Unwind and enjoy a true cedar log cabin experience. Nestled in the trees and set back from the road, this cabin is the ultimate relaxing getaway. Relax on the covered front porch with your morning coffee or evening cocktail, gather around the fire pit, and relax to the sounds of a crackling fire and the nature around you. But, don't forget to look up, the stars are the true show-stopper. Enjoy a short walk to the top of the hill and enjoy the spectacular views! To the west, you will see Mount Washington, turn slightly to the north-west, and see the million-dollar views of the Appalachian Mountains any time of the year!! Truly a breathtaking sight. And at night, be sure to view the stars from the top of the hill!
Located in the quaint wooded town of Norway, Maine, let our log cabin immerse you in nature, fresh mountain air, and ultimate relaxation! Come enjoy our pristine lakes, endless hiking trails, vibrant downtown, and the ever-changing seasons of Maine. Come explore all that Maine has to offer in the Western Maine region.
Inside the cabin, enjoy all of the true cedar log cabin. Elements include exposed spruce tie beams, white cedar trim, walls, and cathedral ceilings. A true testament to the true craftsmanship of a Ward Cedar Home. You'll also enjoy a fully stocked kitchen and cozy dining area, along with a spacious living area. Take the ladder to the loft where you'll find two twin beds. The master bedroom is located on the first floor. The lower level offers a separate private area with a 3rd bedroom, laundry and a half bath. Perfect if you have 2 families traveling together or in-laws that would like a separate, private space. -
