This is a great rustic cabin in a wonderful location. Truly a beautiful spot with choice of the stream or lake. Great swimming area and having a canoe and kayaks available was perfect for exploring the stream and lake. The kitchen has everything you need and the updated bathroom is spacious. Loved that we could walk to town. Host was fantastic with communication and everything was as listed!
We enjoyed our time on Great Pond.

Rustic cabin in a wonderful setting. Built by L.L. Bean when he was a young man, this is an historic cabin with a modern bathroom. We are fishermen and they have great docks available. We love the quiet, peaceful setting of this little cabin in the forest. Great hosts and great get a way. Fishing is good for smallmouth bass and Northern pike in this lake.

This small cabin was perfect for my single person fishing trip. Great access to the water with a spot to dock my boat and leave my trailer.
Nothing fancy, but very quiet and relaxing

Beautiful location! Close to the village, the rustic and well equipped cabin, situated among the majestic tall pines is all our family needs to enjoy our lake vacation. Love both the front and back docks for sitting on to relax. Our kids enjoyed jumping in the water and fishing by the front dock and using the provided SUP and kayaks on the back dock. We got a small boat with no problem docking. Communication with Michelle is good and she tried to resolve issues with her best effort.
Maybe better window screens in the bathroom to stop the bugs flying in at night. Minor issue.
Definitely coming back next summer!

We loved this cottage. It was so peaceful and cozy, and we didn’t want to leave.

We didn't need anything fancy. Just a place on Great Pond, in the area near the marina, that would be comfortable while we spent time with extended family. This little place was perfect. I would definitely recommend it for a couple or young family.

Small cabin was built by L.L. Bean and is rustic but has modern plumbing and updated bathroom. We are fishermen and rented cabin because of the nice dock situation. There is one dock on the main lake but another one in back of the cabin on the small stream that flows out of the lake and this is very protected from wind and weather. Two kayaks, canoe, and PB's available at site. Perfect, and launch is close to bring boat around to dock. This was our second stay and we loved it and will be back.
Hosts are wonderful and very accommodating.

Everything was exactly as described. It was easy to talk to the host if I had any questions. It was the most gorgeous setting.

We had absolutely wonderful time staying at the cottage which has everything you need to make your stay comfortable - the kitchen is well stocked, plenty of supplies beyond kitchen as well.
The location is fantastic - we used both, the lake and the stream, kayaking, paddle boarding, and fishing. We also were swimming in the lake which is very clean! There are also plenty of nice hikes nearby.
Very lucky this cottage was available for the week we spontaneously decided to go on vacation! Thanks for the awesome week!

Relaxing time spent nestled between the water amongst towering pines.

The cottage is as advertised. Loved having a dock on both the lake side and stream side. Agree with the review that said bed and sheets were comfy. Disagree that the furniture should be updated. It’s camp, it’s charming, and it’s comfy. Loved listening to the loons, campfire, hammock, swim float, kayaks, and canoe. Location is ideal. Close to store and ice cream by foot, boat, or car. Cannot wait to return.

Lovely property with benefit of water access and a fire pit area. Perfect for people seeking a quiet getaway. We saw loons, turtles, a moose, eagles and a mink. Tall trees, sunshine and breezes-enjoyed swimming and kayaking.. Communication was excellent with Michelle.

This was our second year at the cottage. It’s a great location, walkable to town and access to the stream and lakeside. The added kayaks and fire pit are a huge bonus. We loved our stay!

Melissa & Debbie are wonderful hosts. We had an issue when we first arrived and texted them. Within a short time Debbie was at our door with what we needed & a bottle of wine 😊

Charming Rustic Cottage on Great Pond
This cottage was built by L.L. Bean and is rustic but updated, with retro kitchen and new bathroom. Lovely location on peninsula between stream and lake. If you are a fisherman there is a great dock at the boathouse on the stream side and a lakeside dock also. Site is fully shaded so we did not need AC in mid-July but there is a small AC unit in the living room if needed. Birds singing every morning, loons on the lake & great fishing, so all you need to be happy! Rea

Sweet cabin
The cabin is in a beautiful spot, with the the lake and old growth trees. The cabin is simple with all you need for a great stay. This is a great place to relax and enjoy what the region has to offer. The host is terrific, attentive, and clearly cares about ensuring a good visit. I'd like to go back.

Serene
We stayed one week, and thoroughly enjoyed both the cottage and location. Our 2 sons and their families enjoyed the firepit area with us. They sometimes came by boat and other times by car. They each had their own place. It was nice for all of us. Thank you ,Michelle

Just what we needed!
The cottage was great. Great location right near town - you could walk or kayak easily. We made use of the docks, fire pit, grill, kayaks, paddle boards and had an amazing time. It’s also always nice to have a little AC as an added luxury.

Great place for kids!
We had a fantastic week at Little Bean's Cottage. It was the perfect size for our family of four and my children were thrilled with the claw foot tub. The swimming was lovely and it was a great area for kids to explore the woods. Michelle was gracious and very informative. We look forward to returning next summer. The loons are already calling us back!

Had a fantastic vacation
Perfect quaint and rustic. Love this little hideaway that is in the absolute ideal location- close enough to the center of town with beautiful sunrise and sunset views. Great spot to sit fireside and access for boats and kyaks. Only 1 request would have been to have a screened in porch. Other than that a 10!

Perfect spot to get away from it all
It was the perfect reprieve from the craziness of the world! The cabin is adorable— super clean and had all the amenities we could hope for. I grew up locally and will definitely be back when I spend extended time with my family here.

Excellent location!
We really were able to relax and unwind from the usual hustle and bustle that is our usual lives. Property is perfectly located between a wide stream and Great Pond. Walking distance to local store for all your grocery needs. We really enjoyed our time there and our only regret is that we booked only one week!

Little Bean Cottage Rocks!
We absolutely adored this property. It is very campy, as it should be. The cottage has everything you would need. The location of the house is special and spectacular. You get to enjoy two sides of the lake, stream side and lake side. The owners were also wonderful to work with.

Great spot on Great Pond
This cabin was a great place to spend a week with our family. The location is perfect, with both lake and stream access. The setting is amazing and the cabin was quite comfortable for our family of six. We loved having access to the paddleboards and kayaks as well. Michelle was a wonderful and responsive host.
We can't wait to go back!

Vacation July 2020
We had a great vacation here. Cabin was very clean and neat. I loved the true Maine cabin feel of the house. It was great to have a place on the stream side to dock our boat. We saw many beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Great location also for kayaking or walking into town. We had a very nice time here.

Fishing Week with the guys
Had a great, actually awesome week, of fishing. Cottage was perfect with dock space and nearby boat launch. Hope to go back in spring 2020

Very nice fun cabin
Michelle is the best property manager we have ever encountered. Understand that this is a cabin, so it is not a luxury stay. It’s clean but not spotless. It is a lovely setting between a stream and a lake. If you are renting a boat you must Dockit in the stream as the week in the lake is too strong from the marina That is close by. There is constant jet ski and boat traffic on the weekends. Less so during the week. We did catch some pretty nice white perch right off the lake dock at about midday.
5.0
Relaxing
The cabin is a quiet place. It was nice to be able to kayak and walk to town.
Recommendation if you are thinking of renting a boat, do it ahead of time cause they were all reserved at the marina when we tried on our first day there.
Great hiking trails near by.
We had a good time and would rent there again

Piece of Heaven
This cottage is perfectly located between the stream and lake. The porch has two rockers perfect for reading or watching an afternoon storm. Inside the beds were comfortable and the bathroom is like a spa! This cottage has everything you need for a perfect vacation. The owner is great and ready to answer any questions. Can’t wait to come back.

Very nice camp
Very nice camp in a great, convenient location. Minor issues were taken care of right away. Only one bathroom, but it was recently upgraded, and very clean. Some of the furniture could use an upgrade, and new screens would help. Camp is 3/4 mile from town. I would stay there again.
