Monthly Rentals in Craig Pond

Beautiful home and surroundings. Casey and his family were very accommodating and super friendly host. Definitely recommend this home to anyone staying around this area.

Dave and Flora’s little cottage in Orland is ideal for anyone looking to get to Acadia, the nearby hikes in Orland, Castine, Bucksport, and/or Brooksville, and even hiking that’s further north. We stayed the weekend of 10/18 and the foliage was still gorgeous! Though we lived in ME previously, Dave and Flora still sent us copious recommendations for hiking/restaurants around the area, several of which we checked out during our stay. (: The cottage was pristine and the decor truly was “rustic elegance,” as Flora describes. It is just the right size for a short stay, but has everything one needs to be comfortable. There’s even an oven/microwave for those who wish to do their own cooking. The ‘greenhouse’ sitting area was so peaceful for having coffee in the morning or to start a small tabletop fire in the evening (per Dave’s recommendation). Don’t even get me started on how delicious Flora’s fresh, warm blueberry muffins were on our first morning! Thank you Dave and Flora!

We had a wonderful stay in the cottage and luckily we also had great weather for April. It was really easy to get to and from Acadia and Bar Harbor. When we had a minor problem Jean-Yves dealt with it in a friendly and efficient manner. We would definitely return if we found ourselves back in the area.

We enjoyed our first day with beautiful views overlooking the Orland River. Period we spent pleasurable mornings and evenings on the deck between the river and the peak autumn foliage. The cottage has a well-stocked kitchen; the beds were comfortable and the ambiance was cozy and rustic. It is within an hour drive to Acadia, or Belfast. Lots to do, especially if you’re a nature lover. Another plus was how friendly, responsive, and proactive Matthew was. It was a pleasure having him as our host. Hope to come again.
