Dog-Friendly Lakefront Cabin with Private Dock, Epic Views of Lake & Mt Kineo

Rockwood Cabin on Moosehead Lake

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Wash your worries away on Moosehead Lake at this charming cabin, featuring an unbeatable lakefront location, views of the water and Mt. Kineo from your back deck, and a private dock for swimming, fishing, and boating fun! You can even bring the family dog.

Located just steps from the water on the central western shore of the lake, this cabin offers a quiet location free of the noise and distractions of town. The large, grassy yard is ideal for campfires, lawn games, and barbecues, and the pebble beach is great for swimming and wading.

This cabin is well cared for and has hosted vacationing families for generations. Rock away your mornings on the back deck admiring the view and go for a swim off the dock to feel refreshed. Use the fully equipped kitchen to cook up tasty meals and fire up the gas grill to cook up your fresh catch of the day. Lakeside dining is a must at the patio table on the dock. Get cozy every night next to the gas fireplace with a book or a show on the cable TV.

This is a vacation you're not likely to forget - book today!

Absolutely wonderful cabin on Moosehead Lake! So clean and comfortable. The pictures don’t even do it justice. This is a beautiful vacation spot for anyone looking to get away from everything and have a quiet and relaxing trip. I’d give it 20 stars if I could..I fell in love with Moosehead Lake after our wonderful time here.

Cabin on Moosehead Lake

We really enjoyed our stay. Beautiful views of the lake. Unfortunately, it was raining for about the first 24 hours that we were there, so we didn't get to enjoy the back deck. Quaint little place, but fulfilled our needs.

Nice cabin but Vacasa is very slow to respond, cabin need some basic updates

Beautiful view. Charming cabin. Comfortable. But improvements could be made. Check in was sketchy because the power was off. It was just about dark so we couldn't see. Called Vacasa but the support wasn’t very helpful. Miraculously the power came on about 20 minutes after we arrived. Vacasa support knew nothing about the property to help. Be prepared for dirt roads everywhere so bring your awd or 4wd. There are no kayaks or canoes to use. Any photos you see with some belong to the people next door. The furniture coverings are not in great condition so we used towels and sheets to cover them. There are not many electrical outlets so i would bring an extension cord and a surge protector. The outlets in the bedrooms are very old and loose and do not have 3 prong outlets. Doubtful they're up to code. The living area is very dark even with all of the lights on. It would be nice if the owners put in better lighting. It was pretty dark for reading in the sitting area at night. Be aware the shower is kind of plopped in the batroom and the walls are very flimsy, made of flexible plastic panels. The shower almost fell apart when one of us lost balace and grabbed the wall. But the oressure is good. One last thing is that the door locks are very inadequate. The only security is a small hook and eye that you can get at Ace Hardware for $2.39. There us a slide latch on the front door but it’s so flimsy i could probably kick the door in with my weaker leg. But keep in mind this is an old place with old stuff. Some of it is charming but a few made us think they need updating. I would stay again though. But i think a little money could be invested by the owners for better safety and security.

Perfect

This little slice of heaven is just what we needed for a getaway. Right on the water. The porch was perfect at night for listening to the loons and relaxing. The dock was perfect for fishing, and I wish we had stayed longer to enjoy the outdoor table area to eat meals. The main page says there is no internet, but there was great internet for us, a box right in the cabin, which was very nice, if you need it. There is a grill for cooking, and a nice big field for pets and kids to run around. The only thing that I was bummed about, most homeaway places I have stayed, there has been things leftover, such as ketchup, mustard, spices, tinfoil, that kind of stuff. All you have here are the minimums, plates, utensils, cups, etc. Bring your own coffee too! (Not sure if this is normal, but for me it was not) the 4 twin beds were a little odd too, for couples a queen in one of the rooms would be nice. BUT! Those are only my opinions. Otherwise, this was perfect and just what we needed! I would absolutely reccomend this property, and come back too!

Amazing Cabin - Amazing view

The cabin sits right on Moosehead Lake, feet from shore. The view of Mt. Kineo is amazing. We enjoyed the stay, it was quiet and had everything we needed. The internet worked fine and it had cable TV even though we didn't use it. Very clean and homey. We will be back we loved it.

Adorable little cabin right on Moosehead lake overlooking Mt. Kineo..

Highly recommend this property. Adorable, clean, and very private spot. The back porch is delightful to sit and take in the sites. They have provided all that you would need to make your stay enjoyable. Depth of water is a bit low for our pontoon so we had to get a slip at a local marina but it was close and friendly staff.
