Woods, Water & Tranquility

Home Away From Home! (Arrival Date: July 15, 2011)
This home was the perfect place for a family of four (two children 11 & 17) and a Golden Retriever!! There was so much to do at the home that you didn't think about being bored!!! Paddle boat, two kayaks, tree rope swing into pond (kids loved it!!) air hockey table, swimming, enjoying nature, listening to the loons, laying in hammock (watching kids swim) and seeing beavers and fox! We spent a day at Lake Moosehead and took a 4.5 hr steamship boat to Mt. Kineo - breathtaking (1 hr away) We also saw a moose and family of deers on the back roads! The house is modern, fully-equipped, clean, well-maintained. The owner was very nice and helpful. The town is about 15 minutes away for anything you need. It's a perfect place for re-connecting with your family - we had so many laughs!!!! Thank you once again for letting us stay in your home!! We already wish we were back there!!

Family Vacation
I was nervous that the pictures were deceiving and the place was smaller once there. We were not disappointed, dare I say I was even more pleased when we walked in. It was clean and spacious, the perfect getaway. There is a desk that you can read what past travelers say and things to do, this was interesting and a great help. I liked that Anna called to see if we got there ok and called on the last night to see how the week went and to see if there was anything to be improved upon. We were at the lake every morning, it was so private. The water was great to swim in and we Kayaked around the whole lake. I have been to a lot of places like Hawaii,Florida and North Carolina and have loved them but I think this spot was a gem and I couldn't have been more pleased with our first trip to Maine.

LOVED THE HOUSE!
My fiancé and I greatly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home on the lake. We had never visited Maine before and after staying here were thinking about buying a house there. It is so peaceful and relaxing. We were able to take our two dogs (Pomeranian and Shiba Inu) for the week and that was wonderful. We got them life jackets and took them out on the kick boat and other than the wicked sunburn I received it was great! It was a little too cold to swim but we sat out on the lake and put our feet in and just did a lot of relaxing. We went up to Moosehead lake and spotted several moose which was awesome and took the dogs on some trail walks (our little one, the pom, was not really wanting to do all that walking so I mostly had to carry her) but it was really neat seeing all of the different kinds of birds and wildlife. We saw a lot of foxes up near Moosehead and some pretty cool loons on the lake at the house. Also, there were lots of mosquitoes, bring the OFF for sure! We visited Bar Harbor and did not feel that it was too far - we had checked the maps before coming and knew what to expect as far as distance goes but we also enjoy longer rides in the car - we were able to see more of Maine that way. We also went and saw Stephen Kings house which was awesome!! So all in all - we had a great time, the house was amazing and clean and the owners were unbelievably helpful as I had one million questions before we rented their home. Thanks and hopefully we can go up again soon!!

GEORGEOUS
No complaints, the only regret we have is that we couldn't stay another week. We will sure try to return next year. This place is absolutely beautiful! We had a great time playing in the water, kayaking at night (we even saw shooting stars), telling stories around the camp fire which we will never forget and hiking Borestone mountain. This is the best! Date of arrival: August 8, 2009 Benders

Isolated Beauty
Off the beatin' path. Great grocery store in town. Moosehead Lake really nice, Bar Harbor farther than anticipated.Enjoyed the pond alot. Date of arrival: July 25, 2009 Reynolds

Wonderful Time!
we had a wonderful time, both in this immaculate home and playing in the water. We look forward to returning some day. Hint to others: "take the back roads, it's much quicker to most destinations" We don't think we could have found a better place for the money! The peace and quiet were just what we needed to "get away" for some meaningful family time. Thanks again... Date of arrival: July 18, 2009

AWESOME SPOT
The home was exactly as described, only the pictures don't depict the beauty exactly. The scenery is incredible and the home had everything we needed! The owners were responsive, easy to deal with and very welcoming. We created many wonderful family memories here. Sure to return, thank you for a great time!

Best Vacation,
Our family had a great time here,so impressed with everything. peace and quiet sure is nice! we discovered many "out of the way places" that "locals" suggested, be sure to talk to them as they have good suggestions. The water and kayaks were sooo much fun! We'd like to return. Be sure to look for moose in Greenville (maps provided)
