Fantastic Cabin Rental!

The cabin setting is incredible, Full Southerly view of Unity Pond with a sand beach, lawn, picnic tables and chairs. The cabin has been redone and looks to be recent with great AC, internet, comfy beds and appliances. Was quiet and clean with all modern amenities other than a dishwasher. We will rent again and again and again! Full five stars and a great host who communicates well.

Perfect Little Getaway

Nate and Heather were wonderful hosts. They were so kind and communicated well. This was there perfect little getaway for our 5 year old. He stayed busy playing on the beach, finding turtles, going fishing, having fires, and going out in the kayaks.

Beautiful Cabin on the Water

This is a beautiful location on the water. It was nice to wake up to the flocks of geese and ducks cruising around the cove in the early morning. The cabin was wonderful... Recently remodeled and accurately listed on VRBO. A real treasure. Nathan and Heather were quick to answer any questions, and were very helpful. This was a fun experience for our family and we definitely look forward to staying here again in the future.

Classic Maine Lake Cabin Experience

We enjoyed our time at this cabin in Burnham and were sad we had only booked for one night. If your goal is to be out by a lake the way Mainers do it, you have found a great option. If you want quick access to a metro area or gourmet restaurants, this isn’t the place. Guests will do well to bring groceries since, once there, you won’t feel like leaving to find a restaurant. Owners even delivered on loons calling to each other in the morning.
