Great home for large group. We had 5 adults and plenty of room for us and more. The home was very nice and clean and close to things we wanted to do. Check out Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens if you are in the area. Would be a home we would rent again.

Beautiful house

This is a lovely home with everything you'll need for a stay in the Midcoast. The house is big, the furniture is comfortable, all the bathrooms are great, the deck is huge, and the kitchen is well-equipped. As others have said, another AC unit would be useful upstairs--it definitely got a bit toasty in the two big bedrooms. Our biggest issue was the view to the lake--the undergrowth and saplings need to be thinned out so you can see and engage with the water more. It's such a lovely spot on the lake--quiet and private--it's a shame it can't be seen from the house more. But overall, this is a great property in a good location. We'd certainly come again.

Clean, Great Location and Brand New!, But......

We loved the location, amenities in the home, the dock and deck were all top notch. Beds were comfy and warm inside with easy entrance and security. Only issue was periodic smell in the kitchen after shower/washing machine use. It smelled like septic backing up, but only after use of the shower/washing machine and only in the kitchen. We contacted property manager and she called the plumber 3 times, with no response. She was very responsive to our concerns via text. A handyman showed up the next day and could appriciate the smell, but on a lesser degree. We only had a 4 night stay, so unsure if problem persisted or if it was due to the system not being used in the days or weeks prior. Overall great place with everything you need, just the smell kind of made it tough at times, but would clear out in 15 minutes after shower use with opened windows...luckily is was cool (October), but not cold outside.

Great home, needs a sign at driveway!

The house was great, very clean and comfortable mattresses. The upstairs bed frame (bedroom with queen, lakeside) was quite squeaky and affected our sleep. We missed the driveway about three times as the mailbox is between two drives and the driveway is very hard to see. A sign, reflector or something would be super helpful! We could not find any coffee carafes (there were two coffee makers) so we opted to order a coffee box from Dunkin Donuts. After a few texts with property management we found out it had been reported broken but had not been replaced. One was never delivered so we decided to buy a coffee maker and left it at the house. That was a little disappointing (just not something you want to deal with while on vacation). The lake was beautiful and proximity to town was nice. We would recommend the house but expected more from the management company.

Great house!

The house was amazing; very well decorated and kept. Everything was in working order and the place was spotless when we arrived. The pictures don’t do the location justice. The view of the lake is great, the deck is enormous and my kids had a great time exploring the lot leading down to the water.

Still a remarkable house and property, though perhaps too popular!

This is our second fall renting this house. There is nothing like sitting on the deck or dock at this lovely property. It would be wonderful if we could move the road that goes around the corner on the other side of the trees (trucks have to downshift), but that aside, the lake is generally incredibly peaceful. The inside of the house is well-equipped and beautifully decorated. There was room for our two guests who stayed a couple of nights with us, and they felt as comfortable as we did. Really appreciated the owners keeping the dock up into October for us. We have loved the location for all the side trips we have wanted to take over the past two years.

Unexpected surprises

Stay was fine-exhaust fan on stove broken; noticed odor from master bath area-had to leave window cracked to dissipate smell. Construction going on next door. A lot of heavy trucks went by on road making it noisy during the day. Unable to get regular channels on TV-not a fan of TV package. Had problem entering on arrival due to someone locking door improperly from inside. Caretaker arrived to collect trash & was able to let us in. Glad we didn't get there at night. Cleaning people should be more careful how they lock the door.

Maintenance Issues

Chandler was amazing! She came to the property the next day after we arrived and did everything she could to fix the problems and was patient and understanding. However, the excellent service stopped there. Our dishwasher stopped working and we were told it could not be repaired during our stay because servicemen were in short supply. We had no use of the dishwasher and had to wash everything by hand. We were surprised that your company did not have skilled personnel to take care of this. When we asked for a late check out all we got was excuses and delays and promises. Every time I sent a text message I would get back an automatic reply as if no one was really paying attention to us. We finally got an answer that they would charge us $40 to check out at noon instead of 10 AM. No consideration was given to us for all of the inconvenience that we suffered. A very disappointing experience other than working with Chandler who is an asset to your company. The property was extremely clean and beautiful. However, I think it is important for guests to know that the road is close by and there is a lot of road noise even at the back of the house. Also, the house behind us was being renovated and that was also occasionally disruptive. That was something that should’ve been disclosed in the property description to prospective guests.

Quaint Maine neighborhood close to several activities

This property is located in a beautiful setting on a lake. The porches offer several areas to view the wildlife that visit the property and the home is welcoming with lots of amenities. We enjoyed being located so close to Damariscotta and other coastal towns and trails. The hosts have thought of everything and made our stay an amazing one.

Beautifully renovated home with nice dock on Damariscotta Lake

House is nicely appointed and spacious. Very large deck with gas firepit, large gas grill and plenty of seating; dock on the lake with comfortable chairs and beautiful view of lake. Kitchen well equipped and all new appliances. Two upstairs bedrooms have one AC unit in hallway - upstairs gets pretty warm when temps are above 80 degrees outside. Otherwise house was great for our family reunion.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great experience. The property has really comfortable and easy to get to. Not too far from town. It didn't feel too isolated but still felt like we had our space. Recommendations: The property had 1 tv in the shared space, which is tough when you are in a bigger party. Also, a couple rooms can get a bit hot because they don't have a mini split, but most were fine. Overall, we would recommend.
