About this cottage rental

Welcome to your northern Maine lakefront escape, where rustic luxury meets panoramic mountain and water views on the shores of the Pemadumcook Chain of Lakes. Designed for families, friends, and lifelong memories, this spacious cabin offers the perfect balance of comfort, adventure, and the timeless beauty & serenity of Maine’s North Woods.

Wake each morning to sweeping views of Mt. Katahdin reflected across the water, then enjoy coffee from the dock as loons call across the lake and our local family of Bald Eagles share their morning catch. Inside, warm wood finishes, comfortable gathering spaces, and a cozy interior create an inviting atmosphere after a day spent exploring the vast wilderness region.

Adventure begins right outside your door. Cast a line from the private dock for bass, perch, pickerel and other warm-water fish or launch a boat and explore more than ten miles of connected waterways to chase salmon and lake trout in deeper areas throughout the Pemadumcook Chain of Lakes. Numerous rivers and streams throughout the region provide even more fishing opportunities for anglers of every skill level.

For hikers, the cabin serves as an ideal base camp for some of Maine’s most iconic destinations. Explore the trails of Baxter State Park, discover the rugged beauty National Monument, or venture to Gulf Hagas—often called the “Grand Canyon of the North”—where waterfalls, gorges, and dramatic scenery await. Whether you’re looking for a leisurely nature walk or a challenging summit hike, the region offers trails for every experience level.

Adventure seekers will find no shortage of excitement. Experience Class V whitewater rafting on the Penobscot River beneath the shadow of Mt. Katahdin, rent a side-by-side ATV and access hundreds of miles of interconnected trail systems, or arrange a floatplane excursion directly from the cabin’s private dock. Scenic flights can take you above Maine’s endless forests, lakes, and mountains—or even transport you to lunch on Moosehead Lake or other remote destinations accessible only by air.

Nature lovers will appreciate the abundance of wildlife and seasonal treasures. Be sure to bring your camera if you are a nature photography enthusiast! Depending on the time of year, guests can forage for wild blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, and a variety of edible mushrooms throughout the surrounding forests. Keep an eye out for moose, bald eagles, and other native wildlife that call this remarkable region home.

As evening arrives, slow the pace and embrace the tranquility of lake life. Explore our quiet cove and nearby islands by canoe or kayak (available onsite), jump in and cool off with a swim, relax in the hammock overlooking the lake, gather around the picnic table for a traditional Maine lobster boil, or enjoy a fire in the pit at waters edge as the sun sets behind the mountains.

When darkness falls, the experience becomes truly unforgettable. Located near Katahdin Woods and Waters National Monument—one of the few officially designated International Dark Sky regions in the United States—the area offers exceptional stargazing opportunities. From the dock, fire pit or hammock, enjoy dazzling views of the Milky Way, countless constellations, meteor showers, and, on fortunate nights, the magical display of the Aurora Borealis dancing across the northern sky.

Step back inside and gather with family and friends in the living room. Watch a favorite movie, share stories, or challenge one another to board games beside the warmth of the stone fireplace. For those seeking a quieter end to the day, curl up with a good book in a comfortable chair or retreat to a cozy bedroom, where the peaceful sounds of the lake and surrounding forest provide the perfect backdrop for a restful night’s sleep.

Whether you’re seeking outdoor adventure, family connection, world-class stargazing, or simply a peaceful place to unwind on the water, this northern Maine cabin offers an authentic lakeside summer experience you’ll remember long after your stay ends. We look forward to sharing our multigenerational family cabin with you and hearing about memories made!

We had a wonderful week in Millinocket, and this house is really a home. The hosts were very responsive, accommodating and easygoing. We originally wanted to go hiking, but ended up just relaxing and enjoying the lake all week instead. If you have a boat and enjoy fishing, this is a fantastic spot to explore.

This was one of my favorite vacations! The location can't be beat. The camp community is very special. We swam, canoed and kayaked most days. Beautiful view of Katahdin from the dock. The house is beautiful, charming and has everything you need. Kristi and her daughter were very welcoming and gave us great recommendations. We went Baxter State Park twice during our week stay. Once hiking to Katahdin and Knife Edge, which was an incredible experience and challenging hike. I highly recommend this camp and hope to be back in the future!
