Reviews
Casco Cabin
5/5 Great little cabin on the water. Woke up and read on the dock every morning. Just the right quiet getaway we needed.

Nice stay on Parker Pond.
3/5 We had a wonderful time, and especially liked the convenient location. Breezes off Parker Pond were welcome in the summer heat. Screened in porch is a nice feature, and makes the cabin interior seem larger than it is.

From the owner: "Hi Pamela. Very happy to hear you enjoyed your stay at our home. If you were to stay again, what could we do better for you or others to ensure a 5 stars?"
Small but pretty!
5/5 We stayed here and it was very scenic! A great place for 2 or less people! Very tight and could use some renovations but fun.

Hi Hailee, this homeowner has asked us to pass along the following response: "Thanks for taking a moment to share your appreciation. We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay and we appreciate your suggestion. Since your review was published in 2022, we have done a great deal of renovations to the property including all new windows, baseboards, sliding doors, a brand-new sauna, and a new refrigerator. We also had new flooring put in and surround sound has been added to the lower level. We hope you return soon so you can enjoy these new offerings!"
Rustic & Relaxing
5/5 We enjoyed our stay! The house is rustic -- but cute and clean. Having a screened in porch was a great bonus. We spent most of our time outdoors on the deck, dock and water. Great, timely communication with our host. Enjoyed the kayak and paddle boards on the quiet waters. The road is quiet and great for walking the dogs.
