Summary: We recently had the pleasure of staying at this incredible river-side cabin, and we can't say enough about what an exceptional experience it was. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by this location's natural beauty and tranquility. The sound of the flowing Carrabassett River and the fresh mountain air instantly put us at ease. It's a paradise for nature lovers, and you can't help but fall in love with the serenity of this place. The cabin itself was a gem. Immaculately clean, well-maintained, and beautifully decorated, it felt like a home away from home. The large windows in the living area allowed for stunning views of the river and the nearby forest, and the cozy wood stove added a touch of rustic charm to the experience. The kitchen was fully equipped, making it easy to prepare meals, and the comfortable beds ensured a great night's sleep. This location is a dream come true for outdoor enthusiasts, with abundant activities to enjoy. We spent our days exploring the nearby trails and our evenings around the fire pit, making s'mores and gazing at the starry night sky. It was an experience we won't soon forget. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. Their genuine hospitality made us feel like welcomed guests rather than tourists. We highly recommend this cabin to anyone seeking a tranquil and memorable getaway. We can't wait to return to this slice of paradise. Book your stay; you won't be disappointed!

Summary: We had such an incredible experience with this rental! Right from the start, Scott was so accommodating and made this such an effortless experience on our end. He was an excellent host and was highly communicative, making sure we felt safe and comfortable at every turn. The house itself was awesome! We stayed for 7 nights and honestly didn’t have one moment where we felt the house was lacking. Tons of space, dog friendly, and truly set up to live in with ease. We cooked every night that we were there and there wasn’t one utensil, type of cookware or appliance that the house didn’t have! Only a five minute drive from Sugarloaf, we spent our days at the mountain but our nights in front of the cozy wood stove! The house was stocked with more wood than you could possibly ever use and it was such a treat for us! The view of the river amongst the snow dusted trees made us feel like we were in a real life snow globe and it was absolutely unreal. The house also has a gorgeous screened in porch which would be perfect for drinking your coffee on outside of the winter months and I hope we have the opportunity to take advantage of it in the future! We’re already thinking about going back and we haven’t even been home for a full week yet - we cannot recommend this rental enough!

Summary: The wheelhouse was a great place to stay! Beautiful setting next to the Carrabasette River and close to Sugarloaf Mountain. Scott, the host, was very responsive from the day I made the reservation. And stayed in touch to make sure we had everything we needed. The house was clean and cozy and well stocked with games and firewood for a nice, relaxed family stay. I highly recommend the Wheelhouse for your next trip to the Sugarloaf area. Can’t wait to go back.

Summary: Yes, there is a reason why this place gets 5 stars (from everyone). You really feel like it’s a vacation, away from it all. We love this place! After last years’ experience, we decided to return for a longer stay. We love the screened in porch and the sound of the river permeating throughout the house. We love the detached outdoor shower overlooking the river (never once showed inside). We love going down to the river after a long day of hiking. We love cooking outside at the detached outdoor patio and sitting by the stone fireplace. We love kayaking on Flagstaff Lake, packing a lunch, finding a private beach, and going for a swim with a view of Bigelow Mountain Preserve. We cooked virtually all our dinners at the house and ate breakfasts there as well. Lunches were packed for picnics on the rocks at the base of waterfalls. There are numerous trails to walk/hike. We enjoyed (easiest to more difficult) the Narrow Gauge walkway (near the house), Moose Loop Pond Trail, swimming holes at West Mountain Falls, Esker Trail, Reed Falls Trail, the Poplar Stream Falls Trail, summitting Sugar Loaf Mountain (after taking the chair lift most of the way), the Burnt Mountain Trail, and the Fire Warden Trail. We also brought our dog and felt very comfortable having him there. He stayed on the main floor. The upstairs MBR was terrific. Bed was very comfortable! I am glad that I brought an adapter that connected an HDMI cable from the TV (already supplied) to my lightning connection on my i-phone and also brought my apple tv box which was easy to connect. The house is incredibly well stocked with most things that you need. In addition, Scott was extremely responsive to any questions / issues we had. We really enjoyed our time here. Thank you, Scott, for sharing your home and the attention to detail to make our stay so enjoyable (including games and headlamps)!

Summary: The house is beautiful. There isn’t one thing you could think of that the house didn’t have for you if needed. From chargers to cooking supplies. My kids enjoyed the board games, legos and the outdoor fire place.

Summary: The Wheelhouse was even better than expected. We spent the 4th of July weekend and enjoyed every moment. Days were spent hiking (many local trails), afternoons spent by the river, and evenings were spent on the screened-in porch. We cooked on the grill every night. The owners truly thought of everything to make the cabin feel like home. Our 6 year old was thrilled to see that there were Legos and coloring books for her to keep busy. We will definitely be back!
