This Magical Maine Cabin Disappears Into the Woods Thanks to Its Mirrored Walls
Tucked away in the forests surrounding South Berwick, Maine, near Mount Agamenticus, the aptly-named Mirror Cabin at Hidden Pines Cabins is a unique retreat that allows you to get up close and personal with nature.
And you read that right — Mirror Cabin. It's a first for Maine.
A Cabin That Disappears — But Not Like Those Trippy Public Bathrooms
You've probably seen those public bathrooms popping up with mirrored exterior walls, making them invisible while you do your thing. Still, they can mess with your head a little, triggering that weird fear of being watched. In this case, though, no one can see in, and even if they could, it would only be a few curious squirrels or the occasional raccoon.
The quirky cabin's mirrored exterior reflects the surrounding natural wonderland, and in doing so, much like Wonder Woman's jet, it seemingly disappears amidst the trees.

Sound rustic? Call it rustic luxury with a king-sized bed, luxurious linens, a private sauna, hot tub, fire pit, and lots of outdoor living spaces. Also on offer — a projector for streaming your favorite nature-themed flicks, although given the setting, we don't recommend Friday the 13th.
A Unique Getaway Opportunity for Mainers
But Mainers don't stay in places like this, right? Wrong. Accommodations like the Mirror Cabin are far enough outside the norm that they appeal to even the most nature-minded Mainer who has seen all that the Pine Tree State has to offer. Add to that the potential 24% drop in Canadian tourists visiting Maine this year, and there's never been a better time to look into these types of staycation options — close to home and far from the crowds.
What if Mirror Cabin Is Booked Solid? Try the Desert of Maine
And if this magical accommodation gets booked up, not to worry, because while not mirrored, Maine offers many variations on a rustic woodland adventure.
For example, as part of its massive reimagining, the Desert of Maine is for the first time offering stays in geodesic domes. These are in addition to their yurts, A-frames and cabins.
