    Wonderful remote comfortable cabin. Very clean no odors. Great for our small Shi-poo dog. Stocked nicely with everything you need. Host was very helpful and quick to reply.

    Lack of privacy - the bedrooms have no doors - just curtains; the bedrooms and the bathroom share one open ceiling above them so everybody can hear and smell everything that goes on in the bathroom as well as the bedrooms.

    Perfect Maine lakeside camp with all the amenities you could need for your stay. The beds were super comfortable (memory foam), the heater kept us toasty warm, the furnishings were clean and comfortable and the views were spectacular! A quiet, peaceful location...just perfect!

    I don't always provide five stars for reviews but this is so deserving. Great property and exactly as described. Very clean. Very well equipped for anything you would need and much more. Very responsive hosts. Great neighborhood. Lots to love here! None of us really wanted to leave.

    It is always nice to be at the lake and we did enjoy that but there were several things that were disappointing.The inside of the camp was clean, but the two chairs provided in the living area were very uncomfortable. We arrived on Monday and spent most of Tuesday cleaning. The deck floor and stairs were very dirty and my husband scrubbed them, as well as all the screens and the windows that we could reach. It took an hour and a half to clean the grill that was filthy. We went home and got our chairs to put on the deck.It was difficult getting down to the dock and water. Stairs would have been nice..The dock should be longer with an area so people could sit there. The view of the lake was mostly obscured by the trees. Although we realize you cannot cut the trees down legally I'm sure you could trim at least some of the dead branches. We rent a cottage every year and for the money we paid for this one, it was our least enjoyed. We will not return nor would we recommend it.

    We enjoyed swimming, kayaking, reading, hiking, listening to the loons, playing games and watching movies on the one rainy day we had. We especially appreciate that we were able to bring our dog who also had a great time!

    Great spot right on the lake, True to what was listed. The beds weren’t very comfortable but otherwise everything was great.
