we loved our second stay at carefree point! the private beach is a great place to read, sun, or meditate. the lake water is super clear, with a sandy bottom so now plant life to deal with. lovely cabin. close enough to town, but far enough that you feel secluded. THANK YOU!!

I have been coming to Maine on vacation for years and I have to say carefree point is the best place I ever stayed . It is perfect ! Exceeded our expectations . Definitely will book here again in future . Thank you to the kind and welcoming owners who let us in a little early and sharing this spectacular property with us a few days ago. Blessings to you all .

It’s a cabin, it provided all for all of our essential needs. We had difficulty finding the property in the dark, perhaps a house number that is more reflective would help. The lock timed out every time we attempted to enter the code, causing us to call the helpline. We will recommend this place to anyone wanting a basic no frills comfortable place in a beautiful location.

We loved this cabin - we felt safe and secure. The water pressure leaves a bit to be desired, but it was so quiet and very friendly for 4 adults traveling together. Kitchen was stocked with appliances/plates/silverware so it was so nice when we forgot stuff from home. It was easy to check in and out, and the proximity to the lake was AMAZING! We loved going out in the kayaks, spending time by the fire, and listening to the loons. We also loved looking through the guest book that dates back DECADES, we loved the little "easter eggs" about frogs and broken wheelbarrows on the property too that referenced the guest book. All around amazing stay, definitely a memorable one and if we're ever in Maine again we will consider staying here!

This little house tucked away in the back roads of Maine is pure magic. My pups absolutely adored on demand swimming and watching the frogs. My husband loved the grill and I loved being in nature and disconnecting. It was an easy drive to Acadia and Bar Harbor.
