Kim and Jim have thought of everything to make a stay at their Moosehead Lake home special. The property is gorgeous, and was perfect for a long weekend getaway with friends. Can’t wait to go back!

Kim’s home on Moosehead Lake was everything we could have wanted to celebrate our sons Graduation from college. The location gave us easy access to the lake, Greenville and all the local hiking, biking and exploring we could want. The home is clean, well appointed, very comfortable and has a great layout. A perfect lakeside getaway!

Beautiful place on Moosehead Lake! 4 Nights with family. Kim, the owner was amazing. She kept in contact with me while we were staying at her property answering all my questions I had. She was so prompt and wonderful to rent from. We can’t wait to go back🌞

We wish we could have stayed a couple more nights; the 2 small docks are really nice to relax at. We rented a pontoon boat at Captain Rogers one day to go tubing & explore the north lake and Kineo area. The loop hike at little moose & big moose ponds is excellent—took about 2 hours. We also went canoeing at Hinkley Cove/2nd roach pond. Great takeout from Jamos store back at the house was nice and enjoining the sunsets. Thank you for making your property available!!

What a view! From the deck on the water to the sun room above, we enjoyed a magnificent water view. We watched sea planes and boats come and go. We enjoyed swimming right off the deck, boating and fishing at the state park. We found great souvenirs at the shops nearby and enjoyed evening meals at the cabin and local restaurants.
Kim and Jim were wonderful hosts.

Wonderful home on Moosehead Lake. Property perched with a backdrop of the lake and mountains. Lots of windows to take in the views. House well designed for comfort and relaxation. Easy access to Greenville if need to go to restaurants, supermarket, etc. Property owners easy to deal with and very responsive. Will be back again.

From the minute we stepped on to this property, we were impressed. It is impeccably clean and was a great layout for our family of five. You could have easily slept a few more people. The beds and furniture were extremely comfortable. We spent most of our time outside and in the fantastic sunroom, which has large slider doors turning it into a fancy screen room when they are open. The views of the lake and mountains from this room are incredible. The yard down to the lake is beautifully landscaped, and my favorite part was the dock area, where we spent afternoons having happy hour with the loons. The dock area has two parts. One part is great for storing and getting into boats. We rented two paddleboards from Northwoods outfitters and brought our kayaks. The other part of the dock has a bench swing and a sitting area with stairs that lead into the water, making the lake very accessible for swimming. Kim, the owner, did recommend that we bring water shoes for swimming and I do think that was helpful. We absolutely loved this place so much that we had a hard time leaving it to explore other parts of Moosehead. I definitely will rent here again. Next time for much longer! Kim and Jim are so warm and welcoming and very easy to communicate with. They truly want you to have a wonderful time. I can’t say enough good things about this place!

This stay was truly something special and I cannot mention enough how wonderful Kim and Jim are! I booked Sundown for a girls weekend and it was a trip we will all remember. Despite the last month of rain we've endured, we had such a beautiful time on lake. We were able to swim and cherish all the joys of being in the water and equally enjoyed looking out on the lake during the scattered rain showers. The house is very clean and well taken care of, you can truly feel the love put inside taking care of the home. They had everything you needed inside the home as well as some exciting perks - cornhole & a grill! The enclosed patio with a large dining table was perfect for puzzles and enjoying meals together. The only complaint I have is not having more time here!! The location is perfect as you are very close to town as well as all the scenic attractions. Kim was an absolute delight and only showed kindness and compassion through our entire interaction. The hospitality and all that came with this stay made to be an oasis and home away from home! Out of the 5 years I've spent on a weekend trip to Moosehead, this was truly the best and we can't wait to return!

My wife and I rented this property with some friends for a quiet, new years getaway. We got exactly what we were looking for. The view from all season deck was amazing as we ate and played board games while staring at a frozen lake and mountains. We had a very relaxing and refreshing time.

Let me start off by saying that Kim is a wonderful and caring person! Thank you for sharing your bit of paradise with us ❤️. The house is exactly as advertised, 2 bedrooms facing the lake (1 king, 1 queen), thats all we needed, but there is another bedroom and a bed in the loft, could comfortably fit 8 adults. We did not want for anything, everything was already there.
We (my husband and parents) stayed at Sundown for 6 nights. Went kayaking right from the pier, took the ferry in Rockwood to Mt Kineo for a hike (even the bridle trail was difficult), ventured over to Baxter state park (dirt roads), hiked some of Gulf Hagas and on the 1 rainyish day took a walk thriugh the woods to check out the B52 crash site.
Being close (but not too close) to town made things much easier, ice cream at the dairy bar, dinner at dockside, Kelly's landing and a pizza pick up at Jamos was SO convenient. We found that the Mud Puddle had exactly what we were looking for in tshirts and sweatshirts.
Overall, we had an outstanding vacation, thanks again Kim!

Our 3rd summer stay at Kim's home! We love everything about it, you never know what the weather will give you and the porch with the view of the lake never disappoints!

A group of women I used to work with and I started going to Moosehead over 20 years ago for Girl's Weekend. 3 years ago the place we always went was no longer available and we have floundered to find a new spot. Sundown on Moosehead felt like coming back to the lake!
Sundown is a beautiful, rustic log cabin with all the comforts of home. There is plenty of space inside with a nice deck looking out on the water. The cabin sits up away from the lake providing a great view as planes take off and splash down. We had great sunsets each night and enjoyed watching hummingbirds out the kitchen window.
We swam and played games on the deck and did facials and listened to music and laughed. Thank you Kim and Jim for sharing your piece of northern Maine paradise!

This was our 2nd year staying here with friends at this beautiful home on the lake. We had such warm weather this year we spent most of our time in the lake swimming, floating or kayaking from right in front of the house. We loved hearing the loons every day, and we were treated to a couple of eagle sightings and the sunset views were amazing. We hope to return again in the future!

Wonderful stay
We had a wonderful stay at this property. The views of the lake from the doc were spectacular. The house was spacious and spotless. Property is minutes from the downtown Greenville area. I appreciated the communication with Kim all throughout the booking process and our stay. We plan on coming back in the fall to see the colors and we will check with Kim to see if her property is available.

Beautiful and full of Adventure
We had the most fantastic vacation June 13-20, 2022. This property has everything you need and the most beautiful views of Moosehead Lake.
Kim is a wonderful host, providing clear and detailed information throughout the entire process beginning to end. She was very responsive to my questions and helpful in so many ways.
The house is only about 2 miles to the town of Greenville which has several wonderful restaurants and offers numerous activities. Indian Hill Trading post is the local grocery store and has some of the nicest people working there.
We spent our time hiking including Moxie Falls and the very challenging but rewarding hike to the top of Mt. Kineo. We rode ATVs and a seaplane and went searching for Moose!
We only had one day that was a complete washout due to heavy rain and winds but it paid off when the sky cleared just as the sun was going down and provided us with the most beautiful sunset I have ever seen.
I would highly recommend Moosehead Lake and this property and hope to visit again!

Moosehead Lake is one of the most beautiful places in Maine. We chose to stay in the "Sundown on Moosehead Lake" which is an exceptional luxury cabin home. There are 3 nice bedrooms with very comfortable beds and another comfy bed in a spacious loft/sitting area. There is a woodstove in the living room so we were able to enjoy a couple of nice wood fires. There is a gorgeous sunroom that offers one of the most stunning views of the lake facing west. The mornings are beautiful and the sunsets in the evening are incredible. Moosehead Lake is even beautiful on cloudy days. Absolutely mesmerizing view! God's handiwork at best! Great place for morning coffee or for reading a book. The home is furnished with everything you need and it is very easy to find. The hosts, Kim and Jim are so kind and helpful! The instructions on how to get there and access the home are excellent. There is a book that is informative of Greenville and the surrounding area. The hosts were communicative, supportive, and understanding. One night the power went out briefly during a storm. The home has a Generac which kicked on immediately. Kim texted to make sure we were ok and to let us know when the power would be back on. They genuinely care about their guests and they want you to have a great time which we did. We drove down to Belfast and Camden one day and explored Acadia on another day. We had a wild moose watching tour with Harold King of Moosehead Area Guide Services. So much fun and yes, we saw plenty of wildlife! Greenville is an adorable town with nice shops and good restaurants. The locals are very friendly. It was fun exploring different places, and so great to come back to our lovely cabin home in the evening. I highly recommend this property! It is 10 stars plus!!! Special thanks to Kim and Jim for sharing their paradise on Earth.

A long weekend at Kim's cozy cabin
We absolutely LOVED this place, the views, the accommodations, the two baths, 3 beds w/ loft, and all of Kim's precise instructions of the home and its use was extremely helpful coming from Maryland. The local town is only about a 5 minute drive from the cabin to grocery stores, outfitters, gift shops, taverns, etc.
Kim was accessible during the day if we had Q's and/or to verify anything about the home; even though it was not necessary to get right back to me. She made our stay convenient for our family, which made our time there so relaxing! It has a great vibe, and having the snowmobile path so accessible to the lake right from the driveway made is so safe and convenient for us!
You could tell how the maintenance, cleanliness, and care of this home is a priority for the owners-- they put a lot of LOVE and pride into their place. We were so grateful to have a safe, clean, and well-appointed home for our family while we spent the weekend snowmobiling, ice fishing, cooking, and catching up with our family; we just needed more time to do it. Next time we will! I can appreciate a tidy, well-accommodating home, too, since my family has been regular vacation home renters starting around 1998.
We cannot wait to come back to this gorgeous home, and highly recommend that folks have a chance to stay here to enjoy the beautiful views of Moosehead Lake, all of the warm comforts of this cozy cabin, warm blankets, comfy beds, pillows, and just the ample space for a family of 8. Kim went out of her way to make our stay most comfortable, relaxing, easy and accommodated when we had Q's and/or needed any further clarification, via text; she always was friendly, communicated quickly & thoroughly and got right back to me.
We're so exciting for the possibility of coming back here in June-- see you again and Kim, I hope that we get a chance to meet in person, too, one day! :) Best, Melani

Delightful time on Moosehead Lake
My brother, his wife and I spent three days at this beautiful, peaceful property. The owner did everything possible to make us feel welcome and cared about. Kim is a delight making sure our every need was met, our every question answered promptly. It is obvious that she cares deeply for this lovely place and has kept it clean, well organized and fully supplied. The view from the sun room is spectacular. The lake, the surroundings mountains and during our stay, the blazing autumn colors reflected in the water were simply breathtaking!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay despite the wet weather. The house is so cozy with the wood stove going that one feels completely at peace chatting or reading or simply gazing at the view.
The house is located in a very private setting but the town of Greenville is within a mile where one can find a number of good restaurants and interesting shops.
I recommend this property very highly!

We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Sundown. The cabin was just as it was pictured on the site. The open concept made it so easy to be comfortable and feel at home. And the lovely sunroom with those gorgeous views of the lake was where we spent most of our time. It was hot and humid when we arrived, but all the screen doors let the lake breezes flow throughout the space. No need for air conditioning. Of course, we went immediately to the lake. It is shallow at that part of the lake, so the water was wonderfully comfortable. However, the rocks are a bit slippery. Water shoes are a must. When you’re inside, you have everything you need in the kitchen for meals. There is also plenty of room to stretch out and read, play games, or just listen to the loons. The beds are very comfortable, and for two couples, the layout is perfect. We each had our own bedroom with those beautiful western views. We enjoyed everything about the place. It made our visit to Moosehead thoroughly delightful. Kim was a joy to work with from initial booking until the day we left. Thank you so much for your kind hospitality.

Moosehead Lake Beauty
We love this lakeside cabin, this is our second summer staying at Kim's house, she is quick to get back to us and inform us of all and anything going on around the house! Comfy and all the amenities you could need, the new addition of the bench down by the water was so great this year! We will be back! Thank you K&T and friends from VT!

We have rented a number of properties on Moosehead and this is one of our favorites. The home is beautiful with fabulous western lake views and sunsets. The bedrooms are much larger than the photos indicate and the beds are very, very comfortable. The kitchen is spacious and well stocked. I appreciated how organized the home was, with lots of information about things to know about the house and things to do/see in the area. The property is private but convenient and close to town. There is a lovely dock area with a porch swing to watch the sunset. The water is very shallow in this area of the lake (and especially this year with the lake being down 18 inches) but fine for launching a kayak or floating in a tube. The host family is responsive and clearly love and take care of their home. We are grateful for another wonderful week on Moosehead!
