About this house rental
Welcome to our 4-season vacation getaway on Whetstone Pond in Piscataquis County, Abbot, Maine. We offer the best of both worlds - all the amenities of modern living surrounded by the natural beauty of central Maine.
This isn't roughing it, that's for sure - streaming flat-screen TV, wifi internet, fully-equipped kitchen (microwave, refrigerator, dishwasher, ...), clothes washer and dryer, heat pump a/c and heating, standby generator, beautiful Whetstone Pond just a few feet from the front door with glorious views of the water and surrounding mountains from two 2nd floor balconies and the deck - you can recharge your batteries quite nicely without ever leaving the property.
But if you're feeling adventurous and enjoy the outdoor life, there's no shortage of possibilities - hiking, fishing, whitewater rafting, ATV trails and, in the winter, snowmobile trails and cross-country skiing. One of our favorite outdoor activities is accessible from our front deck - a nightly show of stars and the Milky Way the likes of which you probably don't see from home. If you own a telescope or even a pair of binoculars, you'll be glad if you packed them along.
For the slightly less adventurous, there are small towns within easy driving distance that offer a variety of restaurants, gift shops, craft shops, museums and, along the way, plenty of yard sales with that local Maine flavor. There's also the monthly dance at the Finnish Dance Hall - come early for the half hour dance instruction and then hit the floorboards to the sounds of a live band and an experience you'll be telling your friends back home about.
This is just a taste what is available to you. Don't hesitate to contact us for more information or for any other reason.

The view of the pond was beautiful, and the fireplace was great. We were there to celebrate Christmas with family that live nearby, and the house was perfect.

Awesome A Frame cabin on pond
6 / 10Average·Sep 2025
The A frame is cute. Entry was easily accessible. Stairs to second floor a little tricky, light was out for the stairs. It was very hot on the time we were there. Upstairs was to hot to sleep in. We slept downstairs on futons. Downstairs curtain rod needs to be replaced. Rod fell apart & curtains hard to move.Loved the out the door into the pond. Neighbors are close.All in all a nice stay.
