About this house rental

Located in Moosehead Lake, this charming house for £863 per night is a great option for your next trip. Breathtaking views 10' from the lake overlooking Mt. Kineo. This family compound sits on the scenic shore of Moosehead Lake which is one of the largest lakes east of the Mississippi. Sleeps 10 with 2 baths and one shower house. Whether you are looking to relax amongst the tall pines or looking for a bit more adventure such as fishing, hunting, snowmobiling, ATV, hiking, biking, watching moose or boating and ice fishing - Moosehead has it all! Our family compound is off the grid and consists of a main lodge and 3 cabins which were originally built for use as a boys camp in the early 1900's. They have been tastefully updated maintaining the charm of yesterday but included today's modern amenities such as internet. The landscaping and furnishings are magazine worthy. This is the perfect setting for a family reunion or just a get together with friends. The cabins are not rented separately so if you were to rent the entire compound would be included in your reservation. The layout consists of a main lodge with a master bedroom (king bed) and second bedroom with bunkbeds, bath, full kitchen and dining room. A second camp with two twin beds and a small kitchen and bath and two other sleeping cabins. One with bunk beds and the other with a queen bed. There is also a new outdoor shower. There are so many mountains in the Moosehead Lake region, it is difficult to highlight them all. Among the most popular hikes of the Rockwood area are Mount Kineo . When reaching the top a hiker can take in the astounding panoramic views of the distant ranges. There is a pebble beach at the base which offers the perfect setting for a picnic lunch. For those of you looking to rent a boat there is a marina within 5 miles away where you can rent a boat. A boat can be rented and brought right up to our dock for your stay. Canoe and two kayaks are on site. Although you feel you are away from it all the town of Greenville Maine is just 20 miles away where you will find a quaint general store, several restaurants and food trucks, tackle shops, boat rental marinas, ice cream shops and an old fashioned candy store, gift shops and a hospital. There is also a convenience store and restaurant just a couple miles away from the lodge. If you are looking for a mellow, off the grid retreat this is perfect. The main renter must be 25 or older and must be staying at the property. Must be responsible guests who will respect the property and neighbors.

I have mixed feelings about this rental -- there are a lot of positives, but also a number of negatives relative to other homes I have rented historically. I'll start with the positives. The location is wonderful -- you have an unobstructed view of the lake and Mt Kineo, there is shockingly little boat traffic on the lake, the dock and mooring work well for boat rentals, and the landscaping around the property is very nice. The owners also provide a lot of nice "toys" that you are free to use from kayaks to canoes to cornhole and bocce. And finally, I liked the rustic decor within the cabins. On the negative side, this property requires a fair bit of work on the part of the renters. The cabins are off the grid and electricity is run by batteries which have to be fed by generators. That means that as the renter, you have to go outside twice a day to start the generator and twice a day to turn off the generator to prevent the batteries from getting too low and causing damage. It's not difficult, but it's annoying. If you want to run the washing machine, you have to go outside and flip a switch and then run the generator all the time the washing machine is on. Then when you finish washing, you have to go out and flip the switch again and turn off the generator. There is no dryer so drying must be done on the clothes line. These things are not difficult to do, but for folks used to the conveniences of modern living, they are a hassle.

We were a large extended family from east & west coast and Deer Lodge was exceptional for us. It is so beautiful and at the same time comfortable. We were welcomed upon arrival and everything explained to us about the workings of the camp. We highly recommend this lovely rental.

From the moment we made the reservation to the point of checkout, the entire experience was unforgettable. What a gorgeous location and interesting property filled with lots of history. Daily visits from ducks, rabbits, squirrels, chipmunks, and an occasional moose sighting. If you want to relax and unwind with your family while enjoying nature, this is the place to go. A wonderful experience all around! 5 stars.

Our family loved our stay at the family compound / lodge. The cabins were comfortable and the exactly at the right level of "rustic" and "updated." There are four cabins. My wife and I stayed in the main cabin, which has a master bedroom with a beautiful view of the lake. This main cabin is also where we ate most of our meals -- there is a large table positioned under a skylight. We also sat out on the front porch overlooking the water a fair amount, and spent a lot of time out on the water playing around the lake. The lake is crystal clear and was refreshingly cool. What a treat!

Loved our trip to Moosehead lake staying in these cozy cabins right on the lake. Unbelievable water views/sunsets and star gazing. Loved sitting by the fire pit at night listening to the loons. We stayed in the main cabin and my husband used the cabin next to it as his office which worked out perfect. Wifi was great. Main cabin wonderfuly decorated with antiques and very comfortable master bed. Had everything we needed for cooking, lounging, etc. Beautiful views from cabins, porch, dock. Did a ton of hiking and took a wonderful seaplane trip. Nearby saw deer, turkeys, mink, rabbits, - and moose prints although not a full on moose. Loved that the place was solar powered - very easy to manage the generator as needed. Main cabin has an outdoor shower which I loved (got super hot!) and the cabin next door had an indoor shower (more my husbands style!). They had a canoe and paddle boards which I kept meaning to take out but got distracted with other activities and then it was a little to windy for me. Next time!!!
