This location worked well for a weekend Family Reunion (off-site). We enjoyed having our own kitchen and having other family members staying at the other Vrbo on property. With our toddler, we were a little nervous with the gap between the stairs and the garage. The bedroom set up worked for us as we had 3 adults and one child, but two adults would have been tight in the 2nd bedroom if that had been our grouping. Overall, we had a good stay and were thankful to find this property available for the weekend we needed. It was fun to be in the woods of Maine!
My wife and I were looking for a quiet, private and relaxing place to stay which was conveniently located in Maine. That is exactly what we got when we stayed at this property. Andrea, the property manager was great and helped ensure that we had a good visit.
Instead of staying at a stuffy hotel in Bangor, we opted to stay at this cozy location for our stay for UMaine graduation. It did not disappoint! Comfortable and clean with everything we needed. Andrea was great with communication. There is nothing better than sitting on the porch dinking coffee while listing to the orchestra of birds. This is a peaceful retreat.
This is a great property, close to all of our destinations. The property manager, Andrea, was extremely helpful, including his recommendation’s for dinner close to our destinations.
Our rental was exactly as described. The property manager was a perfect host. The rental was the cleanest. All the ammenities met our needs. The fees were really reasonable compared to other rentals.. We would definitely stay here again.
Bernhard Martin was a fine host. His unit was large, clean, and well equipped. He had a large bonfire one evening where we met his neighbors and enjoyed a variety of food and drinks. His associate Andreas let us use his kayaks on beautiful Pushaw Lake. If you like swimming in lakes and kayaking it is a great location.
We enjoyed a little bit of Swiss hospitality in the middle of Maine.
The property is such a peaceful and serene environment its truly a gem. The caretaker was so kind, considerate and patience that made us feel so welcome. Gracious to accept our grandchildren unexpectedly after a terrible experience with American Airlines and went above and beyond anything we expected to help entertain the children with games to play outside as well as the private access to the lake with kayaks. The house was immaculate when we arrived. Best bnb experience, worth every penny.
We stayed with our family and loved the unit. Bernard was super helpful and checked in with us multiple times to see if we needed anything. The unit super nice and clean. We are planning another visit later this summer!!

Great Launchpad for Acadia
The space was very comfortable & had everything we could possibly need! It’s delightfully off the beaten path & we loved the drive through the tree-lined roads everyday marveling at the gorgeous fall colors. Google maps puts the house further down the street than it actually is, so pay attention to the numbers. The only thing we found a bit odd (especially during covid times) was the tour when we first arrived, I think that should really have been optional. I’ve stayed in a lot of vacation rentals and this was the first time someone toured me around the apartment. 2 bedrooms, a bathroom & a kitchen - not a lot to figure out, and we’d just been driving for 9 hours, we wanted to unpack & settle in. He also didn’t wear a mask, & instead of trying to make us comfortable by putting one on, he just said “oh I haven’t worn one in a long time.” We we’re less than thrilled and couldn’t wait for him to leave. Not sure why they didn’t just supply the code in the check-in instructions as a covid-safe check-in instead.
We thoroughly enjoyed staying here. The property is on a quiet road just across the street from the lake. The property manager was extremely nice and helpful.
This property is exactly as described. It was very clean and comfortable. We used it as a quiet, secluded home base to explore the Acadia area. That area is very busy so having a quiet place to come back to was perfect for us. The caretaker met us and showed us the property and was available if we’d had any issues which we didn’t. Bangor is just 10-15 minutes away which is nice also.
My wife and I return to Bangor every year to visit our friends. We are familiar with the Pushaw Lake area and wanted to stay in this area. The apartment was across the road from the lake and Andrea let us know there were kayaks and a canoe at his home on the lake that we could use if we liked. Great stay.
It's was phenomenal! Great location. Access to the lake and was able to use the kayaks and canoe. The water was perfect. So relaxing. I wish we could have stayed longer. The property manager Andrea was great. He was very welcoming and accommodating. We will definitely try and stay with them again. Thank you so much!

Expectations exceeded…property manager met us upon arrival and gave a quick tour and made a couple of requested recommendations for places to eat. Everything was clean and items were well stocked.
Property manager was very helpful, went over and above , making things available and providing information. This was a great central location for us to do Acadia and White water rafting , requires some easy walking to get to Lake area. Beautiful rugged area and peaceful!
Great, very clean and spacious apartment that has everything you will need to have a relaxing stay away from home. Everything is in like new condition and we loved that it was very clean. A little down the road (3 minutes driving/10 minutes walking) you hav access to a large lake and I was amazed by its beauty and quietness. You are allowed to use the canoes and paddle boards there and my family and I had a fun time trying them out. We only stayed for a couple of days but we know there was much more on the property and in the surrounding that we could have explored. I am amazed once again about all the beautiful places the US has to offer and that we have no idea existed. Push away Lake is definitely one of those places. The property is a little off the beaten path, but just a short drive from town and still in drivable distance to Arcadia National Park. Andrea, the caretaker of the property, is a really kind and caring person. He showed us around and was checking to see how we were doing. He is very easy going and also helped us with the boats when we wanted to try them. All in all a great experience.
This is a perfect getaway. It's remote, clean, and easy. Can't recommend enough!
