My beloved "Cabin in the Woods" (pic8.co)

Located in the Western Maine Mountains. Cedar pole roof frame with 2x4 walls, shiplap and battens.

Built by Dad and me in the fall of 1977. 4 seasons of fun here!

Sleeps up to 8.

Overlooks a small brook trout filled pond (on the right) at the base of a tall mountain. The stream exiting the pond travels behind the camp along the back property line. We used the stationary part of a duo-pane sliding glass door mounted sideways as a picture window facing the pond and mountain.

No electricity. Refrigeration by an old 1940s Servel gas powered refrigerator. Gas lights, gas cook stove. Woodstove for heat. Uninsulated. One seater Outhouse to the left just out of picture view.

Oh, the stories I could tell...

Moose are usually pretty laid back. We park our vehicles (trucks, atvs, or snowmobiles) in the driveway (about where I was standing when shooting this picture). One night I went out to use the outhouse, there was a bull moose standing between the camp and the closest truck in the driveway, about 20ft away! Surprised the shit out of me and him! He just sauntered off towards the pond, no hurry. They love wallowing in the pond.
