A big thanks to Jim and Shelly Fahey, the previous owners of this fine Portage Lake Rental, for helping out with our transition and keeping up with the bookings and correspondence with recent and near future clients!
The New Owners:
We are Paula & Ernie Smith and live in Bucksport and are called the "Traveling Nomads" by our family because we never light very long in one place.We have only been up a half dozen times, fall and winter, and are looking forward to spending some quality time at this great Portage Lake Vacation Rental ourselves! This area of the North Maine Woods is a great area to come and relax in! And we are really looking forward to some great trout and salmon fishing!
