THINGS TO NOTE * In Maine, winter isn’t just a season—it’s an adventure! To navigate our snowy roads like a true Mainer, we highly recommend an all-wheel drive vehicle. * While we strive to keep the cabin spotless, you're in the heart of rural Maine, where even our best efforts can't keep every curious critter away. You may spot an insect or two indoors. Consider them your rustic cabin companions—here to complete the authentic lakeside experience! * Water is filtered well water and safe to drink. That said, we know everyone has their own taste preferences, so feel free to bring bottled if you prefer.
