Description
Early risers will rejoice in greeting the sun over an hour earlier than the western edge of the time zone. Eastern Sunrise Cabin resides in the very easternmost county in the country. Mornings here offer a truly special solitude. This cozy, rustic cabin has 250 feet of private waterfront on pristine Six Mile Lake, approximately 8 miles from the ocean. Six Mile Lake is so named because it is approximately six miles from the nearest major town of Machias, population 2,500. This is a secluded spot with no visible neighbors, 10 minutes by car from the town of Machias. Enjoy watching the loons, paddling in our canoe, fishing, and excellent, weed-free swimming, and nightly campfires. An excellent base camp for guests to explore the area. Nearby hiking, canoeing and kayaking, and mountain biking offer spectacular views of Maine’s “Bold Coast.”
Dogs of any size or type are welcome at the cabin and have plenty of space to safely roam off-leash. Dogs that like to swim really love this property, and owners can relax as long as their dogs are unlikely to wander off. (No large or otherwise problematic mammals have been seen on this property – just red squirrels and chipmunks.)
Open April through November
