The home is spacious, clean, and beautifully situated in the picturesque Casco Bay region. Our hosts made us feel welcome and safe from the start, and we had a wonderful time in the area. The house was the perfect size for our big group of adults, teens, and children. Would return any time.

The house is great ... except that the bathroom to bedroom ratio is not well explained in the description. For instance, one of the "bathrooms" is not an actual bathroom, but the "components" of a bathroom directly in the master bedroom on the upper level. This made it impossible from a practical perspective for anyone OTHER than the couple in that room to use those facilities. in the lower level, the "3rd bedroom" wasn't really a bedroom, but a bed in the "common space," which required the others in those actual bedrooms to have to walk through that bedroom to get to theirs ... nothing to be done for either of those challenges, but i don't think the home's description was very accurate in terms of what the house offered.

We stayed here with an extended family group and we loved the house and the location. We had pkenty of room for everyone to sleep, and the living area and kitchen were great because we had plenty of room to all be together. The deck was a great spot for coffee every morning and we loved the view. A couple of nights we used the fire pit and that was really nice. We felt we had everything we needed and really enjoyed the few days we were there. One of the best things was that the bedrooms had air conditioning. Many of the houses we've rented before did not, and it makes a huge difference. We didn't have any issues while we were there, except I had trouble getting the key back into the lockbox but that's just me. We almost had to reach out to the owner the first day because my mother has mobility issues and almost could not get up the front steps. After a little while she was able to, but had I called she probably would have told me there was some kind of a ramp in the garage (which we did not notice until our last day!). Anyway, we all really enjoyed the house and were very comfortable. I would recommend this property and would definitely look at staying here again.

A great spot for a group of friends to gather. Cozy living spaces and comfortable beds. 6 fully private bedrooms, one is at the bottom of the stairs in the basement so will be accessed by all who stay downstairs. Lack of blind for the sky light in the master bedroom and in the downstairs living area with futon made it difficult to sleep past the early sunrise. Plenty of bottled water was included as the house uses well water, which is very metallic. We met the owner, Pam, at her ice cream shop down the road and she is lovely and easy to communicate with.

Great Space for a Large Family
I stayed here with my family and sisters, and one of my sisters brought her husband and two children. The house had enough space for all of us to be together and yet have space to ourselves. We had a lovely time. We came for my daughter’s graduation and would recommend this space to anyone.

Fantastic View!
I take my adult children on a vacation over Labor Day in lieu of Christmas presents. This location was perfect for 6 adults with plenty of room to spread out. The balcony was spacious and overlooked the water. The neighborhood was quiet and somewhat secluded. There were plenty of utensils to cook breakfast and lunch. Of course, we ate dinner out to get that tasty Maine seafood. I highly recommend the Dolphin Marina restaurant and their seafood risotto. YUM! We had a couple of communications with the Douglas family that were immediately addressed. We also like to play pickleball (as the whole world seems to be doing!) and there was a court not 10min away. I would highly recommend The Soundings as a great Maine get away!
Spectacular water view, surrounded by green lawn with flowers. Quiet area, with easy access to small beaches, walking trails & harbors.

Sister’s Getaway
We really enjoyed staying at this home. We were 7 Sisters on our annual getaway and each had a bed on their own. We appreciated having a washer/dryer and dishwasher. The kitchen had all of the things we needed including all the dishes for a lobster feast. There was plenty of room on the porch for us to gather. The kitchen table had 6 chairs but we easily fit a 7th chair with plenty of room. There was plenty of hot water for all of us to shower. This home has 2 kitchens which was great because we brought our own meals to prepare. Between the 2 refrigerators, we were able to keep our food chilled until we were ready to use. Two of the siblings are always up early, They stayed at the lower level. The rest of us stayed at the main level and on the 3rd level where the master suite is. The basement bedrooms didn't have air conditioning but it was cool enough at night to open windows. The water from the faucet was yellow but the owners provided us with a tank of spring water. You could get cold or hot. We drank one of these tanks and more were provided in the front closet. We found a cupboard with several spices including salt and pepper. We used the fire pit one evening. The chairs around the pit are plastic and the ground uneven. It made it difficult to find solid ground to sit and enjoy each other's company. One of my siblings fell sideways causing a domino effect. We had a good laugh and decided to reconvene on the deck. Would definitely stay here again!

Perfect Maine stay for big group
We were all very comfortable at our stay. Was a perk to see the water!
It was a perfect home base to explore the local area. The property can accomodate many people, 3 washrooms with showers, fully equipped to accomodate our needs, and more. We loved it! Highly recommend.
