I'm going to state right out this place needed so tlc but the manager was prompt to answer my request to stay last min as another vrbo cottage cancelled last min. I was very happy to have the place for sure. The price is fair for what you get. The small beach area is a short walk away, nice firepit area. Large enough cottage to suit 6 grown adults easy. Stove only warmed but there is a microwave :) I am so happy to have found this with-in 24 hrs of needing a place for my company. Excellent communication Thanks so much !

A very solid place to spend time with friends

For the price, this was a great spot. There were two cottages being rented out on either side of us, but aside from that we had a lot of activity space, a great fire pit, a large deck, and a 5 minute walk to the beach. The beach was fairly small and weed-y, so better for boat activities and floating than swimming.

Overall we had a good long weekend at the cottage. The good: - the lake close to the cottage was great for kids - Kennebec walking trails a short drive away had beautiful foliage and family friendly hikes - the cottage is warm with ample hot water - the host is responsive over email Less good: - the cottage is old, and rather rundown with lots of wear (e.g. rotting exterior, less than sturdy floors) - the oven warms but does not cook- a rather big deal on Thanksgiving weekend - there is a noticeable mildew/mold smell Being more honest in the listing about the age of the cottage ('rustic') and the available amenities is recommended.
