River Views | Private Hot Tub | The Willow Cabin

Set on a quiet bluff with views of the Union River, The Willow is a quiet, accessible cabin designed for stillness and comfort. It sleeps four, with a queen bed on the main level and a second queen bed in a loft above. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the trees and the rapids, with a hot tub, smokeless fire pit, and 1.5 miles of forest trails just outside. Calm and secluded, yet close to downtown Ellsworth, Acadia National Park, and the beauty of Downeast Maine.

The Willow Cabin is equipped for comfort, quiet, and time spent well—whether preparing a meal, soaking under the stars, or watching light shift through the trees.

Inside, you’ll find a compact kitchen with an induction cooktop, mini-oven, dishwasher, and essentials for daily cooking. There’s a combination washer-dryer, a small desk and chair, and a wood-burning stove for warmth and atmosphere. A mini-split heat pump keeps the air comfortable in any season. Beds are made up with organic cotton and Oeko-Tex certified linens and towels, and the bathroom and kitchen are stocked with simple, plant-based cleansers.

Outdoors, the Willow offers a private hot tub, a smokeless fire pit, a hammock, a propane grill, and outdoor seating. Private parking includes an EV charging station.

The loft sleeping area is accessed by a sturdy alternating tread ship’s ladder, handcrafted on site. Please use care when climbing. The loft may not be suitable for small children or guests with mobility concerns.

Please note:

1. Current rates reflect a significant discount as Arbor Camp continues to grow. While The Willow is complete and fully private, you may hear or see construction activity elsewhere on our 30-acre property as we build additional dwellings. It’s an exciting time—the forest is shifting, new paths are forming, and you’re part of the beginning.

2. The Willow welcomes guests with well-behaved dogs for a $60 additional cleaning fee per dog per reservation (max 2 dogs per reservation.) Dogs must be on a leash at all times when outside at Arbor Camp, and may not use furniture or beds intended for people, but we are happy to provide a clean bed just for them upon your request.

All indoor and outdoor features of the Willow are yours alone to enjoy throughout your stay—from the fire pit and hammock to the grill and private hot tub.

A code for the smart lock will be sent to you the day of check-in.

QUIET HOURS
Quiet begins at 10:00 PM to preserve the stillness of the woods and the comfort of all guests.

TOWELS & BEDDING
Extra towels are provided in the bedroom closet.

CHILDREN & FAMILIES
Families are welcome. Please bring your own portable crib or pack-and-play, as we do not provide these due to insurance reasons.

SMOKING
Smoking is permitted outdoors only. Please dispose of materials safely.

Smoking or vaping inside any cabin or treehouse is not permitted.

If indoor smoking or vaping results in odor, residue, or damage, guests are responsible for the actual cost of cleaning, deodorizing, repair, or replacement, plus a 10% administrative fee. If remediation requires the unit to be taken offline, documented lost revenue may also be charged.

PETS
Select units welcome well-behaved dogs. Dogs must be leashed outdoors and may not use beds or upholstered furniture. We are happy to provide a dog bed upon request.

By paying the pet fee, you also agree that dogs will not be on beds or upholstered furniture. If evidence shows a dog has been on beds or furniture (including excessive hair, stains, or odor), a $120 additional cleaning fee will be charged. If remediation exceeds $120, guests remain responsible for the documented actual cost.

EXTRA CLEANING
Guests are expected to leave the kitchen, grill, cookware, and premises in reasonable condition.

If extraordinary cleaning is required beyond standard turnover — including excessive food waste, heavily soiled cookware, or misuse of the grill — an additional charge of up to $150 may apply. If costs exceed $150, guests are responsible for the documented actual cost.

FIRE SAFETY & EMERGENCIES
A fire extinguisher and first aid kit are provided in each unit.
For emergencies, dial 911 and provide the property address listed in your arrival information.
