Pretty clean. Lift is very small. Ladder left out in the middle of the kitchen was a bit of a hassle. No locks in windows and a very small bathroom. Cooking utensils old and worn out. Pans Teflon’s scratched. Poor light in the kitchen area so difficult to cook after dark. Missing window shades on the side window and front door. We had to put sheets and towels up at night. Uneven flooring throughout the cabin. Tv s have Only a few channel selections. cable went out a few times. Bedroom tv didn’t work and a small water heater. I ran out of water while showering after my spouse. No dishwasher or washer and dryer. Beautiful views but very remote. Watch out for ticks and check yourselves and Your pets.

Beautiful view
We had a wonderful stay at the Overlook. The view was fantastic, use of kayaks & fire pit was great & we totally relaxed with our pup. The only thing we could have used was info on where the transfer station was, how to get the bedroom TV to work (we figured it out, though) & a starter roll of paper towels. Aside from these minute issues, this is a wonderful cabin to escape to! I’d definitely stay here again!

Toddy Pond Is Beautiful!
We loved our stay at this super cute little cabin. The view of the lake was so beautiful, the beds comfortable, and the place was clean. 😍 We were there in June and a heat wave came through with temperatures up to 95°. There is no air conditioning in the cabin and with those high temperatures it made sleeping uncomfortable. The only other thing that was a bummer was that the next-door neighbor has a light that turns on at dusk and stays on ALL night near their dock. That light, ruins your stargazing and any night photos of the moon and the lake. I understand that the owners of this cabin can’t do much about their neighbors, but it was really disappointing (and unnecessary) to have light pollution at such a beautiful location. — Over all this little cabin is charming and we enjoyed our stay!

Perfect spot to get away!
This little cottage was the prefect get away for our family of 5. Our children LOVED the upstairs loft area and having their own little beach with the kayaks. The beach is beautiful and very relaxing. The loft area is more for children than it is adults. I would say the cottage fits 2 adults (bed downstairs) and 3 children (loft upstairs) perfectly. We did need to purchase some items (toilet paper, hand soap, dish soap, cleaning spray, and a sponge)- so plan to bring those items with you. Everything else was provided- towels, cookware, glassware, Keurig machine, etc. Neighborhood is very quiet. Bar Harbor is about 45-50 min away. Communication was great. We did not have any issues with service. Overall we loved our stay! Thank you!

Great waterfront view
Really like the fun and convenience of staying in a cabin. This property needs a deep clean and a lot of maintenance. 29 miles from Acadia and most days/nights took us about 50 minutes to drive. Furniture is worn out and uncomfortable to sit in. Shower worked well. Price was a lot less than a Bar Harbor hotel. Best part was the waterfront location.

Peace and Tranquility on the Lake
This property is a hidden gem! It wasn't fancy but had all the necessities. The queen bed was beyond comfortable affording us the best sleep we've had in weeks. Though we didn't get to take advantage of the kayaks and beach because of windy weather, it was a lovely place to start and end each day. It was a little further from Bar Harbor and Acadia N.P. then we had anticipated. Round trip was usually between 1.5-2 hours. But it was worth it to wake up to that view and have that kind of silence in the evenings. We would definitely stay there again. Thanks for the hospitality.

Cozy Cottage with a stunning view!
When we arrived ,after driving for 4 3/4 long days ,I spent the first day cleaning and scouring the stove , cabinets inside and out, the bath room fixtures , and front windows, fortunately it was raining ...but the view was outstanding!. We left the place in pristine condition , clean, stocked with a new set of glasses, and necessary cleaning products. Nichole, you might want to hire a new cleaning service. This cottage is a GEM! Gorgeous view , nice shore, and fire pit . We entertained dear friends for dinner, We cooked and ate more delicious fresh seafood .(Johnson's on Main St. in Blue Hill ) I would highly recommend this Maine getaway, on beautiful Toddy Pond .

Lots of great things about this property: Views Beach/Lake right out the door Clean towels and linens Had everything we needed for a comfortable stay Book and game collection Kayaks/Paddle boat A few things could use improvements but did not negatively affect our stay: Bathroom was a bit messy on arrival - hair and sand in shower Wi-Fi hotspot was out of data but we did not inform the host as we didn’t need it Many of the windows didn’t lock but we felt very safe Wood was cracked in bedroom window and door Many of the blinds were broken/didn’t work but this didn’t affect our privacy We would return to this property for another visit!

Not my best stay but host tried to help
The house was in a great location. Unfortunately there was some housekeeping items that were neglected and I never got internet. The host was away but able to reach a friend to help clean and take care of some of the issues and she was gracious about refunding me some of the money.

Our sweet spot that we discovered and look very forward to going mto!
We love this place; stayed there twice this year (2022); because it's on the water with the kayaks and paddleboard made it all so enjoyable. The firepit on the water's edge at night was a great way to end the day. I am from the south; my son lives in NYC and my daughter and her family live in New Brunswick so it's a great meeting place for us. Also, the recommendations made by the owner/rentor of nearby places to go were totally serendipitous! (Blue Hill, Stonington, etc) Hope to get back there many more times!

Relaxing at Toddy Pond
The cottage was small, but had everything we needed. The loft was reached by a fold down ladder that was difficult for me to reach, as I am only 5 ft tall, and my sister that was with me, is not much taller than me...so it was a bit of a struggle. The views out the window overlooking the pond were amazing with the color change of the foliage! It was a nice place to relax, after visiting Acadia National Park, during the day.

Quaint Cottage for relaxation!
My boyfriend and I wanted to get away from our busy lifestyles. This cottage right on the lake was the perfect spot! Hearing the loons in the morning on the lake made it a perfect paradise for a relaxing getaway. The views were so lovely! The cottage was very clean and inviting. Definitely would stay again!

Comfortable, good location, clean. Cabin needs some TLC, a few things were broken (cabinet door, shower curtain, window locks). We were hesitant to use the outdoor grill, due to grease build up in the bottom- fire hazard. Very quiet, no traffic and beautiful view of pond.
