Lake Cabin
Loved this spot. The lake was beautiful. We had a wonderful time even though the weather was bad a few days. The cabin was so cute and decorated very nice. The kitchen was stocked well. We had everything we needed. Loved hearing the loons at night. It wasn't too far from Camden that we visited frequently. I hope to come back there some day.

A sweet and rustic (for this city kid) cabin.
This is an adorable cottage. Slept all 6 of us easily. Very small, but does the job. While not the cleanest of homes, its character and setting are fabulous. The host was wonderful. Responsive and helpful! Even let us use their paddleboard on the lake. Made for some lovely family memories. The only "hiccup" was over laundry. Although the description says that there is coin operated laundry on the property, there is not. There is a laundromat a couple of miles away, with limited hours. It worked for us, but definitely misleading. Otherwise, this was a wonderful place to vacation and I would book this home again!

Great lakeside
Although it rained all weekend we enjoyed a very comfortable stay and visit with friends. All the comforts of home in a lil camp. Being lakeside is a perfect way to relax. Thank you so much

Charming & Convenient Cottage
This charming cottage set right on Sennebec Pond is conveniently located in Union with easy access to the surrounding coastal towns. The house was clean and the kitchen was well stocked for when we cooked with what we found at the nearby Beth's farm stand... don't miss their strawberry shortcake! We enjoyed the sounds of the loons in the evening while making s'mores over the fire pit.

My wife and daughter had a wonderful stay here. The property was exactly as depicted in the description and photos. It was exceptionally clean upon arrival and provided a very comfortable stay. We were able to cook breakfast easily and ate it with a lovely view to the lake. The Common Market grocery nearby was excellent and provided us not only food, but a recommended local mechanic when we had a bit of car trouble. All in all a great vacation...

Inspiring lake and view
Quaint, clean, lovely accomodations and everything in kitchen we needed to make a royal breakfast. We had just come off a schooner sailing trip and we're missing our bathroom and shower. Indeed, home sweet home! Recommend!

Best of both worlds
This was a fantastic rental for the type of vacation we were looking for. As a graduation present for our son who loves to fish, we were able to keep our 14 foot boat right on the dock. Great fishing and boating on this beautiful lake! The lake house was very clean, comfortable and had all the amenities we were looking for. Gorgeous views of the lake, quiet area, nice place for an outdoor fire. What I enjoyed most was that we were able to have peaceful days on the lake and then drive only 10-20 minutes to Camden, Rockland and Rockport for the ocean. We really enjoyed shopping/dining by the ocean! Couldn’t have asked for a better Maine vacation. Having both the lake and the ocean together in one trip made for countless ways to have fun. My boys and I would love to rent this property again next year!

Peaceful and quiet, about what we expected
We were quite satisfied, quiet and peaceful, a bit out of the way. Overall met expectations and would recommend. Everything worked and the place is quite well stocked. However the bathroom toilet and shower is quite a cramped space, not going to work for big people. Also, read the fine print and bring your own drinking water.
