Cozy, Off-Grid Camp on Spectacle Pond w/ private water frontage!

This cabin is just so special! Repeat visitor because of how wonderful this property is and all the natural beauty that it surrounds it. Jackie's attention to detail and thoughtful hosting makes all the difference. 10/10!

Beautiful location. Get your nature on at this off-grid cabin. Note, lights and plumbing are powered by generator. The fridge and range are gas powered, so always available. The generator is push to start from within cabin - it’s very convenient but does make noise. Oil lamps are provided for evening lighting. Kitchen is stocked with staples for cooking. In-cabin full bathroom with toilet and shower has instant hot water heater that produces warm water. Google maps led us astray for directions, recommend following written instructions from host.

We had a great time in this off grid cabin. It was a beautiful location in a really lovely wood cottage. Our favorite part was just relaxing on the screened in porch listening to the loons in the evening. It got a little hot during our stay, so the limited electricity for a fan was a bummer but not a dealbreaker by any means. Would definitely recommend.

Absolute silence! Our stay at the cabin was near perfect. The bed is comfortable, kitchen stocked, generator full and ready to go. The kayaks, paddle board, paddle boat and canoe we're a great addition. The loons at dusk were heavenly. We thoroughly enjoyed the sliw pace with oil lantern and board games at night.

Wonderful, cozy little cabin with everything you need. Very private and secluded, off the grid with a generator to use for charging and anything else you need. Picturesque and beautiful. Jackie is also a wonderful host who has truly thought of everything you could need in this home. It's clear how much she cares and has put into this property. Would love to return!

Lovely cabin on beautiful spec pond. Very clean and well maintained. Generator is super easy to use. Friendly and helpful host.

Off the grid is exactly what you think it is. This is an awesome little property to unplug and enjoy the middle of nowhere Main on a gorgeous lake

We awoke Thursday morning to the sound of silence, only the crickets greeted us with their soothing call. As it was our last day in this breath-takingly beautiful camp on Spectacle Pond, Paul and I quickly dressed for a final kayak paddle around the shore. The surface of the water was like glass, the only sound the hum of the wind turbines that stretched and twirled like modern dancers on a back-woods stage. Annie, Rachael, Paul and I had a wonderful visit to Jackie’s Hemlock Way Camp, a fabulous and restful stop on our way further east to Prince Edward Island. The beautiful architecture of the camp, connected us with nature, with its pond facing screen porch and master bedroom insuring we always knew what a special spot we had found. I even managed to pull a bike off the car to explore more of Spectacle Pond road. I stopped to visit with Jackie’s sweet neighbors Heidi and Ron who showed me their sweet camp and sent me on my way with a bag of freshly picked blueberries! It was truly a morning in Maine I am not likely to forget!

Definitely loved this location! Off the grid for sure no doubt about that. Property was clean as expected for a camp. Comfortable furnishings and plenty of space to relax inside or outside. It got cold a few nights while staying there but started a fire and it was perfect. But I sure did miss having a fan when it wasn't cold at night while sleeping... Camp had a small fan but it didn't work even after changing the batteries. We brought a box fan but we couldn't run the generator at night so I couldn't use that either. Also lighting was tricky at night. Bathroom has a battery operated one on the was which was super helpful but all the other ones had to be charged or needed batteries (flashlights). Better lighting options would be nice especially after the generator has to be off. We did finally find some under counter lights after day 3 that helped but they had to be charged which was hard to charge when you have to charge everything else with only 2 outlets in the whole camp. We managed but it definitely took a few days to get adjusted. I'm hoping the shower (hot water) situation got resolved. That was not fun showering with cold water. The pond was great. Kayaking on one of the best weather days before the rain came in the last two days we were there. Caught a few fish but never saw any wildlife. I wish would've talked advantage of the beach while I was there but I forgot about it until the last day. If you want a relaxing off the grid trip to escape everything this is it.

This was our 2nd time at Jackie's beautiful camp. We chose to come back.because we were looking for a quiet place with a forest and lakeview away from any city noises. Jackie's camp has everything we were looking for! We loved our stay and thoroughly enjoyed spending a lot of time on the lake (swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding), walking in the area, cooking all of our meals on the gas stove or using the available bbq, and relaxing every night on the screened-in porch while looking at the amazing nature and lake in front of us, watching the stars and listening to the loons. Once again, pure paradise. Thank you Jackie for allowing us to enjoy your camp this summer!
