Waterless
I wanted to really enjoy and relax, for the couple days I was there. The cabin was cute and clean. The location was beautiful. I would have given it 5 stars except, the water wasn’t working…which meant the toilet wasn’t flushing. When I first arrived, someone knocked on the door and said he was called to check the water. I knew nothing about it and was not informed of any issues before arriving, which I told the man as such. He asked to come in to check real quick and I said sure. He turned on the kitchen sink, which seemed to be working and he left. About an hour or so after, I discovered (after using the toilet) the toilet tank was empty and the water coming out of the faucet was a dribble at best. I contacted the support line via text twice and received the same message. They had contacted the local help and someone would be in touch. No one contacted me. I called the next morning to speak to someone and the woman said she has informed the local help and someone would be coming over in an hour or two to fix the problem(this was at 9:00 am). Meanwhile, the toilet, full of waste, brewed a little longer. A couple hours came and went, no one showed. I had planned on going to Bar Harbor to wander around, but thought I’d better stay put in case. Now it’s 2:30 and I’m running out of the water I brought, no bucket around to get water from the lake to try to flush the poo down and my insides were very unhappy and needed relief. So I left a note on the door saying I’d be bask ASAP, although it would take at least an hour, (20 mins to and fro, plus time to get water and use the public bathroom). I got back around 3:30… no one.. they had my cell, no call, no show. I had to buy 8 gallons of water to “flush” the toilet, using 4 then taking the empty containers down to the lake to fill back up and flush again, leaving the other 4 for drinking and dishes and washing and brushing teeth. So, not quite the experience I was looking for. Glad it was just me and my dog, otherwise it would have been VERY stressful. I made it work and left a note for whoever was coming in to clean that I did my best. Just frustrating that no one informed me right away, the guy didn’t really know what was going on either, then no one came to fix it when they said someone would…. Not sure I’d want this experience again.

Water pressure.
It is an older cabin and has the "up north" charm. Great waterfront, great view from the living room. The water pressure is bad. Water spits and sputters, toilet gurgles and roars. We were very surprised/disappointed by this. At this price it should be better!
