Spring Break at the Lake
Our family enjoyed staying at this cabin over our spring break. The weather was cooler so the hot tub was a welcome past time in the afternoons & evenings. The owners put a lot of care into their property and it shows. There were plenty of kayaks, canoes, life jackets to select from and use. We enjoyed lunch on the back porch and took in the beautiful views of the lake. We would recommend staying here for the lake views, comfort, and convenience to the nearby town. We plan to visit again!

Cozy and Comfortable Cabin
My family (myself, my husband, and 2 daughters ages 14 & 11) had a wonderful time at The Owl's Nest. Dave and Pearle are amazing hosts - they provided so much information about the area and went above and beyond in more than one way for us! The cabin was exactly as described in a secluded cove right on the lake. It was so quiet and peaceful, and the owners have added so much to the cabin to ensure guests have a great experience. We enjoyed the hot tub, the substantial movie collection, outdoor games, classic video games and kayak despite the snowy weather! The pool access at nearly Garrett Community College was a huge bonus as well. The rooms are small but comfy and the cabin has plenty of furnishings and extras that allowed us to relax and worry about nothing! We'd love to come back to The Owls Nest again!
