Love the lake life
My family and I spent 2 weeks at short gap cabin. It is a lovely cabin which is beautifully decorated and furnished. The covered porch was great for sitting and for eating our meals while enjoying the view and sounds of the lake. The dock was also a great place to sit and enjoy looking at the lake and have your morning coffee. The cabin's location on the lake is great with a view of the open lake and the mountains. We definitely plan on coming back again. Morton & Furbish customer service was excellent.

Lake vacation
Lake side cabin with kayaks was a fun August getaway. The property inside & out was beautiful! We got to see the milkyway three nights of our stay and watch Saddleback Mountain turn deep purple every evening.

Great weather and location. Kitchen was missing a couple things that would be helpful. Broken Toaster, no measuring cups, no measuring spoons. Lucky for me I premix my pancake ingredients for an easy homemade breakfast. No real problems. Good space. Good times.

Short Gap Stay
Our 2 week stay at Short Gap was excellent. The position of this lovely cabin on Rangeley is perfectly situated in the quiet West end of Rangeley Lake, but with the view of the mountains behind Rangeley. The sunrises were spectacular and the water quality is superb. The cabin has everything we needed, and provided for comfort during our stay. We would have rated the cabin 5 stars had it had more of a chef's kitchen in terms of tools (cookware and utensils). Great stay and great neighbors in the area. Will stay again!
