Lakefront, dog-friendly cottage with screened porch, firepit, WiFi & lake access

We had a great stay in this cute and cozy cabin with direct lake access. The boat launch is nearby which made it super easy to go pike fishing every day. Then we'd come back to the warm cabin, cook up some steaks on the grill and snuggle up on the little loveseat. The only thing that would have made the stay better is for the windows to have shades for privacy, especially in the bathroom! The owner lives next door and he was around several of the days we were there so you sort of felt like you could be on display at night. The loft is pretty inconvenient since the ladder is very steep with strangley spaced steps. You can't really bring much up with you. We knew there was a loft from the listing so it wasn't a surprise and there's really nothing that can be done to change it but its worth mentioning, especially if you have a fear of heights. Overall, we had a really great stay and loved our time on Lake Messalonskee!

Very sweet cottage steps from the lake. We were greeted with fresh wildflowers and local pastries! The screened-in porch is such a bonus! Communication was excellent. Be aware that the steps to the loft bedroom are quite steep and definitely not suited for children.

Very peaceful and quiet location. Perfect for 2

We had a wonderful and peaceful stay at Lena’s little cabin in the lake. Thank you!

My wife and I are big fans of Maine Cabin Masters, which brought us to Maine for the lake cabin experience. It was exactly what we were looking for and accurately presented on the VRBO site. It was great, even including the ladder up to the loft for bed each night. Extremely good host and good location. We really enjoyed our stay.

I was greeted by the Owner Mark and he was so welcoming and gracious. Showed me around and it was a nice first impression. The cabin was nice with all the comforts. The lake was beautiful and although it was more of an active lake with all its sounds, it quieted down greatly at night. I would certainly come back and chill out again.

Such a nice little spot to relax on the lake.

Was not expecting it to be so clean or have a Keurig. Owner was so accommodating. There were plenty of linens. While there is no AC we were not hot, even in the loft. Although it was hot during the day it cools enough at night with the fans/window to sleep comfortably. If I had to find a downside, I would say the love seat that opens was too uncomfortable for a large adult so bring an air mattress. We loved having the lake to fish or swim and how clean it was! Would certainly stay there again.

Very pretty and peaceful place. Well stocked. You are right next to the lake and there is a fire pit. Nice place to have a little quiet time.

was very comfortable and right on water.wished there were shades or blinds on windows but otherwise very comfy
