Come enjoy the wilderness, beauty and solace of the most northern part of Maine at our camp "Ursa Minor" Minutes from the Canadian border in Grand Isle, this remote and secluded off-grid comfortable cabin on just under 200 private acres of northern Maine wilderness has beautiful scenic mountain views. It is located along the extensive ATV road system and is completely ATV accessible. It is at the end of a 4 mile gravel road ( which can be rough at times). There is a brook on the property and maintained walking trails. During berry season there are unlimited amounts of berries to pick. This is a sanctuary for wildlife so while pets are allowed, prior permission is needed for the protection of the wildlife that lives here. Off leash pets are at your own risk and please pick up after pets when able. We share the property with moose, bear, deer, fisher cats, coyote, lynx and bobcats. We take the welfare of the wildlife on our property seriously and there is absolutely no hunting or baiting allowed. The cabin is outfitted with solar electricity which is limited but can provide lights, outlets and charging for devices There is propane heat in the camp and a portable outdoor stove camping stove top. Absolutely no candles or smoking in the cabin and all outdoor fires should be limited to the fire pit and fully extinguished after use. There is no wifi at the cabin but most people have good cell signal. There are trail cameras on the property.Ursa Minor is the only rentable site on the property. Enjoy the seclusion and quiet with beautiful mountain views from your door. It is truly a special place. Guests will enjoy almost 200 acres to themselves complete with maintained trails and a brook within a few minutes walking distance. There is plenty of parking around the cabin. There is another cabin on the property but it will be vacant during your stay. There is a pull out queen futon that sleeps 2 and a roll out queen floor mattress that also sleeps 2. Please bring your own linens and pillows. The camp is completely off grid and 4 miles to the nearest main road with services. The road leading to the camp can be rough and is gravel. The ATV ITS system is accessible directly from the property. We ask if you are driving ATV's on the property itself that you stay on the paths. Pets allowed with permission and may be off leash at your own risk. Please clean up after them, thank you. No smoking/candles inside the camp. Any smoking must be put out and discarded to avoid fires. No camping fires outside of the designated fire pit area provided. There is a self bagging toilet system that requires refill cartridges.
