Beautiful Cabin Retreat

My family and I spent a week here and had an amazing time. We enjoyed the quiet pond everyday! We were almost always the only ones in the water. The kayaks we such a wonderful bonus. Still close enough to get what you need but secluded enough to relax and not worry about the rest of the world. We had one of our best vacations here.

Quiet, charming retreat.

We found the perfect place with the right combination of relaxation and outdoor activities. Center Pond is peaceful, the house is immaculate, and there is plenty to do in the area. Our busy NJ family (including teenagers- tough critics) had a wonderful week in this well stocked, charming home. We even enjoyed the long winding back roads to get to groceries and ice cream!

Great Lake Vacation

We thoroughly enjoyed our week at Ralphs place. We swam and used the kayaks. Great floats available for our use. The kids loved fishing from the dock. Kitchen had anything that you could imagine you might need. We used the grill everyday and enjoyed the campfire. Peaceful area on quiet pond

Perfect Retreat

This cottage was the most beautiful we have ever rented in both Vermont and Maine. The attention to providing guests the very best is appreciated! This trip we were able to visit a few new hiking/climbing spots in the area. There is so much to be explored in this quiet, beautiful area. The view every morning and evening on Center Pond is well worth the trip from NJ!

Loved this place

The cabin and property were beautiful. It was clean, very well appointed and comfortable. Ralph was quick to respond to any questions or issues that arose. The kayaks, dock, hammock and firepit were the icing on the cake and where we spent most of our time given the perfect weather we had for the week. Highly recommend.

Center Pond

Excellent week at Center Pond. Very nice property and quiet. Owner is very attentive if needed. Beautiful area. Would recommend visiting Stutzman's Farm, Peace Love and Waffles. and Turning Page Farm. Mt. Kineo and Borestone Mountain (Audubon Sanctuary) are also great if you want some easy hikes (Note: somewhat physically challenging if not in decent shape).
