My family and I visited this beautiful cabin on the lake for a weekend retreat as our first time in Maine. There were 5 adults and one infant. The property did not include a pack and play, but we brought one to leave on the property for anyone’s future use.
To start with the great things about our stay: we loved the unique cabin atmosphere and the proximity to the lake. It is fairly secluded so it almost felt like being at summer camp. There’s a great propane fire table we all sat around for dinner and a firepit by the water. There was plenty of space for everyone to have their own area, and we enjoyed the rustic feel.
Unfortunately, there were some unpleasant moments of the stay. To begin, when we arrived on the property, the cleanliness was not up to our standard. Keep in mind when booking, this property is “dog friendly”, but the amount of dog hair still looming around was unacceptable. Additionally, when sitting on one of the couches, a previous dog had left us a “gift” under one of the pillows which one of us sat in. We spent the first half hour of our stay cleaning the mess from the couch and sweeping some excessive dog hair. Though hours after my initial message to Vacasa, they offered to send someone to properly clean the property, but by that time, we had already done the work. Later, they refunded our cleaning fee, but I’m not that was enough given the unpleasantness of the couch situation.
However, if I had the chance to come back, I’d love to stay at this property again as it was a place to unwind and relax while catching many fish just right off the dock!
