Classic 1940s Off-Grid Hunting Camp. Secluded Time Capsule in the Maine Woods. Tucked away one mile down a solid gravel camp road, this off-grid camp sits quietly on two wooded acres, offering a rare chance to own a piece of Maine's sporting history. Built and held by the same family for over 80 years, the camp remains largely unchanged. . . a genuine time capsule of a simpler, slower way of life. The main structure is an 18' x 14' hip-roofed cabin, with a cozy 12' x 8' bedroom addition off the back. Inside, a classic wood cook stove provides warmth and charm, reminding you of a time when things were built to last and life followed the rhythm of nature. The camp has been carefully maintained over the decades. In 2010, the bedroom roof was completely replaced and reshingled. Then, in 2017, the main camp was lifted and upgraded with new ground contact treated sills, joists, and subfloor, solid work that preserves its integrity while keeping its vintage character intact. This property comes with deeded access to a spring fed, hand dug, rock lined well. Off-grid and fully unplugged, this retreat is for those who value privacy, simplicity, and a connection to the outdoors. With only one other camp on the road, the peace and seclusion here are hard to match. Thousands of acres of unposted land surround the area, offering nearly limitless opportunity for hunting, hiking, and wildlife watching. You're in the heart of Maine's wilderness, with excellent prospects for whitetail deer, bear, moose (located in Zone 19 for the moose lottery), wild turkey, ruffed grouse, and woodcock. For those who love water, a short walk brings you to the quiet shores of Patten Pond. . . . perfect for swimming, paddling, or fishing in a peaceful setting. This isn't just a camp, it's a lifestyle and a legacy. Whether you're a hunter, naturalist, or nostalgic soul seeking an off-grid escape, this property is a rare find. The good old days are still alive here. . . . waiting for you.
