Great Vacation
Stayed for a week and enjoyed every moment. The house was clean and very well-equipped. The location was very private and easy to access. We swam every day. The lake and waterfront were very swimmable, but I recommend wearing water shoes as it can be a bit rocky. Proximity to the coast and Eastport, Lubec, etc, is great. We were very comfortable here. We had our 80-pound dog, Stella, with us, and she approves as well. We would definitely return. Zero complaints.

Quiet retreat
It is a beautiful, peaceful spot on the lake; however, we were disappointed that the dock was not in place, and another issue was not resolved after we contacted the host.

Quite retreat with lots of potential.
What we loved; great house in a quiet neighborhood with no road noise. The view of the lake was stunning, the lake water clear and clean.What we liked; the host’s welcome gift of yummy Bold Coast coffee, nice cookware and dinnerware. What we thought could use improvement; cleanliness of kitchen (personally discussed with host). Communication - host was prompt with responding but shy on follow through. Property description said “swim or boat right off dock”. The dock was not in the water for our whole two week stay. Amenities noted a grill but it was nonfunctional. Kitchen would be better for cooking if there was a set of sharp cooking knives, a cutting board smaller than the carving board, a colander and a box grater. The internet connection for the T.V. Was inoperable. The ceiling fan didn’t work. The toilet seat was loose. The front walkway to the lake for swimming access was unsafe due to overgrown shrubbery and loose stepping stones. The trash can and oven both needed cleaning. Would benefit from a welcome book with instructions such as how to connect with the wifi, check-out procedures, location of nearest grocery store, urgent care, ER, restaurant recommendations, etc.

Peaceful retreat
Troy’s cabin is beautiful and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The lake is literally just steps away from the door, and there are lots of windows and doors that look out over the water. A pair of geese with 3 chicks hung out right next to us, as did a mallard duck. The location is handy to many places downeast. Troy was helpful and even brought us some local coffee. We can’t recommend his place enough!

Nice place in a great location for a restful stay.
I loved looking out at the sunrise over the lake each day! Well located to see the rustic back country of Downeast Maine. The house was nice, though it was evident that animals stay there. The kitchen could be better equipped, and patio furniture needs refinishing. Overall, though, it was a great place to stay.
