My husband and I enjoyed the week in Scott's cabin! The view was absolutely gorgeous. We loved it so much we utilized the futon couch as our bedroom so we woke up to the misty fog raising off the lake. The kayaks and canoe was an excellent touch. The house is well stocked and Scott is easily accessible and super helpful. I would definitely recommend this cabin and we hope to be back one day!
We thoroughly enjoyed a 2-week stay at this property. Scott was responsive to all our needs. The views of beautiful Phillips Lake from the cabin interior, the deck and the shore were wonderful. We especially enjoyed the loons that often visited our side of the lake. The kitchen was very well equipped, the WiFi and satellite TV worked great. The clear lake water was great for swimming and kayaking. In addition to a canoe and two kayaks, an ample supply of paddles and life jackets is provided. We are a pair of 80-year-olds, so Scott warned us in advance about the uneven stone steps leading down to the cabin from the parking area. We did OK on the steps, but my wife usually needed a hand for stability. Bringing jugs of drinking water down from the car was also a bit of a challenge. We hope to return soon to this lovely spot.
Great location. The cabin is up to date and very comfortable. The owner, Scott,was very responsive to any questions. Friends and family were amazed at location and how peaceful it is. We will look to staying here again.
Beautiful cabin in the woods on the Lake. Great views. Close to Bar Harbor and Bangor. Great to wake up to the views from the beautiful windows. Enjoyed the fire pit. We could go on and on...Great vacation.
We had a great stay on Phillips Lake at Scottâs house! The view was beautiful and it was the perfect time of the year for some leaf peeping right in the back yard overlooking the lake! The house is close to all; Bangor, Bar Harbor, Acadia National Park. And there are a lot of options for shopping close by as well to stock up on groceries or supplies. We love Maine and would absolutely recommend Scottâs place for people who like a quiet, lake house vacation!
Wonderful week. Great memories were made around the campfire, on the dock, in the lake, in the kayaks, eating lobster on the deck...the list goes on. It's a comfortable cabin tucked away off the beaten path, actually a dirt road but don't let that stop you. Location is perfect...close to Bangor and not a bad drive to Acadia and Bar Harbor. It allowed us to get a well-rounded experience of Maine. Scott was wonderful in communicating before, during and after our stay. The rustic feel of the cabin truly feels like camp, and the living room view of the water is amazing. Highly recommend a stay here!
This property was in an amazing location and it was very easy communicating with Scott. The check in process was very easy and the cabin had everything you might need, including kitchen materials and even kayaks. I could have stayed for much longer than a week!
The house is perfectly located on clean and clear Phillips Lake. It is close enough to make a nice day trip to Acadia and Bar Harbor. My family enjoyed swimming, canoeing, kayaking, fishing and snorkeling in the surprisingly warm water. The house is very private, but still has friendly neighbors right next door. Upon our arrival we were very happy with how clean and nicely furnished the house is. Scott is an attentive, engaging host who helped us with every question and concern we had from the beginning of our booking till the end of our trip. Our kids didn't want to leave!! We will be back!!
Second time we have rented from Scott. It was an outstanding two weeks. We visited family and friends, had lobster at Bar Harbor, and had time to fish for bass almost every day! The view from the camp overlooking Phillips Lake just can't be beat. The loons calling each other made all the difference. Another Vacation we will never forget. Hope to return next year.
The view from this cabin is outstanding. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Scott was very helpful in providing us with necessary directions and other details that were helpful in enjoying the cabin. As someone who cooks a lot, I appreciated the large, well stocked kitchen. There are so many nice touches in decor in the cabin that really made the place feel very homey. I love Phillips Lake and have been visiting since I was a child. Of all the cabins I have rented as an adult, this was the nicest. We enjoyed swimming the clear, pristine water and using the kayaks to explore. We intend to come back next year!
Beautiful lake front cabin, everything you could want in Maine vacation
Everything about this property was perfect for us. The kids loved hanging out and sleeping in the loft, when we werenât hiking in Acadia we were swimming or kayaking on the lake. Scott provided everything we that we needed and was only an email away when we had questions. The lake itself was breath taking, we loved exploring it on the kayaks and the canoe that Scott provided. Even with WiFi available the kids chose to spend most of our down time on the lake! We could not have asked for a more perfect vacation. Thanks so much Scott for sharing you beautiful piece of Maine with us. Weâre definitely planning on becoming regulars as long as you will keep having us.
Absolute heaven. Lovely camp. Incredible views. Centrally located to Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor, and 20 minutes from Bangor Airport. Itâs sad to leave. Thurstonâs Lobster shack is a must!!! Scott is a wonderful host and we are likely to return.
Best,
The Butler Family
We are repeat renters for all the right reasons. We will be back.
Camp is great. Lake is great. Convenient to wherever and whatever you want to do. Scott and his Mom great to work with. I guess we've warned them we'll be back.
We had a great two weeks in June . The first week was a bit on the cool side but the second week was wonderful. Caught loads of small and largemouth bass. The camp was amazing. It faces due East and it was so peaceful to watch the sun come up over the lake and have some coffee in the morning. Many days and evenings the lake would be just like a mirror! Scott made sure we were well taken care of during our stay. The camp not only had all the necessities of home but was beautifully decorated as well. The location was great - near to Bangor and Bar Harbor. Lots to do and see . We certainly hope to be back next year . If you want an outstanding Maine vacation on Phillips Lake, don't hesitate to book early because you definitely will have memories to last a lifetime. Thanks again, Scott, for allowing us to enjoy two memorable weeks at your camp.
Beautiful camp, lake and views. Everything we were looking for.
We loved the camp itself. Couldn't ask for a better view! Everything was there for a perfect stay. The lake was beautiful and we ejoyed exploring with the kayaks. Great choice for anyone looking for a maine lake experience.
Had an amazing trip to Maine, such a beautiful state!!!
Absolutely loved our stay at the lake front cabin!!! The place was absolutely beautiful!!! I totally recommend staying for vacation here. The whole experience was great.
The Cabin was absolutely gorgeous and everything you could need was provided!!! Wish we could of stayed longer for sure !!
Wir haben zwei wundervolle Wochen in Scott's Haus verbracht. Die Lage ist einfach toll und der See lÀdt jeden Tag zum Schwimmen ein. Zwei Kayaks und ein Kanu sind ideal um den See weiter zu erkunden. Das Haus ist gut ausgestattet und alles war sehr sauber. Der Kontakt zu Scott im Vorfeld und wÀhrend der Reise war problemlos. Bei einem kleineren Problem mit dem WIFI hat Scott uns sofort geholfen. Da wir sehr oft FerienhÀuser anmieten und daher viele Vergleichsmöglichkeiten haben, können wir dieses Haus jedem empfehlen, der einen schönen, erholsamen Urlaub in Maine verbringen möchte.
Thank you, Scott, for a wonderful vacation in your cabin! We had two perfect weeks at the lake and enjoyed every minute of it. We can clearly recommend your cabin to everyone who is looking for a great stay in Maine.
Great location, easy to get to, everything you expect from a Maine Camp.
Well equipped. We brought kayaks and were happy to see they had some. Lots of plates and bowels and utensils. Nice grill on deck. Easy chairs to sit in outside by the lake or on the deck. TV, Games, movies, cards and cribbage boards all ready to use. Nice washer and dryer that work well. Parking pretty close to camp. Overall, no major issues. Good access to lake. Good cell reception. We would rent this camp again and may be calling next year for reservations.
