Lake view retreat

Our family truly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful home with amazing views of the lake. The location was close to shops, restaurants, and activities. It was nice hanging around the campfire at night or for my boys to fish at anytime they felt like it. Plenty of kayaks for the whole family to enjoy and the kitchen was well stocked for cooking meals at home. We hope to come back again someday!!!

Beautiful Lake House

This lake house was beautiful and had everything we needed. The house itself was very clean and provided many activities for adults and kids. The location was close to town and loves seeing all the sea planes! Would definitely recommend.

Awesome lake views

We loved the lake cabin with awesome views of the lake. The cabin was tastefully decorated and fully stocked from the kitchen, bathrooms, and basement including canoes, kayaks, and bikes. Only drawback was the neighbors and their dog, and an Unexpected backed-up sewer/plumbing issue. Location was great and would highly recommend!

Well appointed home

House has everything you will need for a great trip. Lovely home, nice location. Would love to see some comfy Adirondack chairs to look out at the water next time. Deer came through the yard daily. Kids loved catching crawfish and a 3 lb bass right from the dock!

We had a great stay. I really like the house and everything was easy, which is a blessing during a vacation. The location is great for winter (and probably summer). Already dreaming of our next trip.

Perfect, absolutely perfect!

We had an incredible stay for the International Seaplane Fly In...super convenient to town, but also peaceful for kayaking and relaxing dockside with the loons and ducks! The house is perfectly appointed, with 4 kayaks, a canoe, bikes...so much fun to be had! We had a special note with champagne for our arrival, and the living spaces were gorgeous. Can't say enough about Moosehead Hideaway!

Relaxation at the lake

The week at Moosehead lake was very relaxing and the house lake was very comfortable. The house was close in location to town and we enjoyed the opportunity of walking into town. (Approximately 2 miles) We rented a boat from wild ones rentals and enjoyed the beautiful lake for a few days. The area is great for hiking and enjoying the beautiful scenery. Dinner at Birches Resort in Rockwood, was wonderful!

Beautiful place.

Everything was just as advertised. Only thing that wasn’t like the pics was the fire pit. Pics showed beautiful fire pit with concrete seating benches and nice paver patio. It actually had old wooden seating and over grown patio area. But don’t let that keep u from renting because everything else was beautiful.

Perfection!

The house was clean and inviting, and Scott was so kind as to leave a bottle of champagne and flowers to welcome us! My whole family really enjoyed using the canoe and kayaks. The views from this property are stunning. We loved watching all the seaplanes take off & land, listening to the loons in the early morning, and even had the privilege of watching a bald eagle fly by right in front of the dock one evening. We had a truly enjoyable time vacationing here, despite the inconsistent weather. Would definitely stay at this property again!

Moosehead Hideaway is a great place

Stunning views with such an open front - anytime of day/night looks great - location is ~1 mile from shops and town activities. Canoes/kayaks and bikes were a big plus. Mooring was added benefit for our 20' boat - endless sites to explore including Kineo hiking (wow what a view), Moose sightings at the DOT. fishing etc etc. Very laid back community and great food at Stress Free Moose. Kids loved it. Scott (owner) was great as well.

Great getaway

Perfect location. A mile from everything you would need. Home has all brand new appliances and plenty of kitchen essentials. Dock on the lake after using the fire pit is great for star gazing . Great views from interior of house as well as the deck . Do yourself a favor and take a ride on a float plane. Curriers literally at the end of the street. Owners responded to any inquiries we had with in 5 minutes .
