Was a nice property and I would recommend it to anyone looking to get away.

This was a beautiful property. We really enjoyed ourselves and it felt like we were at home. We plan on visiting my nephew in Maine every year or every other year and we will ALWAYS stay at Serenity. John was an awesome host and is very proud of his home and treats everyone like family.

We had a great time visiting Acadia National Park and then road-tripping north along the Maine coast and doing our own lobster bake as well. Great location with absolutely splendid sunrises.

This property is nestled on a lake Perfect peace and quiet I cannot say enough good things about the property owner. He made our stay most pleasant, noting every thing needed It is a good place to retreat, sightsee and then retreat again.

Soul soothing location. 6:30am - you could have heard a pin drop from across the lake - only the call of a single loon swimming across the lake could be heard - magical! So nice to retreat from the hustle and bustle of Acadia during the day to this oasis .

Serenity is just that. It was perfect. Away from the crowds but still close enough to enjoy the park.

Our family had an amazing experience staying at Serenity! The environment is truly serene, but there is plenty of wildlife to see and fun to be had with 3 kayaks and many floats to enjoy the peace of Abrams Pond. The owners, John and Kate, provided just about everything we needed to have a wonderful family vacation!

We all enjoyed our week at serenity. We had grandparents and kids along and everyone had a good time on the lake kayaking and fishing. We also took short day trips to Acadia. Since the kids are still young yet their hiking max is about 2 miles. Would definitely stay here again. What you see in listing is exactly what you get. Property was very clean!

Great communication with John. This was the perfect spacious Maine cabin secluded away from the maddening crowd. It was well stocked with water toys, games, kids and grownup books, local travel information. It is a ways to drive into Bar Harbor and Acadia but a beautiful drive. The sunsets and sunrises couldn’t have been more glorious over the lake.

Great place, beautiful piece of property. Close to Acadia which is where we spent a day. Kitchen well stocked, everything we needed.

Great spot. Quiet and peaceful away from the hustle and bustle. Enjoyed sitting by the water at the firepit. Serenity is the perfect name. Enjoyed our stay.

This property was everything it was described as and much more. Great views and a great place to base out of while we explored Maine. Would stay again if we come back to this area.

Serenity felt like a home away from home. John gave great directions and was very communacative!

We really enjoyed how well-stocked the house was with books, puzzles, games, kitchen supplies, and paper goods. Our 14 year old played with all the little animal toys and loved Maine-opoly. The setting was gorgeous- Abrams Pond was lovely at sunrise. We enjoyed kayaking around the quiet lake in the morning. The fireplace and tons of blankets were a plus in October! Mr. Pepe was a conscientious host and easily reached via email with questions. Future guests should know that there is no cell signal in the cottage, but good wifi. Also, the drive to Acadia was about 45 minutes - not a problem, but something to know! Overall, this house made our first trip to Maine a beautiful experience.

Love the peace and solitude of this secluded gem. Beautiful setting! A little off the grid but still close to shopping, restaurants and other services.

We feel like family when we stay at Serenity! Every detail has been considered; beautiful setting, private shore area, lots of games, movies, books and other things to make you feel comfortable! There is always some improvement made and the love and care put into this lake house is most obvious! Our family can't wait to return!

We had a wonderful week at Serenity. Everything was ready for us when we arrived. The house was the perfect size for our family of 7. There was plenty for us to do but spend most of our time on the kayaks and fishing off the dock.

J. Has been great to us renting the house over the last 8 years. We love the remote location and proximity to Bar Harbor. The weather this year was phenomenal! We saw bald eagles, herons and plenty of geese and ducks on the dock and from the deck. We are looking forward to next year!

We loved our stay at Serenity! The house was nice and cozy and had everything we needed. The location is absolutely perfect and serene! We cannot wait to return next year!

The cabin had everything for a great family trip and owner was very pleasant to deal with. We hope to go back! -Jordan from Texas

We enjoyed Serenity very much and found John's place to be very comfortable, had almost everything we needed. Great waterfront, safe for kids, terrific fishing, wonderful books, games, etc. Three generations had a blast and plan to travel there again. Thanks for everything! A memorable family vacation on a beautiful "pond"!
