We were delighted!

Everything was clean, the house and property were beautiful, the kitchen was supplied with everything we could possibly need, and there was plenty of privacy. We wished we could have stayed longer. The bald eagle and DOZENS of monarch butterflies feeding on the plants in the yard made our visit especially memorable. The agent with whom we dealt while there was extremely helpful to us.

Enjoying Harpswell at Dockside Again

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was the 3rd time my daughter and I rented Dockside. This time my grandson and his finance plus a well behaved retriever stayed with us for a week. It is in a quiet location, beautifully maintained on Ewings Narrows so little boat activity but a short drive into Brunswick. The only suggestion would be to upgrade the 1st floor shower so it is more safe--- very slippery floor and no safety bars!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our 2nd year at Dockside. I used the main floor bedroom and bathroom as I can't do stairs easily. The towel bar was still broken/unusable still--- not yet fixed from last year?!?Why---- should be an easy fix!

Great Property in Harpswell, ME

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Love this property...this was the second time we have stayed there. The view is fantastic and the dock large and makes access to the water easy. Only suggestion is may want to think about replacing the beds in the near future; we used the king, the queen and the full size and all thought they were somewhat uncomfortable. Other than that, everything was great!

Meet me on the dock!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This lovely property was nicely situated with a private dock that we enjoyed immensely. Our fellow travelers bailed out on us at the last minute so really it was much too big for just the two of us,but, it was their loss. Love doing business with Mainstay Vacations and would HIGHLY recommend them. Their service is above average and they truly do everything they can to ensure you have a pleasant stay. This is my second time using them and I wouldn’t hesitate to do it again.

Dockside for Graduation Weekend

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Fantastic! A perfect house, clean and spacious with a lovely waterfront. Our only regret is we were so busy with graduation that we didn't have enough time to be at the house and enjoy it. There is no need to go anywhere -- a perfect spot to spend days reading and relaxing, swimming etc.

We will be back!

Just what we needed for our dogs, cards, mahjong, martinis and eating! We even had a bonus with the Blue Angels practicing for an upcoming show right down the bay the last three afternoons. The three bathrooms and bedrooms were perfect for our group. The proximity to attractions and farmers markets was ideal. Sitting on the dock watching the full moon rise was a great treat.

A perfect place to vacation. Immaculately kept.

We were delighted with the house, Dockside, the condition we found it in and its location. Also the weather couldn't have been more glorious (I know you didn't arrange that!) When we called with a minor problem--the fire alarm beeping--it was immediately attended to. We enjoyed meals on the deck, sunbathing on the dock, even getting in the water. It was interesting to learn that the property had once been a post office.Future visitors would find that interesting, I think. Thank you for everything, we had the best time. Sincerely, Margaret Rumford

Lovely house in a beautiful setting

The house is just terrific. Very spacious and light. Everything in great condition, and equipped with every possible convenience, inside and out. Lovely grounds and waterfront; very peaceful setting. Temps were in the 90's for part of our stay, so a/c in the bedrooms really helped. Great local seafood-- Erika's especially recommended for lobster. Very scenic area, and nearby towns of Brunswick and Bath are well worth exploring.
