Palermo Vacation Rental cabin

We highly recommend this cabin to all those interested. There are two screened porches, great for drinking coffee (or the beverage of your choice) and listening to the sounds of the loons. It is hard to see the lake from the cabin (lots and lots of trees) but that added to the charm of seclusion. The lake was beautiful. Be careful on the path leading to the lake as it is a little steep for the feeble and elderly. Children and the physically fit (and somewhat fit) will do just fine. The driveway is off the beaten path and is about a half mile drive back from the road. You feel like you are in the wilderness. The cabin itself was clean, well kept and well stocked. I loved all the polished wood (floors, walls and ceiling). You can't help but notice the pride of ownership. There are many afghans to snuggle into on those cool evenings. For those interested in TV, please note the satellite does not pick up local stations (although there is a slightly older/fuzzier TV in the loft that does). The cabin location was ideal for us. We wanted to see as much of Maine as possible during our 6 day stay. We visited Belfast (try the restaurant at the end of Rt. 3, right on the water), Bangor, Old Town, Waterville, Augusta, Camden, Bucksport, Freeport (L.L.Bean), and our highlight - Arcadia National Park and Bar Harbor (best chowder I have ever had!). It would have been easy to spend a full day at Arcadia as well as L.L. Bean. (Maybe...just maybe... Kevin will tell you his L.L. Bean joke!) All cities mentioned previously are an easy drive from the cabin and the scenery was great. We tried to stay off the major highways and instead took the backroads which were well marked (MOST of the time!) I would definitely return and/or rent from this owner again. Enjoy your stay! We did!

I am originally from Maine and wanted a true Maine experience for my family vacation. This place was great...it far exceeded our expectations. It is very clean and offers great amenities for being so secluded. The owners were very helpful and accessible for any questions we had. We spent the week floating on the pond and doing daytrips to visit family and Acadia National Park. I highly recommend this rental. The cabin is truly in a serene secluded environment. The owners have done a great job providing wonderful lodgings in such seclusion. Fishing is also great on the pond!

If you want seclusion, peace and quiet, and
gorgeous surroundings, this is the place for you.
Listen to the sounds of the woods on the screened
porch, walk down to the lake and take the canoe
out for a paddle, or skip stones onto the lake. Our
kids had a blast stuffing their faces with
blackberries along the dirt road leading to the
cabin.
