Excellent swimming and easy shore access for people and dogs, with a canoe for guests to use. The cabin is 600 square feet plus a loft, with large windows and skylights: plenty of natural light regardless of the weather. Situated 10 minutes from the larger town of Machias (pronounced Ma-CHAI-us), the cabin is convenient to a full-service supermarket, several hardware and outdoor supply stores, a handful of restaurants, a hospital with a 24-hour emergency room, and many small businesses. The original cabin was built in 1998 and was very rustic, with no running water or electricity, and recently underwent an expansion (bedroom and full bathroom) and extreme makeover. (Please note that all reviews through 2023 refer to the original cabin and not the renovated one). Photos of the original cabin appear toward the end of the photo gallery. The cabin does not have a television or Internet or exterior lights of any kind in order to preserve the rustic feel and minimize light pollution. It usually receives a decent cell phone signal depending on your carrier, allowing you to use your phone as an Internet hotspot. Dogs that like to swim really love this property, and the water access is very good. But please note the property is sloped, with many tree roots along the path between the cabin and the water, so it is not ideal for people or animals with mobility issues. (And please note -- in spite of the ramp pictured, the cabin is not handicap accessible. The ramp is there for older dogs and people that want to avoid steep stairs.) The access road and our driveway are sand and gravel, and fairly well-maintained. A 4-wheel (or all-wheel) drive vehicle is helpful but not necessary during most times of the year. For those looking for a quiet, secluded, dark-sky experience on the lake, the property will not disappoint. Mid-June to mid-September: we normally have a 7-day minimum, Saturday to Saturday. (Exceptions may apply especially if there are gaps in booking dates.) Other times of year: We usually have a 3-day minimum. Exceptions may apply. Late fall through mid-December: we have a relaxed cancellation policy due to the possibility of a snowstorm that could make our road accessible only to high-clearance vehicles/4-wheel drives. When you make a booking request, please add a brief note to let us know something about you and what draws you to our region of Maine. ## Property amenities ### Parking and transport - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Freezer - Hob - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Wood stove ### Entertainment - Books - Games ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - 2 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - Area rugs in public areas - Front entrance ramp - No lift - Single level property - Smooth flooring in public areas - Smoke-free property - Note from host: Smoking is ok outside;

The freshly renovated cabin felt cozy and had all the necessities to make us feel at home during our week stay. The setting of the cabin is breathtaking with a remote lake about 100 feet from the cabin. We enjoyed swimming, canoeing, and fishing in the lake and didn’t see another person on it during our entire stay. It was the perfect setting for our Maine vacation. Our only regret is not renting it a few more days. ##### Jay S.

I have zero bad to say about this property. We were the first to stay in this all newly renovated cabin. Everything was so functional and nice! Dishwasher, laundry machines, big shower, etc… Very secluded and great place for a family getaway. The beds were so comfy. There are windows everywhere! 369 view of it all. I’m guessing the price might go up but it’s very worth it! Amenities were all there. Easy place to rest your head with luxury feel deep in the Maine woods. ##### Niki B.

Like owning your own lake-saw no one , heard no one. Cabin is a classic w/ cold propane frig and gas stove. Really styling outhouse! Not what you may have experienced in the past. (no outhouse odor) Lake is crystal clear. Great launching point for touring Downeast. I missed Campabello so will return in future for that. Can't wait. ##### John M. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Monica A. 21 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Secluded Cabin When driving up to the cabin I was happy we had taken our truck! The road in would be rough for a smaller car or one lower to the ground. Once at the cabin it was infact secluded, very quite, and absolutely relaxing. During our stay the weather was not the best. It was cold and rainy so having the wood stove was great to keep the dampness and coolness out of the cabin. The out house was obviously just that. Better in comparison to your other options while camping. Between rain we were able to explore the lake in our canoes with an easy paddle. Also the fishing right off the dock is good too! We caught beatiful brook trout and many catfish! We also did some rock painting to add to the ones around the tree on the deck and in the cabin. Finally, town is not far from the cabin should you need to pick up any supplies. Communication with the owner was easy and super responsive to our questions. Over all I would absolutely book this cabin again for myself and family. ##### Monica A. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### George B. 23 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great secluded cabin Very well appointed and newly remodeled cabin with great seclusion. You see no other cabins or people from the wonderful porch and dock. It is small, but ideal for two (there are two twin beds in the loft, but you need to be very careful climbing the latter). Also, ideal place for our golden retriever! She loved it there, with water to swim and plenty of squirrels to chase. The lake is small and stocked only with trout (which are very difficult to catch in the summer, as they are deep in the middle of the lake). I caught only one small one. However, fantastic bass fishing in nearby lakes. I hired a local guide for fly fishing (Bill Robinson with Denny River Camp -- highly recommended) and caught about two dozen bass each of the two days I fished. Smallmouth bass fishing heaven. Helen's in Machias is an excellent restaurant, but not much more nearby (other than great fishing). One drawback with the cabin is very poor internet (to be expected, however, in such a secured area). We were fine without TV but missed being able to surf the web :). Bring plenty of books to read. Finally, Anne was a terrific host! ##### George B.

Photos don't capture the beauty of this place. Inside of cabin is unbelievable. Modern fixtures, incredible ceiling fans, light dimmer on all overhead lights, sky lights, large windows and a beautiful bathroom. I could go on. Fully stocked with everything you need, just bring food. To say my dogs enjoyed their stay would be an understatement. Back deck is gated and a great place for the dogs to chill and dry off without worrying about them. The host, Anne, was super nice and available if needed. No issues with mosquitoes either. Definitely will be returning. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/a84b3661-70af-436c-af7e-da1d86bc2118-1755809888841.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/e3620c9c-26fb-48c0-b34c-c943b6f72b2a-1755809887490.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6bffee8c-f6e6-4502-bd95-882011247d83-1755809886911.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4eb915ea-6791-4690-8925-cdc3549a5af6-1755809985383.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Jim F.

I loved staying at this cabin! I had never been to this part of Maine before staying here. I drove up Route 1 from Portland to the cute little (very small) town of Machias, hooked a right and headed into the woods. The cabin is about a 15 minute drive from town, about 30 minutes from Roque Bluffs state park and also pretty close to hiking in Cutler and the Canadian border in Lubec. The Cabin itself is wonderful. It has a very comfortable queen bed on the main floor and two twin beds in the loft. The oil lamps provided great light and ambiance. The woodburning stove gave me a bit of trouble at first but the owners were very easy to communicate with and I was able to get their help to get everything going. The lake is just down the hill from the cabin and the back-porch has an amazing view. There is no one else around so it gets very very quiet and very dark at night which was a very new experience for a city boy like me. There is only an outhouse, which was odd at first but I got used to it. If you are thinking of staying in a rustic cabin then this is the place! ##### Robert B.

Very clean and tidy cabin for enjoyment inside and outside. We enjoyed games and fully stocked kitchen inside and canoeing and cooking over fire pit outside. Beautiful, quiet and peaceful setting overlooking the lake. ##### Mary G. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2022 ---
