Avis Cottage 3: Island View

We were so cozy in our cabin. Viewing the solar eclipse from the dock is a memory we will always remember. Great, clean cabin. Perfect for our family of 4!

My husband and I stayed in cabin #3 for a week long getaway and it wasn’t enough. Kelsey and Josh have revived a slice of heaven here on Moosehead Lake. Having always come in the winter for snowmobiling we weren’t sure exactly what to expect but, the cabins were precisely what we needed. Our cabin was completely done over with fresh pine and new appliances, it was comfy and well appointed. Even tho the main road of rockwood runs behind the cabins there is no real traffic to speak of so you don’t hear it (your way up north) the satellite overview shows the gravel drive between the cabins and the lake to get into the property but it is private and does not have traffic. You can’t get any closer to the lake and the dock was amazing for relaxing and reading a book or doing a canon ball into the water, the sunrise and sunset can be seen from the dock and they are breathtaking. There is a resident bald eagle just a short paddle away on a near by island and if your lucky he/she will give you a close up fly by. Kelsey and Josh have plenty of water craft for the use of the guests, just be sure to put one of the life jackets in ;) The fire pit down but the dock was great to stargaze (out of this world) and mingle with hosts and guests. Some of the other groups of cabin rentals on the lake can get noisy but rockwood cottages is very quiet and peaceful, coffee on the deck overlooking the lake and mount kineo was a daily pleasure. We hope to back as soon as this winter as the ITS runs thru the property. This is the perfect spot to get away from it all, it is a small town but there is the RBG (rockwood bar and grill) a favorite of ours with great pizza and a small attached convenience store, The Birches where you can have a nice sit down dinner or enjoy drinks on the deck by the water, and Manards which has indoor dining 2 choices every night and needs revelations. All are great and have small town charm. One of our favorite days we took the kineo shuttle to the island and played golf on a surprisingly nice course and then hiked to the top for some out of this world views of the entire lake and beyond. Do yourself a favor and run to the rockwood cottages you won’t regret it. Thank you Kelsey and Josh for sharing your home and new friendship we hope to see you soon. - Mike and Christine

Sweet little cabins located on Moosehead Lake.The surrounding area is just beautiful. Our hosts Kelsey and Josh couldn’t have been nicer. Would have loved to stay longer than a week!
