Perfect Getaway
Publié le 17 août 2024 sur HomeAwayWe just loved this camp, directly on Barkers Pond. For us, the direct lake access, with available kayaks was the draw but since our first day was rainy, we really appreciated this updated cabin, it was so comfortable staying in for a day. Thankfully, the weather was perfect for the next couple days of our long weekend getaway..Highly recommended!

Most fabulous vacation!
Publié le 14 août 2024 sur HomeAwayOur family of 5 (parents, 2 teens and a tween) made the trip from Texas to Boston, then drove up to this gorgeous cabin on Barkers Pond.
It was the most magical, lovely setting and a perfect getaway/ending to our vacation. The cabin was perfectly suited for our family, and had all the amenities we needed for fishing/grilling/cooking/swimming. The kids and adults all spent hours on kayaks and fishing by on the gorgeous pond, and the water was perfectly clear and comfortable (July).
We loved being so close to several towns which made it easy to day trip out and be back in time for some swimming/sunset views.
** This turned out to also be perfect because we all decided we are lake vs beach people…we were able to go to several nearby beaches but not have to commit to staying constantly sandy etc **
The owners, who live next door/on site could not have been more friendly or easy to work with! It felt like we had friends nearby, but at the same time we had all of the privacy and space that we could want or need.
10/10, we all agreed that this was our favorite vacation and we can be wait to come back. So thankful we found this amazing place!!

Beautiful Cabin !
Publié le 3 août 2024 sur HomeAwayProperty was beautiful and quiet location. The cabin was nicely furnished and had everything we needed. Enjoyed morning coffee sitting on the deck on the pond watching fish jump from the water. Would definitely recommend.

Amazing
Publié le 10 sept. 2023 sur HomeAwayWe had an amazing time at the cabin. Was just as advertised and was just so much more beautiful in person. Right on the water and the view was just breathtaking. 100% recommend.

Wonderful stay!
Publié le 14 août 2023 sur HomeAwayWe loved our long weekend at the lake camp! It was the perfect home base for a few people in our group who were doing the MS Ride in Biddeford. We swam in the lake, went kayaking, sat around the firepit, and enjoyed the views from the lovely wall of windows. The owners could not be nicer, and even gave us fresh eggs from their chickens! We would recommend this lake camp to others. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Relax with Nature
Publié le 31 juill. 2023 sur HomeAwayWe had a wonderful week relaxing with nature. The cabin was so rustic and cute and was clean from top to bottom. We had a peaceful week swimming and kayaking on the pond, and enjoyed hearing the loon and seeing the hummingbirds.
If you are looking for action and excitement with all the bells and whistles, this is not the place for you!
The cabin's setting is peaceful and relaxing. Although there are other cabins close by, we never heard any noise from them. My granddaughter loved talking to the chickens and looking for eggs in the mornings. My grandsons loved diving off the dock and swimming in the pond.
The cabin was well stocked with every kitchen convenience and the host provided toiletries in case you forgot to bring them.
The hosts were available, responsive and thoughtful.
We would recommend this cabin to anyone wanting a peaceful, relaxing stay away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Outdoors was amazing. Indoor not so much.
Publié le 31 juill. 2023 sur HomeAwayThe outdoors and view was amazing. But the cottage had a bad mice infestation. The first day we arrived. There was a mouse in the room and emails trap. So the owners knew that there were mice because there was a mouse trap. Throughout this day, more mice were in the home, climbing up and down the walls and running around the house nonchalantly. the bathroom smelt like a urinal and the water just kept running nonstop. The cottage was not as clean as it should have been before we arrived, and they were crumbs upon our revival on the counter. Not to mention it was extremely hot with no air circulation and no AC. We had to leave a day early because the mice infestation was so bad.

Dear Michelle,
We are happy to hear that you enjoyed the outdoor amenities that our cabin has to offer. We do take issue with the false statements that you have made. I will address them here. Firstly, our cabin is in pristine condition before every guest arrives. I, personally, do a walk-through after every clean. Our Housekeepers our second to none on the New England Coast. They are employed by the top rentals in the area. I stand by their work.
Secondly, In the listing of amenities, we state there is no air conditioning. We do offer several large fans for comfort. These are seldom used due to the breezes from the water. It was hot during your stay, but the fans should have been more than sufficient. Again, if you required air conditioning, you should have considered staying elsewhere.
Thirdly, I almost don't even know how to respond to your claim of mice just "nonchalantly" climbing around. I have never encountered a nonchalant mouse. There has never been a mouse infestation at the cabin. Not one of our previous guests has ever mentioned nor have I, personally, experienced this. My suspicion is that you did not want to pay for your stay, due to the fact that you left only a few hours before checkout. You never notified us of any problems until after you left. You did not reach out to VRBO until 10 days after your stay and were, to my knowledge, unable to provide proof of any kind. In addition to all of this, your credibility is damaged due to the wonderful experiences our guests have had after your stay.

Highly disappointed
Publié le 5 juill. 2023 sur HomeAwayI would classify this as a basic hunting cabin that would be fine for men using it only to sleep. I was highly disappointed with the unfinished walls and ceilings, bed frame of twin bed in front room creaked horribly when you laid on it, and shower curtain didn't keep the water in the shower so we had to lay a towel on the floor so it won't ruin the wood. The lake view was nice, the fire pit was nice, and the quiet location was nice. I have the same concern another review had that there is no way this place would pass inspection for living standards or being a rental. The communication with the owners was easy and they were quick to respond. I wasn't happy that I had to supply all water for drinking except for the 6 bottles in fridge. For the prices you pay to stay at VRBOs, I don't expect to have to supply my own water. I was sick when I first walked in and saw the place. If it wasn't June in Maine and hard to find other places, I would have changed locations. It is tolerable but it wasn't enjoyable.

Dear Stephanie,
While it is unfortunate that you did not enjoy some aspects of our cabin. It is well represented in our description and pictures. The cabin is described as a rustic cabin, not a luxury cabin. The cabin is a place where people can relax and enjoy the beauty of the pond and the nature that surrounds them in a serene and peaceful setting. My husband and I stayed in the cabin 5 years ago and fell immediately in love with it. So much so, that when the opportunity to buy it was presented to us, we jumped at the chance. I can not tell you, how many guests feel the same way. They leave their number with me on the chance that I will ever sell it. This is a family, Upta camp, Maine cabin in the woods. It is well appointed with everything that you need. We do supply the first case of water to drink and soda, coffee, creamers, sugar, and essentials to make cooking a meal convenient. As you said, we are very easy to communicate with. If you were unhappy with anything, we would have done all we could to correct it. You had plenty of opportunities to address issues with us instead of giving us a poor review which hurts our business.
To address any issues of safety, our cabin is yearly inspected. We also, take all suggestions from guests to heart and make improvements each year. We love hosting and will continue to improve the experience at our beautiful cabin as we go forward. From all the wonderful reviews that we have received after your stay, we feel we are on the right track. Be well, and if you are ever in our neck of the Maine woods, again. you are welcome to stay at our Rustic Maine Cabin.
Very truly,
Penelope Briggeman
