Cabin vacation rentals in Penobscot River

We had a great time, nice tucked away cabin, hot tub was fantastic, and the space is super cute. Would recommend and would definitely stay again.

Lori’s is exactly what we need while visiting family over a holiday. She is very gracious to host us over Thanksgiving as the last occupants of the year. Even during a snow storm, her place is cosy and beautiful. This is our second year coming, and we love it every time. We would recommend it for those looking for a charming getaway from busy life. Thanks Lori!

We had a great family stay for our weekend of skiing. The Moosehead Cottage Resort is perfectly located near Greenville and only a 10 minute drive to Big Moose Mountain. The staff was super friendly and made us feel at home. The cabin (#1) was cozy and beds were comfortable. Our kids had a lot of fun at the common pool and spa area. There is some deferred maintenance in that area, but everything was functional. We had a great stay and would stay there again in the future.

We had a wonderful time at the cabin. The lake and surrounding forest were beautiful, and the hot tub was perfect for the chilly spring weather. The location is great, 20 minutes to Ellsworth and 45 to Acadia or Blue Hill. Shelby was a great and communicative host!

Host was very responsive and friendly. The home was a little out of the way from major spots in Maine (Acadia, Portland, etc...), however, it was a very nice place to settle down and rest with friends.

My husband and I came back to Maine to celebrate our first wedding anniversary, this cabin was the absolute most perfect place to do so! The photos are so beautiful, but arriving and walking into this space was unmatched! You can tell how much attention and intention is put into this cabin. I have never felt more relaxed, safe, and comfortable in an Airbnb before. I’m a bit of a germ freak and can’t sleep in most beds that aren’t my own but that wasn’t even close to being the case here! The space is SO clean, including the bathroom! For a detached space I cannot believe how cozy and clean it felt. Our fur baby came with us, she’s a medium sized dog, the space was so accommodating for her! There were treats (which she loved) and food bowls for her! The property is the perfect size to allow your fur baby to stretch their legs too! Indie especially loved the adult bean bag chair, we could not keep her off! We will 100% be coming back, so grateful for our stay. Thank you for having us!

We had a wonderful experience! We would definitely recommend to others and stay again when we are back in the MDI area! Thank you to our outstanding hosts!

The location is magical . Loved waking up and seeing the scenery. The trail was really well maintained given all the snow. We've had a wonderful hike to the pond seeing only nature, not one person on the trail. It was fun stopping and trying to identify all kinds of animal tracks along the path. We are thinking of coming back in the spring or summer. Thank you for muffins Toby and Peter!!!

It was the perfect little cozy place to stay while we were snowmobiling. Could not beat the price for the space we had! We will definitely stay again!

This cabin was very well kept, cleaned and comfortable. There were many accommodations there that were helpful for a week long stay. The owners were great to deal with and check in/check out were very smooth. If you’re looking for a place to stay in northern Maine this is it!

Great stay! Beautiful view and sunset from the cabin and a great warm space inside.

I loved this place! Enjoying coffee and meals outside on the deck overlooking the lake and beautiful surroundings of nature. I felt safe there and was a charming neighborhood. I loved that there were boats to use and a dock to watch sunset an autumn harvest moon over lake! Jess was the perfect host and made sure everything was great when I arrived. She was very helpful when I had any questions and I am looking so forward to going back there again! Thank you Jess for sharing this wonderful place!!!

Great stay; were very accommodating about our repeated, rather last-minute extensions of our stay. All I would say is that if you’re visiting in winter , you’ll definitely need 4 wheel drive to get to the house! But other than that, it was perfect for our needs and we really appreciated how accommodating Hui, Roger, and Cindy were of our changing plans. Very well stocked with cleaning supplies and kitchen things as well. Tub was really nice for my little one and we enjoyed the wood stove. Also very clear instructions and ultra quick response times. Very private. I’m sure in warmer months the fire pit outside area are really nice; as wintertime guests, once we got the car in, we appreciated being able to park so close and the absence of stairs or steps to navigate and the covered porch in front of the entry for loading and unloading.

Kimberly is a wonderful host! She made sure to check in with us and see that everything was fine, and informed us well about how to get to the home as well as all the amenities available to us and other things to watch out for (such as being off the grid, etc.). I would definitely come back again!

We’ve stayed here a couple of times, once under previous ownership. It was clean and a great stay for a long weekend of snowmobiling.

Had a great and peaceful stay. The place was very clean and had everything one needs for a relaxed vacation. Loved the nature all around and the environment it created to actually relax.

Couldn’t be happier with our stay! Michelle was a great host and the property was everything we wanted and more. We honestly found ourselves spending more time just enjoying the property and the surroundings then some of our planned activities. It was truly hard to leave and we would come back and stay in a heart beat!

My husband, toddler, dog and I had a tremendous stay at Joshua’s camp. The description matched the photos exactly—and quite honestly, the camp is even better in person. We loved our time here, and wish we’d had longer! It’s in a gorgeous location with endless opportunities for hiking (even outside of Baxter SP 🙂) within a reasonable distance nearby. We found it rustic, but it had everything we needed to be comfortable (even when the power went out during a windstorm). Joshua was a very responsive and communicative host, and we would love to stay here again!

We so enjoyed our stay in Maine! Andrea and Tooty were quick to answer questions and to take care of any needs. Beautiful cabin on the water - we hope to visit again!

We had a very restful three days at Rod’s lovely cabin. This is a fantastic place to stay for those seeking to experience the midcoast area for what it is (without all the tourist traps and hustle and bustle that you’ll find in Bar Harbor area). Don’t sleep on this gem!

amazing little cabin with a beautiful outdoor kitchen with stove and supplies! amazing stay

A beautiful spot that I could easily have stayed at for much longer! We enjoyed the large, comfy couch on a rainy day as well as the location and proximity to Belfast and Camden. The beds were cozy and the place was spotless.

Great place with a few need to know before you go items: the cabin is not marked with the address, the GPS says you have arrived when you are at the neighbor's cabin, and there was not a hair dryer. We would recommend coming in the day light to match the photos with the cabin and to check what you may need at the store. Overall, this is a great place worth visiting.

Great stay. Quick responses thru messages as well. Very accommodating 10/10
