We didn't want to leave!
This lakeview camp was absolutely perfect for my wife, our daughter, granddaughter and I. Thankfully, they were able to join us from Wisconsin and there was no fees nor additional charges. (We could have had 2 more grand children). The dock has protection for the boat, tie downs and cushioning as the waves came in. It is well kept and convenient to fish from. We caught so many fish and nobody bothered us the 4 nights we were there. My next vacations I would book again!

Great Home Base for Our Annual Fishing Trip
This was a great spot for our group of 4 guys to enjoy our annual fishing trip. China Lake is one of our favorite bass fishing lakes in Maine and this cottage served as an ideal location from which to operate from. Ken was a gracious host and we had no issues with the property or communicating before our arrival. The brand-new dock with boat bumpers was the cherry on top.

Beautiful View
Very clean small place on the lake. Ken was great to deal with. Parking area isn’t paved or graveled so off road vehicle would be good for wetter days. Fun fire pit area and wood all prechopped. Great stay will do again!

Peaceful & Relaxing
My daughter, sister and I had a wonderful time! I really enjoyed listening to the loons throughout the day & night. I just loved sitting out on the dock having my morning coffees. I also really enjoyed the lanai area for looking out over the water. I had plans to get out more while up, but was quite content with just staying in and enjoying this lovely camp.

Perfect spot for a getaway
The kids kept saying it was one of our best vacations ever. They loved jumping off the dock into the water and going out a little deeper on the paddle board. They ate smore after smore next to the campfire at night. The interior of the house was clearly recently updated and looks fantastic. This place is great for families, couples, or a friends trip.
