Outlandishly Beautiful
As soon as you walk in, the views are amazing. The back deck, is awesome because it rained all day on Saturday when we were there and we did not get wet because the overhang of the loft protect you from the weather. The deck fire pit is tremendous. We had it going all weekend long. Very spacious. Cool pictures on the spiral staircase. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Small college reunion weekend. Lotta fun would definitely go back again multiple times. We are already talking about when we are going back.

Wonderful Weekend Getaway
This was a short getaway with my college-aged daughter to see the beautiful fall colors. From this location we were driving distance to some great hiking trails, quaint towns, and local seasonal fall festivals. The house had everything we needed and more including a shuffle board table, air hockey, kayaks, and canoes. We just needed more time to enjoy all the amenities and plan on coming back.

Family trip to Maine
We had a fantastic stay with our 2 teens and middle schooler. The attention to detail in the house is outstanding and we all had fun playing shuffle board and air hockey, along with fishing and kayaking. Took a day trip to Funtown Splashtown USA and did some shopping in downtown Gardiner. Note the Buffalo wings at The Depot are out of this world!
