Our stay here in Exeter nature cabins was glorious, the host, Miss Debbie was very kind. The cabin was clean, and we absolutely loved where it is situated in the midst of the great outdoors of Maine. We definitely want to come back here and enjoy another vacation in this great spot.

We really enjoyed our stay. Debbie was very nice and easy to communicate with. The pictures don't do justice to the cabin, the garden and the view ! It's completely remote, very quiet. The lawn, walks and the forest are amazing and you can see a lot of animals. The cabin is very well equipped, comfortable and yes rustic but it's as advertised and charming. We will come back with more friends and family to enjoy all of this space !

Every year I take a long weekend with friends for a Girls' Weekend to get away from everyday life (this was year #11 so we've been to a lot of places). This year we stayed here and we absolutely loved it! It was quiet, private, and comfortable. It had everything we needed, including wood for the fire (we forgot to bring matches/lighter). The checkin and checkout process was so easy and simple, the beds were comfortable, and the amenities were great. I would definitely recommend if you're looking for something quiet to get away. This will be added to my list of places to which I would return. Highly recommend!

My family and I (6 children 2 adults) were taking an 11 day northeast road trip that included stops in beaches, cities, national parks, etc. This cabin served as a 2 day respite for the midpoint. What a getaway it was. We arrived late due to traffic and other concerns and the cabin was welcoming from the start. Plenty of room, lots of beds, and a quiet peaceful location. My 14 year old son told me upon arrival that "this is the kind of place I want to live." My younger children started asking how many days we could stay. We got into the unit and everybody showered and went to bed (the bathroom and shower were well sized and the water pressure/temperature was just right). Having a washer/dryer was a plus as it gave us a chance to reset our laundry situation. We spent our full day exploring the property, grilling, and making s'mores in the fire pit. When it came time to leave the children did not want to go. I highly recommend this off-the-beaten path property. It is a place to rest and connect with nature. Thank you!

This cabin was a nice place to stay for our excursions around Maine. While were were there, we were able to see wildlife everyday which was fun to see. The cabin definitely helps you disconnect from the business of everyday life!

Beautiful property, plenty of room, wonderful amenities. A place you can go to unplug and spend quality time with loved ones. The owners were friendly, and willing to help with anything we needed. We had an amazing time and wished we could stay longer, my kids didn't want to leave. I 100% recommend and we will be booking again.

Imagine waking up breathing the freshest air with distance smells of The Woods. The Exeter Cabin is the best place for ultimate quiet & relaxation. You won't find a more peaceful place to enjoy nature. If you're looking for a fancy place, this isn't for you. In order to appreciate The Woods, you either have to already understand the peacefulness of the outdoors or you will have a first hand experience if it's your first time. Debbie the host is very responsive, sweet, understanding and provides a rustic cabin experience on her beautiful 550 acres of natural beauty. Sleeps about 9 and you can bring pets. We are so happy we found Heaven on Earth at Exeter Cabins Be sure to pick up food at P&L market. You also have to experience Lobster in Maine Enjoy your day and have an awesome experience.

Debbie was delightful and easy to work with. The cabin was something out of a magazine. I instantly felt cozy and connected to the woods and fresh air. Hikes and a picturesque stream nearby. Full of wildlife. I woke up each morning woth coffee on the deck, listening to birds sing.

This cabin is perfect to host a small gathering in. Parking is a bit tight but we literally fell in love! Clean, roomy, great yard and just a beautiful view. Get up early, sit on the deck and enjoy the view, there are so many deer out there! The host, Debbie, is kind and thoughtful, she answers every call immediatly! The google gps will take you to a private road, gratefully the neighbors had a utv and guided my son to the Cabins, so he wasnt lost in the dark! If you use Apple maps it will get you there in record time! Enjoy your stay and if you forgot anything, its probably in the house!!

Loved this house! There was a lot of land out front which was very welcoming. Debbie left a full description of activities, local restaurants, hikes nearby, and even horseback riding that we definitely recommended!! She was very fast at responding and I would definitely suggest this house if you are considering staying here :)

The main cabin was wonderful to stay in. It's generously sized and had everything we needed (full bath, kitchen, washer/dryer). The surrounding property is quiet and beautiful. The owner provides good directions to find the cabin- make sure to use them! She also had a nice packet of information of where to find shopping, restaurants, etc. We would have loved to explore it more if we had had more time. I would love to come back and stay here again.

Easy check in process. Owner was very informative and respectful, giving us free roam of cabin and surrounding property as well as providing yard games and access to wood fireplace with firewood already processed and waiting. Cabin was roomy and with multiple levels, we were able to have alone time and own space to enjoy our stay fully. Also washer and dryer in basement is a nice touch and an excellent addition. 10/10 would highly recommend and we will 100% be returning to the Exeter cabins! Just make sure to bring citronella candles or other bug deterrents cause they do get bad.

It was a great experience. It is off the beaten path but close enough to Bangor and other places to go explore. The only thing was the roads were dirt, and we were not anticipating that, so that's on us and not the host. We will definitely stay here again next time we need to come up to the Bangor area.

The property manager lives next door and came by a few times. The grills didn’t work. Note that there are muddy dirt roads to get to the property so be aware with cars and if it rains. Nice cabin. Tub had some plumbing issues when we were there. Nice fire pit.

Really enjoyed our stay at the cabin here. The host was very communicative and helpful. The huge fireplace is a wonderful feature of the main area, and the available trails were great for snowshoeing through (and snowshoes were provided by the hosts). A great cozy old cabin to relax in for a long weekend.
