Quiet lake provides for watching the loons on the calm water. Great for kayaking, canoeing, paddle boarding, and swimming.

Large screened in porch and 2 well lit fire pits for gatherings. Cozy wood finished camp with loft to rest after enjoying a day in Maines beautiful outdoors.

Foliage in the fall contrasting the evergreen and colorful leafed hills reflect picturesque views on the pond.

Lakeside Camp

We had a great time relaxing at the fishing camp on Holbrook Pond. It is full of charm and character. There is a ton to explore in the surrounding area as well

Had an amazing experience at this camp and immediately booked another week. It is everything the listing claims it to be and much more. 10 out of 10. I can't say enough good about the camp or the hosts. Also, top level bass fishing. Neil from CT.

Great stay on the lake!

Wonderful little camp with setup of all you'll need inside and out. Kitchen well furnished, comfy living room with smart TV, oodles of equipment for the lake (paddleboard, canoe, kayaks, fire pits and more) and thoughtful hospitality by the hosts. This camp is the perfect blend of old school and new school--charm and tech. It was just two of us and the size was perfect. Bonus that dogs are welcome! Great VRBO rental that we'd love to stay at again.

Perfect Place

Perfect location. Bangor was a short drive to the west and Bar Harbor and Acadia national Park were about an hour to the south east. Our kids and pup loved the lake. We enjoyed the canoes and paddle board that were available for use. Great fishing and wildlife right on the lake. The cabin is great and has everything you would need. Very cozy and well kept. The hosts were very responsive answering all of our questions. Highly recommend. We already want to go back.
