"Andy's Place"

A small year round Cottage on Beautiful Whetstone Pond with Majestic Russell Mountain emerging right from the shoreline across from you. Easy access to ATV and Snowmobile Trails. Great Summertime Fishing, sorry Whetstone is closed to Ice Fishing, but good Ice fishing just down the street.

Andy’s Place was wonderful! The beauty of the lake with the mountains beyond was a wonderful sight to drink coffee and admire in the morning. Our trip started here after a long drive from Michigan, and it was absolutely wonderful. The beds were comfortable, and our host was very thoughtful with the necessities that were at the property. 10/10 for sure!

Absolutely Charming!
What a dream it was to stay at this cute little cottage. The location is gorgeous and easily accessible. We kayaked every night, and had a fire every night! The beds were very comfortable. And the kitchen was fully stocked for all your cooking needs. They even had a cabinets of dried food goods you could use. Would go back in a heartbeat!

We could not have had a better vacation. It’s so hard to tell when booking online if the rental will live up to our expectations. Well, this one certainly did. Do not hesitate to rent this cottage. I cannot count how much time we spent on the dock and on the porch. Absolutely wonderful. The amenities were outstanding.

Our fourth stay on this property
Andy's Place in Abbott, Me never disappoints, never fails to enchant and rejuvenate. This trip was a little kayaking, a little swimming, a little sitting by an evening campfire, and a lot of enjoying the quietness and beauty of Whetstone Pond. As always, we kept watch for the resident loons. The only time we left camp was for our anniversary dinner at The Quarry in nearby Monson. We already have our reservations for next year.! Can't say enough about this beautiful property and the excellent amenities.

Restful and clean
Gorgeous. Well kept cottage and nicely positioned. Like most summer places on the water, there a number of other cottages surrounding the cottage that are not pictured in the listing. However, neighbors were quiet and the public landing next to the cottage was not very busy. Plenty of privacy. We thoroughly enjoed our stay.

Whetstone Pond Cottage
Andy’s Place has a great location on the pond. Fully equipped inside and out. My wife and I fully enjoyed our stay and the weather was fantastic. I brought a canoe with me although kayaks are included in the rental. No luck fishing on the pond but saw loons up close. Did catch a few trout on the Piscataquis River a couple of miles away. We would love to return. We appreciated all the amenities.

On the Pond in Maine
The cabin was very clean and very well supplied. The property ended where the pond began and the host provided a fire pit and chairs for enjoying the view in the evening. A screen in porch was very nice, too. Wish we had known about the boat landing right next to the cabin.
