Birches

The Birches is an amazing cabin that is perfect for family time. This was our first time staying in Rangeley and we had a wonderful experience. The cabin was clean, roomy, inviting, and the fireplace was everything! You need nothing when staying at The Birches except food and clothes - everything else is provided. Our family will definitely be back next year. Thank you for some great family memories.

Morton & Furbish Vacation Rentals response: We are so happy to hear that you and your family had an amazing time in Rangeley! We can't wait to see you again next year!!

We recently stayed at this property for several nights and overall had a really good experience. The place was clean, well-maintained, and matched the description accurately. The kitchen was stocked with the essentials and we had plenty of room to relax by the fire. A very pleasant stay!

Morton & Furbish Vacation Rentals Response: Thank you so much for the kind review—we’re so glad to hear you had a pleasant stay and enjoyed the space! We would love to host you again soon :)

Morton & Furbish Vacation Rentals Response: We are so glad the house worked out well as a base for your snowmobiling adventures! We would love to host you again soon!

This house is incredibly clean and comfortable. The location of being on a very private lake (waterfront!) and also being close to town is amazing. M&F are always so helpful and accommodating. My only advise to people visiting is that there are not adequate curtains in the bedrooms so bring black plastic trash bags and painter's tape (to avoid damaging the walls) if you need the little ones to sleep in :) We will come back to the Birches year after year.

The birches is one of the best rentals that we've ever stayed at. It's so clean and comfortable and the location cannot be beat. You feel like you have the lake to yourselves yet you're only 10 min from town. I can't wait to go back!

Been returning to this property for many years. Beautifully maintained home with expansive kitchen and open floor plan. All the amenities you need in a kitchen and for comfort. Quiet, secluded. Spacious. Sleeps 8 comfortably.

The kitchen is very well stocked! So much to do- games galore!

We loved the Birches. Spacious log cabin great for families, well appointed kitchen, nice wood burning fireplace with wood on site for renters! Loft with kids games and a cozy finished basement which they enjoyed having space away from the adults. Steps to Loon Lake with easy snowmobile access to and from the trail system. The access road and driveway to the property was tight and the plowing could have been better for parking, a heads up if bringing more than 2 vehicles in the winter. We would highly recommend this camp to other renters!

A lovely home, well-maintained, clean, and perfect for a large gathering. The dining room table seats 12!

Birches was exactly what we were hoping it would be, based on the photos and guidance from Morton & Furbish. Clean, quiet, private, lovely furnishings, decent (but quite firm!) beds, gloriously equipped kitchen, plenty of comfy seating. We definitely would recommend it, and hope to return some day.

We had a wonderful time celebrating our first wedding anniversary here! Thank you for a beautiful and peaceful stay :)

Cleanest we've ever rented anywhere!

A gorgeous, spacious, home on Loon Lake. Loon Lake is peaceful, beautiful and pristine. The property is private with a nice dock. The house has a fabulous kitchen as part of an open floor plan. It is well-equipped and maintained. Four bedrooms and three full baths allow for eight people plenty of room. This is well-worth the money.

Property listing was accurate. Home was very clean and M&F was very responsive :)

Nothing but great things to say! Awesome location and great amenities. A+

The Birches is a beautiful log home with all of the amenities a modern family needs. It is also very private and on the edge of a large wilderness area. For those who love nature, but also prefer many of the creature comforts. We have returned to the Birches several times and highly recommend it for a perfect family vacation.

The property was amazing - the firewood, the hummingbird feeders filled, the kitchen with everything you could possibly need - it was perfect!

Peaceful, serene, tranquil, everything we wanted in a vacation. The house was immaculate and comfortable, the kitchen was great. We rented kayaks and bikes and enjoyed the lake, and the trails. We saw moose, loons, hares, squirrels, chipmunks and lots of hummingbirds. My favorite thing was just sitting on the covered porch, listening to and watching the loons and the hummingbirds.

My family has enjoyed many a stay at Birches through the years. Both summer vacations and ski weekends. For us, it has been a terrific rental. Some of the reasons why: beautiful Loon lake (great swimming, quiet, private, wonderful nature), lovely home with plenty of room, and a well appointed kitchen. There are trails for biking, hiking and walking. And, well, the loons of course - they are quite something. Morton and Furbish provided excellent service particularly during a time of global pandemic. We would fully recommend this property.

A wonderful place for the whole family. The kitchen is very impressive!

Our first trip to Rangeley Lakes area. Birches is a private beautiful home on Loon Lake. The house is appointed very well and immaculate . The upscale kitchen has EVERYTHING you could ever need, this was a plus as we enjoy cooking. There was plenty of wood for the fire pit at night. We brought our canoe and kayaks which were easy to put in at the dock. Our group of 7 adults were very comfortable at Birches. We feel it is important to point out that the only grill is a small Weber coal grill. We prefer charcoal grill so this was fine, however it could have been a bit bigger. Also our biggest disappointment was the mattresses in ALL rooms were so hard and uncomfortable. Our son slept on the couch 2 nights and our daughter contemplated doing the same. This was surprising due the the fact that the home is so nicely appointed in all other aspects. For this reason we sadly would not return to Birches. We would have given 5 stars otherwise.

OWNER RESPONSE We appreciate all your kind words about the Birches. We will be purchasing new mattresses for all the beds as well as suppling a larger charcoal grill. Thank you for your feedback.

We had a great weekend in Rangeley and will definitely be booking a trip next winter. Hoping the snow conditions are a little better, but all in all a great trip! Thanks.

Property is very nice and well maintained. Listing says "brand new" property but it appears to be 7-8 years old. Gas grill and a second TV would be a good add. Internet OK but drops off frequently. I don't go on vacation for the internet but unfortunately I have to stay connected. Gas fireplace in the basement did not work. Access to the lake (row boat) would be a nice added activity. Overall a nice rental.

Guy - Posted: 9/15/2015

Yes this rental is excellent i would stay anytime that I am in the area.

For starters, the house is a few years old, and of great design and construction. The lot is very private, with plenty of wildfife, including a cow moose and calf. We rent a lot through Morton-Furbish, who run a smooth operation. We prefer the larger lakes over Loon Lake, since the swimming and boating are limited here; however, this house makes up for it.
