a nature refuge extraordinaire

Donna welcomed us to her lake cabin with incredible care and hospitality, then left us to enjoy its many wonders in perfect peace. This is truly a magical place. We swam, paddled, and enjoyed long afternoons on the screened porch hearing nothing but the wind and the loons. At one point, we'd seen more moose than people! We have seldom come back from a vacation as fully restored.

Privacy and peace in the wilderness in the comfort of home

Beautifully maintained and appointed family retreat for an exclusive experience of the Maine woods. The location on Lake Rockabema makes you feel that the lake is yours. This is a unique and exceptional accommodation for Northern Maine. In every way our expectations were met.

Beautiful and Serene

Wonderfully quiet and peaceful vacation. Cabin is fantastic and the lake is gorgeous. Spent some quality family time away from the hustle and bustle of the world. Communication with Donna was first rate and Darrell was especially helpful and available 24/7. Enjoyed the Kayaks and the fishing boat immensely. We had a wonderful time and would return again.

Truly Superb

We had the most amazing time. The pictures do not do the camp justice. Everything was perfect and the owner had thought of everything to make our stay incredible.

About the host

Hosted by Donna Roggenthien

I live mostly in Portland, but spend considerable time in Friendship Maine, and up in The County. I own and manage various types of property thru out the State of Maine. Formerly in the hospitality industry, I strive to make sure the needs of all our guests are anticipated and taken care of, and to provide a peaceful place to get away from it all.

Why they chose this property

The quiet and peace on the lake are unrivaled.

What makes this property unique

Total peace and quiet....solitude.
Having solar panels to provide on demand power, while being so far off the grid is a wonderful bonus. Boats, kayaks etc all provided so you can explore the lake. Completely and well outfitted cabin.
All comforts thoughts of.
