We rented this cottage for a couples weekend with friends. The home was perfect for us as it had three bedrooms so we could each have our privacy but yet be together. Having been life long friends who usually camp together we wanted a place with a few more amenities than a campground. This was the place. The lake side house had everything we wanted, waterfront access, fireplace, outdoor dining and quietness. From a day of kayaking, to watching the bald eagle fly across the lake, to sitting around the fire pit at night it was quiet and tranquil. There is nothing like listening to the sounds of loons calling each other across the lake. We have marked this place as one we would definitely come back too.

We really enjoyed our stay at this lake cottage--It was perfect for our needs! It was very clean, and the cottage had everything we needed to make it a memorable trip (great views of the lake where we were able to dock our 14 foot boat). Additionally, comfortable beds and couches, fully equipped small kitchen, firepit sitting area outside). What my family enjoyed most was the quietness of the area, great fishing and sunrise/sunset viewing from the deck. Also, it was a really easy 10-20 minute drive to Camden/Rockland/Rockport for the ocean beaches, dining and shopping. Owner was very easy to communicate with to answer any questions we had about the area. We would love to rent again next year!

Our group of five loved this cabin—it had everything we needed amenities-wise and plenty of space to hang out in the living room. Would echo other reviews to read the fine-print about not being able to drink the water—we made it work, but something to note before booking. The stove is also an older model and could be updated—was not the easiest to work with when we cooked-in, but the mini-splits were great for staying cool on the hotter days, and the lake is beautiful. Overall super quiet, restful place to stay, and conveniently located if you don't mind driving 25 minutes to Camden or Owl's Head.
