Awanagjo is everything one could ask for on a home away from home. Quiet setting on a lake where you can do as much or as little as you want on a vacation to Maine. Highlight was the hummingbirds. I loved the use of Kayaks. Most of our time was spent hiking in Acadia National Park. About an hour drive to most places in the Park. It was nice to come back to the Cabin after the crowds and traffic encountered in the park. If you like seafood there is multiple places in which to get it close by. I would definitely come back if we ever find ourselves coming to Acadia again in the future. The host is close by and very receptive to any questions you might need help with.

Absolutely adorable cabin perfect for a quiet place to land after a busy day exploring . Close enough to visit the many beautiful sights yet it is not in the busy areas. If you love a country setting this is your dream place. Everything we needed was available. The host was very nice. Definitely would stay again if we make to Maine.

This property had everything we needed for a weeks stay. It was close to many of the places we wanted to visit. Hosts were lovely people who answered questions promptly, and even let us borrow a cooler of theirs for a day trip, since we arrived by plane. Would recommend

It was a very nice cottage. It was located a short walk from Toddy Pond. It was well maintained and comfortable. The kitchen had everything I need to prepare meals. We enjoyed a nice cook-out on the grill.
I found it difficult to locate when I first arrived. It was dark, thus difficult to locate the address. The gravel road into the area had several potholes - so you had to be very careful driving to/from the cottage.

The cabin is your home away from home. It has all the amenities you could think of. It was so peaceful sitting in the screened in porch watching the hummingbirds and seeing the water in the distance. Very clase to Bar Harbor and Acadia.

Great Gateway Stay
Returning to ME for a family reunion. This gave us an opportunity to visit area not seen by my partner and his children.
Cabin was one of the cleanest properties I have rented over the years.
Only disappointment was due to Mother Nature causing change to pond and the access was over run by weeds. Not fault of host at all. We were able to access public area to allow the kids to swim as alternate choice.
