very good people at the management!
Great had by 3 couples at beautiful secluded retreat. Clean, comfortable and plenty to do. Somewhat off the beaten path, but very peaceful and serene. No issues at all.
Mountain Gem provided a wonderful stay for our family! Beautiful view, very well thought out layout and great up to date quality throughout. As a guest who likes to cook, I appreciated the organized and well equipped kitchen. Our family group of six adults fit very comfortably here and asked several times if we could buy Mountain Gem for ourselves lol! Thank you for a great stay
The house was great! We had two families stay and were able to spread out and have space while also coming together in the open concept living/ dining area. The views are stunning and great location to Sunday River skiing- 20 minute drive. The kitchen was fully stocked.
We absolutely loved this property and hope to rent again. Beautiful location, wonderful home, and a lot to do. We loved Bethel as well. We heard a moose in the backyard one night but scared it away when we put on the flashlights!!

Very nice home to stay with plenty of space and bathrooms for a group. The view was amazing. Thank you for a nice weekend away with friends.
My 4 friends and I loved celebrating our 50th birthdays at this weekend getaway to this gorgeous home. The home was absolutely beautiful! The view was BREATHTAKING!
The only negative I could say is that the propane tank on the fire table was empty which was very disappointing. We purposely rented a house with a fire pit and hot tub. At least the hot tub was enjoyable.
We stayed a week at this beautiful and accommodating house in a very quiet and nature—focused area of Maine. The views from the home are breathtaking and the accommodations are so inviting. Everything was extremely clean and stocked with everything we needed. We had three families all with children staying and never felt crammed. We cooked a lot and found everything we needed. The bottom floor was a hit with the kids and allowed separation between adult time and kid time. The hot tub because a ritual for us adults every night. The house has kayaks and we were so thankful for them, it allowed us to enjoy the several ponds/lakes nearby. Christopher Pond was our favorite because of the little beach area, docks, playground, and bathroom nearby. Bethel is within 10-15 minutes and that’s where we ordered out from or bought groceries at. We had lunch at Le Mu Eats and dined at Modern Barn, both delicious. Communication with the host was on point and courteous. They gave us pointers on places to check out. We loved our stay at this cute gem in the middle of Maine and hope to be back there someday.
Spent a couple nights at the Mountain Gem with the boys for a golf trip. It was absolutely perfect for everything we needed. The views were spectacular and we spent time in the back watching the sun go down over a few libations. The deck, grill, and jacuzzi were key! We will be back!
View was incredible. Entryway and Kitchen could have been cleaner, but was not too bad. Good communication with property manager. Overall a very good experience. Would stay here again!!
This house is absolutely gorgeous! The pictures are nice but somehow don’t do it Justice. More spacious than it looks. Very well appointed, everything is top of the line in terms of quality. The view is very nice. We’ve done a few VRBO stays, this was the best one yet. Highly recommend.
We had an amazing time staying at the Mountain Gem! We had a big group of 10. My husband and our infant daughter, my parents, along with my brother and his family of 5. We were all able to fit comfortably in the chalet (with more than enough space).
The bunk room was amazing for the children and also a lot of fun for them.
What really took our breath away was how beautiful the view from the deck was. It was like living inside a Bob Ross painting.
This place has everything you could think of. We felt at home here and we will definitely be visiting again!!
We loved our stay at the "Mountain Gem." The cabin was immaculate and had everything we needed. The sunsets from the back deck were impeccable. We would recommend this cabin to everyone.
