Write a review
 Just as advertised!, August 23, 2009
By Gail Fallon (Gaithersburg, MD USA)
We enjoyed the woods, the water, and the tranquility immensely. This is an exceptional vacation rental -- we recommend it highly to those who want to "get away from it all."
 
 Get away from it all!, August 3, 2009
By Reynolds (Centreville, Va)
If you want to get away from it all this is the place to be! Very nice house on the water. Very quiet. It's a bit of the "beaten path" so if you intend to visit other area's make sure you check the distances. If you intend on visting Bar Harbor and Moosehead Lake area it's a good "in between" place to stay. Cell phone service limited and no wifi. Nice surrounding property and no close neighbors!
