Naples, ME- Spectacular views of Mt. Washington from dock, decks, cabin/cottage

Had a wonderful week on Long lake staying at this rustic cottage. Found this place last minute and was a great option for the area during July 4th week. This cottage is vintage Maine, with knotty pine paneling, well worn floors and lots of character. The cabin was clean, the beds were comfortable, the front porch overlooking the water was great for reading and puzzles, and the dock was amazing. You'll see some gorgeous sunsets on this lake from the dock. If you stay during 4th of July week, you just have to paddle/boat a little ways out to see the fireworks on the water. That is the best part. The kitchen island was a bit small to cook from at times but that's what a typical Maine cottage can be like and we were too busy enjoying the outdoors to focus on cooking. I will say that pine pitch makes the outdoor furniture a bit messy but that's to be expected with all the trees. Also, some items outside were a bit mildewy and mossy but that's nature. Inside, the cabin was fine, no musty smell that is typical of cottages/cabins like this. The washer and dryer work well, so does the grill, and the shower was good.The canoe is great, although a bit heavy to move. We paddled out in the evening when the water was calm. The kayak is great too, although it looks a bit beat up on the outside. There are life jackets and floats for use in the water and it is very fun to jump off the dock and the swim float. This place will take you back in time to a good old fashion summer vacation.

We really enjoyed our week on the lake. The view is amazing. The cabin was cozy and comfortable, the location was excellent. Definitely great place to Unwind and distress.

We were unlucky with wet weather the 3rd week of September but this cottage is so charming and comfy that we greatly enjoyed the indoors: wood fires in the fieldstone fireplace, working remotely on laptops while looking out at the lake (beautiful in all weather), and plenty of seating for family members who came for coffee or cocktails or to curl up and read a book by the fire.

We loved it! Everything you need in a Maine vacation, and more, is here. The cabin is clean, quite large, super comfy, and decorated perfectly and filled with just about everything you need for a week (or more) getaway. Just steps from the dock and lake, which is gorgeous. Breathtaking sunsets every night, which photos don't begin to do justice.Dick, the owner, was super helpful and extremely thorough. One of the best hosts we've ever had.We will be back for many years to come! Can't recommend this cabin enough.
