The cozy cabin is more house than cabin which is good thing. The space was neat and clean both inside and outside. The location was great with a small beach and dock. Mama duck paraded her brood of ducklings for us to admire. If you’re a fan of loons Branch Lake will not fall short.The host made everything easy.

We absolutely loved our three night stay!! the cabin is definitely a home, it’s very clean and comfortable and inviting! The property is very private and lovely, beautiful flowers, and birds all around! And the lake is perfect, we swam, went on the canoe, kayaked and just thoroughly enjoyed our stay with our two children. The hosts were very kind and responsive to any questions we had, and the house provided everything we needed, including one of the most comfortable beds I’ve ever slept in.! Thank you for sharing your home with us. We will definitely be back.

10/10 — Absolutely Wonderful Stay!We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this beautiful lakefront home! The setting was peaceful, private, and incredibly relaxing. Being right on the lake with a fire pit and a grill made it so easy to enjoy our time there and cook all of our meals at the house.The home was very, very clean and had everything we could possibly need. All of the necessary essentials were provided, which made the entire stay comfortable and stress-free.The hosts were absolutely amazing — friendly, accommodating, and wonderful to work with. You can tell they truly care about their guests and their property.We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay and would definitely come back! If you’re looking for a beautiful, peaceful, private getaway on the lake, I highly recommend this home.10 out of 10 for sure! We can’t wait to come back!

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this lake house. I was expecting to travel around and see Maine sights, and only come “home” at night. But my kids loved the location so much they asked that we just stay on site for an entire day. We spent the day fishing off the dock and making good use of the available kayaks and canoe. The lawn games were an added bonus. The water pressure of the shower was outstanding, and never ran out of hot water (my husband & kids love to take way too long and I’m usually the one getting a cold shower). Husband says he’s never slept so good as in that bed. I’ll admit that, although it seems just adequate at first glance, that bed and comforter feel quite luxurious at the end of a long day. The host is wonderful with communication. 10/10, I would love to stay here again.
