A Little Piece Of Heaven

We have a two night minimum in our newly renovated cottage on pristine, spring fed Schoodic Lake that sleeps five in a beautiful handmade (double) bunk bed and one single bed in separate bedroom. Enjoy your morning (wake up) coffee on newly built porch overlooking the lake as the ducks and loons swim past. Enjoy your morning swim (50' away) by walking directly into the shallow water in front of the deck. (Ideal for young children) Deeper water further out in the lake.

Comfy cottage has dishes, pots & pans, silverware, glasses, toaster, coffee pot, refrigerator, stove, TV and internet available - everything for an enjoyable stay.

Bring your own boat that can be launched at the public landing one lot away. Great for fishermen and all kinds of water sports. Once on the lake, great views of Mount Katahdin and the Appalachian Trail mountain range that are spectacular. Sportsmen love fishing for togue, trout and salmon. Be sure to bring your fly rod too! Cameras are a must when traveling to Deadmans Rock, and standing on the enormous sawdust pile left behind by the Merrick Spool company of the 1800’s.

For those that enjoy hiking, Gulf Hagas, Borestone Mountain and Appalachian Trails are a short distance away.

Bring your own ATV. ATV trails that will take you all over the state are just up the street from the cottage.

We open May 15th of each year and close October 1 unless prior arrangements are made with the owner.

Check-In Time: 4 PM to 9 PM Lock Box available for people to check-in after 9 PM. Please request lock box in advance.

Check out Time: 11 AM Firm so we can prepare the cottage for our next guest.

We love dogs here for free with a few rules. 1. If your dog sheds a lot, there is a $25 extra cleaning fee if your cottage is not left as you found it. 2. Dogs must be kept on a leash while outside the cottage or taken out for their daily duties. Bags will be supplied to pick up their waste that can be disposed of in a provided garbage can. 3. Dogs may be off leash as long as the owner keeps an eye on them and not allowed to wander over to another owners land. Should this happen, the dogs owner must pick up any waste promptly with bags supplied. 4. Dogs must be tied to a tree should owner have to leave them unattended for any reason.

If guest wants to bring more than five people, we do allow them to bring a small camper for them to sleep in. The cost for the camper will be $10 a night and $22 dollars a day for each additional person. Towels and wash cloths will not be supplied for the extra guests. Please let your host know in advance of your stay if you will be bringing a camper and the number of additional guests.

A peaceful retreat.
If you want a quiet place on a lake this is the spot. A cozy cabin, easy access to the lake for swimming, kayaking or whatever you like. The owners were extremely friendly and accommodating making sure we had everything we needed. My wife and I were able to sit back and relax and forget about the pressure of everyday life and would recommend A little piece of heaven.

The owners are wonderful people very friendly, caring and helpful. The cottage was small but clean and well set up. The weather rained and was windy every day we didn't get to enjoy the beautiful lake unfortunately. We recommend the property to others. We enjoyed our chats with the owners and sharing stories they made us feel very welcome!! Thank you!

Absolutely Wonderful!!
Leon and Laney, immediately make you feel like family, almost like they are your parents or your aunt and uncle. The location is breath taking. The lake is pristine. I paddleboarded out a long way and even a couple of hundred feet out you can still see the bottom, the water is that clear. It's very rocky, so not much sand, but no seaweed at all either so awesome for swimming and watersports. Anything you need before or during your stay the hosts are great at helping with. Their is a very nice size yark (pebbles not grass) for kids or adults to play in while you are there. The beds are bunk beds and on the small side so that was a bit cramped given I'm six feet tall and 230 pounds. There is one single bed ground level. The hosts supply a fully stocked kitchen to make your stay easy. This place is super quiet. We will definitely be back.

Big Bummer: Not as Expected
I spoke to the host upon my arrival. He was gracious and welcoming and tried to work with me regarding my disappointment. I was very sorry things were not as I expected. I realize my opinion is in the minority. I hope my comments and observations will help other travellers. The cottage appeared clean and well-maintained. It is listed as a one bedroom and also lists a bedroom 1 and 2. It is a three bed studio. In the photos, you can see the bunk beds near the kitchen, but the single bed is shown as a closeup so you wouldn't know it's not in a bedroom. It is in an open alcove behind the door. There is one or a pair of windows near the kitchen table. The photos show it with the drapes closed. If you want to sit there for a meal and open them, you'll be looking at the neighbors' front yard, a large pontoon boat, and some cars. There was no furniture on the deck. If you want to sit outside with a cup of coffee you could probably touch the house on the right. To the left along the property line runs a long chain-link fence with plastic privacy strips in it, again not visible in any of the photos. Wider angle photos of all sides of the house and inside would give a clearer picture of the rental/surrounding property. Boaters/those who want to spend the day on the lake would love it here and it's fine as a place to sleep and go out to nearby attractions during the day. Primarily,I didn't find the setting fit my idea of a lakeside cottage stay in Maine and chose not to stay.

Great Getaway!
This is a lovely cabin, with great access to Schoodic Lake and plenty of hiking nearby. Leon & Elaine are wonderful host! They are helpful, friendly and communication was terrific! The rental was very clean, beds are very comfortable and it had everything we needed. The best feature is the lake access right outside the door! We will definitely visit them again!

Little slice of heaven on Schoodic Lake
This was just the spot we needed to unwind. The property is as described -- clean, tiny, and in the perfect location quite literally on quiet, rural Schoodic Lake. Leon and Lanie were amazing hosts. We were able to swim in the lake each morning, enjoy nearby hikes and trails, rent kayaks, enjoy a boat ride with the host at the helm, do some fun aerial sightseeing near Mt Katadhin, and see neighboring lakes and forests. To be clear, this little rental is tiny, but fit a family of four and two dogs just fine and has everything you actually you need -- bathroom stocked with towels, kitchen with all the essentials to cook, and a sleeping/seating area. Being able to wake up and watch the sunrise, enjoy sunsets from on the lake, and watch the stars at night made the experience especially memorable. My kids loved every moment here.

Tiny Lake House
We had a fantastic stay in our tiny house on Schoodic Lake! Perfect Central location for using the ATV trails (Dover trails closed which was a bit disappointing)! Visited the Onawa Trestle, Millinocket, Upper Ebeemee Lake, rainy day drive to Katahid Iron Works and Greenville. Kayaking was awesome! Many areas to visit and explore. Our rental was perfect. Our one and only negative was too many people! Nothing in fault with our rental at all. It was after all the Fourth of July week so everyone was upta camp! Very friendly neighbor. Excellent host and hostess! Our house had everything we needed!

Just the right place!
A small little cottage literally right on Schoodic Lake with amazing view that was perfect for what I needed for a few days. The Kitchen is well stocked with all you need, the wifi works great. Leon (owner) was very helpful, runs through all you need to know, available and and a wealth of information. This is small cottage but super comfortable, clean and great location. Fit my needs so well I have booked another few days this summer!
