About this property

Cozy 1 bedroom cabin a few steps from Gardner Lake

Lakefront cabin steps from Gardner Lake, Whiting, Maine. Tile floors, wood interior, Deck/ grill. Shared water access with adjacent cabin. Wi Fi. No cable. Monthly discounts. Shorter or longer stays may be available by contacting owner. No pets. No smoking or vaping. One bedroom and only one bathroom. New queen size bed in bedroom and new full size sleeper sofa in living area. Site says the bedroom sleeps 4 but the bedroom sleeps 2 and the sleeper in the living area sleeps 2.
Awesome sunsets from the deck. The moon rise is often hidden behind the cabin but can often be seen once it has come up and sometimes in the morning in the fall and spring over the lake. Osprey and Eagles are often seen fishing in the cove.
We have a beaver swimming the cove this year. Unfortunately due to insurance, I am unable to offer the Kayaks and canoe at at this time. Sunrise kayak and canoe rents and will deliver. Swimming. Bring water shoes. Lily Pad during summer season for use. Large and small mouth bass, pickerel, perch and salmon.

Great cabin on beautiful lake

This small cabin on Lake Gardner is just as advertised - a cozy cabin. I was pleasantly surprised at how nice it was. The bedroom is small but we slept the best we have for our whole trip. It’s nothing fancy, but a great base camp to explore this area of Maine. I would recommend.

Wonderful

The doors were very squeaky (bathroom and entrance) difficult to be quiet while others sleeping. I am sure that it was due to the weather. Humidity and such. Other than that we were pleased with our stay.

Very cute on the water cottage!

The property was exactly as the post described. It's right on the water (and the water is relatively shallow in front of the property so great to dip your feet in or go out into deeper water!). It offers a beautiful view of the sunset. The cottage has all the toiletries you might need as well as kitchen ware. We were able to cook and and grill without a problem. It does share the pier with the cottage right next door so if you're looking for a completely private getaway, you may want to look elsewhere. It's simple but very quaint inside and Mary was kind and is very informed about the area and gave great suggestions for places to go. We would definitely stay here again!

GREAT STAY

Host is amazing. Location is phenomenal and the porch is to die for. If you are planning to cook I would bring your own pans and if you have 4 people and want to eat inside you might need to be flexible/creative with seating. Place felt very clean and I have a high standard. Would recommend and would book again.

About the host

Hosted by Mary Jane Good

Host profile image
I grew up in Camden, Maine. I fell in love with Downeast Maine when I taught science at Washington Academy. I love to fish, swim and hike. Retired in 2022 from my law practice and now spend my summers taking care of the lakefront rentals. I keep a Lily pad out for swimming and fun for the kids. I enjoy seeing guests sitting on the deck and relaxing as the sun sets.

Why they chose this property

Sunsets in the summer. Booming ice in the spring and fall as it builds and melts. I love being able to swim after the sun sets and the lake quiets down, especially when there is a full moon. Eagles, Kingfishers, Canadian geese, mergansers and osprey are common. Loons visit the cove and you can sometimes hear the loons calling as well as coyotes howling at night. The lake can be very calm but can kick up into 4+ foot waves. Listening to the many migrating birds on morning walks on the camp road and Gardner Lake Road is great with the Merlin app. A short 5 minute drive brings you to a portion of the Downeast Trails where you can walk from the Rim Road to Machias through marshy areas with Eagles, geese, cormorants, kingfishers, ducks, great blue heron, snowy egrets in the fall and more.

What makes this property unique

The unobstructed lake view and direct water access.
