Summary: Cabin was perfect. Nobody was in the cabins next to us which made our trip so peaceful. Lake was calm with very few boats the entire week we stayed.
Olga B. Aug 22, 2024 09:44:41 PM
Summary: If you are looking for a lake house with private view on the lake - you will love it. Please be aware that the house is old, there is no dishwasher or washing machine for the laundry, there is no AC, no WiFi. It didn't matter to us. The owner left enough towels, it was enough for 4 people staying for 4 nights. Kitchen appliances are working fine. Overall it was very nice vacation. Not far away from park Acadia but private. We enjoyed it.

Summary: Checked in to find full garbage cans, and they were never emptied during our stay. Temps got into the 80’s during our stay and the trash definitely stunk. Had no hot water for the first 24 hours of our stay. Not sure what happened, but eventually was fixed. Location is great. The little beach was perfect for our kids (2 and 7). Enjoyed the fire pit right on the water. Beds were comfortable and there was plenty of space to hang out, but REALLY need to invest in new living room furniture. Chairs are very old and uncomfortable. Liked that we were close enough to a gas station/convenience store if we really needed something. Used the grill - worked great, but was left very dirty and only supplied a scraggly old grill brush. No trash bags were supplied. Only a shower too, no tub, which is hard with a two year old. Overall, good for the price. No difference to the kids which is all that matters….

Summary: Relaxing stay.

Summary: I wanted to really enjoy and relax, for the couple days I was there. The cabin was cute and clean. The location was beautiful. I would have given it 5 stars except, the water wasn’t working…which meant the toilet wasn’t flushing. When I first arrived, someone knocked on the door and said he was called to check the water. I knew nothing about it and was not informed of any issues before arriving, which I told the man as such. He asked to come in to check real quick and I said sure. He turned on the kitchen sink, which seemed to be working and he left. About an hour or so after, I discovered (after using the toilet) the toilet tank was empty and the water coming out of the faucet was a dribble at best. I contacted the support line via text twice and received the same message. They had contacted the local help and someone would be in touch. No one contacted me. I called the next morning to speak to someone and the woman said she has informed the local help and someone would be coming over in an hour or two to fix the problem(this was at 9:00 am). Meanwhile, the toilet, full of waste, brewed a little longer. A couple hours came and went, no one showed. I had planned on going to Bar Harbor to wander around, but thought I’d better stay put in case. Now it’s 2:30 and I’m running out of the water I brought, no bucket around to get water from the lake to try to flush the poo down and my insides were very unhappy and needed relief. So I left a note on the door saying I’d be bask ASAP, although it would take at least an hour, (20 mins to and fro, plus time to get water and use the public bathroom). I got back around 3:30… no one.. they had my cell, no call, no show. I had to buy 8 gallons of water to “flush” the toilet, using 4 then taking the empty containers down to the lake to fill back up and flush again, leaving the other 4 for drinking and dishes and washing and brushing teeth. So, not quite the experience I was looking for. Glad it was just me and my dog, otherwise it would have been VERY stressful. I made it work and left a note for whoever was coming in to clean that I did my best. Just frustrating that no one informed me right away, the guy didn’t really know what was going on either, then no one came to fix it when they said someone would…. Not sure I’d want this experience again.

Summary: It is an older cabin and has the "up north" charm. Great waterfront, great view from the living room. The water pressure is bad. Water spits and sputters, toilet gurgles and roars. We were very surprised/disappointed by this. At this price it should be better!
Michael P. Sep 3, 2022 11:00:44 AM
Summary: The lakefront was totally beautiful. Only 20 minutes to Ellsworth where you can get whatever you need, or go out to eat. Only 40 minutes to Acadia for some amazing hikes. It is a cabin so don't expect a luxury hotel, but it was very comfortable.
Shaun R. Jul 31, 2022 11:01:47 AM
Summary: Property was very clean. All the appliances are in good working condition. Steps away from a very secluded dock and beach. Water is crystal clear and a few steps out you're over your head in the water. The water pressure in the shower was a little low, but having stayed at multiple Maine cabins this is to be expected. Both rooms have a fan with helped with some of the hotter nights. There is a TV, but we never turned it on. Propane grill was filled and cleaned. Plenty of pots, pans, and dishes in the kitchen. Overall a great stay. My wife, dogs, and I had a great time. Thank you - Shaun and Becky
