Amazing Location
This was just what we were looking for. Just enough to be comfortable. Cabin was well appointed with anything you could need. Very peaceful and quiet. There is something about a dirt road where everyone waves at each other that brings life back into focus. Tons of hiking and kayaking. Also did about 50 miles of bike riding. Only negative was mosquitoes but they weren’t constant. Didn’t even use a full bottle of bug spray over a week. Will be back again.

We so enjoyed our stay in this clean, cozy cabin on the lake. Heard the loons as we watched a spectacular sunset! Enjoyed delicious dining at River Drivers & Scootic In restaurants convenient to the cabin. Great local hiking!

We had such a great week with our teenagers! Since there is no WiFi and limited cell service, we were able to connect in a way that rarely happens in our fast paced life. The cabin was perfect for games, naps, canoe rides and fun. Simple, clean, gorgeous views. We will be back!

Wet
Wish I could have seen it on a sunny day. Well appointed for linens. Didn’t have staples or supplies like aluminum foil or plastic wrap, or extra paper towels. Space could have used additional side tables for recliner chairs. Essentially adequate. Rained every day with low cloud cover which limited views and visibility.

Hidden Gem
We had such a relaxing week. The description of being a "rustic" cabin does not mean you sacrifice cleanliness or quality, well maintained appliances, nice sheets and towels, comfortable beds ect. The cabin definitely exceeded our expectations! It's in such a convenient location for exploring the park, white water rafting and other local sights but also perfect all in itself for days we just wanted to relax. We loved the serene view, swimming in the lake and the sound of loons in the evening.

Lovely spot. very clean and tidy place.
We used this lovely camp as a base for touring the region. If you don't have 4WD make sure to back into driveway as it is somewhat steep and unpaved. But definitely worth renting. If you don't know the area make sure to stop at Tourist Info to get maps and info. Extremely limited cell service at the camp.

We had such a comfortable and relaxing time! The cottage is clean and well provisioned, close to Baxter and several places to eat. The lake is literally steps away and we enjoyed seeing ducks, loons, and even a moose. Hope to come back again!

a place without the electronic world
There were certain inconveniences, as no internet or television. On a hot day, no air conditioning, the bed and futon in the loft on a 90 degree day were hot, one big fan only. So, one should bring at least 2 extra fans Lots of black flies and mosquitos, so repellent necessary. If inside bug killer exists, should bring. Double bed in loft, beside it, is a futon, which is okay for one adult or 2 kids. A double bed in a closed door bedroom, the best bed, for one adult or 2 compatible people. A pull out couch in living room area, good for one adult or 2 compatible people and a another couch for small person to sleep on. Has a good heater for cold days and nights. Could use coffee cups, saw none. Suggest tin foil for grilling, or wrap food. Saw no fry pan. Bug lanterns outside would be a nice extra or bring yourself. One canoe, on rough waves, windy days might be risky. If you like fishing, and have your own fishing boat bring it. Nice sandy beach, There is a thick polyethylene like canvas on the outside entry grounds, which on a rainy day is slippery. A clothes line for drying wet clothes or towels needs a stronger rope. The view from the cabin out upon the lake is fantastic. Has nice dock going out to the water. Appliances are great, including refrigerator, washer and dryer. Shower stall very functional, limited hot water, for one perhaps, 2 people per 2 hours or so. Very clean accommodations. Very pleasant place, of course, nothing is perfect, but stay is enjoyable.

Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your beautiful home away from home with us! The views were spectacular and the beach area with fire pit was the absolute best to sit for coffee, read in the sun, launch our kayaks, or do some fishing. The interior was very clean with unparalleled views. More room than we expected (gorgeous spacious living room!) This is also an ideal “home base” for hiking in Baxter. We came in May and many trails in lower Baxter were open so we had fun exploring! Wish we had more time here than just a spontaneous weekend away - hope to be back someday! Thank you again for welcoming us into your special place.
