Large Secluded Cabin on the Lake - Now booking 2+ night stays

This beautiful log cabin sits beside East Pond in Smithfield Maine. With direct access to the lake, you can hit the lake first thing in the morning and play all day. Or, stick closer to home and drop a line off the dock for some good old-fashioned fishing. Swimming, boating, fishing, or relaxing in the sun, however you like to relax, we have it here at Fish Upon A Star Cabins.

The Central Maine area also offers so many opportunities for indoor and outdoor fun. The cabin is centrally located to Augusta, Waterville, Skowhegan and Belgrade Lakes so you can discover all our area has to offer!

This two floor cabin boasts 4 cozy but spacious bedrooms, a large kitchen, spacious sitting room and dining room with seating for 10. The wrap around screened-in porch includes two seating areas for chatting the evening away and a dining table for meals or for family game nights.

In the warmer months, you will find a gas grill and a charcoal grill, two outdoor seating areas and a dining table. The lake side seating area circles a firepit, looking out over the private dock and swimming area. Kayaks, a canoe and pfd's are available for you to get out onto beautiful East Pond for a day of sightseeing and sunshine. Pontoon Boat and jet ski rentals are also available for longer excursions.

In colder weather (weather permitting), direct lake access offers opportunities for ice fishing, snowmobiling, and nordic skiing. Bring your own equipment or rent from a local outdoor goods shop. Spend the day playing in the snow and curl up at night by the cozy gas fireplace. There's something for every season here on the lake. :)
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

We had an amazing winter weekend here with friends. The cabin was spacious, cozy, and exactly what we were looking for—secluded, peaceful, and right on the lake. Perfect setup for an ice fishing weekend, but just as great for relaxing by the fire, cooking together, and unplugging from real life for a bit.Everything was clean, well maintained, and thoughtfully stocked. The host was responsive and easy to work with, which made the whole stay seamless. Waking up to the quiet lake and woods was a highlight.If you’re looking for a true Maine getaway with plenty of space for a group and a great balance of comfort and outdoors, this place delivers. We’d absolutely come back.

We really enjoyed Amy's cabin, everything was perfect! The kitchen is well-equipped and has everything. We enjoyed walking on the ice (the ice was thick and solid) and sledding. There is also a small mountain within 30 min for skiing and cross-country. The house is perfect for family getaways!

If I could give it 10 stars, I would! A wonderful cabin, beautifully appointed with everything you need and more. Plenty of towels, dishes, bedding…even the firewood was provided! Amy made the check in and the check out process super easy & convenient. Great quiet & peaceful location. Beside the gorgeous foliage on East Pond, we saw loons, beavers, eagles and deer! It was a perfect week!

The host was amazing. The cabin was well provisioned, no need to buy supplies. Enjoyed the whole stay beautiful view. Loved the proximity to the water, fire pit, and the kayaking. The cabin was just the right size for our family. Close enough to town and supplies but far enough to be quiet and peaceful.

The photos don’t do this house justice. It was perfect for 7 of us (3 adults and 4 teenagers). The living room had plenty of comfortable seating for movie nights. The outside covered wrap around porch was great for a morning coffee and quiet read before the kids got up. The house is so well appointed, anything you need you will find. The pond is really large (we were looking up what classifies a lake vs a pond) and super clean. If you’re looking for a quiet out of the way escape, Amy’s house is perfect.
I got a kick out of spotting the whimsy around the property

Fantastic Home for Colby College or Family Events

Book this house, you will not regret it! We rented this for our youngest daughter's Colby graduation. Amy is very responsive and so easy to deal with. While the pictures of the home look great on line, they do not do it justice. First of, it was spotless when we checked in. It is spacious and well laid out. The kitchen was equipped with anything you could need or want. There is a charming path down to the beach area where Amy had laid up wood for us in the firepit and there are lots of chairs to relax and listen to the loons calling. The screen porch would be ideal for families with kids to play after dark or in case of inclement weather. We didn't get to spend much time in the house as there were lots of grad activities, but the house is well stocked with books a, games and DVDs .We have had 2 kids go through Colby and have rented many houses over the years and hands down this was the best one! We'd go back in a heartbeat.
