"We enjoyed our stay at your beautiful log house. The scenery is beautiful and we definitely enjoyed the fact that it was very quiet and peaceful. We would like to come back again."

| We had a wonderful week in Lamoine. The house was absolutely beautiful and it slept all 14 of us VERY comfortably. (We were 3 families, with kids ages 2-9.) We loved being close to Acadia and Bar Harbor, but it was not smack in the middle of all the touristy stuff. I would highly recommend this vacation site. |

| My family and I had never been to Maine so when we arrived at this beautiful log cabin for our family reunion we knew we picked the perfect spot. The cabin is prefectly nestled in this beautiful cove and I was impressed to see how well it fit the natural surrounding yet had all the comforts of home, clean and spacious. It has large windows to view all the nature around you and they open if you wish to get a breeze. It is centrally located, which accomadated all our interests: sea kayaking, hiking, mountain climbing, sailing, moose hunting (camera), antiquing, GREAT food, horse back riding, bird watching, whale watching, harbor seals and so much more. We saw wildlife everyday! The house is privately located and quiet except for the sound of wind blowing through the trees and birds calling (eagles, woodpeckers, gulls, American Gold Finch) around the property. Blue berries are up the road for picking and a goat farm with fresh french cheese is right around the corner! Oh Man! Combine that with the Lobster and clam chowder... Shops are plentiful and nearby along the quaint rolling roads through the hills. The cabin was big enough to congregate as a group or sneek off and read a book. Watching the tides go in and out is AMAZING! All the people we met were friendly and helpful. Jeff's web page for planning our trip was an excellent tool. My family and I recommend this house highly for YOUR next vacation. Who knew Maine to be such a wonderful place! |

| Our family enjoyed our stay at this beautiful log home. Very private location with nice views of the cove. Good for kayaking, but watch the drastic tide change or else you will be draging your kayak back to the house for several hundred yards! Gas grill was a nice feature to cook family meals. |

| We enjoyed a wonderful week of fresh air, sunshine, and beautiful breezes. The young children loved Lamoine Beach. Our family loved Bar Harbor but it was nice to come home to the peace and quiet of Lamoine each day. The views over Racoon Cove are spectacular. The large pots in the well-equipped kitchen are perfect for steaming lobsters and clams. We hope to have another family vacation on Pasture Way. |

| Great place to stay in Acadia area. Close to everything; far enough away from the crowds. |

| We stayed at the house in Oct 2007, and had a great week. We were 10 people, and enjoyed the close proximity to Acadia. We found so much to do on Acadia that we spent most of our time there. The sunrises and the tide changes viewed through the front windows was a highlight. We cooked and ate many meals in the modern and well equipped kitchen, and all the services we needed were in nearby Ellsworth. A very enjoyable and successful extended family vacation! |

Jeff,
We had a wonderful 2 weeks. Your home fit our family's needs. It was special to sit and read either in front of the open windows or out in the Adirondack chairs. Rain or shine, we had a wonderful time in your home.
Thanks-

Dear Jeff,
Your log home fit the needs of our family perfectly. There was plenty of room to give each age group their own space yet get together for meals. We enjoyed the breeze through the windows while reading at night and the views while sitting in chairs above the cove.
Your home was located within easy reach of all that Acadia had to offer.
If you have a "to do" list, I would suggest additional "great room" furniture so all guests could gather. An optional to use radio and/or wifi connection would greatly help on getting weather and event updates. |

Dear Chris & Jeff,
Thank you for sharing your "piece of heaven' with us. We loved every minute of our stay. Your home is beautiful with plenty of room for everyone. We managed to pack each day with a different adventure, rain or shine. We enjoyed coming home in the evening to relax with a kayak ride around Raccoon Cove, or just sit out on the Adirondak chairs and enjoy the view. It was perfect!
The fact that we were not ready to come home says it all. We are already planning when we can come again.
Thank you!

| We had a lovely week in the log home. Kayaking on the cove around high tide was wonderful (tide info is listed on the kitchen calendar) and fishing at Lamoine State Park was exciting. We even found starfish clinging to the rocks there. Thanks for all the great communication and answering all our questions. |

| The house is beautiful and very remote. If you want to be close to everything but feel "away from it all" this is the place. Excellent views. The house is very clean and roomy. |

| Excellent view from the living room--overlooks racoon bay, spacious kitchen and, three baths--no waiting! We could drive to the Harbor front at Bar Harbor in 20 minutes. Ellsworth grocery store in 8. (plus there is a little store about 4 miles away as well. We were able to launch the Kayak a couple of times (high tide) and it is really fun to walk about at low tide. This is a place you can set up base camp and have some fun! |

The log home is magnificent! My family loved the
beauty of the setting, the simplicity of design, the
openness of the the layout, the cleanliness of the
home and the spaciousness of the rooms. We
couldn't have been happier. As a matter of fact, it
was hard to leave!
Thank you for sharing your dream with us. It
helped to make the wedding weekend just perfect.
All the best,
Cindy

| A wonderful home away from home, with plenty of room to relax with old friends and still give the children their own space too. The location is beautiful and peaceful and the colours over Raccoon Cove at sunset are breathtaking. We would have no hesitation in recommending this cottage to anyone. |

| In over 10 years of visits to Maine to enjoy the beauty of the whales and Acadia National Park, no hotel room could match to the home-away-from-home of this log home. My friends and I were able to enjoy each others' company more because we were able to relax in such a serene location instead of the usual hotel room. The house was phenomenal, the location was priceless, and the experience was incredible. I highly recommend this log home to all who seek Maine as a place of refuge from their hectic life. May Peace be with all who vacation there! :) |

| I just returned from a week's stay in this log home and the beauty of both the home and area took me a little closer to Heaven. God's glory surrounded us in the views and peace that I felt drinking my coffee and reflecting on all the gifts I saw in the sunrise over Raccoon Cove. Thank you for that opportunity. |

| Thanks for the opportunity to enjoy your home. We had a family gathering and were very happy with the space and layout of the cabin. I highly recommend this rental to anyone wanting to enjoy the Maine coast and its wonders with family and friends. Along with being right on the coastline, it is very close to many Maine parks and attractions such as Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. I know you will enjoy your stay as much as we did. |

Thank you for letting us rent your lovely house. We really enjoyed our vacation in Maine. Acadia National Park was a lot of fun. The house is near by the Acadia National Park. It does not take long time to go there. My friends highly loved this place. It is fully equipped with kitchen appratus. Cadillac Mountain was also very beautiful. We enjoyed great time at seawall and sand beach with our children. We started off not knowing how to eat lobster and now we ate so many, I think those are the best lobster in the world. The children liked walking the beach area near by your house and collecting shells. It was wonderful time for our friends. We hope to visit there one more time in the future.
Thank you. |
