Reading, fishing and fun doing nothing!

My wife and I had a great week in late August living on the island with the Osprey and hummingbirds!!! We both really enjoyed the quietness, the cabin is cozy and the bed is comfortable. The sitting room is so relaxing when you open the doors and let the breeze and sounds of nature flow through the room. There is a grill and floating rafts to use. The stove and fridge both worked great. Also the “composting” toilet was more than acceptable…just like a real one (without the water). Very clean, without odor and most time there were no bugs or at most a minimum amount were to be found.
The paddle out took all of two minutes tops. I can personally attest that the fly-fishing in the surrounding area is ideal for bass; the fish are literally in your backyard no more than 50 yards away. There is even an anchor for the boat in the shed. We found a great gourmet deli/wine/beer store that has all sorts of libations from around the world and food to go that you can get raw of they will cook it for you. Also they will steam lobsters etc….its only 10 minutes away; at the corner of lake and 202 (next to the Conoco’s) I can’t remember the name, we put their flyer in the folder. Also we found a great antique store with many dealers in Fairfield, ME. About 25 minutes away but well worth the trip compared to other stores. Lastly, Debbie the owner was very polite, professional and down to earth, she made the rental process very easy. We have many fond memoires from there that will be with us forever. It’s a real Maine delight is right!!!
