My wife and I, along with our two children (ages 8 and 10), stayed for a week in mid-June at Three Moons. The cabin is simple, but had everything we could possibly have needed need. The dock is a great place to relax, hear loons and star gaze. The cabin was clean, and well maintained. The fire place was great on cool evenings. The only issue was that we were unable to connect the phone or internet. But, once the initial discomfort passed, this proved to be quite enjoyable! The map and list of favorite activities in the cabin were great! We enjoyed kayaking on Long Pond, hiking on both the east and west side of the island, lobster dinners in town and biking on the carriage roads. Each day was filled with adventure and beauty. We’re already planning our return to MDI. Thanks for opening your cabin to us!
My wife and I spent a very enjoyable week at Three Moons. The dock and lakefront deck are what make it such a great camp. The dock is spacious and sturdy and we had two boats tied up to it — a sailboat and a canoe. The camp is at a nice windy spot on Long Pond. On a cool evening a fire in the brick fireplace is very cozy. There’s even easy hand-launching of boats from a sort of boat ramp. Potential tenants should note that the neighbors are very close and the interior is very simple. The bath is tiny with a small sink. The electric kitchen stove is older, and there are only basic kitchen utensils. For example, we found no mixing bowls for batters or salads. But, all in all, we thoroughly enjoyed our week in Three Moons!
