23 Dolman - Amalaran - 360 'de façade sur Dodge Pond

This was the perfect cabin for our family vacation to Rangeley! We had plenty of room to spread out, and having two full bathrooms was incredibly helpful! I know that can be difficult to find with some cabins, but we needed it and very much appreciated it.Although some may call the interior dated, we appreciated the true cabin feel, and enjoyed reading about all the history attached to the decorations. And you can't beat the beautiful, modern kitchen!We spent the majority of our time down by the dock, though. Every day we were swimming, fishing, and taking the canoes out around the pond for a leisurely paddle or to try to catch a big one. We didn't have any issues with it, but be aware if you're coming with older adults or anyone with mobility issues that the hill down to the firepit and water is decently steep. In terms of activities outside the cabin, it's perfectly placed between Rangeley and Oquossoc. We enjoyed breakfast at the Oquossoc Grocery several mornings, and delicious dinners and ice cream in Rangeley. This is a well-suited cabin for families with so much to do if you can bear to leave the beauty of Dodge Pond.

This home is well loved by the owners. Sweet touches and a note of history of the property and family background. The indoor fireplace is epic!! We felt like we were welcomed guests in a well stocked home with games, books and every appliance you would need in the kitchen to make amazing comfort food. All we needed was to bring some clothes and food, everything else was provided. The deck view of the lake was the perfect way to open and close the day. Secluded, hiking trails nearby, everything I'd hoped for. The only reason I did not give 5 stars was because some touch ups do need to be made which the owners addressed up front but nothing off-putting. It was perfect for what we were looking for.

Had a wonderful week! The home was well outfitted with lots of cookware/kitchen items. Loved the firepit/dock area! Only negative comment was we were in town during a hot spell and could have used a few more fans.

I would happily stay there again.

We were seeing great weather shaping up in Rangeley for Labor Day weekend, so we emailed M&F with a week's notice to request a quiet and private waterfront rental for my wife and our pet... and yet again, they did not disappoint. They responded back with a few options and 23 Dolman was the one we selected. We had a fantastic time there! Having only rented on Rangeley Lake and Mooselook in the past, we were very happy with Dodge Pond. It's big enough for boats and personal watercraft but camps are spread out and the water was always calm even when the wind picked up. The property is as-described and photographed. The three levels and multiple bedrooms would make it great for a big family to stay and was more than enough space for us. The wrap-around deck was amazing to grill on, lounge on and enjoy the pond view. The property has a somewhat steep grade to the pond's edge but was only about 50 yards from the house, so it wasn't too difficult, just need to watch your footing on damp grass. The shore has both a sturdy dock and a nice walk out area to swim. If you want privacy, this is the place. The property is very large and we could not see (and could barely hear) activity at the camps on either side of us. The opposite shore has camps but they are far enough away that you felt secluded from them as well. We were perfectly situated halfway between Rangeley and Oquossoc, so you were less than 10 minutes from both. It didn't matter though as we felt no need to leave the property... just hung out on the deck and the dock. It is obvious that the owners of the home take very good care of the place and instructions by them and M&F were very clear on how to operate it. The owners also left a wonderful list of things to do and guided us on what we could invite ourselves to do and use in the home. It was a really nice touch and made us feel welcomed. The renovated kitchen was fantastic and they had everything a cook would need. The oversized fireplace made us kinda wish it was cold enough for a fire! They have a huge woodshed where there was plenty of seasoned logs for a campfire in the outdoor fire pit. If there's any drawbacks to the home, the windows and doors are on the older side, so opening and closing them was sometimes a challenge. Also, you are relatively close to Route 4/16, so while the hum of road noise is audible from the outdoors, we did not hear it inside the house. But the proximity to the towns made it worth it. Bottom line... we had an amazing time at 23 Dolman and while we only had a long weekend to enjoy it, we will definitely consider coming back for our 1 and 2 week summer stays if it's available... we can't wait to come back!
