Accommodating
My family ranged in age from 19 to 70 and the property provided the perfect backdrop for all our events and antics. The pond surprised us with two good catches and a few bass. We ventured out and about into the town of Lincoln, Bangor and Aroostook county. We even had several conversations with the neighbors. Thank you for the quick responses to our questions and concerns.

Beautiful Home on the Water
We enjoyed our stay at the lake house. It was so peaceful and relaxing. Home is exactly as pictured and we couldn’t have asked for a better location. Perfectly stocked for all our needs.

Comfortable and Relaxing Remote Work + Fishing
Great wifi for remote work x2. With two of us working remotely either on video calls or doing data-intensive software engineering all day, we appreciated the TWO quiet desk locations and excellent wifi. Kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to prepare meals and loads of spices if you don't bring your own like we do. Coffee and snacks available at checkin were a nice touch, and perfect for our late checkin to buy us time to go to grocery store in the morning. Beds and furniture were comfortable, home was well cared for. We brought our own kayaks and the dock wasn't in yet, but it looked like setup and a good group of boats available. My husband caught fish every time he went out. I opted to just paddle and enjoy the quiet.

Deserves higher than a 5-star rating
The house is amazing. Super clean, amazing view and the owner is very communicative. If I could give a higher rating I would! We would definitely love to come back some day!

Peaceful Maine getaway!
If I could give more than five stars, I would! This beautiful home was peaceful, fully equipped with everything we could conceivably need, and full of stunning views! Our host was extremely responsive and helpful. This home felt very remote and tucked away, but was only a ten minute drive to everything in town, so it was super convenient! The inside living space is on the smaller side, but with an abundance of Adirondack chairs and outdoor seating we never felt cramped! (Even with 8 adults and 2 little ones!) I cannot recommend this house to anyone looking for a relaxing stay with stunning views and comfortable accommodations!

Awesome stay!
This was a wonderful property! The house itself is spacious, cleaned, and well stocked. (When we got there, we wished we had brought a baby gate to prevent the little one from going upstairs, but we found one in the closet!) It’s near enough to town to run to the store if you need something, but feels very relaxing and remote. It really felt like “home away from home” for the few days we stayed. We had a 2.5 year old and 4 year old with us, and they had a blast! (They especially liked watching the little sunfish that hung out around the shore.) The lake was wonderful for swimming, kayaking, and canoeing. The host was very nice and easy to communicate with! Our family would definitely stay here again!

Perfect Maine Lake House!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Little Narrows Retreat! 4th of July week on the lake was something special - chilling by the lake, bonfire, s’mores and watching fireworks. Our objectives for the week were to chill out some days and also take day trips around central and eastern Maine (Baxter state park, Acadia and down east). Lincoln is a perfect location for that. Also the fishing (right off the dock!) was superb. Shaun was a great host - very responsive to our questions and requests. Highly recommended for a family lake house vacation in Maine.

Family trip
Nice, quiet, slice of heaven. Would have liked an easier way to access the water for our 3 year old, but he was brave and jumped in once. Saw lots of ducks, loons, and chipmunks. Shaun was easy going and accommodating. Had a couple hick ups with wiring, but he helped us with that. Had a great family trip!

Beautiful view
We enjoyed our stay. The cabin was very clean, and the view of the lake was really nice. We had a busy weekend and didn't spend a lot of time there, but it was very nice.
