Great short getaway
Cabin was just as it was described. Everything we needed. Stairs down to the water could use some maintenance. The dock and water were fantastic. My kids loves going out to the island. Overall great property. Would definitely come back.

A classic Maine "Cottage"
Great place to veg out. I would only add that people should look the listing over carefully, as this place is very basic--It's one of the things that we liked about it, but not everybody will. Also, stairs to the shore are very steep and the boat, while useable is very marginal. Not important to us, but might be to others.
Great, tranquil location, in a real Maine Camp; sunsets, swimming, and the sound of loons in the morning.

Super Funky Bug Palace
The shower required a phillips-head screwdriver to operate. The insect population both inside and outside of this cottage was out of control (spiders and carpenter ants). While the kitchen was clean, the rest of the cottage could use a good spring cleaning. Otherwise, our stay was enjoyable. The layout is unique to say the least. The screened in porch was a delight, except for the aroma of rodent urine on the chair cushions (hence the need for a good spring cleaning). The sunset view and the breeze off the pond were delightful.

Maine Camp
We had a very pleasant stay here at the Biscay Pond camp. The listing is accurate, as are the reviews. The camp does need some maintenance but the way we figured it, given the location, the pricing and the way camps in Maine just are (you go for the outdoor experience, not the guest amenities) it was fine by us. The screened porch overlooking the lake was a perfect space. A house booklet, with what to do with the garbage for example, would be useful.

Lovely location; house needs work
Classic rustic Maine camp on a lovely pond with tiny island to explore, outside charming villages and close to the beautiful Maine coast. House is neglected and in serious disrepair. Stove shorted out, water cooler flooded, roof leaked, shower faucet (hot) needs to be replaced and fireplace fills house with smoke unless there’s a roaring fire. Pantry, wood room and kitchen cupboards need to be cleared out of clutter. Cleat missing a screw and new line needed for anchor and boat. Mildew in bathroom, wood room and storage closet. Despite the property’s challenges, we loved the location, the view from the kitchen and screened porch and had a wonderful time kayaking (the house has a rowboat, we brought our kayaks) swimming, fishing, sunning and exploring the nearby towns.

Unexpected
Loved the porch and the Biscay Pond view & swimming ! !
But there is no way we would have rented the camp if we knew about the stairs situation! We hated having to walk up those stairs at night to use the bathroom/ kitchen.The outdoor 'steps' down to the pond were kind of scary too- a couple are tippy.
We had some problems also while there, but didn't want to call some out of state number .And they should have already known about the problems from the cleaners/ caretakers---
The futon was broken! When we sat down the left side slid back & away from wall (where it had been propped to stay up).It is missing something that braces it to stay in the upright sofa position.
Both trash cans were FULL when we went to take out our bag of trash 4 days into our stay.Someone did come later in the week. But trash should be empty for new renters ! And there should be a note telling when trash day is and what if any recycling is necessary.
Outside doors were obviously new-the cardboard was piled up beside the shed. The door that opens out to 'back 'of cottage & clothesline cannot be opened from inside the cottage.It ONLY OPENS FROM OUTSIDE! Looks like it's stuck in the casing..
