Charming little house in a perfect location. We used the kayaks every day. Heard the loons every evening. Very close to town but nice to be a few min away on a quiet lake.

Check in was great. Very accommodating. Very nice outdoor seating, however there were way too many spiders and cobwebs. not just from an overnight spiderweb, but nests underneath the chairs. lots of ants inside. only two windows had screens. There were temporary screens, but due to the style of the windows, when they were installed, bugs would come through the top. lots of ants.

Nice spot to relax

This is a nice little camp with a good layout for two parties. The bedrooms are on either side with their own baths and the middle acts as a common area with a living room and kitchen. There is a little dock in deep water that’s great for swimming. Kayaks are provided and the lake is chock full of good sized bass. We saw loons hawks and even a bald eagle fishing on the lake. If you’re looking for a simple little hideaway close to town this place fits the bill.

A beautiful place. So peaceful and scenic. More rustic than expected but this turned out to be just what we needed. Back to nature and quiet. The views of the lake from every room make this place so special. Kayaking on the lake was soul lifting. The beds are new and fantastic, which meant everything. I would happily return every year.

Easy to find and Judy met me at the house so check in was simple. Once unpacked, we felt at home, so comfortable, easy to relax. I could sit on that deck forever!! Such a beautiful area. Views are stunning, stars at night, amazing! It’s so quiet and peaceful there. Everything you need in a kitchen, though we did not cook while there. Bedroom (with 2 beds) has a HUGE closet, including hangers. Beds are comfortable and plenty of pillows. Having two bathrooms was great too! Check out is just as easy. I was sad to leave and would definitely rent this house again in the future!

Idyllic Stay

Everything was wonderful. We couldn’t believe our eyes when we pulled up to the cabin. The lake views from the large windows were amazing. We loved sitting outside on the deck and on the dock. I went for a swim and the water was amazing. We were so close to Boothbay Harbor and even did several small trips to neighboring towns. Great location. We loved every second and couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay!

My husband and I spent the week here for our one year wedding anniversary and we couldn't be happier. The home is cozy and has a gorgeous view of the lake. With a private dock, it made for the perfect place to take a dip in the water and go kayaking. Not to mention it's only 10 minutes from all the Boothbay restaurants and activities, so needless to say, we really took advantage of all the seafood spots! Additionally, the host was super accessible for any and all of our needs and provided a detailed binder with directions on your stay and nearby attractions.
