Home away from home with way better views!
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this gorgeous property! The views were stunning and incredibly relaxing, and the house itself is beautifully charming – it truly feels like a well-loved home. We particularly enjoyed the artwork throughout, which we believe was created by the homeowner.The space was perfect for our mini-family reunion of seven people. Our six-year-old loved the couch, though we adults found it a bit less comfortable and opted to sit elsewhere – that would be our only minor suggestion for improvement.We couldn't have asked for a better experience and honestly wished we could have stayed longer. We'd love to return in the future! A special mention for Chuck and Mary, who we had the pleasure of meeting – such lovely, welcoming people.Highly recommended!

Great stay!
Conveniently located near MMA. Nicely equipped, clean house. So appreciate that the house is pet friendly. Sometimes worry that pet friendly places will smell like dog ( pet friendly hotel rooms are the worst). Not this house. Very well maintained. Yard and rocky beach are beautiful. Very easy check-in. Loved the back deck, stargazing at night was beautiful. Lots of wildlife; saw deer every evening and an eagle. Thank you for a great family stay.

Family reunion for father's memorial service
This is a delightful property with all the amenities you need to enjoy a retreat from the hustle and bustle of just about anywhere else! The bedrooms are large and accommodating. The kitchen is well appointed with completely functional appliances, including microwave and gas stove top (which I prefer). The living room dining room is well furnished, cozy and comfortable. If you desire there is the ability to log on to just about any streaming service you are subscribed to (Hulu, Netflix, Prime, Disney, etc...). In addition, the house is situated almost directly center of a large, several acre lot that is wooded on the road side and with a grass field that leads you to the Penobscot Bay. The well cut paths were wonderful to stroll on and enjoy the scenery of the Bay, especially the old rusted fishing boat just down the shoreline that makes for good pirate stories!
All in all, this was a great place to recharge our inner batteries and share old times and stories as we got together for such a solemn but also joyous celebration of our father's life!

Such a Beautiful Location!
The location was exceptional, check in was super easy and the house was clean and tidy. The house is exactly as pictured, but the photos do not do the location any justice. If I would have known how amazing it was, I would have planned a full day just to walk around the land and water area. There were literally thousands of fireflies at night (really, it was magical!) and a momma and a fawn walked through the yard in the morning. You will love your stay here!
