A Restful Stay in a Beautiful Area
The perfect spot for our family with children to have to relax and spend lots of time in the water! Close enough to great little towns while also being secluded enough to get a real getaway. We hope to be back!

Peaceful retreat
From the minute we pulled in after a 7 hour drive until the minute we pulled away from this gem (sadly), we felt our shoulders drop and release of stress. Having an extremely stressful year back home, this beautiful cottage was exactly what we needed. The host was nothing shy of attentive, friendly, ( had the pleasure of meeting her), helpful ( made repairs immediately), and an absolute pleasure to deal with. She made us feel welcome through text and immediately responded to my numerous questions even before I booked! I am not only going to miss this beautiful , tranquil place, but I will also miss the sweetest neighbor that joined us every night for hours of stories, history , and lots of laughs. Thank you from the bottom of my entire families heart for all you did for us to make this not only a much needed getaway, but also filling our week with lifelong memories. We WILL be back for certain!!

Amazing getaway!
This property is perfect! So relaxing and comfortable. The host is very accommodating and quickly responded to messages. The fishing and swimming were great. Tons of toys for the littles. A wonderful experience all around. Can't wait to go back!

Nice setting, comfortable lodging, quiet area, trails, wildlife. Perfect! The hosts went above and beyond with their own hens eggs left for us, a welcome basket for the dog, (although he has no teeth so he did not indulge!), And a care package if we forgot toiletries!

Sweet Cottage by the Lake. Awesome Screened-in Porch :)
My friend and I love to just get away with our dogs, from the craziness of everyday life. This sweet cottage with a screened-in porch was just what we needed. The owners cottage is so warm and inviting. Loved that we didn't have to bring extra towels & linens for us, just some extra for the pups. All our needs were met. Cynara is an awesome host and answered all questions we may of had about the property and amenities. My friend Nancy and I just fell in love with the porch overlooking the lake. This was where we and our pups spend most of time just sitting & relaxing or napping & watching the beautiful sunsets over the lake. So serene. Nancy fell in love with the daybed and I loved the blue sofa on the porch. This cozy porch was our happy place. We didn't even turn on the TV all the time we were there. Home away from Home. Thank you so much to our wonderful Host for sharing this special place with visitors like my friend and I. We hope to come and stay again in the near future. Nancy & Linda & pups from Maine xox

Waterfront getaway in the woods of Maine
Small house tucked away on a beautiful pond in the pristine Maine wilderness. Rural enough to disconnect but close enough to town and attractions nearby. Well kept, reasonably priced, all the amenities of home, and great communication with the host. Would recommend!
