About this property
Great Pond Shoreline- Charming Log Cabin
Welcome to the cabin where the hobbits must live- talk about charm!
This cabin is one of few remaining original structures from the once popular cottage community called "Log Haven". Located along the banks of Great Pond, "Cabin 6" is a unique property. The log cabin is quaint, loaded with charm and ambiance. It is a reflection of what the old Maine camps once were, yet has been completely modernized. The spirit of the camp nudges our guests to relax and settle in for a memorable vacation.
The inside of the cabin is warm and enchanting. An open floor plan blends the living, dining, and kitchen spaces. The fully equipped kitchen invites one to create sumptuous feasts for family and friends. The cabin is warmed on those chilly mornings or nights by either the efficient wood stove or a Rinnai heater.
The cabin has a master bedroom with a double bed and a second bedroom with built in bunk beds. An old fashioned open air, screened sleeping porch with two twin beds provides the sleeper with nightly serenades from the loons or the sound of the wind and the waves. The screened porch has a small seating area- another cozy place to watch the waterfront.
The cabin's dock is steps away. You can hang out on the dock for swimming, boating, or counting the loons during the day or the stars by night. Because of the location on Great Pond's prime eastern shore, most evenings are spent dockside watching the golden sunset; henceforth, the nickname for Great Pond as being “Golden Pond.”
Great Pond is known for the quality of its water. The lake is pristine. The topography of the shoreline at our camp allows children to easily swim along the rocky shallows of the lake. There is a gradual slope to the lake bottom so the water is shallow enough for children to easily swim, yet at the end of the dock the water is deep enough to allow for easy access for a power boat to get in and out from the dock. Kayaks, canoes, row boats, sailboats, power boats and pontoon boats are all welcome. Many a smallmouth bass has been caught right from the dock or from a boat trolling the lake. Fishing is fun on Great Pond.
We are located 15 minutes from Waterville or 20 minutes from Augusta. One can find fine restaurants, shopping, and other amenities in both locations.

About the host
Hosted by Cricket
My family first rented in this cabin community in 1943. Five generations of our family members have vacationed at this place. We were able to purchase three cabins in 2010. We have done extensive renovation on our cabins making them modern without sacrificing the charm or ambiance of old Maine camps.
