Secluded, Dog-Friendly Lakefront Cabin on Pristine Lake, Maine, for Wonderfully Romantic Getaways to Nature
Newly expanded and renovated dog-friendly cabin on a small Maine lake that accommodates 5 people. Extreme makeover completed in May 2024. The new, 600 square-foot modern rustic cabin includes a bedroom/bathroom addition, all new windows and skylights, a full kitchen, a rebuilt and enlarged deck, electricity, and running water.
Please note that all guest reviews through 2023 apply to the original cabin (purchased in 2006 by the current owners) and not the renovated one.
We have a 7-night minimum during peak season (mid-June to mid-September) and a 3-night minimum during the off season (May to mid-June, and mid-September to early November). Happy to accommodate 2-day stays if the calendar is open close to your requested arrival date during the off season.
With two acres of land and dense woodland surrounding the rental, dogs will love exploring the property, especially if they like to swim.
The cabin has 250 feet of private lakefront for guests to enjoy in almost total seclusion. The water is very clean and good for swimming.
Birds seen from the property include Common Loons, Ospreys, Bald Eagles, Great Blue Herons, Spotted Sandpipers, Pileated Woodpeckers, Downy Woodpeckers, Black-capped Chickadees, Red-breasted Nuthatches, Dark-eyed Juncos, Winter Wrens, Ruby-throated Hummingbirds, several kinds of warblers, and more.
The renovated cabin has a bedroom with a queen-size bed and large cabinet for clothing, shoes, luggage, etc., and an adjacent full bathroom that includes a large, well-lit shower plus a washer and dryer. The kitchen is well-equipped and includes a small dishwasher, apartment-size fridge, gas stove/range, electric coffee maker, and microwave.
Outside, there is a large deck in full view of the water with 2 rustic, wooden chairs and a table that seats 4 people. Guests can sit out and enjoy the views, or head to the second deck that is on the water's edge. A canoe is provided along with plenty of dry firewood for the outdoor fire pit.
Our end of the lake is undeveloped, and we have just one immediate neighbor whose cabin is well-concealed from ours by trees. There is no light pollution, and the star gazing is outstanding. To help preserve this rare dark sky atmosphere, we have chosen not to install any exterior electric lights. (Please bring flashlights or headlamps for outdoor use, and plan on arriving during daylight hours if possible.)
Note for spring bookings: Black files are a problem in the woods of Maine during May, so please be aware if you are booking then.

This cozy, modern rustic cabin is on Six Mile Lake near Machias, Maine, on the North Coast, approximately 10 minutes from the town of Machias and 45 minutes from the charming fishing village of Lubec. It is a quiet and peaceful spot, ideal for glampers looking to get away from it all. Guests should note that there is no internet at the cabin and cell signals are not perfectly reliable but usually strong enough to provide a hotspot.
Jasper Beach with its stunning smooth stones is just 20 minutes away from the rental. Roque Bluffs State Park is nearby and offers guests miles of trails to explore. Cutler Coast Public Reserved Land is just a 35-minute drive from the rental, and Moosehorn National Wildlife Refuge is under an hour away. Also within approximately 45 minutes are the quaint town of Lubec, on a peninsula with spectacular ocean views, and Quoddy Head State Park with its stunning coastal hikes and one of the nation's most recognizable lighthouses.

This Maine rental is a wonderful spot for nature lovers and is perfect for glampers who love to explore. It is also a true dark sky location, offering outstanding opportunities for star gazing. Jasper Beach, just 30 minutes away, is a unique beach made up entirely of smooth stones. One of the best ways to take in the beauty of the area is to see it from the water. Sunrise Canoe and Kayak can arrange tours, and guests can also take out the canoe provided at this cabin.
Roque Bluffs State Park is home to one of the rare Down East sandy ocean beaches on one side and a freshwater lake on the other side of the road. In addition, it has miles of walking trails, a small playground and BBQ pits, presenting glampers with a perfect day out.
There is wonderful (and quite easy) hiking along the coast at Quoddy Head State Park in Lubec, about 45 minutes northeast from the cabin, where you can enjoy one of Maine's most photographed lighthouses and spectacular views of Maine's rocky coastline.
