Amenities' Details (Cont'):
Cellphone reception at SpruceLedge Cabin is good, depending on the device, service host, other conditions and where caller is standing (outside on deck, inside, etc). The hard line telephone offers free local calling (you'll be billed for the others, but bring your cellphone if you wish to avoid these) and an answering machine if you want one.
Suitability: SpruceLedge Cabin is only available for rent to people who are responsible and generally at least 25 years of age. The cabin is suitable for anyone who is able to walk up and down a secure, well built, woodsy, nighttime-illuminated, 74-step pedestrian riverbank stairway/ramp system (see photos), or an adjacent gravel trail of about 150-feet in length varying from 0-20% in slope (approximate). Therefore, though having a spectacular view, private access to the water and modern amenities, the property may not be suitable for anyone needing close supervision or who is physically infirm; so please ask about your own circumstances.
Amenities' Details (Con't):
Picture this--- you're sitting on the deck surrounded by the quiet woods, or you're down on the dock catching a fish for dinner--- and you're watching the sun set in a spectacular sky over the far shore. Or, on a beautiful morning with the sun just peeping over the ridge behind you--- with a hot cup of breakfast coffee in hand--- you're on the deck, high above the river, watching the local lobstermen haul, harvest and re-set their numerous multi-colored pots, the wide variety of other boating activity on the river, and the abundant wildlife. Great blue heron, ducks, ospreys, if you're lucky even a resident pair of bald eagles pass by your gaze--- or perhaps you've gone down to the river to arrange for lobster drop-offs from one of the local fishermen, just in time for a classic Maine dinner--- 'finest kind'' !!
