| What a special place! We stayed at the George’s Pond Cabin for a week and enjoyed every second. The location, just steps away from the pond, was perfect for kayaking, canoeing, swimming and just sitting on the porch listening to the loons. There are other cabins nearby and they were occupied the first few nights of our stay but we still felt secluded and noise was not an issue. A nearby long, winding dirt road was ideal for walking the dog and observing wildlife. The fireplace was the perfect remedy for the chilly September evenings, and only added to the cozy ambience. The cabin is centrally located a short 25 minute drive to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor, although we enjoyed the cabin so much that we only ventured out a few days. The owners are very hospitable and accessible should you have a question or concern during your stay. Thank you for a wonderful vacation, it was the best we have ever had! |

What a wonderful time we had. The cabin is a bit
rustic and the kitchen is small but functional. The
cabin was well equipped with all the necessities and
clean. We saw bald eagles every day and spent our
days on the water, swimming, canoeing, kayaking.
We woke up each morning with a view of the pond.
George's Pond is well located and an easy drive to Ellsworth. The location and access is great.
The best part is the quite. It was a very relaxing
week and we just loved it. There is a huge rock past
the dock you can swim to a sit on. It is a few inches
under the water and flat. You can walk on it. The
water was warm and there is a sandy area right off
the stairs. Thank you for a great time. |

This was our first week at the cabin and we enjoyed ourselves thoroughly. It can be tough finding a nice cabin that is pet friendly so it was great to have found this place. The fireplace was wonderful as some of our evenings were a bit damp - it took the chill right out of the air.
Very private as the camp is at the end of a driveway. You can see other camps but there was no one occupying those on either side of us the entire duration of our stay.
Listened to the loons every night and had bald eagles or osprey in a tree next to the camp every day. Great lake to canoe and/or kayak as there was not a lot of motor boat traffic.
Plenty of room for guests. Master bedroom was cozy but would have liked to have a bit more room to store our clothes. You really can't go wrong with this camp. ENJOY! |

I just wanted to add, as the guest who wrote to the camp owner in the 8/30/07 comment, my husband and I are still talking about how what great a time we all had. As the oldest child will be a senior this year and the next right behind, we know family vacations will become few and far between. Our time on Georges Pond will for sure be a time we all look back on with fond memories. Hopefully we get to return with the youngest for many more, as he is determined to get the fish his brother let "get away". Thank you again.

We wanted to thank you both for the great vacation we enjoyed in your cabin!
My husband and I were previous business owners and spent the past few
years unable to
truly enjoy time off, never mind relax. We not only had a fun and relaxing
vacation, but
we have added a lake home onto our goal list.
The house was perfect for the kids as well. They loved the paddle boating,
fishing and swimming.
Even the dog had her "sea legs" by the third day. The back roads gave them
an adventure ride or two and it just all provided a great family time, which
can be difficult with 2 teens and our 10 year old and his friend. Its the first
time in a while Ive seen the 15 year old spend so much time with his brother.
The location is close enough to the park and other tourist places so you can
do things without spending hours driving, but also when you hear the loons
at 10 pm you feel like you are far far away. The stars, satellites, and shooting
stars brought us out every night and the fireplace warmed us after that. We
cooked breakfast, lunch and dinner on the grill which was great. And at the
end of the day or on that one rainy afternoon, the tv/cable gave the kids
something to do as they brought brought playstation along "just incase".
We all slept like babies in the beds and bedding you provided. My husband
and I run a little hotter than the kids, but once they snuggled in the were out
until late morning. Even Adam (almost 16) slept on the porch, which would be
typically unlike him, slept through sunrises right into late morning.
So, again thank you very much for a great time.
