Cabin by the Lake

1 site · Lodging1 acre · Mapleton, ME

This cozy cabin isn’t a fancy ‘lake house’. That said, there are lots of wonderful things to love about this special place. Situated on beautiful Scopan Lake in northern Maine, it’s a peaceful place to disconnect and unwind. Accessible through all four seasons, enjoy ice fishing or snowmobiling in the winter, leaf peeping in the fall, or swimming, fishing, boating (bring your own boat or paddle board), or ATV or bike riding in the summer. There are public picnic tables, docks and a boat launch available for camp owners and renters along the lake. Haystack Mountain is located at the mouth of the camp road; just a quick hike will bring you to breathtaking views of Aroostook County. You can access the snowmobile trail and the ATV trail directly from the property. The camp is located on a dirt ‘camp road’, about four miles from the main road (Rt. 163), so you can enjoy the sounds of nature, uninterrupted by constant traffic. If you’re lucky you might spot a moose meandering around, or a Bald Eagle or Blue Heron looking for a snack in the lake. The cabin is equipped with electricity, propane heat that heats the camp up nicely, a propane kitchen stove, refrigerator, and pots/pans/dishes/utensils. There is one queen size bed and two twin bunk beds. It is stocked with decks of cards, board games, and coloring books and crayons. There is also a TV and DVD player with a selection of movies available. It does not have indoor plumbing, but it does have a well-maintained, recently updated outhouse.
