We had a wonderful stay at Whale of a View. We had an amazing view and spent hours watching eagles catching fish from the decks. Cozy house with everything we needed. The owner is very nice and called to check in with us as a major storm was approaching. Everything was amazing and we are looking forward to coming back!

The house is very comfortable with great living atea, screened deck and patio. Saw minke whale every day. Bring your binoculars! The Pier was a nice laid back restaurant but options limited. Beaches are great for pebble and sea glass hunts. Roosevelt Park is very interesting and beautiful… all free. Border crossing takes 5-10 minutes from your car. Very easy. Dennis, property owner, is friendly and helpful. Do not wait to get groceries on island. Stores have very little, including spices. Last big store is in Machias. IGA in Lubec had good selection, though. However, house kitchen could use a good nonstick pan for at home cooking. Brought our own knife.
Pictures do not do this place justice. Lovely view out of windows. Fire pit fantastic. We were able to get some wood at Village grocery on island ( but no salt! LOL). Dennis also gave us some, too. Bring bug spray but a light dosing and mosquitoes stayed away. Beautiful stars.HIGHLY RECOMMEND visit.

This is our second summer staying at Dennis’s property and certainly won’t be our last! The view can’t be beat, we spent most of our days sitting on the decks on the lookout for whales. Dennis was the perfect host and everything we needed was available.

Whale of a view did not disappoint. Well situated with clear unobstructed views of sunsets and whales and other sea animals.

The property itself was just what my family was looking for in a waterside view vacation. The only thing I would comment on are a few amenities such as the kitchen sink, bathroom sink and shower which all could use an upgrade as well as the bedroom pillows which were very flat and uncomfortable.
5.0
Awesome. Great cottage in a rustic setting to enjoy marine wildlife including whales from the comfort of the deck overlooking the bay. The owners were very pleasant and accomodating. Perfect experience. John, Theresa, Jack and Kim.

We only had two nights to get away, and all I can say is that it is absolutely beautiful. Dennis dropped by shortly after our arrival to make sure everything was to our liking. He is a very courteous host. My favourite place was the screened-in porch where we could see and hear whales, and the sunsets were fabulous. If you are coming here, I suggest you stay a week :)

This property was incredible! It checked off all of our boxes, and even the boxes we didn't anticipate. I would definitely recommend this property to others, and I would stay there again next time I'm in the area.
