Great location! Just what we were looking for. We fished and enjoyed the waterfall. We had a fire. Everything had been thought of and prepared. We were very comfortable. It was a great experience!

Machelle’s A-frame was so comfortable! The property felt secluded and was incredibly scenic. The short trail leading to the little waterfalls was so cool, and we enjoyed taking out the canoe on the lake.

The campsite was beautiful!! Our group of 6 was comfy in the A-frame and 2 tents. Everything we needed and more was provided, we’d highly recommend staying here!! Drive to Acadia was easy as well

We had such a great time here! Machelle thought of everything. She sent a thorough message ahead of time listing all of the utilities the site offers and nearby recommendations (including a trail on her property along the stream and a nearby market). The site was well marked, with clear directions. It was about 45 minutes to/from Acadia, but well worth the drive for this private, magical getaway. We loved canoeing in the daylight, as well as by starlight, and the dogs loved exploring the site and playing in the water. A plethora of extra blankets were provided to keep warm in the A-frame, as well as everything needed for a comfortable stay. Very grateful for this experience!

Machelle’s land was complete magic. I have traveled and lived all over the world, and this was by far one of my favorite places I’ve ever stayed. Machelle had personal touches everywhere. She has everything you need for cooking on the campsite, and there is even a sunflower trail she created on the property that leads to a waterfall. You can canoe on the lake, picnic and more. I wish I could give this place more stars, highly recommend and we cannot wait to come back.

Our stay was great. The A Frame was very private and right on the lake. Wish the weather had been better, but the A Frame kept us dry. Would love to go back.

A-Frame tent with clear roof
My partner and I had a lovely time and were lucky enough to experience the newly built A-frame, which was very comfortable and well-outfitted with all the camp essentials.
The site was private and we enjoyed sitting by the fire with the water views (plus access to a canoe was great). The string lights and candles made it feel like a magical forest by night. It was also really lovely to look up in the A-frame and see the ripples of light reflecting off the water in the trees above (thanks to the clear roof).
The location and proximity to Acadia National Park was convenient. Would recommend this hidden gem! Make sure to bring extra bug spray :)

This was the best glamping experience my partner and our dog have ever had. The site was GORGEOUS! The host thought of everything we could need.
Directions were clear and plenty of privacy.
Gorgeous kayaking and cute trail. About 30 mins to Acadia
