Riverview cabin
Cozy cabin in a quiet, peaceful setting by a beautiful river and the nicest host ever…all the things you need for a perfect weekend getaway. Cabin has a well equipped kitchen. Kayaks available for fun on the river. Jamin delivered our bags and us via atv down the short path to the cabin door and checked in with us each day to make sure we had everything we needed. We had a great stay!

Quaint cabin in prime location
This place is awesome. Cabin was hand built by Jamin and is extremely impressive. We have a nice tranquil night here, with desires to partake in all of the activities that are very accessible but we limited on time. Perfect halfway spot for those traveling from Boston to Katahdin/Baxter State Park. Only complaint was that sheets/towels were not the most fresh. Otherwise, would recommend.

Riverview cabin
We were grateful for Jamin's generous hospitality and cozy cabin. Communication was quick, the cabin design was delightful, and there is a lovely inlet to the river nearby with kayaks available. No running water but Jamin provided a jug for us. The cabin is tucked down a little road behind an ATV repair shop and kids were excited for a ride on an ATV down to the cabin. The latrine has a port-a-toilet and plans are for it to include a shower. Lots of thoughtful details.
Among the range of campers / hipcampers / outdoor enthusiasts, some aim towards more versus less technology. For those in the low-tech crowd, you should know that this cabin has electricity from a portable generator. The TV and coffee maker will be an upside to some, and the generator noise & exhaust will be a downside to others. We opted for the generator (which Jamin kindly started for us) for a little bit of the evening, then turned it off for the remainder of our stay.

Great value
My family of three (me, my partner Amy and our 5-yo son, Bison) rented Jamin's camp for a single night as we were moving North. Jamin and his family were really friendly and helpful. The camp was exactly as described in it's listing; the location within the woods, near the river, is awesome. We would totally return if we're ever passing though again.

Awesome stay for an overnight with baseball tournament playing kids! The walk to the cabin is easy, peasy.

Riverview cabin
This cabin is really nice. Like a few others said, it is larger than it looks in the pictures. Jaimie was responsive to the few things that went awry. The electricity shorted out several times as it is run on a gas generator that is quite loud and not quite powerful enough. An electric generator might be quieter and provide more power.
We also ran into some problems with the coffee maker, but as I said each time our host responded quickly which I appreciated. Sitting on the screened in porch when the generator was off (we used candles for light) was beautiful, especially during the rain. The property is quite scenic, although there is a small amount of poison ivy on the trail to the river so be careful. Light cleaning was required when I got there, but after an hour the place looked really good. (FYI, my cleaning standards as a female 68 year old might be a bit more stringent than the average “camper.”) The firepit looked inviting even through the rain. My overall feeling was that it is a great cabin and Jamin was an awesome host in a beautiful spot, but a little rethinking about the generator and the electricity, plus some “between guests cleaning” would make this a phenomenal spot!
