ACADIA NATIONAL PARK:
Acadia National Park: In 1913, President Woodrow Wilson set aside 6000 acres (within what is now Acadia National Park) as Sieur de Monts National Monument. With the acquisition of more land and private support and funding, in 1919 President Wilson signed an act establishing Lafayette National Park. In 1929 the parks name was changed to Acadia. Acadia National Park was established to protect the area's spectacular scenic values, Maine's rock bound coast, its coastal and its offshore islands as characterized by the geologic features, natural history and the native plant and animal life. Forty five miles of rustic carriage roads weave around the mountains and through the valleys of Acadia National Park, the gift of philanthropist John D Rockefeller, Jr and family. Rockefeller, a skilled horseman, desired to travel on motor free byways via horse and carriage into the heart of Mount Desert Island. His efforts resulted in roads with sweeping vistas and close up views of the landscape.
Cadillac Mountain: Cadillac Mountain: At 1,530 feet, Cadillac Mountain is not only the tallest mountain in Acadia National Park, but also the tallest mountain along the eastern coast of the United States. Rising high above the town of Bar Harbor, Cadillac Mountain offers magnificent views of the Porcupine Islands and Frenchman Bay.

Summary: Cabin was great for our group of 4. Seating and spaces were perfect.Location is near Ellsworth and Bangor, but not too near.Lake was quite during our stay. Screened in porch was great in the evening. Boat rental option was nice.One note if you have small children stairs and balcony spindles have wider openings than new construction.

Summary: Beautiful cabin and location! The fall colors around the lake made it the perfect fall spot. Less than an hour drive to Acadia and short trip to Bangor for restaurants, but still has that secluded cabin feeling. At the cabin we took advantage of the kayaks, fishing poles, hammock, firepit, and appreciated the welcome goodies. The lake is amazing with crystal clear water. We also hiked up Mt. Baldy nearby for a great view overlooking the lake. The cabin itself met needs well for a family of four. The only downside was that it was pretty cold in the cabin for most of the week. The heat pump didn't really keep up with the low temperatures. Wasn't a big problem for us, but bring plenty of warm/cozy clothes for indoors if staying in October. Overall great experience and we're already thinking about coming back in the summer time!

Summary: Beautiful cabin. Amazing location. Great owner and very responsive. Issues started at checkin. Outside temp was in low 40s. Cabin was freezing at checkin. The whole cabin has one heat pump which is located in living room. This was turned off and heat pumps take a long long time to warm up a place. We got space heaters which kept tripping up the electricity. Terrible sleepless first night which culminated in a phone call to owner who was very responsive and arrived next day. Upstairs bathtub unusable and rusted because of leaky tap. Hot water had rusty odour. Washer worked but dryer was broken and ended up drying clothes by hanging on bannister and chairs. Owner left several nice touches including plenty of towels, drinks/ snacks for adults/children. Amazing yard, lake front and fully equipped with canoes/kayaks and life jackets. The small issues which keep popping up made the stay memorable in a bad way. Wonderful property and great host but multiple issues need to be fixed.

Summary: Everything is as described. I've been visiting Maine on the coast since I was young. But this time, I wanted to try staying on a lake or in a cabin. I don't recall if it was noted, but the house does have a privacy/security gate out to the road that is helpful if you have small children or want to keep your vehicles safe. The water on the lake is crystal clear where you can see fish just by looking down from the dock. Basic paper needs are well-supplied as is the water cooler in the kitchen. A convenient small grocery store is nearby with unexpectedly decent prices (G&M market?). It also has a pizza / sub shop inside along with a Dunkin Donuts if you don't want to make coffee at home. Even on an overcast day, the house and lake make for a great morning! Bar Harbor and other coastal towns are an easy ride south. Traffic can be bothersome, but you have to expect that in the peak season. The kayaks, canoe, and paddle boards were especially convenient and an added bonus. We used them to go to the islands in the middle of the lake and explore. Highly recommend doing that. Just pay attention to the signs indicating the nesting eagle habitat on one of the islands. My only suggestion is to add some sort of ladder on the dock so that the less mobile might have an easier time getting out of the lake. The floating dock did have a ladder which was great! Thanks again!

Summary: Wonderful stay in a well-kept ADK camp style home. Phillips lake is clean and clear. We were provided with a kayaks, canoe and paddle board and water safety gear. The screened front porch is a true treasure. Quiet neighborhood. Mutiple places on the property to sit and relax. Location allows for easy trips to Bangor and Bar Harbor. Very comfortable home for our family and dog. Highly recommend, one of the best rentals we have stayed in over the last 20 years.

Summary: It felt like this house was the perfectl setting for our family to make memories . We ate all our meals on the screened in porch, the nights were game night on the rug, little places inside and out to read! We swam in the very clean lake, and boated to small coves to explore…. or water ski in the big stretches. Look for the bald eagle nest. Easy trip to Acadia and Bar Harbor. Best hosts !!!

Summary: Update log cabin. Great location on the Lake. So many views, places to sit and gather, and relax. Loved the added welcome amenities by the owner. Wonderful place for a peaceful getaway and lots of lake activities. Comforts of home, yet simplicity of cabin living. Would return!

Summary: We had a wonderful, relaxing and peaceful week. The screened in porch was the best for morning coffee, playing games or watching the kids swim! There was plenty of space for 2 teens and 4 adults. The sunsets on the lake are breathtakingly beautiful. Excellent communication with owner. Thank you for a great week
