Awesome lake views

We loved the lake cabin with awesome views of the lake. The cabin was tastefully decorated and fully stocked from the kitchen, bathrooms, and basement including canoes, kayaks, and bikes. Only drawback was the neighbors and their dog, and an Unexpected backed-up sewer/plumbing issue. Location was great and would highly recommend!

Lake view retreat

Our family truly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful home with amazing views of the lake. The location was close to shops, restaurants, and activities. It was nice hanging around the campfire at night or for my boys to fish at anytime they felt like it. Plenty of kayaks for the whole family to enjoy and the kitchen was well stocked for cooking meals at home. We hope to come back again someday!!!

Well appointed home

House has everything you will need for a great trip. Lovely home, nice location. Would love to see some comfy Adirondack chairs to look out at the water next time. Deer came through the yard daily. Kids loved catching crawfish and a 3 lb bass right from the dock!

Relaxation at the lake

The week at Moosehead lake was very relaxing and the house lake was very comfortable. The house was close in location to town and we enjoyed the opportunity of walking into town. (Approximately 2 miles) We rented a boat from wild ones rentals and enjoyed the beautiful lake for a few days. The area is great for hiking and enjoying the beautiful scenery. Dinner at Birches Resort in Rockwood, was wonderful!

Perfect, absolutely perfect!

We had an incredible stay for the International Seaplane Fly In...super convenient to town, but also peaceful for kayaking and relaxing dockside with the loons and ducks! The house is perfectly appointed, with 4 kayaks, a canoe, bikes...so much fun to be had! We had a special note with champagne for our arrival, and the living spaces were gorgeous. Can't say enough about Moosehead Hideaway!

Perfection!

The house was clean and inviting, and Scott was so kind as to leave a bottle of champagne and flowers to welcome us! My whole family really enjoyed using the canoe and kayaks. The views from this property are stunning. We loved watching all the seaplanes take off & land, listening to the loons in the early morning, and even had the privilege of watching a bald eagle fly by right in front of the dock one evening. We had a truly enjoyable time vacationing here, despite the inconsistent weather. Would definitely stay at this property again!
