I enjoyed my stay at Twin Bucks Cabin. It was nice and clean and the bed was very comfortable. An electric heater kept it warm even with temperatures at night in the upper 30s and there is also a secondary heater for when it gets really cold. You have electricity to keep all your things charged. There is no WiFi but with my cell carrier I had a good signal and could get online that way no problem. So it was warm, cozy and comfortable. Very quiet (with an occasional owl or loon calling!) And the hosts checked to see if I there was anything at all that I needed. Great place, great hosts!

We will be back!

Spectacular location for exploring downeast. Carol went above and beyond in accommodating us. The cabin has the perfect amount of amenities for one looking for a more cozy camping experience. We loved having access to the grill for cooking and being lulled to sleep by loon calls on Orange Lake

The cabin was very clean and well maintained. It was clear that the hosts had put a lot of time and effort into making everything as comfortable as possible. The firepit was great and the wood provided was well seasoned. I'd highly recommend and love to go back!

I stayed one night at Carol's cabin and enjoyed it a lot. It's peaceful and the two bucks are there too, which is funny and gives a sense of history to the place. With electricity to recharge your phone, wood to start a fire, a barbecue to cook and heat to warm the chilly nights, you'll have all you need to be happy in the woods. Carol is very responsive and can tell you what to do in the area depending on your interests.

Weekend Trip to Twin Bucks Cabin 🦌🦌

We loved camping on Carols property. The cabin was cozy with 2 twin beds that were comfy. She provides some reading material so you get to know the area and have some ideas of what to do. The night time was super quiet, there are no sounds other than the sound of a loon calling from a across the water. If you want to get away from it all and find some peace I would recommend staying at Twin Bucks. Carol was very responsive and accommodating. We plan on staying again in the very near future!

We loved Sienna’s sweet lodging in the woodsy glen, and stayed an extra day to enjoy it. She was responsive and helpful throughout our stay and has thought of every detail inside the cabin and around- the bed was very comfortable, the outdoor shower delightful and we kept the side lifted for most of the day. We will definitely return and are telling all our friends about this wonderful spot!

I enjoyed staying in the cabin but unfortunately it was a one night stay and that one night was a big rain storm. Since I came in on a motorcycle and was already drenched it kind of hindered my ability to really enjoy everything this place had to offer. While I was stuck inside the cabin I found it incredibly clean, comfortable, and well appointed. I was surprised by the lack of bugs present seeing as there are many ways for them to get in as there are lots of gaps between the wood siding. I hope to return when I can enjoy the firepit and outdoor area another time. The rain did provide a wonderful soundtrack to sleep to and the kitchen is well stocked with all you need to cook with.

Weekend Trip to Twin Bucks Cabin 🦌🦌

Very cute, quaint cabin with true serenity. Keep driving down Sunrise way and you will see a sign that says “twin bucks cabin” and the cabin will be very visible from the driveway. Cabin is very convenient to so much coastal hiking from easy to challenging, depending on your comfort level. Carol and Billy have done a good job keeping the cabin clean and tidy. Reading material is provided (local hiking brochures, magazines, etc) which was a nice surprise as I got bored of my own book that I brought. Some battery powered lanterns are provided but I suggest bringing your own as not to waste their batteries. Feels very rural but you are a quick 15ish minutes drive from Machias and Lubec with all the general creature comforts (restaurants, grocery store, gas stations). Very responsive and helpful hosts! Thank you for hosting me and my pup Meeko! Will be back!

3 nights at Salt and Oak Farm

I usually visit NYC for my birthday but this year I decided to try something completely different and this was the full 180 from NYC. Instead of waking to the honking of traffic, it was the beautiful sounds of birds (and the friendly roosters). Though it was cold, I went into this knowing to bundle up. I brought extra blankets and was plenty warm. As another review posted, I brought battery powered string lights and a few extra candles and loved reading in the cozy bed at night. We did go through a lot of wood so we bought another bundle. Sorry to the hosts for using so much wood and candlelight! The chickens were absolutely hilarious. They surrounded us every time we walked by. I loved the mellow horses and all of the other animals. It was difficult not to just hang out with them all day. We hiked around the land and went into town a few times. Everyone was so friendly. Highly recommend for nature lovers!
