1 Bedroom Cottage in Caratunk

Beautiful Riverside cottage, private, remote, semi-secluded. Located on the Kennebec river. A roomy one room cottage and enclosed porch with a view of the river and the Appalachian Trail crossing. Surrounded by woods and bordered by a crystal clear stream. If you're into the outdoors this is the place for you. Hiking, biking, fishing, rafting right outside your door.
The main cabin has a queen size bed, the enclosed porch has one double bed and one single bed. During the day, the porch is a great place to relax, read a book, or just take in the river view. A roomy kitchen, with everything you could need. The full bath is also stocked with towels, soap, shampoo, etc. and has a stackable washer and dryer for your use. You will also have free use of the River/lake, lawn/beach area, fire pit, gazebo with double hammock, kayaks, canoe and propane grill.
We are in the middle of an outdoor enthusiast's paradise. Next to the applachian trail, we have tons of day hikes close by, mountain tops, views, or waterfalls whatever you're looking for. Whitewater rafting is the big summer industry here, there are several outfitters located within 5 miles of our place. Several restaurants and a brew pub are close by. You can fish right out the front door, either in the lake, the river or in the stream that borders the property. There are biking and walking trails as well. We are glad to offer suggestions, or even show you around.
We are next door on the property and happy to answer any questions or help with concerns. We love to meet new people and socialize but will respect your space and privacy.
