Beautfiul spot with great amenaties. Owner was cery kind and easy to get ahold of if needed. Despite being a little farther out in the woodsy area there is a great shopping mart within 15 minutes drive of the spot which was extremely convenient. Wonderful time, will definitely be booking again in the future.

We had a wonderful time at the cabin! Plenty of room for our family (us parents and our three teenagers) to spread out, and we had everything we needed to make our own meals in the kitchen. Loved sitting on the porch in the morning with our tea and watching the world wake up! Excellent home base for white water rafting in the area - would stay here again.

Winter Wonderland

We had a wonderful time staying along the beautiful Kennebec River. Chris was very punctual with his thoughtful responses to my questions before and during our stay. If you're thinking about visiting in the winter, my only recommendation would be to come with good winter tires or AWD/4WD. The drive is fairly steep and although very well maintained by the plowing contractor, it is tricky when covered in 6". Gorgeous area, we will be back!

A nice option to stay for rafting

It was a nice place to stay for a couple of nights and it was a good value. The check in instructions were confusing but we figured it out eventually. The kitchen (particularly the fridge) was not cleaned before our stay, so I had to spend the first 10-15 minutes cleaning, which was annoying. There were a few weird things-- I had to empty the dryer in order to do a load of wash, there was a bunch of random food in the fridge/freezer. Everything else was fine, beds were comfortable and there was a good amount of space for our family of 5. The view was beautiful and it was close to rafting and some very pretty waterfalls.

A Peaceful Vacay

We decided to go away for Christmas for the first time and I am so happy we chose this adorable home to stay in. The home is out in an area that is not very populated which was so nice. There isn't any Internet which was not an issue for us, although two of us also had no cell service while the other two did. The home is exactly as shown in the pictures which I can say from experience does not always happen lol. I would definitely recommend if you want to just get away from it all.

The owner was very receptive and accommodating when we needed to adjust the dates of our stay. The location was perfect as we were attending a wedding 1/2 a mile away! We had everything we needed as far as kitchen needs and linens, the space suited us well and the beds were comfortable. There were some cobwebs and mouse droppings which I would expect if the place had not been occupied for a while but it had been rented just days before us. The biggest issue though was that there was an overpowering petroleum/kerosene type smell that was coming from the basement. It was nauseating at times, even with the windows open. Had it not been for that, the stay would have been much more enjoyable.

Great location and cozy, rustic cabin!We had a great stay at this cabin—it was in a good location, really close to everything we planned to do. The house has partial views of the lake and easy access to it, with a restaurant and coffee shop just a short drive away. The cabin itself is super cozy, with warm wood interiors and thoughtful decor that made it feel very welcoming. It would have made our stay better if there was a fire pit or space to have a campfire to relax by. Theres also no use of the wood stove inside, although being summer we wouldn't have used it anyway. If we were staying in the colder months that’s a must! The only downside was that the house wasn’t left very clean by the previous guests, so we had to tidy up a bit when we arrived. We did book last-minute, though, so that might have been a factor.Overall, we’d definitely recommend this place to others looking for a peaceful and well-located getaway.

Annual deer camp. Really neat camp. Slept 4 and 5 of us really well. Very impressed by how well stocked the house was with things like linens, paper products and kitchen supplies.The only trouble is access. Its built into a hillside so all entries are stairs. We had snow, which we look forward too but outside entries iced up leaving the interior garage stairs. The stairs inside the garage are narrow and steep. You get used to them but theyre tricky for the older crowd. Listing should note the pictured wood stove is not for use. My group and I burn wood at home and were looking forward to warm up by the fire as we often do after a daybin the woods, but its use was not permitted. Totally get it, most people cant be trusted in a pine camp with open flame.Again, neat spot, very comfortable, met our needs very well. If we hunt the forks again, we'll be back!
