Peaceful

We had a wonderful week at George's Pond. The view from the cabin is gorgeous. The cabin is close to Ellsworth and Acadia but far enough away from the crowds for peace and quiet. We would stay there again.

Family Get Away

My family needed a vacation to disconnect from the world and this was perfect! Everything was relaxed and natural. The water was beautiful and fun! Close to Acadia to fill the morning with activities, as well.

Amazing!!!

Our family of 6 (ages 82-11) absolutely LOVED our stay here. It is a beautiful cabin in a fantastic location. It’s small and rustic which was perfect for us. The kitchen was super well stocked. The stairs up to the lofts are steep but no trouble for our kids. The sleeping porch was a dream. Communication with the host was phenomenal - we had a few needs during our stay and she answered immediately.

Peace-filled getaway

George’s pond cabin was a lovely little getaway. The cabin is cozy and clean and perfectly placed on George’s pond. Kids and family enjoyed the kayaks, fishing (sunnies, pumpkinseeds and small-mouth bass abound!). Short distance from everything you need and late August has THE perfect weather. Would recommend for groups who are staying less than a week (not many places to put clothes/belongings, and no washer/dryer to help keep belongings to a minimum).

Peaceful Lake

The cabin was clean. The location was conveniently located in proximity to a gas station, groceries, restaurants, and Acadia. There was minimal boat traffic which made for a relaxing and quiet week. The fishing was very good for August. My husband caught several good size fish off the dock.

Great little cabin in a quiet, beautiful spot!

My family (self, husband, and 3 boys) love hiking vacations in the National Parks...but we don't love crowds. At about 40-50min outside Acadia National Park, this cabin was perfect. We could drive into the park early and hike, then come 'home' to George's pond and fall in! The view is spectacular, I loved boating and the boys loved the diving rock. The cabin felt more like you were borrowing a good friends family cabin than like a rental. Cozy decor and comfortable beds. We also spent a great deal of time reading on the deck around the propane fire pit. Great place for us all to recharge! We'll definitely come back. One trip to this part of Maine is not enough!

Peaceful retreat

The cabin is beautiful nestled amongst the pine trees overlooking the lake. Loved hearing the loons in the distance. We weren't informed that there was no television, so a little disappointed because it's football season, but there were lots of games to keep us occupied as we were there during hurricane Lee. Our host was concerned for our safety and requested us to leave on Saturday for the night, and we did so. However, our reimbursement for that night from VRBO has not been refunded to us at more than a week later. Overall, considering the weather, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at George's Pond and loved the food at Ruth and Wimpies. Best lobster we had!

Last Minute Maine Trip

This is a traditional Maine "camp", so don't expect too much. The property was clean but small. The bathroom is very small, and if there were more than the four of us it wouldn't have been enough. But it is manageable for a week or two. The kitchen is just barely enough to cook basic meals. The kitchen has all of the basic cookware and dishes you will need. Thankfully there is a gas grill on the deck that can also be used to cook meals, and it has the added advantage of overlooking the pond. You'll want to spend most of your time here outside. We also used the gas fire pit almost every evening as the temperatures were quite cool while we were there. The pond is great for swimming, kayaking, or boating. The location is also near Acadia National Park and other outdoor activities. If you are looking for a traditional Maine vacation "upta camp" then this is a great place.

Relaxing

The cozy cabin is beautifully decorated while keeping its rustic charm. The fireplace was a lifesaver as it was cold this past week. I enjoyed watching the wildlife and a family of turkeys spent the night in the trees around the cabin. Enjoyed our vacation here and recommend it highly

What a relaxing getaway

Perfect location for a quiet getaway to the Maine coast. Acadia National Park is about 30 minutes away. Rustic cabin was the perfect setting for peace and quiet. Beautiful lake with dock, kayaking available. Host was very informative, gracious and accommodating. Absolutely loved it.

Clean cozy cabin

We really enjoyed our week at George’s Pond Cabin. The cabin was very cozy, clean, and had everything we needed for our stay. We had a little hiccup at arrival with being locked out but between the property managers and the owners they made sure everything was taken care of. The kids loved the fishing and kayaking! We would for sure stay here again if we ever vacation in Maine again!

Fantastic Maine Camp

This was just the place to vacation with good friends! The camp has all you need for a summer getaway and more! Waking up to the sound of loons on the lake everyday was a treat! The pond is quietly active with duck families learning to swim and dive! And the sleeping porch is just a dream!

Such a serene place to rejuvenate!

We really enjoyed our stay. Everything was clean, comfortable furniture and quality linens. We loved the bed on the porch! The location felt very private and was quiet. The pond had plenty of fish and we enjoyed watching the birds and squirrels. It was a little distance from Acadia, but worth the drive in exchange for the quiet. It felt like a retreat!

Great Getaway

What a wonderful and relaxing week to unplug and be in nature. The house was cozy and worked well for the two of us. Danielle was great at communication and even gave us some good insight about things like grocery locations. Acadia is close enough for day trips. It was the perfect blend of pond and ocean.
