Great house, great location
Such a cute, quaint log cabin home with amazing views of Rangeley lake and Saddleback directly across the lake. This house accommodated our group of 6 adults and 2 children perfectly. Contains all the expected amenities and charming cabin decor. Would recommend and would stay in again! Thanks for having us

Morton & Furbish Vacation Rentals response: Thank you so much for staying with us! We're so happy to hear that you had an amazing time!! We'd love to have you back in Rangeley soon :)

A week in Rangeley
We had a great time in Rangeley, rented a boat and went out every day. Unlike Sebago Rangeley is not over crowded, Even on the weekends. The restaurant business is still struggling with help. We could not find a place to go out to dinner on Monday night, but we had a great dinner on Sunday night at the Loon Lodge. The cabin was very comfortable, and clean. Beautiful views from the wrap around deck, Watched the stars at night and the sunrise in the morning. Making reservations for next year.

McDonnell was the best fit for my family and we had an incredible week. Clean and updated, well groomed lawn, our favorite to date, also close to town . I will definitely rent again.

All Good
Very nice cabin with accommodating owners. We try and rent this every winter for a company snowmobiling trip (5 Guys - Everybody has their own bed). We are water front with a wood stove on a snowmobile path. In short - All good.

Hi, My wife and I. Thank the Mcdonells for the opportunity to rent their cabin again. We tried to leave it as we found it. I hope everything was O.K. As usual it was a fantastic week with great weather. It rained Wednesday, and their was a leak in the roof to the right of the chimney. It might be in the chimney flashing. We cleaned it up and moved the lg rocker. It was still a great week. My son and daughter in law stopped in one night. My daughter stopped in another night. We had another son and daughter with sites at the State Park and they rented a pontoon boat and came over to jump off the dock. This cabin is a great location to all facilities in Oquossic and Rangeley, ie: hiking, fishing, blueberry picking, swimming, boating, and restaurants. I want to rent it again ,but I have a heart valve operation due next Thursday. If all goes well I will call the Realtor. I especially enjoyed sitting on the deck and enjoyed all the action of visitors. We didn't use the canoe or kayak because we couldn't find a paddle, not a problem! Again, thanks, enjoy the rest of the year on a great location. Sincerely, Stan Kaminski

Delightful getaway
Quiet retreat for holiday weekend in the fall. Walking trails and golf course nearby but not too far from downtown Rangeley.
