Just what we were looking for! Peace, serenity no crowds and traffic!! Perfect place to unplug and the dogs were in heaven! Always wonderful to see the eagles year after year! Thank you Marie, we will be back!

Stayed at this beautiful cabin for a few days with my husband and sons. Marie was beyond lovely and so accommodating. The island is truly beautiful. We fished, boated around the lake, and just enjoyed our surroundings and quality time together. Watching the eagles fly overhead was truly a treat. We will definitely return!!!

This was an amazing and unique vacation for us with our two puppies! They were able to explore and learn to swim while off leash. The cabin has tons of character, is well stocked with everything one might need and is very cozy! Marie is such a wonderful host, was great with communication and always wanted to make sure we were comfy! We will be back!

We loved Marie's cabin on the island. We brought our kayaks and paddle board, and spent a long weekend paddling and swimming around the pond. There's a jumping rock a short paddle or swim from the island that our girls loved. The eagles nesting nearby were amazing - we saw them every day flying, hunting and even sitting in the tall trees above our cabin. Our two dogs came with us and the island was perfect for them. Space to sniff, snooze and swim. The cabin has all the basics you need and Marie is a wonderful host - she met us at the dock, showed us around, and stocked the cabin with lanterns, a cooler full of ice, beach towels and all the basics we needed for a few days. She leaves you with a flat bottom skiff that we used to get to/from where we parked our cars (spots for two cars) as well as to take a couple sunset cruises around the pond. If you like the idea of being off grid but not too far away from a grocery store or the ability to charge your phone, this is a great option.

Love this place! Beautiful lake, cozy dark cabin, lots of history. Loons and bald eagle nearby. Marie was so friendly and helpful. We went for a swim around the islands and went hiking in New Hampshire. Drinking coffee by the lake in the morning is a treat.

We stayed at the cabin for 4 nights. Marie was there to greet us upon arrival. The boat was ready for us to take to the island upon arrival. Marie joined us on our initial boat ride to give us the lay of the land when we got there. There is a 5 gallon water cooler there for fresh water and a special cooler with ice provided to keep you food cold for several days upon arrival. The cabin is cozy with 4 twin size beds, 2 on the first floor and two on the loft. The loft is difficult to access if you are an adult. Our kids didnt have any problems accessing it. The cabin doesnt have electric or plumbing so be prepared (bring solar phone chargers or other type devices to keep you phones/devices charged) Marie provides several battery operated lights throughout the cabin. You get GOOD cell phone reception there so it was easy to stay connected to friends/family to send them pics/videos of our stay. The kids enjoyed fishing and swimming everyday (and so did I). We caught several types of fish without leaving the island such as blue gill, perch, and bass so bring some bait/worms. We would take the boat on some late evening cruises to watch the Loons and Bald Eagles which was nice. The Loons just had two babies and the bald eagles have a juvenile with the nest on the neighboring island. We also went night fishing on the boat and caught a few white perch. We would have a small campfire during the evenings and watch the sunset. There is a small town nearby about 5 miles away (Bethel) that has a small grocery store and there is also a gas station (Big Apple) where you can pickup some bait to go fishing with right off Main Street. There is an outhouse on the island with the old fashioned half moon door. Marie was a great hostess! She was genuinely proactive about wanting us to have a great stay. She was readily available by phone if needed. It felt like she was our Mom for our short stay there. Thanks Marie for a great stay!!

A unique and ideal escape. We spent 4 days on the porch of our private island listening to the loons. The bald eagle from the neighboring island visited us each morning as we ate breakfast. There are obviously limited amenities, but if you're prepared to grill and read books with a view, it's amazing!
