"Andy's Place"

A small year round Cottage on Beautiful Whetstone Pond with Majestic Russell Mountain emerging right from the shoreline across from you. Easy access to ATV and Snowmobile Trails. Great Summertime Fishing, sorry Whetstone is closed to Ice Fishing, but good Ice fishing just down the street.

On the Pond in Maine
The cabin was very clean and very well supplied. The property ended where the pond began and the host provided a fire pit and chairs for enjoying the view in the evening. A screen in porch was very nice, too. Wish we had known about the boat landing right next to the cabin.

This a beautiful place to stay. My family and I enjoyed life on the pond. Our stay was short but we plan to come back and visit. Winter or summer at the pond is definitely worth the trip.

The cabin was amazing, the location spectacular. The weather was beyond what we expected. It had snowed a day or two before we got there & made our stay a magical winter wonderland. Will hopefully get a chance to return again.

Home away from home
Stayed here while I was house hunting in the area (found one!) and Wow. This camp was even better than the photos. Clean, cozy, gorgeous views, almost better than home. The mattress was perfect, watching tv before nodding off to peaceful bliss was delightful. Kitchen had all necessities, shower had great water temp and pressure,and the pups enjoyed snoozing by the heater. Thank you for a delightful stay!

Beautiful and private getaway
Andy’s Place is a beautiful, quiet, clean and cozy home. We felt at home immediately and loved the woodstove. We used the kayaks multiple times and cherished our time on the pond, in peace and quiet with the loons. The house was super clean with attention to detail and had everything you might need. It’s a great location, not far from the best hiking in northern Maine. We drove to Baxter State Park one day for hiking and went to Little Wilson Falls on another. We will definitely stay again!

A True Vacation
We love staying at Andy’s Place in Abbot, Maine. The weather for our stay was outstanding and the few remaining loons were a pleasure to observe. The charming cottage has a lovely view of the pond & mountains, especially the screen porch where we toasted every sunset. The kitchen provides everything you need. We enjoyed a few day trips to local sites. We look forward to returning! Thank you, Andy’s Place, for making our Maine visit so perfect!

Andy's Place
Margo and I loved the property! We had everything we needed to make our stay great. Although it rained a lot while we were there we made the best of it. Margo got a lot of great pictures of the loons and one of a bald eagle. We especially enjoyed just sitting in the big rockers on the screened porch and watching loons and the peaceful pond. We did some riding around the area for Margo to get some other great photos. Check in and out was easy. We would recommend to all! Thanks again for our great experience. PS. We just booked a week long stay in august 2024.

We keep coming back
Our third visit to Andy's Place and we keep coming back because it's such a pleasant place to be when you want some down time. This week after Labor Day it was mostly just us and quiet neighboring renters, plus the loon family and a heron who was hanging out to keep tabs on the baby frogs that were coming ashore. The camp, as always, was clean, comfortable, and stocked with everything that we needed. The large screened in porch was a front seat to view the spectacular light show on our last evening there - several hours of "heat lightening" that lit up the whole sky - nature's fireworks! Thanks for everything, Paul and Kelly. We will keep coming back.

We loved the convenience to our family in the area. The camp's decor was very lake and I loved it! Easy wifi access and check in/check out. Whetstone Pond is active with kids which we loved. We had a question once we got there and Paul immediately answered it. We highly recommend the camp!
