David purchased the property from his parents and built the log cabin, sauna and privy with good friends who also constructed the Rope Bridge. Linda came along in 2000 and moved in with her dog. David was just finishing up a bedroom addition to the cabin, just in time! We got married on the property in 2002. Our family gathers together a lot throughout the summers and we have a ski commute to our vehicles during the winter. We love to share our cabin with those of like mind. It's truly a sweet spot!

Riverbend Cabin and Sauna
An incredible place!!
An incredible place, such a hidden gem. Stayed for two nights halfway through our tour of Maine with my husband, kids (13 & 11 yrs) and one puppy . Linda and David were just so lovely, so welcoming and thoughtful. The cabin is absolutely one of a kind, clean, cosy and extremely comfortable. It felt so good to be away from every day life especially for our children - to show them there’s so much more to the world than phones and computers. They absolutely loved the River, lazing in the hammock, watching the hummingbirds outside the cabin window, playing cards by oil lamp light, building fires and of course experiencing the privy! The sauna was a really special treat. I thoroughly recommend a stay here!

Riverbend Cabin and Sauna
Peaceful, relaxing, lots to do!
Cute cabin, sauna, and a beautiful view! We spent our day swimming in the river listening to nature, we went back up to dry off and sit by the fire! Our dog loved it and so did we. Linda is very welcoming and friendly and very helpful showing us the way around the camp! Highly recommend!
