Our stay was phenomenal! We know the area very well. We stayed there with my Mom and our dogs for a long weekend and were so comfortable. We had absolutely everything we needed and it truly felt like a home away from home. It’s clean, comfortable, quiet, and absolutely beautiful. You can’t find a more gorgeous location. The stars at night, the loons calling, the beautiful water with Mt. Katahdin in the background. As a lifelong Mainer I can say that you will experience the very best of what Maine has to offer at this location. We are grateful to have found this place and we hope to return again. The hosts were fabulous. So welcoming, accommodating and kind.
