Beautiful lake side cottage

Enjoy all that lake life has to offer with amenities like restaurants, shopping, and leisure activities nearby. Listen to the Loons and Peepers while relaxing on the deck near the fire. Head to town for dinner and a movie or to check out the local night life/leisure activities. Suits all purposes. The cottage sits up on a little hill. There is a ramp/stairway down to the water so guests can enjoy the water/kayaks etc. Hot Tub is not functional at this time.

Great views! Centrally located.
So, what can I say that hasn’t already been highlighted. The property itself is your a typical Maine lake house. It is close to a few amenities like Hannifords and a few restaurants but not too far from Bangor. The interior is completely updated and is stocked as you would expect with top quality rentals. Views are top notch. And Ben our host is and was extremely responsive. This is definitely a place I would recommend If you’re on the hunt for something off the regular market. A+ listing as described.

Nice spot
We needed a place that would accommodate our dogs. This worked out great. Nice quiet area. Clean, a little off the beaten path, had everything we needed and perfect for our short stay for the UMaine graduation. My only complaints: the water pressure, the sudden loss of electricity (something out of a horror movie) which was not the owners fault and the eyesore next door also not the owners fault. Thank you!

Not happy
This is not a small cabin in the woods by yourself. It has close neighbors and is not really far from everything nor close. It does not have a usable hot tub though when we booked it, it was part of the amenities. Also there is a dock and some very steep stairs that go to the water. Apparently if the area gets rain the dock goes under water and you have no access to the lake. We asked the host to consider giving us a discount of $50 per night for the stay due to the broken hot tub and the dock being underwater giving us no access to the lake. We got the run around for over a month and the host has refused to work with us on these issues with the house. I have never left a bad review but I would not recommend this property.

Getaway
My husband and i had a nice little getaway. The place was clean, quiet with breathtaking views to calm any nerves. We enjoyed ourselves. We were close to anywhere we wanted to go while being off the beaten path. Living in the city this was a nice break from the hustle and bustle.

Perfect location
Great location for easy drives to all of the sights in Maine. Bangor, Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor, Moosehead Lake and even a nice short drive to St Andrews New Brunswick. It is on a pond with great views but the steps to get to are steep and sloping. Can take a walk on the quiet dead end road. Cabin was very clean with everything you would need. Easy communication with the owners. Would definitely stay again.

Resident Loons and Eagle on this Beautiful Lake
This is a beautiful waterfront property that overlooks Hermon Pond, a fun fishing lake. The cottage sits up off the lake for good views. The deck of the cottage is wonderful for bbq and watching the loons and the resident eagle. The cottage interior is simple and complete with linens, gadgets, s&p and papergoods. Furniture it's comfy, bed is very cushy. The view was obstructed but the window is to be replaced soon. Parking is perfect, good airflow and HVAC. Obvious care has gone into this place. Ben and Autumn are wonderfully responsive, exchanging the washing machine and giving us help and instruction when we asked. There was a mouse issue, very temporary I'm sure, because the cottage is very clean. We hope to return next year. Thank you Ben and Autumn for your hospitality.

Great get away with our dogs!
I loved the secluded feel of the cottage! Being able to sit on the deck and look out to the lake was my favorite part about the property. Our dog Stella really enjoyed jumping off the dock into the lake. This cottage was very comfortable and I will absolutely be back!
