Cabane rurale du Maine près du lac Flagstaff, réserve Bigelow et Sugarloaf

Highland Hideaway

Tucked away in the peaceful Western Maine Woods, this private, year-round retreat offers cozy accommodations and a welcoming atmosphere. The secluded area is especially popular for hiking, hunting, and snowmobiling.

This cozy cabin is ideal for two guests, but can sleep up to four and includes heating and air conditioning for year-round comfort. Set behind the main property, it has a private yard, driveway, and campfire ring. A sturdy metal roof covers the deck, allowing you to grill and cook outdoors in nearly any weather. The screenhouse provides a bug-free place to relax and dine, while enjoying the forest and the soothing sounds of nearby crystal-clear streams.

Popular things to do here: Spring/Summer/ Fall: hiking, mountain/fat biking, bird watching, kayaking, fishing, leaf peeping, hunting. Winter: snowmobiling, skiing/snowboarding Sugarloaf, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing and ice fishing.

Hikers and Bikers: We are a short distance from East side of Bigelow Preserve, Appalachia Trail, Flagstaff Hut and the East side of Flagstaff Lake. It is a 12-mile drive north from the cabin to the Flagstaff Trailhead.

Skiers and snowboarders: Sugarloaf Mountain is a scenic 45-minute drive from this location.

Snowmobilers: There are 63 miles of snowmobile trails around us. Trail access along this road as well as full access, parking and fuel at the local snowmobile club. Before booking, we recommend checking with local clubs for current trail access, locations, and conditions.

The road to the property runs parallel to scenic Route 201 (Old Canada Road) and Route 27, which passes through Carrabassett Valley, Sugarloaf Mountain, and the west side of Flagstaff Lake. Our road is paved, plowed as necessary and open during the winter months. GPS may be a little confusing when looking at the area roads: many of the gravel roads off this road are only accessible by snowmobile during the winter months, and most comfortably navigated by AWD and 4WD when they are accessible. For those familiar with the area, Carriage Road is no longer accessible.

The outdoor cooking area includes a gas grill, four-burner gas cook top, large toaster oven, large electric skillet and a large patio cooler. The picnic table is just off the deck. The kitchenette inside has a refrigerator, Keurig and 12 cup coffee makers, microwave, crockpot, toaster oven, dishes, cutlery, kitchen utensils and tools, mixing bowls and pans. Bring your food & beverages.
We provide bed linens, pillows, blankets and towels. The adult-size bunk has a lower bunk that sleeps two people with a child-size upper bunk, and another twin bunk across the room. There is a multiple device charging port for your devices, WIFI TV, DVD player, movies and an Echo Dot and a CD player for tunes. The cabin has an electric fireplace for additional warmth and ambiance. There is a full bathroom with a shower. The screenhouse offers outdoor seating for 4. We provide some firewood for the campfire and always appreciate it when folks bring some Maine firewood with them. We do not offer laundry service, but there are laundromats in the two nearby towns.

Due to the size of the cabin and available resources, we are unable to host more than four guests at a time. Please ensure your group does not exceed four people, as we are unable to accommodate larger parties. Thank you for your understanding.
