My two sons, two dogs and I had a wonderful stay at the Dodge Lodge! The view is amazing and we thoroughly enjoyed kayaking the pond, though my son had zero luck catching any fish. This is truly a lodge in the woods about a half hour from civilization. As you might imagine, that has its pros and cons. If you're seeking to truly escape hustle-bustle, indulge nature, capture serenity and all its amazing views, this is your getaway gem! Our host Paul was beyond exceptional - extremely communicative!

We spent a fall week at Paul’s place. The place was just right for our family of 3 and we loved the location!

We had a wonderful time at the Dodge Lodge! Mr. Dodge was excellent to speak with he answered all of my questions and was very kind! The cottage itself was great, it was exactly as described and the views of the sunrises were unbeatable!!

We enjoyed a very peaceful and relaxing week at this quaint Maine "camp." Beautiful sunrises and morning coffee on the porch, kayaking on the calm pond, and moonlit campfires. We found everything to be exactly as described in the listing. If you are expecting 5-star accommodations, this probably isn't the property for you. This is, however a very nice "camp" cottage with a full kitchen, electric, plumbing, and a full size water heater. Two main floor bedrooms with double beds were quite small with limited storage. Upstairs loft had six single bed bunks. As another review mentioned, the matress wasn't the most comfortable, but I believe the host mentioned plans to replace matresses next summer. Also, as mentioned in the listing and in other reviews, there is a ramp and stairs from the driveway to the cottage. This provided a bit of a challenge, as I'm a few weeks from knee replacement surgery - not impossible, but definitely something to be aware of for guests with mobility issues. The host provided excellent communication prior to our arrival and made an effort to get in touch with us during our stay to ensure that we didn't have any questions or issues. Centrally located and within an hour or two of a lot of things to see and do. We took day trips to Bangor, Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor, Camden, and Lupec. My husband is already talking about going back and taking another couple or our adult children with us next time. We definitely enjoyed our time at the "Dodge Lodge."

We savored our time at the Dodge Lodge with its gorgeous views of the lake, whether from the upstairs bedroom, the sunporch, and the dock. If you're looking for a luxurious lakeside experience in a newer cabin, you'll see from the listing that this isn't in any way pretending to be that! But if you're looking for a camp full of character and time and soul, with beautiful light and lots of great details (the air hockey table in the boathouse, the built-in shelves in the sunroom, the wooden steps to the dock), then you've found your happy place. We deeply appreciated our two weeks here, treating this lovely camp as our own, and we are excited that we will be back next year!

The area is beautiful. Everything was as stated. Found a few things, storage for food had no cupboard space. The Ramp was steep, anyone with difficulty ambulating would find it hard getting up and down. Space was limited in living area due to "Cabin Clutter" and oversize furniture. It had everything somewhere! Up in bunk area beds were uncomfortable. Recliner was great. Everything work. Many steps to dock and front door. All are visible in pictures. TV and Wi-Fi worked well. Rent again, probably, Camps are Camps!

My wife and i had an absolutely wonderful stay at the Dodge Lodge. The Dodge's are very kind and fantasticto work with. The views from the lake house are beyond what i could describe here. Be sure to wake well before sunrise and sit by the lake to watch thesun come up. If you're lucky you'll get to hear the loons call. The cottage is just under one hour from Acadia. We made the trip daily and it is actually a nice time to reflect, especially if you spent the day hiking or biking. If you plan to go to caddilac mountain get your reservation early. For hiking Acadia see the visitor center to register, (bring your mask, they don't mess around). We also took a boat tour, $38 each and more great views, we saw deals, porpoise and even three bald eagles. I could go on and on. Such a great stay.

Paul was a conscientious host and the cabin was lovely. Molasses Pond is beautiful.
