Cutest Cozy Cabin

This place was absolutely amazing! I needed a quiet place to write and just chill, and this cabin was perfect for that. The view of the waterfront was incredible, especially for watching the sunset. And the inside was so cozy and cute. I would definitely recommend this place if you're looking for a nice, quiet getaway.

Stay at Dexter Pond

We really loved our stay at this very quaint and cozy cabin. It was very clean and had all of the supplies you would need in the bedrooms, bathroom and kitchen. We would stay here again if in the area in the future. It is very easy to get to and you really feel you are away from it all. But then you are still very close to Augusta, Winthrop and Lewiston. And just a short drive to Portland.

Cozy cabin on lake!

We spent two nights at the cabin as a family of 4 with two kids 11 and 15 they had fun sleeping in the loft (but it’s definitely for the able-bodied to get up and down from there). The house is rustic and charming and has everything you need. We went out on the lake using the kayaks and made s’mores in the outdoor fire.

Fantastic Fishing weekend

Lou-Anne and Rick were extremely helpful and accommodating. The cabin was immaculate, well-appointed, and picturesque. We asked to bring our small boat and they helped us with logistics and navigation of the ponds. Lots of fish and fun. Our family our last gasp of summer .

Fun holiday weekend

The cabin is exactly as stated in the description. One A/C unit in the cabin and it cooled it off great. I called him with a question in reference to the well water and he came over and fixed it immediately. We traveled 8 hrs from Philadelphia and asked if we could check in earlier and he was very accommodating. I come to Maine every couple of months to visit my son and his family so I will definitely book again!

The cabin is quaint and very clean. Having use of their kayaks and canoe made for a fun afternoon. The loft was a bit tricky for my husband and I to go up and down. Actually, it was hilarious. Haven’t laughed that hard in a long time. All in all, it’s a great little getaway spot.

About the host

Hosted by Lou-Anne & Rick Parker

Host profile image
We were both raised in Maine, we were high school sweethearts. Rick joined the United States Marine Corps and made it his Career. After 20 years serving we came back home to Maine to raise our children with family. After retiring we moved to Winthrop on Berry pond . We now spend our time in the town we love, enjoying the outdoors, grandchildren and sharing our cabin.

Why they chose this property

When we came back to Maine to visit, while Ricked served we always came back to the Dexter . We enjoy the peacefulness of this area. We have never been disappointed.

What makes this property unique

Location! The cabin is nested between the ponds and Mt Pisgah! The quietness is very relaxing. You can feel the time slowing down. A mile in the woods but only 15 minutes from all your needs
