Lovely home in great location in Midcoast Maine
We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home - it was a great location for visiting Maine - loved the shopping and restaurants in Camden and Rockland, and day trips to Acadia National Park and Monhegan Island were highlights of our vacation. Plenty of room for 8 adults and one infant. The property is very expansive and well situated. The bedrooms were comfortable and the kitchen and dining area were easily able to accommodate our large group. Would recommend for large groups and definitely consider going back again!

This property was perfect for our family. The location was close to everything and so peaceful at the end of busy days. The home was very nice and the grounds were beautiful! We all agreed we would stay again. Would love to know any history of the house. The art work was appreciated.

Wonderful house. Wonderful time
The property is beautiful and kept up well. The kitchen is SO well stocked! It is not baby proofed but if you come prepared it’s easy to make it work. Only two things I would say to improve the stay 1) bring rubber soled slippers for inside. The stairs are slippery without shoes ( which the owner requests you not wear) 2) it would be helpful to include directions for the dishwasher. We eventually figured it out but the buttons are no longer readable and we spent two or three days working on figuring it out. These two minor things did not impact the enjoyment of our stay. It was great!

Restful in Maine
Lovely spacious home with a wonderful gourmet kitchen on a beautiful, private property. We had five adults and one two year old. Everyone was comfortable and had a great time in spite of rain every day. It’s a short 10-15 minute drive to the 3 lovely towns of Rockland, Rockport and Camden.

We will be back!

Beautiful, art-filled home
This home is even better, and bigger, than the photos convey. Six of us stayed here for a family get together and all of us had comfortable rooms, access to well appointed bathrooms (including a luxurious master bath) and more than enough room to spread out and be comfortable indoors and out as well as gather for big meals. The chef's kitchen is huge and the most well stocked one I've seen in a rental, and the home is filled with amazing art and books. The location is great--both for having quiet and privacy, as well as access to the cove, and for getting to Camden, Rockport, Rockland and beyond. Lots of great hiking nearby. Also glad we took the owners' recommendation and did a day trip to Monhegan Island which was a highlight for us. My whole family, who can be picky, loved the place. Would 100% stay here again.
