This traditional lakefront cabin located on George's Pond has everything you could want for a quiet, peaceful Maine vacation. Built in 1912, its rustic ambiance has all of the modern-day amenities without sacrificing the experience. Fall asleep listening to the loons sing and awaken to the sunrise watching eagles and osprey feed on the lake. This cabin is nestled amongst tall pines that will take your breath away. George's Pond is a 380-acre spring-fed lake surrounded by glimpses of Schoodic Mountain. This cabin sleeps 6-8 (Queen master bed, 4 twin beds in the lofts, and a double bed on the sleeping porch). We are minutes to Schoodic Mountain and Schoodic Beach which is great for hiking and swimming or a picnic on Donnell’s Pond. Schoodic’s summit is flat with 360-degree breathtaking views over Frenchman Bay and Mount Desert Island. The Downeast Sunrise Trail is a revamped railway with miles of trail for biking, hiking, ATV, or walking (see website for more information) just 3 minutes from the cabin. Schoodic Head is 30 minutes towards Winter Harbor and also part of Acadia National Park. There you will find beautiful hikes, a cute harbor town, and great ice cream and see some more of beautiful Maine. The cabin is 40 minutes to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. There you can hike, mountain bike, shop the island boutiques, dine in Bar Harbor restaurants, go whale watching or grab a delicious ice cream cone. You can also play golf at the famous Kebo Valley course. Pick blueberries on your way home and make a cobbler or relax on the dock. We provide kayaks and life vests. There are multiple bike, kayak, and boat rentals available. Vacation awaits!

    Fantastic cabin with beautiful decor and touches. Loved being on the pond and having coffee on the dock every morning.

    Perfect setting for our week long vacation exploring bar harbor and Acadia. Loved the rustic feel to the cabin and our kids really enjoyed it too. Highly recommend

    A beautiful stay — perfect for adults and kids. Great proximity to Acadia. Our favorite part was the lake and the diving rock!

    This is a traditional Maine camp, so don't expect too much. The property was clean but small. The bathroom is very small, and if there were more than the four of us it wouldn't have been enough. But it is manageable for a week or two. The kitchen is just barely enough to cook basic meals. The kitchen has all of the basic cookware and dishes you will need. Thankfully there is a gas grill on the deck that can also be used to cook meals, and it has the added advantage of overlooking the pond. You'll want to spend most of your time here outside. We also used the gas fire pit almost every evening as the temperatures were quite cool while we were there. The pond is great for swimming, kayaking, or boating. The location is also near Acadia National Park and other outdoor activities. If you are looking for a traditional Maine vacation upta camp then this is a great place.

    George’s pond cabin was a lovely little getaway. The cabin is cozy and clean and perfectly placed on George’s pond. Kids and family enjoyed the kayaks, fishing (sunnies, pumpkinseeds and small-mouth bass abound!). Short distance from everything you need and late August has THE perfect weather. Would recommend for groups who are staying less than a week (not many places to put clothes/belongings, and no washer/dryer to help keep belongings to a minimum).

    Our family of 6 (ages 82-11) absolutely LOVED our stay here. It is a beautiful cabin in a fantastic location. It’s small and rustic which was perfect for us. The kitchen was super well stocked. The stairs up to the lofts are steep but no trouble for our kids. The sleeping porch was a dream. Communication with the host was phenomenal - we had a few needs during our stay and she answered immediately.

    We had a wonderful week at George's Pond. The view from the cabin is gorgeous. The cabin is close to Ellsworth and Acadia but far enough away from the crowds for peace and quiet. We would stay there again.

    We are rustic/nature people. We put this well above amenities and frills. This was perfect for us. Absolutely no frills but an INCREDIBLE location with huge privacy, peace and nature. It was exactly what we we are looking for
