Top Hotels Near Five Islands in Danforth

"My family had a wonderful experience staying at Tim and Amy's VRBO as we visited family nearby in Houlton and Monticello. The size of the VRBO was bigger than I expected, and everything was just really nice, well kept and organized. The landscaping around the property was also amazing. I grew up coming to Maine in the summers and the backyard was idyllic - wildflowers, tall grass, a well manicured nature path into the woods, and some deer. So easy to get into Houlton, lots of privacy, great cooling and heating, nice showers...everything we could have asked for and more. It is a duplex, we had neighbors the first night and we couldn't even tell except for the other car in the driveway. Amy and Tim designed the duplex well with the garage in the middle, so it gives an additional buffer against any sound. We don't get to Maine often, but when we do...no doubt we'll be looking to stay here again. "

"Great property and location. Close to everything, convenient. Plenty of space inside and out. Could use a fire pit and outside furniture."

"Our stay at the rustic cabin on East Grand Lake was wonderful. The 26-acre private island provided a unique and peaceful escape. The lake's incredibly clear water made swimming and floating a true pleasure. Our dogs loved exploring the island, running around, and playing in the lake. The propane stove, refrigerator, and charcoal grill worked perfectly for all our cooking needs, offering the right balance of convenience while maintaining the rustic feel. The island allowed us to fully relax and unwind. Built in 1907, the cabin had a lot of character with refinished floors, skylights, and off-the-grid lighting. Pete, our host, was very friendly and communicative, and his assistance with transportation to and from the island, as well as help with our gear, made our stay easy and enjoyable. One unexpected benefit was the limited cell phone reception, perfect for disconnecting and truly relaxing though may pose an issue if you need to stay fully connected to the internet. In summary, the cabin on East Grand Lake is a great place for a peaceful and charming getaway. Whether you're looking to fish, swim, kayak/canoe, or just relax, it offers everything you need. We left feeling refreshed and would certainly return."

"We stayed over the July 4th week to be near other family and attend some events. The camp was clean, cozy and had everything you could want/need- kitchen was very well equipped with anything you'd need for meal prep, including basics (salt, sugar, oil, spices,etc...). Lots of extra towels, linens, beach towels. Comfortable beds with views of the lake and little balcony off upstairs bedrooms. There was everything you could want for outdoor fun- paddle boards, kayak, canoe, motor boat, solo fire pit, corn hole, etc... We did not use the TV's, but there were tons of movies available and streaming. The communication with Janel was easy and fast. Overall we had a lovely time and hope to go back again soon."
