Get away to the lake in Northern Maine! Located on Lake Ambajejus, minutes from Baxter State Park. Take advantage of all the near by activities such as White River Rafting, Hiking, Fishing, Hunting, Boating, 4 wheeling, swimming, biking, fall foliage, snowmobiling or just rest and relax while you listen to the loons or sit around an outdoor fire! Canoe and Kayak Rentals available from local rental businesses.
My vacation ended early after my dog needed emergency veterinary care due to eating mouse poison the owners left out and accessible to dogs.
This was our second time staying at the property, so we definitely enjoy it. Very private, and great views.
Arrived just in time for a gorgeous sunset. First full day was a washout because of hurricane Lee, and even lost power at one point. Owner kept me updated on status the whole day, which he certainly didn’t have to do, until power was restored. The rest of my stay was awesome, including watching two bald eagles fishing from the rocks right off the deck. Hoping to come back next year!
If you’re okay with a camp style stay, this is it. The view and location was beyond amazing. Literally the listing doesn’t give it justice. If you plan to do Baxter, you’re 20 minutes out which is perfect. House was more than big enough for two of us. Would come back in a heartbeat.
This is a property for those that have stayed in true camps. In short, the location is everything and the accomodations are Spartan but serviceable. The outdoor deck is a terrific place to relax and take in the views, including the calling loons and ducks. Fish eight off the point in front of the cabin or take a swim in the clear water.
Location, location, location! If you are looking for a place to relax and unwind lakefront, this is the place! Andy’s place was spotlessly clean, and we really enjoyed being directly on the lake! We also really appreciated the privacy, and space from other neighbors, Which you don’t always get in lakefront neighborhoods. And he was super easy to communicate with and quick to respond. We would definitely rent here again!
It was our third time at this property. Sadly, the price has almost doubled and the property is starting to show some decline. Still nice and private, still a good stay though
Every year my wife and I rent a place to stay on the water for our anniversary which falls at the beginning of July. This year we chose the spectacular Millinocket region, which I am very familiar with, and were immediately drawn to this property. We have stayed in fancy homes and rustic camps in the Moosehead region many times. We were looking for a camp on this trip and what a camp this one is! Great location and easily accessible to both the town and area outdoor offerings. This camp sits right on the water’s edge which is very rare these days. I literally fished off the deck and caught many fish. Nice dock and a perfect small swim front. We appreciated the “campi-ness” of the place and felt we had all we needed for our stay at the camp. Owner was responsive and easy to work with. If you are looking for a luxurious lake home with all the amenities and without any Maine camp qualities then this is probably not the one for you, but if you want what the locals have for a camp and the experience that goes with it then don’t miss out. Plenty of hot water for showering and doing dishes and a view that will take your breath away as you sip your morning coffee or afternoon cocktail on the sunny front deck. We are already looking forward to renting this place again several times in the years to come. Thanks for a great summer stay!
I’ll preface my review by saying that the owner did refund me the cleaning fee, and that November is the off season for this area, and it’s a camp - not a hotel. Pros: - great location with a beautiful view Cons: - was filled with dead and alive house flies when I arrived - Uncomfortable and noisy bed and pillows - many light fixtures didn’t work - outside gazebo/fire place was a mess
Nice spot to enjoy fishing right out your door and for disconnecting( No TV) or reconnecting with your family.
This was a great spot. The deck right to the water was so nice. We enjoyed stargazing and paddle boarding. Loved how secluded it was. Will definitely rent again.
The cabin was basic, but clean and as described. The “follow the lobster signs” system for locating the cabin worked easily. It’s really all about the location, which was great.
As expected. Easy access to katahdin amenities.
The property has a view that just won't quit, absolutely beautiful, secluded and quiet. Directions were great, lead us right to the door. This place is rustic, very rustic. No TV, no internet, completely unhooked, which was just fine with us. I contacted the owner about where to put the trash as I could find no bins outside, and was told to leave it in the house, which I wasn't pleased with, but we did of course. I also informed him that 7 of 8 ceiling lights did not work inside (specifically bedrooms and bathroom) and several more outside during the same email, however, he never contacted me back on that issue, or corrected it, so of course, we made do. I did note that a review from a year ago also mentioned the lack of working lights. I don't think, however, that I would consider this property again. If you are looking for rustic, unhooked, quiet, simple, and secluded, this place is for you.
A very convenient place to stay when visiting and hiking at Baxter State Park. The property is basic, but just right for us.
We all enjoyed our stay at camp, so peaceful! We spent most of our time on the deck enjoying nature and fishing.
Wish the dock was set up. The yard could of been cleaned up better. Original picture of property must of been taken years ago .
