Rustic Cabin Retreat on Rangeley Lake!

Overall the cabin served the purpose of lake access which slept us and our kids and their partners. The photos do not show the cabin that partially obstructs the view of the lake from this cabin. . While this is one of the Rangeley Lakeside Cabins, this one is set back from the lake as opposed to most of the others that are much closer. There is some noise from the main road into town and you cannot hear the lake itself from this cabin. Most of the others seemed to have chairs out front and their own firepit. There was only a picnic table outside of ours and no firepit. There did seem to be a communal fire pit down by the lake but we had to “steal” outdoor chairs from an unoccupied cabin’s porch so we could sit around it as it only had 2 chairs. The kitchen was newly built and really functional and the bathroom looked newly built as well. Generally things were clean but the sliders out to the porch overlooking the lake not only had fingerprints all over them but what looked like splashes of some sort of liquid on them so we cleaned them ourselves. And when one of us misplaced a shirt and looked under the bed, there was a lot of dust and a shirt and trash (a plastic bag) left by previous occupants. The host was responsive and we appreciated all the games and coffee filters and spices etc. Again, the cabin served its purpose but next time we may stay in a cabin closer to the lake and farther from the road as we have in previous years.

Albeit short, we had a wonderful time in Rangeley and Saddleback. The cabin was perfect. The views were amazing. The sauna was clutch on one of our coldest ski days. Lots of board games. Had everything we needed. Five minutes from grocery store and gas station! Fifteen minutes to Saddleback! The cherry on top was that I had left behind my iPad. The host and cleaning person were lifesavers in arranging a time and meeting place that was not too far from home so that I could retrieve the iPad. Wonderful experience all around. Hope to make it back soon!

Charming cottage with a clean, modern kitchen. Nice-sized common area, easy access, and great lake views!

We had a wonderful stay at the Snowshoe cabin. It was very cozy yet comfortable for our family of 6. An ice storm changed our ski plans and we were grateful for the great game collection that helped us pass the time. The cabin’s location is super convenient to both Saddleback and downtown Rangeley, and management was very welcoming and responsive.

We loved our stay at Snowshoe cabin! Geoff was an excellent host - very responsive and helpful with any questions. The cabin was clean and cozy, with all the amenities we needed. As a musical family, we really appreciated the guitar and record player! The heating unit is excellent and there were also lots of extra blankets to keep us warm on a chilly November weekend. This was the perfect spot to stay for a wedding at Mountain Star Estate which is directly across the street and walkable from the cabin. Overall an excellent experience all around. Thank you!
