What an iconic Maine lakehouse vacation! The house has plenty of space, and did I mention seemingly never-ending views of the water?! Not only was it beautiful, it had amenities galore, to include kayaks, life jackets, fishing poles and gear, board games, puzzles and lots of Maine guidebooks! We would definitely do this again!
Beautiful area, lakeside. Had a very relaxing comfortable stay at this lovely cozy home. The weather wasnât exactly on our side but we enjoyed staying in and relaxing and making puzzles and memories. Close to Bar Harbor and Bangor. Great view from Flat Rock. Wish there were a few less trees so you could have a better view of the lake from inside but thatâs minor. Had a great time!!
The house at Flat Rock was great. It was beautiful inside, spacious, comfortable, very well stocked, great view, lots of things to do that were supplied for us. We didn't get to enjoy the outside much because of the weather, but it would be a great spot in the warmer months. It is about 45 minutes to Acadia and about 35 minutes to Bangor. The house was easy to find, with directions supplied by the owners. All information needed was in a binder in the house, which helped a lot too. Internet went out a few times, probably because it's a remote area. Plenty of room for sleeping for a larger party than we had. Would definitely recommend staying there.
Cabin was well furnished and cozy. The sunrise and sunsets were simply beautiful. Loved the apple orchard down the road. Thanks for sharing this jewel!
This place is a picture perfect getaway, Quite, secluded and peaceful. Just the right size for family or just a couple. The only negative is that we had to leave.
We loved the charming cabin, the pristine lake, and swimming right off the flat rock. Fantastic location! Very relaxing. The perfect getaway. Truly a unique place. (And a very responsive host. Thank you!!)
This place definitely surpassed expectations. The home is comfortable and easy to find. Nice to be out of the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor and Acadia itself but still an easy drive. The flat rock area (a slab of rock which extends into the lake itself) was incredible for watching the sunset. Nothing like waking up lakeside with the water just outside the window.
The host was gracious and quick to respond. We had an excellent time. Would absolutely recommend to anyone and would stay there again ourselves in a heartbeat.
Amazing vacation full of memories that will last a lifetime.
This cabin was a little sentimental piece of paradise right on the waters edge, that was full of character, warmth and charm. Communication responses were quick, honest and upfront. We will most certainly return again in the future.i
Centrally located near Acadia and Bangor, conveniently near shopping and groceries etc. nice lake, not too busy and some pretty good fishing. Great house, comfy master bed!!
A perfect girls getaway! Plenty of roomâŠso nice to sit out on the rocks early in the morning and to watch the sunsets. Would love to stay here again sometime!!
Beautiful place with gorgeous views. House was well stocked with everything, including information answering questions about things to do, directions for operating appliances, restaurants, distances to towns, etc.
My family and I stayed at Flat Rock for a long weekend. Everything was great. Fantastic views of the lake every morning. Easy drive to Acadia National Park. The cabin has everything you need for a great stay in Maine!
We loved everything about the cabin! The owner is very responsive and made the experience simple and seemless. The location is perfect and the house has everything you could possibly need to make your stay relaxing and enjoyable. It is centralized and convenient to so many great places to visit. The cabin is very cozy and felt like home. We had a wonderful time star gazing and photographing the milky way from Flat Rock. We even captured a bit of the aurora borealis, which we have never seen before! It was amazing to see so many stars in the night sky. We even heard an owl while stargazing. The fall colors were beautiful. Our entire family had a wonderful time and we miss it already! We can't wait to go back.
Beautiful cabin with all the amenities in perfect location!
Host provided helpful information about sights to see and activities in the area. Will return next year.
If I were describe Sheree's beautiful cabin in two words it would be 'Dream Home'. This stunning property is located next to Branch Lake; from the charming details to the large windows with scenic views it was nothing short of amazing! Our stay was absolutely wonderful, I hope to return sometime soon!
Flat rock was a wonderful stay in a cozy camp with an eclectic feel, like grandmas house but on a lake in Maine. Well-stocked kitchen and enough space to spread out for 4-6 people. We visited relatives in Ellsworth so the location was perfect, close to family and Acadia national park.
My husband's grandfather built this camp in 1940. We recently purchased the cabin and have spent many months renovating it. We added AC/ heating, an extra bathroom, new electrical and plumbing, washer and dryer, many new windows and flooring. We love Flat Rock (which is an actually place on the backside of the cabin, for which is got it's name!). And we can't wait to share it with you....
