Winter Break
We enjoyed our stay at this property. Beautiful area with access to the lake. The interior was spacious, clean, and comfortable. Outside there was plenty of room for parking and places to play in the snow. The road is well maintained and easy to navigate even in the snow.

Exactly as pictured
This house was obviously brand new, well maintained, tastefully decorated and thoughtfully stocked. Immaculately clean and host was super proactive and communicative. It's probably worth noting though that it's a cabin not for larger than average sized people and I've never seen so many rules on a Vrbo (am a regular user, like 5x a year). It's all in the fine print so fully disclosed by property manager, just make sure you read it 😉

Great Location
My wife and I had a great week staying here. We loved the quiet location and the proximity to so many nice trails for walking our dog. Being close to Portland was nice and convenient as well. The house is very nice and clean, with everything that we needed for our week. The deck overlooking the lake is a great place to hang out. We will definitely consider staying again.

Great rental for a home base during a Maine trip
Our family of four and dog stayed here for a long weekend. It was a perfect rental for our needs. My only note is that the road up is very bumpy, take it slow- but its worth the drive.
