HISTORY The cabin was likely built in the 1930's to 50's and was part of a logging operation. The cabin enjoyed phone service for a while from the Narraguagus Telephone Company, which closed operations around World War II. The cabin phone was made out of wood and the line ran along the bottom of the lake. The cabin was a hunting camp for a few decades. A few deer antlers still hang on the wall. At one point, the cabin had a bear skin rug. A famous Maine Guide owned the property for a about a decade or so. In 1925, he was the youngest guide in the state. This person designed a canoe that is still in production today. Prior to 1980, accessing the cabin involved parking a vehicle and driving a Model T about a mile and crossing a low part of the Narraguagus River. Then after parking the Model T, people carried their gear through the woods to the lakeshore. From there, people put their gear into a canoe and paddled across the lake. Later, after years of logging and new roads, today's access just requires 4 miles of dirt roads and 1/3 mile hike. ## Property amenities ### Beach - On the beach ### Ski - Close to skiing - Ski-in/ski-out access ### Internet - Available in the cabin: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Hob - Paper towels ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 0.5 bathroom - Soap - Toilet paper ### Living spaces - Dining table ### Entertainment - Books - TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Firepit - Outdoor furniture - Porch/lanai ### Pets - Pet friendly - 4 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - Designated smoking areas ### Location highlights - On a lake - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Boat - Kayak - Ski-in/ski-out access - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Hunting nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Swimming nearby - Whale watching nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Unit size: 250 square feet ## Similar properties ![Sun-loungers](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/101000000/100020000/100014900/100014881/44674979.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 900 sq/ft off-grid cabin nestled on Upper Cranberry Lake.
