Summary: We rented the cabin to be close to UMaine Orono for Parents' Weekend. We arrived at night and the cabin was cozy and welcoming. In the morning we had coffee on the dock watching the fog burn off of the pond. The home is definitely bare-bones, but accommodating and comfortable. The property manager was responsive to my questions and concerns during booking.

Summary: Overall the A-Frame was beautiful and I would stay again! A few things I wish I knew before booking or were more clear at time of booking: 1. there are 0 curtains on the windows or doors, and there are adjacent homes on either side. It's nice to have the peace of mind that comes with closing the curtains at night, so it made our stay a little uncomfortable. 2. The back sliding door to the lake does NOT lock - there is a piece of wood to "jamb" in the track, however, it's not cut to size and you can easily open it from either side - (we tested it). Not sure what the property owner was thinking here - but this also made the stay uncomfortable with the knowledge that at any point someone could easily come in. It would be great if the owner provided the key to actually lock it. 3. There is no drinking water, only pond water to shower and clean with. You must bring your own water to use to brush your teeth, etc. This didn't bother me, but I wasn't aware when I first booked this stay until my partner read the fine print after the booking was confirmed. Two gallons of spring water should be enough for 1 week's stay - not including any water bottles for drinking. Lastly, 4. There is no heat in the winter, only plug-in heaters. This also didn't bother me, but it should be noted for those considering booking here as this info wasn't clear to me in the Vrbo listing. I stayed here early October, and it was cold, but not bad when you layer up and turn on the heater.

Summary: The cabin was remote but not difficult to find. It was on Beautiful Lake George. It was pretty close to Acadia and Bar Harbor. The cabin was clean and cozy. We enjoyed our stay. The loons called frequently which was our reason to stay by the lake. Jim was very nice. He helped us out when we need anything. No TV but who needs one when you are in the wilderness.

Summary: Jim was a great host and communicator during the booking process. The house was very private, well-stocked, and directly next to the water for swimming and other activities. The only slight negative is the location is a bit far if you plan to do multiple Acadia visits like us.

Summary: The cabin was in a very pretty area and fairly convenient distance to either part of Acadia national park (45 min). Everything was clean and ready for us to use and the host was helpful and friendly. We were disappointed to find out after we had booked in the welcome information that the cabin had no potable water and that we needed to buy and bring water for cooking and drinking. The host provided one gallon jug, but we were hiking in Acadia national park and for the price it would have been good to know this beforehand as we may not have booked the property. For the cost of the rental it was disappointing to have this logistical issue, as we underestimated our needs and had to purchase additional water along the way. Also the cabin is quite close to another property. On the Saturday of our stay we were awoken early in the morning (around 6/630 AM) to a work crew removing old shingles on the next door property, cursing and talking loudly enough for every part of their conversation to be heard within our cabin. We were hoping for a quiet getaway prior to having our first child and this, though out of the control of the host, was a disappointing disruption to our vacation. Overall, although it is a cute cabin, the amenities and comfort of the furniture put it a little bit more in the rustic category than we expected with the price point.

Summary: This cabin was exactly as described. It was so close to water you could almost touch it from the sliding door. The host was amazing and helpful. It was a great place to view Maine for the first time.
