Wonderful location
This place was wonderful for an April visit! The location was lovely and the place was cozy and warm. Host responded quickly to our communications. There was some wind damage to the home while we stayed, and someone was there to repair it quickly. It didn't affect our stay, but they were prompt. We were disappointed that a canoe was NOT available as included in listing. Once we arrived and asked, we were told it was being repaired. Not a deal breaker, but I would inquire specifically before booking if that is important to you.

Lake Pushaw Retreat
My husband and I were in Maine with our two boys to check out the U of Maine. This place was the perfect home base while we were there. Cozy, roomy and lots of great board games! We had a great time and will stay there again when we go back.

Wonderful lakeside home.
Cozy, warm, (it was February!), rustic, and beautiful! The sofas were comfortable and the view terrific. Summertime on the big enclosed porch would be stellar.

Lakeside perfection
This sweet lakeside cabin was perfect for our family! The owner was so great and the house exactly as we expected. We came to visit U Maine and didn’t want a hotel stay instead we got a cozy cabin with a gorgeous view that fit our family and felt like home! Would recommend and stay again!

July vacation
Property was even better than the listing. Clean, nicely decorated and updated, great waterfront/beach area with a canoe, kayaks, paddle boards. Kids and adults all had fun in the water in the afternoons after we had gone out and enjoyed Maine during the day.
