Reunion of family camp and surprised my two sisters with the stay.
It was such a heartwarming time. We were so lucky the weather was beautiful for a November. Lots of memories from past there and we made new memories.

Great location
Beautiful setting on Pushaw lake. The cabin was great. Had some issues with the septic system and had to conserve water for half our stay. The septic pumper never arrived while we were there, although the system never backed up. Great “cabin” feel and in the peak of fall colors.

The near miss
The cottage is well appointed and in a great location. Tiffany was very responsive as a property manger. There was so much to love about our stay at this lakefront cottage. I wanted to start my review on a positive but also note that a lot went wrong as well. I wish I had known a few things about the property before reserving the space 1. The house does not have a generator, we lost power on the second day of our stay which meant we did not have any running water as well as no electricity. I have never stayed in a home that the water was tied to the power so this came as a bit of a shock. The toilets did not flush and nothing came out of the taps when they were open. It was restored by the next afternoon but once it came back on the septic tank alarm went off. 2 A full septic tank can result in the contents backing up into the house. This meant that even though the water was running we could not flush toilets, wash dishes or bath. These issues began on Tuesday evening (day 2 of our 5 day stay) the septic tank was emptied on Thursday afternoon (day 4 of 5) It was very frustrating to have paid to stay in a home without being able to flush toilets, shower or even wash your hands. I have 7 & 5 year old boys and some other troubling issues with the cottage included some nails that were sticking out of the stair wall. There was also a large piece of furniture in the boys room that was not secured to the wall. It wobbled so much that we couldn't leave the boys up in the room unsupervised for fear that they would have it fall on them while trying to get to the toys and books on top. Tiffany mentioned that she passed all of the issues that we had on to Jill the owner but at no time did the she reach out to see if we were OK or to offer us anything not even an apology. I don't know if the tank was full because we chose to bath on our first day there but if showering or taking a bath is something you can't do in a rental it would probably be a good thing to know. If it weren't so cold out we may not have been so bothered by everything that happened but it was Maine in February so we did spend a lot of time indoors. The location is great, the neighbors were all very nice but the septic tank issues were awful. I probably wouldn't have written this review if the owner of the property had reached out to apologize. It made me think that the issues we had were pretty ordinary and if I had known that before I booked I would have gone elsewhere.

Exactly as described
We really enjoyed spending Christmas here. The cottage was perfect to spread out and let everyone have some space but still spend time together. The cottage is right on the lake and the winter views were beautiful. Great communication with property manager The roads were cleared quickly after a small snow. The neighborhood was quiet and well kept. It took about 15 minutes to get to town for groceries, etc. There is a nice kitchen and bathroom. The two bedrooms upstairs beds are so comfy. The kitchen has everything we needed. The stairs are steep so might not work for people with mobility issues.
