Peaceful Home
I really enjoyed the house on Green Lake Very Relaxing and Peaceful Listening to the loons and the water lap onto the shore I loved waking up to the view of the lake Seeing the sun go down in the evening Using the outside fire pit both during the day and night Spacious home I brought my dog and cat The dog enjoyed the back yard and wading in the lake. Also plenty of road to take walks. We easily found hiking trails both nearby and within 30 or 40 minutes My cat loved to sit on the enclosed back porch and look outside There are 2 TV’s One you can watch while in kitchen the other in the living room with a gas fireplace I had my family over for a few meals there is a nice big table on the porch My niece nephew and great nephew spent a night Me great nephew loved the bunk bed and enjoyed climbing up to the loft There are kayaks to use on the beautiful lake Really just enjoying reading sitting by the lake was great. This trip was a retirement gift to myself Seeing family and attending a wedding Overall great stay for me. But I can also see how this would be a great place for a family or friend adventure

Relaxing getaway!
We had a great time at the Dunn Inn. The house was great with lots of room for all 8 of us and our dog. We loved kayaking and swimming in the lake. The water is so clean and refreshing. We loved hearing the loons and sitting out by the fire pit. We took day trips to Acadia and Bar Harbor, which are pretty close. Thank you, Scott, for sharing your house, we had a wonderful time!

Fun and peaceful
We had such a good time swimming, kayaking and relaxing in this beautiful spot. My wife and I felt like kids again and we got to enjoy some genuine quality time with our kids making memories on the lake. We are so happy with our decision to stay at the Dunn Inn.

The Maine Experience
We had a great time at Scott's Cabin. Plenty of space for the kids to spread out and have their own sleeping areas. My son loved the loft! The grassy area out front was great and we used it for a large family get together with lobsters and such. We rented a boat and it was easy to dock and took it fishing as well. The kids enjoyed the float and kayaks that were available. My wife enjoyed the bedroom with the AC. We plan to return next summer!

Idyllic Lakeside Cabin
My family of all adults over 18 had a fantastic stay at Scott’s cabin. We had a full house and there was plenty of room for all of us. Even just one bathroom worked out fine. There was lots of open cabinets in the kitchen to store our weeks worth of food. And we prepared all our meals in the cabin. They had all we needed for pots and pans and utensils. The spot is like a slice of heaven. Very quiet and peaceful and the water was very refreshing. We also found plenty to do in the area when it rained and we would definitely come back. The place was neat and clean and even though it is still a campy feeling it met all our needs. Scott was very responsive to all questions and I would highly recommend it.

Our family vacation
This camp rental on Green Lake was absolutely perfect! Our family enjoyed everything and was able to fully relax and recharge. The only thing I would change is the mattress in the bedroom overlooking the lake (where my husband and I slept) was very hard. This is the only flaw to this perfect camp vacation!

Slice of Heaven
This property is all it is advertised. Beautiful lake, great spot and many amenities. The kitchen is very well equipped. We had great weather, there was almost always a breeze each day and the lawn area is fabulous. The layout of the house works well for a group, the enclosed porch and deck were perfect for our needs. I would go back anytime! Communication with Scott was easy and timely.

Cabin on a remote lake
This is an older cabin right on a lake. There are 3 downstairs bedrooms and 1 bathroom and a loft bed. The highlight is that the cabin is right above the lake with a screened in porch and kayaks you can borrow. The dishwasher, washer and dryer work well. It takes about 20 minutes to drive to the nearest town and almost 1 hour to reach Arcadia National Park/Bar Harbor. The internet is slow and can't handle more than 1 user at a time. There are stairs to get down to the lawn and to enter the water, so doable for someone with a walker but not handicap accessible. Quiet, peaceful, older cabin.

Peaceful camp
The Dunn Inn was just what my family needed! The dock, the views, the location and quaintness and everything in between was perfect! We spent every evening on the dock and enjoying kayaking. If you have a family who enjoy being outside and away from the rest of the world, this is the place for you!

Wonderful birthday vacation
We had a wonderful time at this lakeside cabin. My cat Minnie was able to come and enjoyed looking out the window at the wildlife. While borrowing the kayaks (that are kept just a few feet away from the water) we even saw nesting Loons. The cabin has some skylights that sound wonderful in the rain. The gas fireplace also gave a very cozy feeling. It was a wonderful stay!

Green Lake Family Retreat
The Dunn Inn on Green Lake is an excellent location for swimming, kayaking, fishing, canoeing, tubing and simply enjoying the beauty of Green Lake. The dock is both adequate for mooring boats as well as diving into the water to swim. There is a nearby floating dock that also adds to the fun. Inside the camp, there is adequate space for at least four groups of people to have their own room. The loft upstairs should be used for the smallest guests as it is cozy and a little tight. The loons are nearby all the time and offer beautiful singing at night. The sunsets are spectacular. Green Lake is big and diverse enough that there are several marshy areas that are perfect for exploring the local aquatic wildlife and fauna. If there is something you need boating-wise, Mr Jenkins and Jenkins Beach is very helpful and friendly. We rented additional boats from him. Also, fresh lobsters are 15 min away in Ellsworth, along with groceries and Dunkin. Acadia is a 1/2 hour - hour drive from the location as well. Check your traffic before you go and leave early in the day. At the camp, the hot water and gas worked fine for all appliances. We ate every meal on the porch or on picnic tables right next to the water. There is only one bathroom so there is some coordination needed for large groups on showers. We found the owner Scott to be very accessible and helpful if we had any questions. We have more we would like to do at Green Lake and are considering going back again.

Great Location
An amazing location, warm, inviting, and family friendly. We had a wonderful time, got to go kayaking saw my first loons with their babies, a bald eagle, and just loved the area in general. The lake is amazing, nice sandy bottom, no lake smell, stunning sunsets, and stars like I haven't seen since I was a child, bringing my telescope next time. The proximity to Acadia and Bar Harbor is fabulous, my only real complaint is one week is not enough to see all the amazing things.

Nice House in a Great Location
This is a spacious, well-maintained lakeside home. We found everything to be just as described in the vrbo listing, or better. The owners are thoughtful and welcoming, making it clear through an abundance of small touches that they want renters to enjoy the property. The location is excellent, on a residential lake with private water access (and four kayaks -- three singles and a tandem). The house is clean and comfortable, with a lot of comfortable furniture, and includes all essential household supplies (dishes, cups, glasses, flatware, paper towels, etc.) and all major appliances -- refrigerator, dishwasher, washer/dryer, garbage compactor, oven/stovetop, microwave, toaster, Keurig, etc. At night, one hears various insects, frogs, and loons. Highly recommended.

Great find!
We came across this listing looking for a place near Acadia National Park. It was perfect for us! The kids loved jumping in the lake. We enjoyed sitting by the lake watching them. The owner was very helpful and accommodating. Neighbors are friendly and welcoming. We would definitely stay here again!!
