We will go back!
The house was spacious and clean. The kitchen was the best equipped of any vacation rental we ever had. There was easy access to the lake right out back via a small dock and very nice, safe beach area. Beautiful views across the lake, and very close to the restaurants in town. We will definitely be back next year!

Excellent Moosehead Lake House
My family (of 5) had a great vacation at this lake house. The house was very clean and all amenities worked great. This made a great first impression and allowed us all to get comfortable very quickly. The beds and linens were hotel quality and really made a difference
As for the location, the lake access was very beautiful and convenient. This made for relaxing mornings, afternoon swimming / kayaking & beautiful sunsets. The house is very close to Greenville Center shops and restaurants. It is also located close to area attractions and allowed us to balance our time w exploring and relaxing.
All around great experience and will do again soon.

Location Location Location!
This property is perfect for those who want to be on the water! The dock was great for our 18 ft fishing boat. There is a well protected shallow swim area for young children. The lake water is clean. Fish can be seen from the dock
The home has lots of windows for unobstructed views of sunsets. It is in a safe area. Bedrooms and such are as advertised on the VRBO. There is an outdoor grill that works well and there is a picnic table and chairs. The kitchen is well stocked.
The house was clean on arrival.
Would definitely rent again!

Friends weekend at the lake
Our first visit to Moosehead Lake, mid-November, was great fun. The lake house was perfect, very clean, great location and beautiful views. We enjoyed the local area with great hikes, nice selection of shopping, and uncrowded restaurants.
Although we didn't see a moose, and the welcome binder was a bit outdated, we highly recommend this vacation spot. Thank you!

Cute house conveniently located for snowmobiling and ice fishing. It’s also minutes away from stores and restaurants. The house was a comfortable size for our 2 families.

Wonderful Week!
We had a wonderful week at Moosehead. The property was beautifully located on the water and close to town. We enjoyed our stay so much I almost hate to leave a positive review because it will make it so much harder to book this lovely cottage in the future! But we would definitely rent again.
Two minor notes for travel planning: there is no place to eat meals outside (e.i. picnic table or patio set) or to air dry damp beach towels/swimwear.
