About this cabin rental

Shephard's Cabin

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Experience the splendor of the Maine Highlands at this Moosehead Lake retreat, a hand-crafted lakefront cabin with a private swimming dock, two kayaks to take out on the water, and an outdoor firepit and deck with views of the distant mountains and surrounding woodlands!

Tucked away in the trees on the Burnt Jacket Peninsula just 25 feet from the lake's edge, this home was constructed by a local craftsman using solid pine logs in the traditional way. The kitchen has a mini-fridge, a full-size stove, and an oven. You'll be amidst 12 acres of woods, trails, and shorelines and hundreds of acres of neighboring backcountry for hiking and snowshoeing. The cabin is also just nine miles south of Lily Bay State Park and 11 miles north of downtown Greenville (which is also reachable by boat).

THINGS TO KNOW
The jet pack WiFi is not suitable for remote work or streaming.
The full kitchen does not have a dishwasher.
A dirt road leads to the cabin, so a 4x4 that can handle wear and tear is best.
The lake is not accessible by snowmobile. Guests must trailer from the cabin to a public landing or parking area to access the lake or snowmobile trails.

Parking notes: There is free parking available for 3 vehicles.

Security camera details: Outside with view of driveway

Dock details: Docks and kayaks are available June through September, weather and lake conditions permitting. The dock is just for swimming or sitting, and not for mooring a boat.



Damage waiver: The total cost of your reservation for this Property includes a nightly damage waiver fee, plus tax if applicable (the “Damage Waiver”). (A discount may be applied for stays of 28 nights or longer, if permitted.) The Damage Waiver covers you for up to $3,000 of accidental damage to the Property or its contents (such as furniture, fixtures, and appliances) as long as you report the incident to the host prior to checking out. The Damage Waiver fee eliminates the need for a traditional security deposit.
More information can be downloaded from the "Rental Agreement" on the checkout page.

Due to local laws or HOA requirements, guests must be at least 25 years of age to book. Guests under 25 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian for the duration of the reservation.

A true place with modern amenities but feels like you are at the end of the world. Great for unplugging and family time!

We loved the quiet, the privacy, the sound of the Loons, and the stunning views of the lake. We couldn't quite see the sunset at this time of year, but if you hop in the kayak and go about 50 yards, you get a great view! I paddled for a couple of hours up the lake and there was a lot of natural beauty, unlike other more developed lakes. Everything was as mentioned in the listing. It was clean, well stocked with firewood, charcoal, everything but food and beach towels (at least I didn't see any). There are 2 kayaks (one is a tandem) and a paddle board. The master bed is extremely firm so if you have a queen pad, you might want to bring it. Would go back in a heartbeat.

The property was just perfect for our family of 4. We enjoyed the lake morning, noon & night. IF I had to find something to improve upon it would be the washer/dryer unit. For our active family over 8 days, cleaning towels and clothes was essential. The unit was small and time-consuming. But such a small factor in the big picture. We had a blast and would recommend the property to others without hesitation.
