This was a great place for our Sugarloaf area adventures! Conveniently located to several hiking trails for the Maine 4000 footers, Flagstaff Lake for boating, General store with gas, and a few different restaurants. Try the Looney Moose Cafe for breakfast. Ryan was an exceptional host and his "A" frame home was near perfect. If you want a "silent" place, don't stay, it is close to the road and there is noise to contend with. Block it out - it's worth it. He was great to work with, very responsive to any inquires we may have had, provided easy instructions to follow with check in and check out, using the hot tub (BONUS!), etc. Love the story behind the dream - read the book when you get there. Nicely landscaped, wonderful rear deck to have coffee or a cocktail, firepit and firewood, hot tub, open concept living makes it feel inviting, the stairs to the second floor are steep so watch your footing and use the handrails. Beds were comfortable with plenty of pillows and blankets. Wonderful place for two to four persons to hang your hiking packs at the end of the day, have a hot shower with a nice meal prepped and cooked in the kitchen, soak your bones in the hot tub for a while, and have a restful night's sleep. The home was very clean and comfortable for us. There is no AC but several fans were there to help circulate the air. All in all a great place to stay, so much better than camping, and we would absolutely come back again. Thank you Ryan and family!
