Staff is accommodating and friendly. Place is rustic log cabin awesome. Can't wait for summer. They have boat rentals too.

We stayed at the Gill house. It was an enjoyable walk to the lodge for drinks or dining. We stayed in October during a warm spell. We rented a boat and headed out on the lake, enjoying a picnic surrounded by beautiful views. The golfing was terrific, surrounded by water and watching the moon rise as we finished up our... More

We have stayed at The Birches several times, and have NEVER been disappointed with the experience. We have stayed in the lodge, in cabins and rented houses, and each of those accommodations has always been fabulous. I love the rustic feel and charm of the whole place!! The staff has always been welcoming and accommodating and the restaurant serves the... More

Not 1 or 2....we counted at least 8. They were not shy...one ran across my purse and under my bed. My son went to the bathroom and there were 3 sitting on a shelf above the toilet. Several upstairs in the loft...they were literally everywhere. At first when my daughter and I screamed, my two teenage sons thought it was... More

First of all, I have 2 positives about The Birches. The bar/lounge area is very cozy with a double sided stone fireplace and leather couch and tree stump bar stools and a view of the lake. Also, the lady at the front desk (didn't catch her name) was very friendly and really helpful. She gave us some tips on where... More

Given the magnificent view of Moosehead Lake from our cozy log cottage one would think the innkeepers would pay more attention to the condition of their bedding. My pillow had years worth of drool, sweat and whatever on it. It was covered by a threadbare pillow case. The blankets were pilled and not clean. All of the linens were mismatched... More

We were staying in Greenville, Maine and decided to take a drive to Rockwood to see what they offered for dinner. We stumbled upon the Birches Resort as there is not much to choose upon there. When we got to the restaurant area at first it just said office. We weren't sure if we were at the restaurant but went... More

We didn't stay at the resort - but we came up from Sebec to do a moose tour for the family. It was 3 hours of fun. Took a nice tour around Kineo & the lake, and then into some of the bogs to look for Moose. We didn't actually see any, but that isn't the fault of the tour... More

I looked into staying at The Birches - but quickly realized that it was too primitive for me. Shared baths, no a/c, pets allowed are NOT for me. We stayed at Chalet Moosehead in Greenville in a Deluxe room (read my review of that for Moosehead area's definition of Deluxe) but we did their Moose Cruise. It was very nice,... More
