3 adults (husband, wife, and adult daughter). Excellent communication with host. They even checked in with us when we arrived to see if we needed anything and answered questions we had about the area. Lots of info and recommendations about the area provided in the cabin. The view from the bright windows facing the lake was phenomenal (water and boulders, a mountain, loons, bald eagles) but, even more impressive, was the extreme cleanliness of the cabin!!! The washer and dryer were a great feature. Beds were comfortable. All necessities provided including a crock pot we utilized. We didn't feel we needed to wash any dishware before we used it as has sometimes been necessary to assure cleanliness at other rentals we have stayed at. Loved having use of kayaks provided by host (which we have had to rent at other locations). The host even provided orange safety wear (hats, vests, even one for a dog!) since we were there during hunting season. Quick drive from cabin to Baxter S.P. We were fortunate to see a moose 2 days in a row but each time it was just down the hill from the entrance gate to the park so lots of people were huddling around to see it. We never saw moose anywhere else throughout the park or other locations outside the park but it wasn't for lack of trying! Our favorite "looking for moose hike" in Baxter was Elbow Pond to Grassy Pond. It felt like a magical place throughout the forest and the water views. Only regret was stay was too short!

Stunning on-lake views of water and mountains. Loon calls added a memorable touch. Very well equipped kitchen and comfortable home. Easy access to Baxter State Park. Quiet neighborhood community. Felt very private, even with homes nearby.

A hidden gem, I highly recommend. Beautiful views, modern yet cozy vibe and a delightful deck. Very friendly and responsive hosts!
