Quiet rural cabin in Maine near Bigelow Preserve, Flagstaff Lake and Sugarloaf

Highland Hideaway
This quiet, rural retreat is off the beaten path, in the Western Maine woods, just below Bigelow Preserve and a short distance from Flagstaff Lake. This little cabin is ideal for the outdoor enthusiast and suited for 1 to 4 guests looking for a relaxing experience, without giving up basic amenities.
Enjoy your morning beverage relaxing to the sounds of the streams around the property and the peaceful surrounding forest. Come back at the end of the day’s adventures to your cozy campfire, starry night skies and a comfy screen house to enjoy the evenings.
Our road is nestled between scenic Routes 201 (Old Canada Road), and Route 27 (Carrabassett Valley, Sugarloaf Mountain and the West side of Flagstaff Lake). The road is paved, but if you are planning to explore, AWD or 4WD is recommended for the secondary roads.
We are a short distance from the southeast side of Bigelow Preserve, Flagstaff Lake Public Lands, Appalachia Trail, Maine Huts and Trails’ Flagstaff Hut and Flagstaff Lake. Sugarloaf Mountain ME is a scenic 45 minute drive from this location.
Popular things to do here: hiking, mountain/fat biking, bird watching, canoeing, kayaking, fishing, leaf peeping, hunting, Winter activities include snowshoeing, snowmobiling, cross country skiing, skiing and boarding.
The Hideaway stands alone, off the deck, at the back of our property, with its own yard and driveway with ample parking for your toys. The outdoor grilling & cooking area includes a gas grill, 4 burner gas cook top, a large toaster oven, and a large beverage cooler. The deck is covered by a metal roof, making cooking outdoors doable in almost all weather conditions. The screen house makes enjoying those meals outdoors quite comfortable. The picnic table is just off the deck. The yard has ample room for your yard games. The kitchenette inside has a refrigerator, Keurig and 4 cup coffee makers, microwave, crockpot, toaster oven, dishes, beverage ware, utensils and cooking tools. Bring your own food & beverages, and a bundle or two of Maine firewood is always appreciated if you are going to plan a small campfire.
There is a bathroom with a shower in the cabin, and an outside shower (seasonal) on the back end of the cabin. We do provide bedding and towels. There is a multiple device charging port to charge devices, WIFI TV, DVD player, movies, and an Echo Dot for tunes. The cabin is heated / air conditioned and has an electric fireplace. Laundromats are in both nearby towns.
The cabin resources and size cannot accommodate more than 4 guests, so it is important not bring more folks than the reservation allows.
