Shin Pond Stay
Convenient location close to shin pond village. Small building probably best suited for small parties. Worked out well for me and my hunting dog, I'd stay there again.

Shin Pond
Lovely location on Upper Shin Pond. Beautiful place to kayak. We enjoyed the fire pit and especially the enclosed front porch. Host was very responsive to a leaky kitchen sink issue. Property could use a thorough cleaning inside and out. Otherwise would have given 5 stars

Weekend stay
We stayed for the weekend, it was a great getaway! The cabin was clean & everything was provided as promised! The only issue was finding in the paddles/life jackets for the kayak’s because the shed was falling down, not a big deal though! Perfect get away with great views.
