This is a wonderful, cozy little cabin that is remote enough to be private and peaceful, but close enough to town to be convenient as well. Highly recommended!

Lovingly Appointed Cabin

In an age of "Live Laugh Love" vacation rentals -- every property a generic flip, done up in neutral tones and mass-manufactured message art -- it was so refreshing to enter the Cabin Skowhegan, where everything seemed like a real live person had put it there. The photos of local sites, sometimes captioned. The worn-in but sturdy and inviting furniture, arranged for comfort. The quirky mug collection, clearly someone's pride and joy, hanging around the dining area. Supplies and provisions exactly where you need them. This cabin is no frills but so lovingly appointed. I would definitely come back.

Location

The location was great! Close enough to town to be convenient and far enough out to have a remote country feeling. We most likely will return. The cabin was rustic, which had it's charm.

Quaint Cabin

Larry hosted us for a week with our dogs while we were on a house-hunting expedition. Larry was a perfect host; very attentive but allowed us our space. The Cabin is very cozy and while there is no kitchen sink, the property details disclose this so we were prepared. It was a wonderful stay!

1 Week in the cabin

Cabin was beautiful and simple. Sitting in the rocking chair and looking at the stars at night were the best parts. It was needed to destress and get away from the busy city life. Nice and quiet area.
