This was the perfect little cabin! We loved how close it was to everything and yet was a secluded little piece of heaven away from the crowds. It was pretty, spotless and so comfortable. It had everything we needed and more! Gus the dog was so sweet we loved his little visits and Laura was so wonderful in sharing lots of ideas and information about the area. We can't wait to return!!
We so enjoyed our week at this wonderful peaceful setting on Lermond Pond, and the cottage had everything you would need. Laura was a great host and communicator and offered several suggestions of restaurants to try and nearby attractions to check out. We would not hesitate to stay there again.
Perfect stay at thoughtfully designed cabin home right on beautiful lake and deck with canoe; modern appliances and other charms (games, firepit,etc) Hosts were responsive and welcoming, as was Gus their dog. We would definitely stay again.
What an amazing place to relax and unwind! The hosts, Laura & Blaine thought of everything to make sure we had the best stay! From the amazing views from the cottage to listening to the loons on the dock, we couldnât have enjoyed ourselves more! Highly recommend!!
Spent 4 great days at the âBunkhouse â and it was really nice. Quiet with great views over the water. This is a really nice rustic cabin. The roads leading in are in good shape but are gravel in places.Not a problem but be aware.
Would highly recommend for a couple.
A peaceful and beautiful cottage nestled a few feet from the water's edge. Everything you need for a relaxing stay to recharge and revive was provided. A good nights sleep is guaranteed in a very comfortable bed and the cottage was well equipped, including comfortable chairs inside and out to enjoy the view and the calls of the loons.
My husband and I just returned from our 20 year anniversary trip to Maine. Our stay in Laura's cabin was perfect. We were close to the towns that we wanted to visit and yet felt like we were in a secluded and quiet retreat. Being able to wake up in the morning and drink our coffee while looking over the lake was wonderful. We would definitely stay here again!
The cabin was just as described, very cozy, right on the water.
It had everything we needed to enjoy our stay.
Laura and Blaine were very accommodating.
Laura gave very helpful suggestions for places to visit including a place to buy the freshest lobsters and clams from a lobsterman of 50+ years!!!
If your looking for a relaxing getaway this is the place!!
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Bunkhouse. It was the perfect place to relax and enjoy all that Maine has to offer. The Bunkhouse was conveniently located to Camden and Rockport. The owner, Laura, was the best on providing info where to explore, dine and even a lesson on e-bikes! We will definitely be back for another stay. Highly recommend. Thank you Laura for making our stay the best Maine vacation yet.
Our goal in staying here was to unwind and recover from a very hard and stressful eighteen months and this place did not disappoint. Definitely ten out of ten stars! And Laura was so very wonderful and patient, especially with all of our questions. Laura is simply a very nice lady and a great host. It was the best vacation we have ever had and we definitely plan on going back.
What a wonderful little retreat, literally steps from the water! Convenient location for outings to Camden and Acadia. Could not ask for a more serene environment to start the day with a cup of coffee and end each one with a glass of wine on the dock or by the fire. You are completely surrounded by the beauty of nature and the cabin has everything you need. Laura was super helpful! Would highly recommend for a couple looking to connect and recharge.
We were totally pleased beyond our expectations, a fantastic private location with all the amenities supplied for a comfortable stay. Canoeing ,swimming, fishing right at your doorstep.
Laura and Blaine were great hosts , very accommodating , with emphasis on making sure we had everything needed to have one of the best vacations we have had.
We have used VRBO numerous times and this experience was the best we have had. I would highly recommend this for any couple who wants to have a total relaxing vacation.
This is a perfect VRBO for a couple. Comfy king size bed, quaint & homey decor, compact kitchen with dishwasher &!full-size refrigerator, updated shower, washer & dryer, outdoor grill . . . Offering the best view of Alfred Pond (really a lake) steps from the door. Close to Camden and Rockland. Second time that we have rented the place. Thumbs way up!
Me spouse and I spent 8 days at the Bunkhouse. It's a great waterfront cabin. Check in was simple. There is a comfortable king size bed. The kitchen is well equipped for cooking.
Also a nice Weber gas grill on the the porch.
The town of Hope is well located. We hiked several of the nearby trails. We made trips into Union, Belfast. Camden, Rockport, and Rockland.
Found the area has some good restaurants.
Overall very enjoyable.
This place is EXACTLY what we needed. The cabin is a great size, super cozy and comfortable. Very clean and stocked with necessities as well as games and puzzles, a large TV and plenty of spaces to curl up with a book, or like we did, just sit and soak in the beauty. Quiet, but we were early in the season. The owners are close by for anything you need, even gave us some really great recommendations. They are a very cool couple who know so much about the area! We wanted a getaway, in a cabin on a lake/pond, where we could relax and listen to the loons, and this place DELIVERED.
This is our 2nd stay at the Bunkhouse. The perfect location and perfect hosts. The weather wasnât that favorable but it didnât matter. We still enjoyed what the area offered. Laura suggested going to the Botanical Garden in which we did. Well worth it. The highlight of our stay was Lauraâs dog, Gus. He started our day with a visit in the morning and ended our day with a visit at night. Such a bonus! Looking forward to another stay at the Bunkhouse.
As we were bringing in our luggage, we were greeted with a friendly "hello" from her deck. Laura made us feel welcomed from the start, and then her husband, Blaine, came out to join her. Within a few minutes, Gus came down to meet us. Gus is a Bernadoodle who is part of the welcoming committee.
The cabin is small, yes, but very clean, efficient, and homey. Our favorite part was the view of the lake...can be easily seen whether you are at the table or sitting on the sofa. So close you can almost touch the water from the steps.
Thank you, Laura and Blaine for allowing us and many others to enjoy this part of Maine, the way life should be.
Give our best to Gus and Gracey (her Corgy). Hope to see you next year!
Scenic, remote location thatâs perfectly located close to Camden, Rockport, Rockland, and Acadia.
Very comfortable and had everything I needed. Highly recommend!
Perfect place to work while gazing out at the beautiful lake. Loved the comfort and decor. Easy communication with the owner. Her dogs were great, too, and came to check on me periodically. I plan on returning.
This was our 1st time visiting Maine and I will have to say, this little cottage was the perfect little getaway spot; so cozy and peaceful. The view was amazing, right from the living room. Laura was a great host! She text us first thing morning of check in with a video of how to get to the property, which was perfect when arriving in the dark. She answered quickly to any questions we had and followed up with us about our lost luggage. The cottage was clean and had everything we needed. Such a perfect place to unwind and recharge. Would definitely stay again!
What a sweet little cottage. The view and having the lake just outside the living room was so peaceful. There was another little living room space at the back of the cottage,however, never even used it. With this view you donât need it. The cottage has every thing we needed. Will definitely rent again when in the area. Thank you.
My husband and I stayed in this lovely, comfortable and quiet cottage for a week in September. While the weather did not cooperate, we had a wonderful time just relaxing and napping and reading. Just what we needed to recharge. The Bunkhouse is very well appointed, with very comfortable furniture and a cozy big bed, lovely big shower and bathroom for a little cottage. Laura is very nice and helpful she got right back to me when I had a question. Once it stopped raining we could also look forward to visits form Gus the dog! he is a sweetie! There are plenty of restaurants within about a 20 minute drive and the lovely towns of Camden, Rockland and Belfast to visit. We had a wonderful time and would definitely book again.
My GF and I spent 3 nights at this cottage and enjoyed every second. Whether sitting on the dock, by the Firepit or exploring some of the local seaside towns it was an awesome time.
