Lakefront log home on Graham Lake in Ellsworth, Maine

Lovely 3 bedroom, 3 bath log home on Graham Lake in Ellsworth Maine. Come enjoy a lake view with rocking chairs on the deck for relaxation, and short trip to Acadia National Park. Full kitchen, stainless steel appliances including a dishwasher. Master bedroom with a 3/4 bath on the second floor with a queen sized bed. Main floor bedroom with a queen sized bed and a full bath. Basement level bedroom with 2 twin beds and 3/4 bathroom. full sized washer and dryer. There is a front deck facing west towards the water for those beautiful Maine sunsets. Ellsworth is fair sized city only 3 miles away with many unique and chain restaurants and stores. Numerous outdoor lobster pounds on the road to Bar Harbor and Arcadia National Park. Bar Harbor and Acadia are about 30 minutes away.
The property is empty 8 months of the year and since it's location is in the middle of a forested area and knowing that there have been break ins in the immediate area we have installed a security system with multiple cameras outside and one inside that can be covered up upon your arrival if you so choose. If this is an issue for you I suggest you do not rent the cabin.

Great spot on a beautiful lake!
This property was very comfortable and well laid out. You can tell this is a much loved spot for the host. We enjoyed the lake and the view and the privacy! While the property felt remote, we enjoyed being able to be in town in minutes. The host is responsive and super helpful. All in all, a great choice!

Amazing property on a beautiful lake , with the most magnificent sunsets!! Great house, our family had plenty of space. Good location - just far enough from the maddening crowds in Bar Harbor, yet close enough to the sites and sounds of Acadia. Thank you for a great trip!

Wonderful Lakeside Retreat
The location of this cabin is great. It is situated on a lake for beautiful sunsets. It's not far from Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor, but it feels far away from the crowds. We enjoyed the canoe to paddle on the lake. Our host was accommodating and responsive to out needs and questions. I would definitely recommend and rent again.

Perfect place to unwind and enjoy vacation
The pictures don't really do the place justice. Beautiful view of the lake. Great place to relax after hiking in Acadia or returning from Bar Harbor. You felt isolated and away from the crowds, but close enough to run into town for groceries or grabbing a bite to eat. Well stocked kitchen so the option to dine in and save some money was also there. We also had campfires 2 of the nights we stayed there to enjoy the beautiful atmosphere.

Delightful Retreat
We enjoyed our visit to Graham Lake; the cottage was very nice with everything we needed for our stay. The kitchen was well supplied. Our grandsons learned how to kayak during the week and had a great time on the beach and in the water. A nice bonus was the nearby access to the Downeast Sunrise Trail for ATV riding. One of the best trails in the state. Enjoyed access to Ellsworth for restaurants and shopping as well. Will plan to do this again.

Relaxing and fun family getaway spot
The pictures do not do this place justice! The house is clean and well maintained, and the location is unbeatable. It's private but close enough to hop over to town for some takeout or shopping. Our family had planned to take day trips in the area but once we arrived the kids had too much fun playing in the water and around the property to leave. We had everything we needed for cooking and the canoe and kayaks were a nice bonus. The views from the porch are well worth the trip!

Fishing
First time doing VRBO!! Excellent first impression. Easy and quick communication. My husband and I LOVE to fish in waders. The home not only gave us extraordinary views BUT the fishing was epic!! To be able to fish all around the lake in our waders was PRICELESS!

Beautiful lake house
Of all the houses I’ve ever rented, this was my favorite. It was very clean, private and well equipped. The location was not far from stores and restaurants. Our ritual after supper was to walk down the beach. Then watch the amazing sunset, and have a relaxing campfire to end the night. We saw eagles and moose prints on the beach. I will definitely be coming back again.

SO CLEAN and SPACIOUS!
Can't say enough about this cabin. Amazing! Most important, it was it was so clean! Three full bathrooms for 3 bedrooms was a bonus because the kids got their own bathroom! The cabin had everything we needed. The basement TV room was great for my older son to stay up late. Big floating tubes, kayaks and fishing poles provided kept us busy. Easy day trip to Bar Harbor. The owner was very response to us during out trip. If in Maine again would absolutely rent again!

Very nice house, roads a little rough to get to, but worth it.
The property was very nice. Only 1 issue was a dehumidifier in basement area. It had a note saying to leave it on, but when you used other lights it would kickoff the breaker. Other then that the place was great.

Breathtaking Location
The home is equipped with most anything one would need during their stay, like being at your own home. The AC in the living room helped with the humid days and nights, and the kayaks allowed us to explore the large lake. We enjoyed sunset paddles, and the fishing was excellent. The location is close to Acadia and Bangor. There are several security cameras inside and outside, allowed per Vrbo. I understand their purpose, however, I prefer to vacation without “big brother”. The chairs in the living room are visibly dirty/stained, and the dishrack in the kitchen was questionable. Everything else seemed spotless. There is no place for your non-perishables; every shelf in the kitchen is occupied. It would have been nice to have at least one shelf available to put our food. There were a lot of “leftovers” in the fridge from prior guests including eggs, and half used condiments that expired in 2021. The grass/weeds around the home were quite overgrown; it took away from the picturesque nature of the property. Lastly, you must take the trash when you leave and pay for it. We chose to simply take it home with us. It may seem petty, but When you pay $2500, these things should not be an issue. The bed was incredibly comfortable; The bathroom was spacious; great water pressure, sufficient towels. Communication was excellent and info we needed for the property was provided in advance of our stay. The lake was quiet …and those sunsets… who needs Cadillac Mountain, lol? We miss it already!

Owner has no concept of privacy!
Great place to stay if you don’t mind cameras watching you inside the cabin! I really hope you also don’t plan on cooking indoors either because only one burner works and you need to light it manually and still comes out like a explosion! Not safe at all big Fire hazard! And the pots and pans were very dirty with stuck on food! Entire basement smelled of mildew from water left on the floor! Also be mindful all garbage and recycled bottles need to be taken to the local dump in Ellsworth not put at trash like he said even if his instructions clearly stated only if you have a lot of recycled bottles! After that didn’t work for him keeping the deposit! he tried contacting me about his house keeper saying she had to work extra and she needed more money to clean! Mind you we washed all his towels all the bed linens! Cleaned the bathrooms bedrooms and entire cabin! So he tried saying he couldn’t return my deposit Take photos like I did of everything! They have time stamps I sent them and he stated oh she being dramatic! Take Photos of everything because he would of taken my deposit Mind you we left the cabin cleaner than when we arrived! I hate leaving reviews like this but this guy is a piece of work!

Peaceful Piece of Heaven
We enjoyed a fabulous stay at this comfortable cabin in the woods that had every amenity we could have wanted. The lake views are spectacular and the location is peaceful, off the beaten track, yet close to town and centrally located for an easy drive to Acadia NP and many other coastal attractions. The host was very responsive and helpful. Our stay couldn't have been nicer!
