Absolutely adorable cabin!

This is the cutest cabin we have ever rented, and we have stayed in quite a few! Very clean, great location, lots for the kids to do. Ethan, the owner, was super responsive and answered all of our questions right away.

This was the second year we rent this cottage and we will probably rent it again. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to rent a great cottage on a great lake. The hosts are super about having the things you need to make your vacation special. Special thanks to them for another wonderful stay.

Absolutely love!!

This place was AMAZING. We will absolutely be back - our kids loved it so much, they asked if we can come here every summer from now on. Perfectly located - quaint and quiet but close enough to go to Orono/Old Town or Bangor for dinner or even day trip to Ft Knox and Bar Harbor easily. And I can’t say enough about the camp - all the amenities you need but still with cozy lake comfort.

Perfect spot to relax

We all enjoyed the beautiful spot right on the water. The camp was clean and had everything we needed or wanted plus thoughtful extras (bottled water and Netflix). The hammock was a favorite spot! We will definitely be back!

My husband is very particular about the bed and he was comfortable. (This never happens) I loved sitting in the rocking chairs and enjoying the view. The pots and pans are high quality and made cooking a breeze.

Going Above and Beyond

We have stayed at many vacation rentals over the years. This was by far, the best experience we have had. The host (Ethan) when above and beyond in providing everything we could possibly need. In addition, the property was perfect for us. It was a wonderful place to get away and unwind.

Peaceful Retreat

The cottage is a wonderful place to get away and relax. The property is in a beautiful spot on Pushaw lake. The cottage itself is charming. It is an authentic Maine cabin but with all of the modern conveniences that we are used to. The owners stocked it with everything that we needed for our stay. The owner was very responsive and helpful. We would love to visit again sometime soon.

Beautiful, quiet setting

Despite the rain, we enjoyed our stay at the cottage. Very quiet and met some neighbors and their dog who were very nice. The cottage was nicely decorated and it seems Ethan thought of everything. The beds were comfortable and the weather was seasonable so we didn’t need any heat or a/c. The lake was very quiet post Labor Day. Will have to come back with better weather to enjoy the lake more. Highly recommend.

Amazing getaway

Cottage is very cozy and welcoming. It has everything you might need for your stay. Grill outside works perfect too. Dock and fire pit were the plus. We spend all our nights at the fire watching the sunset. Lake is very clean and warm even in mid September. Unfortunately we weren’t able to use a kayaks or canoe due to weather but I am sure we will come back another time. Also First time we watch the loon so close. Thank you.

Recommend 100%

We had a great week at this wonderful cottage on Pushaw Lake. The owners have thought of everything someone could need/want. We brought our boat and having a dock was very convenient. We fished every day and my husband caught many bass and also some pike. Two of the pike he caught were over 10lbs. There were lots of loons and eagles. The sunsets were spectacular. We hope to rent again in the future

Slice of Heaven

Everything was perfect. The house was spacious, clean, and well appointed. The host was communicative and there was never a point where we thought, “oh I wish the house had this…” Nevermind the beautiful view, porch, dock, and lake. We enjoyed a few local attractions like the Orono bog walk and farmers market, and ventured into Bangor, but mostly we just cooked at the house while looking at the water. I highly recommend booking here and am grateful to the hosts for sharing their Alice of heaven.

Charming lakeside cabin

This adorable cabin had everything my husband and I needed. Beautiful lakeside view with kayaks to leisurely tour the shoreline of Lake Pushaw. We enjoyed the fire pit several nights. Ethan is a great host…. Very communicative and helpful. I had inquired before we got there about ice and he put two bags in the freezer before we got there. He also left the kitchen light on for us since we were coming in late at night. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to return!

35th anniversary week

Ethan and Elizabeth didn’t miss a trick in making this cottage feel like our own. We drove up just as the sun set. Lake Pushaw is quiet, tranquil and everyone you meet waves hello as if they known you. The property is well-kept and everything is ready to use whether it was extra bedding or camping chairs, games or kayaks. They supplied everything - even steak seasoning for the grill. Having dinner that night facing the lake was perfect. Their info binder was clear and included ideas for trips or meals. Communication was great! Their cottage made our 35th anniversary even more special. Li & Erich- Huntington, NY

The pictures do not do the property justice. It was beautiful and the only sounds were Loons, and other wildlife. Check in was seamless and so many additional comforts were included we felt like family guests... not strangers. We watched sunrises and sunsets, went kayaking, and the hammock was a perfect place for shady naps. The beds were comfortable and the linens and pillows were fresh. Every item for cooking and serving were available and I loved the grill. We used it every day. We made memories for a lifetime and we cannot wait to come back!
