The cottage is a cabin by a lake. The cabin has electricity, a bathroom and a kitchen. Rustic but comfortable. We took the canoe around the lake. Location of the cabin is very quiet. The bathroom is on the main floor so middle of the night trip’s required steps. The bed was soft. That being said we both said we would stay again.

Amazing fishing location!

We loved the cozy cabin! We went in August and it was great. The pond next to the cabin is stocked with bass. We caught and released so many! Highly recommended for anyone that wants to fish.

Very charming rustic log cabin. All the amenities and then some. Spent lots of time on the dock soaking in the beauty of the lake. Wished we could have stayed longer.

Peaceful and rustic

Rustic cabin with most required amenities, comfy bed, spacious for 2-4 people. The dock on the pond is superb. Such a gorgeous spot for coffee, reading or snoozing. Very nice to have kayak etc and paddle around the pond which is super quiet. We rode bikes on the nearby mixed use path which was fun. Easy access to Ellsworth and Acadia. Recommend!

Peaceful retreat

The property is beautiful and relaxing. The cabin is very rustic but comfortable. Unfortunately, the temperature was unseasonably warm for the area when we visited. There are multiple fans but they are small. A few larger fans (for these unusual times) would have been nice. Overall, a very relaxing and enjoyable stay.

Cozy cottage by the lake

We stayed for one night in this lovely, rustic cottage and wished we had more than one day to enjoy the amenities, which was a fantastic lakeside spot with a dock, fire pit, kayaks, and wrap around deck. The cottage was charming and cozy, with an unusual layout with a loft above the 2nd floor bedroom. The one minor glitch to the trip was having to call Vacasa repeatedly for the access code to the house, which we did not get until we are at the house.

Great location and space!

Kind of wild how quiet it was all the time. Awesome using the boats on the property and cooking in the kitchen was great. Comfortable bed/couch. Only thing was that we experienced some lights up at our windows/skylights that made no sense at all and moved erratically. Freaked us out. No noise and then they disappeared. Crazy! But still a great place!

Log Cabin on the Pond next to ATV trails

Cool spot on the water, the house was spacious and the second floor primary bedroom was comfortable and clean. The dock seemed well maintained along with the fire pit. Wood was provided, stacked near the fire pit. Internet worked great. This property is near some active ATV trails, and we had some unwelcome visitors our last night with 3 loud ATVs out on the dirt road in front of the cabin and trails until nearly midnight. If you love four wheelers - great! If not, then this location may not be for you.

A peaceful getaway in the woods.

I loved how quiet and isolated this property was! You could hear a pin drop when standing outside. There weren't even any birds to wake you in the morning. The wife and I stayed there for our anniversary week and enjoyed every minute of it. Week cooked in the nice little kitchen and grilled outside once. On the one day it rained, we stayed in all day and streamed movies or watched ones from their small DVD collection. The furniture was very comfortable. Even I at 6'4" slept fine in the smaller full size bed. Would definitely stay again!

Perfect Maine Stay

This house was absolutely perfect for our stay in Maine! We spent most of our time in and around Bar Harbor, and although this house is about a 45 minute drive from that, it was an easy drive and felt like an amazing getaway from the city. You cannot beat the location on the picturesque Great Pond. It was a breath of fresh air to drink our coffee outside every morning with the view of the water before getting our day started. We felt perfectly safe as two young women staying here, as the house feels just secluded enough but not too much that makes you feel like you are completely isolated. It felt like a "glamping" experience to stay here in that it felt rustic while having all the amenities that you might miss while camping. The only thing I would say is beware that the ladder to the loft is very steep, and would probably not be the best fit for someone with mobility issues or a young child. Overall, our stay was wonderful and I would definitely stay here again!

Our first time in Maine and picked a perfect place for our stay. The cabin has a real rustic feel with direct access to the pond. We had enjoyed canoeing, paddle boarding and fishing. It is a short drive to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. Also, only 15 minutes from the best cheesecake in Maine, MoMo's in Ellsworth.We cannot say enough about Vacasa customer service. They addressed our request promptly and professionally.
