We enjoyed the beautiful, peaceful location. Great dock, kayak, canoe, fire pit with Adirondack chairs. The house was very comfortable and well equipped with everything we needed. Several living areas where we could spread out and relax. The view of the lake from the front room was amazing. Two nice decks and outdoor furniture. Just wish there had been a bedroom downstairs near the bathroom. But, we would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful two weeks at Holbrook Pond

We go to Holbrook Pond every year but this was our first time at John and Martha’s camp and we couldn’t be happier. The location and views are wonderful, the house is clean, comfortable and has everything you will need and the hosts are welcoming and available if you have questions. Overall a terrific stay in a beautiful place with terrific hosts. We will be back. Thank you John and Martha!

Perfect spot

Adorable cottage with an amazing view of the pond. Main floor very spacious, large kitchen, adorable decor with attention to detail. Set up to have a fire in the wood stove or outside right next to the pond. So relaxing and cozy! Owner is in main house next door and came and introduced himself when we arrived. Just the right amount of off the beaten path but still convenient to Bangor and local shops. We hope to return!

Great place for a family vacation!

Very nice property and location to multiple Maine attractions. The view of the lake is amazing. Had plenty of room for our family of 5 and guests that visited us during our stay. The kitchen offered plenty of space to prepare meals. Would stay here again in the future. The owners were super nice and made sure we had what we needed during our stay. There is a charcoal grill there which is a plus. The Wi-fi signal is weak, but we were on vacation so we survived.
