Retreat in the pines

Such a great location.. easy to get to NH, the Maine coast and farther North, all within 90 minutes. Secluded in the pines and serenaded by the loons.. doesn't get any better! We really enjoyed our stay and will be back!

Second time- still great!

This was our second stay at this property and it was still great! Owners are friendly and helpful, location is lovely, and it’s fully stocked with supplies you need to cook etc.

Great stay at the lake

We loved walking Iggy the Great Pyrenees along the long driveway and swimming in the lake all week. Great kitchen, bedroom and living room with tv for rainy days. Great places to visit and hike and restaurants! Thank You!

Needed Break...

and this was a lovely place to take it. Thank you so much Chris for sharing your property with me. The setting was beautiful and quiet, which was just what I needed to recharge and get some good reading done. I was pleased to meet you and hope you have a great winter.

In one word, SPECTACULAR.

Heaven may not be ALL like Chris’ cabin, but there is a little bit that is. What a porch, what a dock, what facilities! The water was very nice (all water north of Samana Bay in the Dominican is cold for me, a Caribbean boy). Once you adapted and got into it, you could really stay for as long as you wished. Private, special, wonderful (I’d better not go on, we’d like it to be available next summer!). Elizabeth and Luis

Disliked: Communication

This was my third time staying at the camp.

I didn’t give the highest score because the propane tank was empty and no backup. The futon was broken very uncomfortable to sit on and couldn’t use it as a bed. For some reason, the lifevest were missing it made it difficult for people to use the canoe and kayak. It seems to me some of the towels were missing from the previous two years. The dock has soft spots on it. It took a week for the owner to respond to my message. I am waiting to get reimbursed for the propane but all in all I will probably be back next year. Hopefully these issues will be resolved. Richard E

Relaxing stay at a well-stocked cabin on a quiet wooded pond

We had a very enjoyable at this quiet cabin with great views of the quiet lake. A nice find. This place is well - stocked, with everything we needed, plus lots of extras, such as kayaks, firewood for a lakeside fire, kitchen items in abundance, etc. The owner was friendly and easy to deal with. I enjoyed paddling on the lake in the evening. You can swim off the dock, but the lake bottom is not sandy for wading. Everything in the kitchen worked well, and there was plenty of utensils of all kinds, etc for cooking. Our one complaint was that we could not get on the internet as hoped, and there was very spotty cell phone reception. We just went to the library about a mile away and sat outside to use the internet.The front sliding door was difficult to close - needs a little lubrication. Otherwise we had a great time enjoying the peace and quiet. I would definitely recommend this little gem to my friends (already have)

Check in was super painless. Just walk in and make yourself at home.The facilities were as you would expect in a lakeside cottage. Everything you could need in the kitchen. Toilet and shower stall in bathroom. A small sink in each bedroom meaning you didn't have to hold up the bathroom for someone else if you were just washing up or brushing teeth.Communication with owner was great. Chris was very responsive. We had amazing weather all week and spent a lot of time in the water. My husband and neice did a lot of fishing. The water is SOOO clear. The walk out into water is very gentle but rocky. Bring your swim shoes.

This is a wonderful, very private property with easy access to the water. Communication with the owner was great. The lake was generally quiet, and there were a few days when I was the only one out there on my kayak. The property was spacious enough to take the dogs for a couple walks a day and never have to leave the property. We were thrilled to find 2 organic farms/markets within about 10 miles and didn’t need to venture out further than that. The house was well stocked with everything we needed. The dock was usable but could use a little repair/upgrade. Overall this property provided everything we needed for a near perfect vacation.

Peaceful retreat

It was our 5th time there, I’m sure we’ll be back next year. Couple of things disappointing. The tv didn’t work from the start took 4 days to get it replaced. The dock is in poor shape, the plywood needs replacing, it’s very soft. One of the recliners is in disrepair. Other than that it’s a great place to relax, we will be back.

Sweet Vintage Cottage

This is truly a vintage cottage with a private waterfront setting.The cottage is very comfortable. I was there with my two goldens, plenty of room for them to swim and run. This would be a great spot for a family with young children. My only disappointment: I was expecting a kayak as pictured in the listing.

2024 adventure

Very private location. A great place to relax and unwind. The camp was well stocked with paper products, dishes, pots and pans and plenty of towels and linens. We saw a few spiders but, it's camp! There was spray for those! They even had stuff for a dog. Feeding bowls, a runner outside and a few toys. We loved it here!

Pond, Weather, Location

Loved the pond, weather was perfect for being in the water, location is private & quiet. The cottage needs a few things to be looked at. I left the owner a note. Otherwise we had a perfect 10 vacation on Brettuns Pond. We will be back.

Amazing!

I grew up on this pond and finding this rental was like a needle in a haystack. The place is beautiful and there is plenty of privacy. The swimming area was perfect for our two dogs and my 5 year old grandchild. We will definitely be coming back every year! We are so happy to finally find a place that we can consistently go to!

Get away and gathering

It was our fourth or fifth year renting the cabin. Great place to get away and have a one day family gathering. It was well furnished, the exterior cooking area was great once again. Probably be back next year.

Cozy rustic cabin

Cabin was well stocked with supplies and just about anything you could need. The cabin could definitely use some upgrades including a way of locking the premises, shower losing warm water consistently, and mice definitely being active. Yard had a lot of dog poop that wasn't cleaned up. Overall enjoyed our stay due to location and privacy of the beautiful lakefront property.

Rustic cabin with amenities

My husband and dog spent a lovely week in this waterfront cabin. As a 2 bedroom cabin it is small. I could see a small family (couple and 2 kids) staying in it. There is a futon, but the main concern is a very small bathroom with a stall shower. So that might be difficult with smaller children. Of course, it is all about the lake, and the somewhat isolated setting of the house. Lovely sunset view. This house is described as vintage, and that is appropriate. Outfitted with some vintage furnishings. Lots of room outside to spread out. Sunset view over the mountains. Biggest plus is solitude and water frontage, be aware this is a populated pond with pontoon boats and kayakers. We chose this location as a base to explore Northwest mountain area, and also Mt Washington NH, all within 2 hour drive. Biggest downside has to be the bathroom. It is very small. Which is why I would discourage a larger family. Ideal for 1 couple plus a dog! If you like nature, and exploring this part of Maine is great. Hiking trails are everywhere. Most ponds/lakes had easily found public access.
