The cabin and the surrounding property was beautiful and so fun to explore! The cabin was clean and very comfortable. There's plenty of firewood and all the essential kitchen appliances/cookware. We will definitely be back to this beautiful, historic property!

Cozy cabin, quiet woodsy location

We had a lovely stay -- quite a cozy and well-appointed cabin, in an out-of-the-way spot that let us explore the area and just hunker down and enjoy the solitude, as the mood took us. Our host was very welcoming and considerate. A wonderful spot!

Tranquility

Although we were spending most of our time at Acadia NP, peace and tranquillity of the Chalet Cabin was enjoyable. Enjoyed a cozy fire to ward off the fall evening chill and gazing at the stars and the Milky Way is hard to beat.

Maine in the snowy woods.

We loved our walks looking at wildlife footprints in the snow. The cabin was cozy and the drive to the coast one day made a perfect day trip. Loved everything about it: host, property, and location.

This was everything we wanted and more! The host Debbie is fantastic and responsive to any questions we had. She even let us stay late on our check out date ! An endless supply of firewood for the pit and the nature trails are a must see and excellently marked. The small cabin is very well kept and comfortable.

Classic Maine Cabin

We enjoyed our stay at the cabin. The knotty pine walls and wood burning fireplace reminded me of my parents place when I was a kid. It was really peaceful. We had a great time.

Hidden Paradise!

This is a great place to stay if you're looking to enjoy peace and quiet in a true countryside environment. Debbie is super friendly and accommodating; she already had a lot of the things we were worried about needing to bring. You'll have the opportunity to enjoy wildlife, stargazing, and nature in an area with rich history.
