My family and I have rented homes on lakes/ocean in ME over the past several years and this was by the far the best house we’ve stayed at. Clean, modern, beautiful views, spacious. Heating worked perfectly and all kitchen necessities allowed us to easily cook meals. Would absolutely come back again - even in winter/spring! ##### Charlotte W.

I actually jumped off the dock into the freezing water twice! Morning coffee on our deck watching the lobster boats and evening cocktails by our fire pit we’re our highlights. Beautiful location next to restaurants, walking trails, etc.. Highly recommend this well furnished and beautifully decorated home. ##### Sandra P.

It was the perfect location to be back from the midwest and immersed into the Atlantic Ocean culture again from our childhoods. The view is more than spectacular and the dock access to the ocean was more than we had even hoped for. We loved our stay and would highly recommend it to all who love nature! ##### Suzy B.

Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Danna G. 1 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Well-cared for property, lovely view We spent a happy six days here with no problems; we had asked for, and promptly received, some batteries for the fireplace remote. Well-equipped kitchen, tiny dishwasher so we felt bad about having to do multiple loads, and I would suggest a waste basket in each bedroom. Additionally, I would urge people to be careful with the upstairs bedroom sink since the water comes out pretty strongly and could potentially flood around the raised basin. We were very careful to wipe up any extra water. ##### Danna G.
