Lovely lake front cottage

Our family of four had a great time at this lovely lake front cottage. It’s equipped with all the basics. We brought two kayaks and explored, swam, sunbathed, fished, napped and made too many s’mores. If you are looking to slow down and connect with your family, this is perfect! We will definitely be back next August.

Beautiful spot

Overall this place is classically rustic and comfortable. It’s in a gorgeous location. Wonderful dock. Comfortable beds and furnishings. My largest concern is that a few things need some simple tlc. The Adirondack chairs on the porch are not functional. There is also black mold growing in the bathroom and a bit in the kitchen. Not major inconveniences but certainly made us congested while there and wouldn’t want to stay there again necessarily. If that issue was resolved it would be perfect!

Great spot to unplug!

Our stay was great - very serene little camp. It's just as advertised and the lake is absolutely glorious. We brought our small Jon boat and were able to carry it into the water. It's best suited to kayaks or a canoe. The cove is protected and offers safe boating for small crafts. There were some pieces of wood with nails and such as you might expect from a camp. No big deal, we moved them and checked the area before having the dog out on his lead. We would definitely go back!

Private and beautiful!

We loved this place and would come again! Amazing beautiful views from the home and out on the dock. We brought our kayaks and explored every day. If you go, take a fan. They had some but we used a box fan in the bedroom window at night.

Location location location

The location of the property is outstanding, this part of the lake is sheltered from north winds by Deer Island, making it feel more like a cove; the water is smoother than further out. The open plan of the home made the interior airy and light. Be sure to feed the hummingbird.

Cozy Cabin on Moosehead Lake

If you want a quiet, off-the-beaten-path location, this is the place for you! The home was right on the lake with a great patio and an amazing view. We were there in October and the fall colors were awesome! The home has all the basic necessities and was cozy. One thing to note: the cell phone service in the entire Moosehead Lake area is pretty limited. It was nice to unplug for awhile, just be prepared to have no to very-limited service!

Beautiful remote location

There is no longer a blue funky refrigerator (seen in online photos) and that's probably a good thing. There were a few glitches, one burner on stove did not work and outside light did not work (probably needed bulb changed). The lighting inside is a bit dim. But on the good side, the bed was comfortable, the heater worked well keeping house warm, and it was very private and quiet. We did actually see a moose on the road in on our last evening there! So that was a big bonus. Thank you.

Very nice and quiet place. We were not disappointed

Trying to find it at dark was a little difficult as we couldn't see the colors os the cabin. We did find it as it has a canoe paddle with the number on it and it says camp. Would definitely rent it again.

Wonderful weekend in quaint cabin

The cabin is adorable, the lake is gorgeous, we had a wonderful time. The only complaints are: no WiFi, which was fine for a weekend, but would get old for longer stays, and the refrigerator/freezer was antique style, which is cute, but not practical to stock food in for a family of four, for any length of time, and being in the middle of nowhere, you really have to do some cooking, also no dishwasher, which is ok for short times, but gets old. Regardless of those complaints, I would still rent this cabin again.
