Beautifully kept home overlooking the water on Whetstone Pond. Peaceful and perfect place to relax, read and enjoy nature. Beautiful touches all around the home and both us and our dog were at ease immediately walking in. Check out Monson, Greenville and short trips to Bangor, Bar Harbor .thank you!

Wonderful stay

We’re so glad we booked a couple nights at Andy’s Place! We usually stay at the A-frame (which we love), but this home offers a completely different and equally wonderful experience. It’s full of charm and character—you can really feel the love and thought that went into creating the space.We spent most of our time out on the porch, just soaking in the peaceful vibe and listening to the rain. Our senior dog was also very relaxed here and enjoyed her time napping on the porch.Wish we had stayed longer and didn't have to leave tomorrow but we will definitely be back! Thank you for sharing such a special place.
