Great Moose Hunting Camp!
This camp was perfect for our moose hunt. You can literally see the access road to the North Maine Woods from the driveway. Plenty of parking, and great view of Portage Lake. The camp was exceptionally clean and well furnished. Beds were comfortable. Would absolutely stay here again.

The house was very clean as always and I enjoyed the festive fall decor! What always impresses me is that they have anything you would need or forget at home on hand. Chargers, cooking utensils, etc. The property is very well equipped for a comfortable stay!

Great location and property!
Very cozy, clean, and in a lovely location. Easy check-in and check-out, and Matt was easy to communicate with. Very short walk to the public beach, and the house was easy to find on Google Maps. Loved hanging out in the backyard. Thanks Matt!

"Unforgettable Getaway
I recently had the pleasure of staying at Matt's house, and it was an absolutely fantastic experience. The property is situated in a perfect location, right on the lake, offering stunning views and a serene atmosphere. The convenience of the location cannot be overstated – it provided easy access to nearby attractions and activities, making our stay both enjoyable and hassle-free. The house itself is beautifully maintained and well-equipped with everything you could possibly need. From the comfortable furnishings to the modern amenities, every detail has been thoughtfully considered to ensure guests have a comfortable and pleasant stay. The spacious layout was perfect for our group, allowing everyone to have their own space while still feeling cozy and connected. One of the highlights of our stay was the direct access to the lake. We spent countless hours enjoying the water, whether it was swimming, boating, or simply relaxing by the shore. The picturesque setting made for some unforgettable moments, and we truly appreciated the tranquility and natural beauty that surrounded us. Matt was an exceptional host, always available and responsive to any questions or needs we had. In summary, I highly recommend Matt's house for anyone looking for a wonderful getaway. The combination of the beautiful lakeside location, the well-appointed accommodations, and the excellent hospitality made for an unforgettable stay. We can't wait to return!

Wonderful place to stay
Cottage was clean, conveniently located, well stocked and great outdoor space with a beautiful view. It has a evening low light ambience. If you want to read or need a lot of light to do something, it definitely needs more lights or different bulbs in the common spaces and Bedrooms only have end table lamps. Lots of hot water for showers and laundry.

A month before coming to Maine we needed to find a new place to stay - Matt made everything easy and and answered all our questions. He even talked us through restarting the water heater while he was busy working. Everything was perfect and we can’t wait to come back!!

Northwoods Trip
Matt was an excellent host! He picked up the phone and answered texts immediately. I have stayed at 4 properties in the area and this was the best. The house had everything you would ever need to enjoy your stay from phone chargers to cooking/serving items, comfy beds, etc. The property was beautiful, right on the Lake and directly across from the the Northwoods entrance.

Absolutely loved the place and lake. Much more room in the camp than I thought. The only downside, which is very minor, was the amount of traffic and close proximity to the road.

Portage - Fire pit with great view
The camp was very nice and clean. The kitchen was certainly very well equipped. We cooked each night and had wonderful family dinners. Enjoyed the fire pit most nights just relaxing some and having smore's. Our grandson loved having the cornhole game to play. Matt emailed if we needed anything to just let him know. We didn't need anything but it was great to know he was available if needed. A wonderful camp and we all enjoyed it.

Beautiful Setting
Usually we stay in a hotel when we go north to see Mum, this time we decided to try renting a home to save drive time back and forth. Matt's lakehouse has a very warm, inviting feeling. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating for the five of us. Although weather didn't cooperate for us to enjoy the lake, sitting in the backyard still brought the peacefulness and tranquility desired. House is fully equipped with cooking and entertainment needs. Definitely see us going back! Thank you Matt and family for your hospitality!
