About this cottage rental
This charming historic cottage is attached to our home and is our year round guest house. It sits in a quiet cove with access to the 5 larger lakes around it. It is 5 miles to the town of Millinocket and is easy to get to. It's a wonderful place for water activities or just relaxing by the water. It's also a great jumping off point for the Katahdin region including Baxter State Park. We have a paddle boat,two canoes, and three kayaks available. Bird watch, leaf peep, moose watch, white water raft, hike, kayak, swim, fish, x-country ski ,snow shoe, ATV, snowmobile or just relax and enjoy the view. We are close to a network of trails. Just leave the house and hit the trails.

I could not have asked for better place to stay for our white water rafting adventure. The cottage is very quaint and has everything you would need for your stay along with lake access in the backyard. Faye and Donny are very welcoming hosts, allowing you full use of their canoes and kayaks to enjoy the lake and they were even gracious enough to take us for a sunset cruise of the lake on their personal Pontoon boat. Highly recommend.

The cottage is very vintage to reflect its history. It was well maintained and equipped with everything we needed. The hosts are lovely people and were nice enough to take us on a boat ride around the lake. I would highly recommend this place!

We had a lovely quick stay at Faye and Donny's lakeside cottage. Great location for access to Baxter State Park. We found the location easily. The cottage was clean, stocked well and very homey. Lovely lake view with a large deck to enjoy as well. We hope to return at some point in the future.
