily fit 2 boats.All the comforts of home but only steps from the water!Toni is a wonderful host. She is very accommodating. She goes out of her way to make sure your stay is all you hoped for!Looking forward to next year!
This was the 2nd. time we stayed at this beautiful cabin. It is such a quiet, relaxing & private place. We had great weather & great fishing too. Swimming & kayaking were also enjoyable! Toni is such a great host! Always replies in a timely fashion ! We had a wonderful time here & hope to stay again next summer!!

Thank you for appreciating the beauty, serenity , offerings, fishing and updated Whippoorwill! You are always welcome.
This is a special place and when all the repeat renters/ friends return I know they've discovered and enjoyed new places to go, sunsets to enjoy, boating and fishing with no one else on the lake, the unique experience of being 35 feet from the shore and paddle boarding to stay fit.
FYI: Tonight is a photographer's dream!
So glad you will again be enjoying this next summer.
Best,
Toni
Peaceful and relaxing. We caught a ton of fish; blue gill, perch, small mouth bass and pickerel. We saw bald eagles, loons and ducks. The cabin had everything we needed. We would definitely recommend a stay if you are looking for a peaceful calming vacation this is the place for it. Thank you, Toni for sharing your beautiful cabin with us!!
We have stayed in a few lake cabins, but this by far, is the best one yet! The cabin is spacious, comfortable & has a real "homey" feel to it!
The weather was in the mid to high 80's but the 2 heat pumps/AC units kept the cabin cool! The cabin is steps away from the water & the view is gorgeous!
We brought our own boat (The boat launch is only 10 minutes by land & 5 minutes by boat!). The bass fishing was tremendous! (Large & small mouth)
Toni, the host, was very accommodating & helpful! She replied to e-mails in a very timely manner!
We had a great vacation & are planning on going back next summer.
This place has it all!!
While Pocomoonshine Lake is not technically a private lake, it might as well be. There are very few houses on the lake itself and the scenery is breathtaking.
Upon arrival, my kids were anxious to get out on the water with the kayaks and canoe, and in no time were catching fish. After getting the boat that we requested in the water, it was all we could do to keep them from asking to go out on the boat.
Relaxing in this cabin was very easy after we all got settled. My wife and I found ourselves drinking coffee every morning on the porch watching the loons and enjoying the view.
While there is not much in the immediate area, it does not take long to get to stores that have anything that you may need. We were hoping to make more trips to the coast, but that did not happen.
As far as cellular service goes, we had no issues.
This was definitely worth the 14 hour drive and we would love to stay here again! Thank you Toni for everything!
This is the quintessential Maine experience! The camp is perfect and Toni is fantastic!
Until next year …

Good stay overall, but not one of our favorites.
Overall we enjoyed our stay here. Quiet, serene, peaceful. Enjoyed many a lovely happy hour on the open deck with the heavenly view of the pretty lake. You are literally 12 steps to the dock/lake from screen porch. Most of the rooms, including the bedroom, looks directly onto the lake with a sweeping gorgeous view of the large lake. Loved the sight and sound of the many Loons and Eagles. Cabin comes with boats to use at a premium rental price...we opted out. Master bedroom is huge and features a very comfy, beautifully crafted cedar log bed, though surprised not king size with all the extra space in the room.
Only needed the bedroom fan most of the 4 weeks, but with the record heat wave that came through on the last night (temps into low 90s), took advantage of room A/C available (had to install ourselves). Used only for a couple of hours during the heat of the afternoon, not needed at night.
Things I need to mention for future renters however. Did not realize the water supply to the house is untreated lake drawn, with only a simple sediment filter (that needed to be replaced). Housekeeper left us one gallon of bottled water, but with use for drinking, coffee, tea, beverages, cooking...we were going through one gallon a day per person. Buy and bring gallons before you arrive, you will need it. A bit of clutter in the house with too much stuff, but livable. Could not use master bedroom closet due to strong mothball smell, used guest closet as alternative. Kitchen was a strange hodgepodge of mismatched dishes, pot/pans, cups and utensils...but after some good cleaning and organizing...we made it work.
DO realize you are in a woods cabin in the wilderness. You are disconnected from the world. Owner has dish set up for internet and TV with equipment, but has it disconnected. You will need international plan on your cell, since close by Canadian towers will pick up your signal, which is still week. Most times I had to walk outside to get enough signal. There is a TV for playing DVDS only, but the DVD player does not work well, has glitches when playing it. No radio here either, except old one that can't pick anything up.
Do not expect spotlessly clean conditions here, though important things were clean enough. Cabin is old and showing it's age in many ways.
Otherwise, this is a peaceful retreat from the world.
We enjoyed the quiet, relaxing atmosphere. We caught lots of fish and loved seeing the beavers swimming, especially the one right by the dock! The loons and eagles were beautiful The weather was perfect, little bit of rain in the evening and hot during the day. The lake did not have many people on it and we like it that way. Perfect quiet, laid back get away!
My husband and I loved it. The cottage is perfect. We fished every day and caught a bunch, small mouth bass, white perch, (right off the pier) blue gill and large mouth bass and even an eel. We loved seeing the loons, bald eagles and turtles. Very quiet and peaceful. Short drive to get fresh seafood. We loved it. Thank you for sharing your cottage with us. We feel blessed to be able to experience it.

Thank you for writing such a nice review.
I’m so happy you had great fishing and a romantic, peaceful celebration vacation AND were able to see all the nature- The guests who are there this month now also said the loons were singing all night. Safe travels and you are welcome back to the Whippoorwill anytime. Glad you liked all the easy access delicious seafood also and hopefully you also got out in the canoe for a quiet paddle and fishing.
What a pleasure to have helped create such a happy celebration atmosphere.

fantastic!
This place is amazing! My partner and I stay here this past summer and last fall, and the cabin is the perfect place to relax. We swam in the lake and hung out by the fire... plus there are kayaks and a canoe!! So much fun. Recommend highly.
