Jun 27, 2025 Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Cleanliness, communication #### Lazy Lumberjack Cottage it was a very peaceful area. The use of the canoe to paddle the pond was a bonus. I gave the cleanliness only 2 stars as it was obvious no one had been in prior to our arrival. There were hundreds of dead & live ants. Also piles of sawdust on counters. I mention this only because it needs serious pest control, the ant traps are helping but only slightly. Otherwise I give 4 stars for cleanliness! Strangely the gas stove gas supply was turned off behind the stove. This reads like nothing but complaints but we enjoyed our stay immensely & just feel for the sake of the cottage & business to bring attention to the ant problem. ![Ants in bathroom](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ff4b0177-7152-4e77-afad-7a417be3d0b3-1751056056503.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![ants in bathroom](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/cb03fa92-3901-4da2-82bc-8034c01660a0-1751056056635.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Keurig water container was already cracked when we arrived.](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/051e2a0a-1a52-4856-b135-6dc6e8401e1a-1751056039414.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Eldora P.

Sep 15, 2024 #### Log Cabin on the Pond next to ATV trails Cool spot on the water, the house was spacious and the second floor primary bedroom was comfortable and clean. The dock seemed well maintained along with the fire pit. Wood was provided, stacked near the fire pit. Internet worked great. This property is near some active ATV trails, and we had some unwelcome visitors our last night with 3 loud ATVs out on the dirt road in front of the cabin and trails until nearly midnight. If you love four wheelers - great! If not, then this location may not be for you. ##### Adrian Z. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Phillip O. Aug 14, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A peaceful getaway in the woods. I loved how quiet and isolated this property was! You could hear a pin drop when standing outside. There weren't even any birds to wake you in the morning. The wife and I stayed there for our anniversary week and enjoyed every minute of it. Week cooked in the nice little kitchen and grilled outside once. On the one day it rained, we stayed in all day and streamed movies or watched ones from their small DVD collection. The furniture was very comfortable. Even I at 6'4" slept fine in the smaller full size bed. Would definitely stay again! ##### Phillip O.

Feb 7, 2023 #### Nice cabin, but service from Vacasa was lacking Overall nice little cabin on a beautiful secluded pond. Despite saying wood for the fireplace was provided there was no wood when we arrived. It was October and was only 30°F outside and the tiny space heater was no where near enough. Reached out to Vacasa who didn't even want to put in a ticket for the wood. Also had two of the three kitchen lights out and the door lock battery died so it wouldn't work. So 3 service tickets in the first 24 hours. They only ever fixed the door. So we sat in the dark in the kitchen and bought our own wood. I was told the would reimburse the wood but when I tried texting the local manager i was promptly blocked and none of my messages will deliver. In conclusion a really nice beautiful cabin that was ruined by poor management. ##### Zack V. ### 6/10 Okay #### Trish D. Aug 1, 2025 Liked: Check-in, location Disliked: Cleanliness, communication Place was nice; location and outside of the property and the fact that it was on a pond/lake. It was quiet. Had a nice fire pit outside and the dock with the canoe and paddle board were nice. Outside great!Inside,,, not so much….. if you don’t cook or are not concerned about some of the cleanliness issues, then it would be fine. Negatives:….NO coffee maker as the listing said there would be. They had lots of coffee filters but no pot, only a Kuerig maker with no Kuerig pods. They said they would bring one but did not. We bought a pour-over the next time we went to town once we realized they weren’t bringing a pot. The rest of the kitchen supplies were probably from a garage sales, bad ones. ….the floors were dirty especially the rugs… they looked like they had never been washed, almost black in some spots. Rugs should be washed or replaced. I would not walk barefoot in the place. ….Could not use the washing machine since there was rust in the detergent dispenser. Didn’t want to ruin my clothes. ….No AC, which we knew, but the fans that were provided were really dirty, gross, but necessary since it was hot. Overall I would not come back unless they clean up the inside and provide just a few nice pans and a coffee maker. Outside was wonderful, inside not so much. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/dd541f43-8e5d-4b96-8ed2-8e6146b85f0f-1754001941757.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Water toys, great!](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/67a0745d-7f95-4354-a8d7-bcb97fd3ebe8-1754001930724.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/872ece33-c8e3-4811-aa07-5e31463fabc8-1754001937140.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Nice wood pile](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0a8a51cb-292d-47d5-b474-ff93c8b14123-1754001932401.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Trish D. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Zach Z. Jul 9, 2025 Liked: Check-in, location Disliked: Cleanliness, communication #### Unsafe Property Please be careful booking this property. When we arrived at the rental our first night we were greeted with a strong gas smell throughout the house. There had been a gas leak prior to us arriving. We quickly contacted the host and emergency services. The fire department shut off the gas, cleared the house and instructed that we had a professional come out to evaluate the issue, mind you this was after traveling several hours to the property. The gas concentrations were very dangerous. One flip of the light switch and it could have caused an explosion. The owner assured us that they would have someone come out to house the next day. We never heard from them again. We spent the next several days attempting to cook all of our food on the outside grill. Much of the food we were planning to cook in the oven went bad as we were unable to cook in the kitchen. 3 weeks since our stay concluded and they are still giving us the runaround. I would caution anyone looking into the property if they are looking for a safe rental. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/159f2296-93f8-40eb-9b1c-08be4ca37530-1752065210770.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Zach Z.

The cottage was charming and cozy, with an unusual layout with a loft above the 2nd floor bedroom. The one minor glitch to the trip was having to call Vacasa repeatedly for the access code to the house, which we did not get until we are at the house. ##### Cyd L.

Aug 4, 2024 #### Peaceful retreat The property is beautiful and relaxing. The cabin is very rustic but comfortable. Unfortunately, the temperature was unseasonably warm for the area when we visited. There are multiple fans but they are small. A few larger fans (for these unusual times) would have been nice. Overall, a very relaxing and enjoyable stay. ##### Lisa S.

Kind of wild how quiet it was all the time. Awesome using the boats on the property and cooking in the kitchen was great. Comfortable bed/couch. Only thing was that we experienced some lights up at our windows/skylights that made no sense at all and moved erratically. Freaked us out. No noise and then they disappeared. Crazy! But still a great place! ##### Stephen C. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kerry B.

Jun 22, 2024 #### Perfect Maine Stay This house was absolutely perfect for our stay in Maine! We spent most of our time in and around Bar Harbor, and although this house is about a 45 minute drive from that, it was an easy drive and felt like an amazing getaway from the city. You cannot beat the location on the picturesque Great Pond. It was a breath of fresh air to drink our coffee outside every morning with the view of the water before getting our day started. We felt perfectly safe as two young women staying here, as the house feels just secluded enough but not too much that makes you feel like you are completely isolated. It felt like a "glamping" experience to stay here in that it felt rustic while having all the amenities that you might miss while camping. The only thing I would say is beware that the ladder to the loft is very steep, and would probably not be the best fit for someone with mobility issues or a young child. Overall, our stay was wonderful and I would definitely stay here again! ##### Erin S.

Oct 26, 2023 Liked: Check-in, location Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy #### NO HEAT This would probably be fine in the summer, but should not be rented off season. Original listing had no menu of it being just a summer house/not having heat. Also did not realize it's being listed through a management company. Introductory email specifically said there was a wood stove and wood provided. No wood was there. I went to use the stove and it had a gas insert that i could not get working. I called the help number and the people in Oregon (yes, Oregon!) told me a series of lies and tried gaslighting me saying they told me stove didn't work. The ad on vrbo was magically rewritten less than 24 hours after my first complaint. It was down to 47 the next morning. I slept in my truck 2 nights due to the cold. It was never comfortable in there. Vacasa has totally ignored me. Vrbo has also not been much help. Complaints are being filed with BBB and my credit card. In addition, WI-FI is pretty much non existent, bring your own paper products--including TP, and there's barely enough hot water for one shower. ##### Rebecca S.
