Perfect cabin

A perfect cabin on George’s Pond was just the getaway we needed. Very clean and had everything we needed. Close enough to Acadia where we spent many of our days. Communication with the owners was clear, fast, and friendly. Would love to stay here again.

The pictures do not do this place justice. Quiet, peaceful, beautiful view of Georges Pond and not a bad drive to Acadia and shopping in Ellsworth. We will definitely be returning.

Great getaway!

Property was as advertised. Stay was pleasant, hosts were great - close by in case of issues - but none to speak of. Cabin getaway was exactly what we needed and the property was beautiful and serene. Cabin was clean and tidy which is a huge deal for my clean freak (in a good way) partner! This place is on our list if we return to Maine!

Perfect lakefront getaway!

This cabin had everything we needed for a perfect getaway. Nearby Ellsworth has stores for necessities and a variety of great restaurants. We drove to Acadia, Bar Harbor, and other points just south via an easy drive. Comfortable furnishings, well appointed kitchen, and kayaks, along with our own fishing dock. This place was better than any resort! Highly recommend!! y greatantique shopsa

Very relaxing camp

We enjoyed our stay at the camp. It was nice going down on the dock evenings relaxing and doing some fishing off the dock. We recommend any couple that would like a nice place to just kick back and relax to visit this camp. The only small complaint i have in early morning next door there was a yapping dog for about two or three hours every morning

Amazing stay!!

The camp was clean, cozy and comfortable. It had all the amenities you would need. A great view of the water and located near many outdoor activities. My daughter loved fishing off the dock and going kayaking. The water was crystal clear for swimming as well. Overall an extremely relaxing stay! The owners were very good at communication and even got us in early the day of check in. A+ experience!!

Our getaway

This cabin, was truly a piece of heaven. If you are looking for a peaceful place to stay, this is it! We enjoyed sitting on the deck, paddling around Murch Island. We were fortunate enough to see 2 eagles and a family of Loons, that we could hear even throughout the night. This was a very enjoyable and comfortable place to enjoy our week! Thank you, for everything ❤️

Beautiful cabin by the lake

The cabin is in a beautiful, relaxing setting. The kitchen is stocked with everything you might need. Best kitchen in any rental we've been in to date. We saw lots of wildlife: chipmunks, otters, eagles, loons, and ducks. My husband fished twice a day. We stayed for two weeks. It was a most relaxing vacation. We would definitely stay here again.

Lovely cabin fully equipped. Easy access from Ellsworth. Cabin sits right on Georges Pond. Fast dependable internet. Had a storm that fried the modem and tower.

25th Wedding Anniversary Vacation

Celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary was important to us in more ways than one. This was our first vacation alone in the 27 years we have been together. We were in search of something special and found it in Franklin Maine. The cottage was the perfect setting for a week of relaxing and reconnecting. The owners were very accommodating and welcoming. We could not have asked for a more perfect place to spend our week. We are already planning for next year.

Loved being on the water

The cabin was great for us. Loved being on the water and seating on the deck. The kayaks were fun. Paddled around the pond which where we live would be called a lake. Georges Pond is beautiful. Saw an eagle and loons. Very quiet. Not too many people on the pond. The cabin had everything we needed. Thanks to the owners for sharing their oasis.

Great waterfront property

The photos depicted the property perfectly. It felt like we were staying a a "Maine Cabin Masters" home. We enhoyed the quiet of the neighborhood. Watched loons and ducks, and an occasional turtle. The screened in porch was our favorite place to view the pond. We used the canoe and had a wonderful time. We liked the location as it was easy to get to Bar Habor and Ellsworth. We would recommended this location to pur friends amd family. We were very surprised about the access to high speed internet services that could easily accommodate remote workers.

Great stay at a wonderful cabin!

My husband and I truly enjoyed our week-long stay. The cabin was just perfect! The loons called to us everyday. We loved using the kayaks. We saw an eagle up close, on the far side of Murch Island, while kayaking around the island. We felt that the cabin location was perfect, not too far from Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor, yet not too close to the crowds. We really enjoyed the Schoodic Peninsula section of Acadia as it was quite less crowded compared to the MDI section. The host of the cabin was kind and considerate. A nice person, for sure! We never wanted for anything. My husband and I highly recommend this rental property!
