We totally enjoyed our stay here. Charles and Sandy are very friendly and helped us in anyway they can to make our vacation pleasant. We had fresh lobsters off Charles’s dock everyday. Best lobsters we ever had. Jonesport is a quiet and cozy fishing town. Plenty hiking, etc close by. We will definitely come back!

The house was spacious with a great view, comfortable and well equipped. The owners responded quickly to any inquiry and I really enjoyed talking to Charlie. We had great weather and played golf 3 times, visited Bar Harbor and Cadillac Mountain, Eastport,and Campobello And of course we has lobster, crabs, clams, and haddock. Definitely would stay here again.

Charles and Sandy were such wonderful hosts! Charlie so kindly took the time to take us out on his boat and share with us his expert knowledge of the town, the area, and lobsterfishing. Sandy took so much care in making sure the house was perfectly clean before we arrived. The house was spacious yet cozy, and we loved walking out onto the dock for extra beautiful views of the ocean. The two lobsters per guest were the highlight of our trip, and so so delicious! We love to cook, so we especially appreciated how well stocked the kitchen was with cooking and baking essentials. It was easy to make dinner for our 8-person group, and we even baked a cake! We're so grateful that this Vrbo helped us discover such a beautiful part of Maine. Jonesport is not touristy, and we were excited to experience life in a small coastal town for a few days (although the grocery store is open 7 days a week!). Other highlights of our trip were a hike on Beals Island (which was just as beautiful and much less crowded than Acadia), a visit to the Sardine Museum, and a truly sandy beach only a 10 minute drive away. Thank you so much, Charlie and Sandy for welcoming us into this home!

We enjoyed our stay at Jonesport. Though we got all foggy and no sunshine during our stay, we had a great time. The location is so peaceful, give us tranquility feeling by the water. Charlie took us in boat trips, showed us how to catch lobsters and watched the seals. Him and his crew Dave and Cameron are amazing. They were very nice, friendly, and patient with all of us especially our little one. We had great lobsters as promised and they were soooo good!!! The house is ok, its all very well stocked up though it could use some updates. All communication before and during the stay was amazing. Sandy and Charlie are truly amazing people and treated us like family. You felt so welcome and any questions you have, they were very accommodating and helpful. Jonesport is a place where you want to relax and enjoy your time. Had chance to get fresh mussels and watched the production from Moosabec Mussel. Ralph was amazing.
Jonesport is tight community and people were amazing.

We arrived later than expected and the owners made sure the lights were on and things were ready for us. They maintained communication with us, took us out on the lobster boat, and showed us how to cook the lobster. Any questions we had they immediately answered. Would totally recommend!! My children loved the area too!!

The house is in a perfect location in a quaint little fishing town to explore many areas of Maine. Hiking on Beals Island is beautiful! The lobster cooking experience was a absolutely delicious and so much fun! The house has everything you need with a grocery store just up the road. Our host Charles Smith was very gracious and a great person to spend the afternoon with on his fishing boat. Thank you for sharing your home Charles, Sandy, Hannah, Charlie Jr!

Thank you very much to Charlie and Sandy, the house was perfect. It provided enough room for all 6 of us.
The view was amazing, we enjoyed the fire pit. Getting to watch the sunsets was so relaxing.
Charlie was a great host, checking in with us, making sure we had everything we needed. So friendly and kind, the true heart of Jonesport . I will be using his rentals again for upcoming visits for sure. And highly recommend staying here

We had an incredible time staying at this house in Jonesport, Maine. Charlie and Sandy are incredible hosts. The house takes advantage of the beautiful bay views. The new fire pit at waters edge is a great place to spend time watching the boats, birds and clouds. The house is well equipped with anything you need in the kitchen and has a beautiful deck where you can eat and hang out. If there is rain or cold weather, you can enjoy the views from the living room and Charlie’s built in bar. The lobsters were amazing and there were also delicious crabs! As awesome as the house is, the highlight of our trip was meeting Charlie and going on an excursion on his lobster boat to a beautiful beach that can only be accessed by boat and having seafood cookout on the boat. We also really enjoyed the beautiful areas to hike nearby and the quiet beaches. We prefer less crowded, quiet places to vacation and this was exactly that! We will return! We would give it 10 stars if we could.

This is our second visit with Sandy and Charlie. We again stayed 7 days. The house is a great old family home in which you can feel the love and see the crayon marks. It is even better than the photos. We had a family group of five adults. There was plenty of room. The house is clean, the beds are comfortable, the kitchen is well appointed, the WiFi is fast and reliable, and there is a TV in every room. There are two convenience stores around the corner and a Hannaford's in Machias, about a half-hour away. The temperature in August was 77. The sunsets are just awesome. Every night we ran outside with our cameras to capture the moment.
We ate lobsters almost every day. We had the lobster feast that came with the rental, then we made lobster rolls out of the leftovers, then we bought some lobsters wholesale from Charlie's son's catch, and finally, Charlie took us out on the lobster boat, pulled a couple of traps, and cooked the lobsters onboard. We are looking forward to visiting Charlie and Sandy next year.

My family -- all from Maine -- now live in different areas of the country and were looking for a house on the coast to come together and spend some time during the summer. Charlie and Sandy's was the perfect place! The house is spacious and cozy. We spent a lot of time outside on the deck with beautiful views of the ocean. All of us slept comfortably. Charlie and Sandy were great communicators and the check-in process was seamless. Best of all, as other reviews have mentioned, was heading out with Charlie on one of the lobster boats -- an d of course, the lobster we cooked later that tonight.
Truly can't say enough good things about this experience, and we're looking forward to returning next year!

Charlie and Sandy were delightful hosts! They kept in contact with us, seeing if we needed anything. Charlie even took us on the boat to see the lobsters being taken in from the traps. We had lots of space and most everything someone could want or need! Great place! Great people!

Jonesport vacation
We enjoyed our stay at this property. Charles was an excellent host. He went out of his way to make us comfortable. He treated us to lobsters and a very interesting boating trip to show how lobsters are caught in the bay.
The property was adequate for our group of 10 people. The house is little old but well kept. Kitchen was well stocked with utensils and appliances. The location is peaceful, away from the bustle of crowded cities. We had amazing view of evening sunset from the wharf. overall we had a comfortable and enjoyable stay. My best wishes to Charles and Sandy.

The owners were very friendly and right there to answer questions or if any need that came up. The view from the deck is breathtaking. There was plenty of space for all the kids and both families to have their own space.

The house overall was very nice. The best part of the house is the view you get of the water is absolutely stunning. You have all the basic cooking ware needed to make a meal along with all the spices, but make sure you bring your own condiments/coffee. The owners were easy to communicate with as well.

Eclectic house in a small fishing community.
This is an eclectic house in a small little fishing village. The view of the bay is gorgeous. It was so peaceful to sit on the patio and just absorb the beauty. For us, it was a marvelous opportunity to see the fall colors of Maine and to completely get our fill of Lobster. Charlie was an amazing host and took us out on his Lobster boat. He also gave us a tutorial on cooking our "fresh caught Lobster" for dinner. AMAZING!!
We will be back.

Our family enjoyed our stay at Charlie's and Sandy's, we had plenty of room for all 7 of us. The location is great for visiting all the area sites. We had a unique & unforgettable experience on the lobster boat. The children loved walking down for low tides each day. Our lobster feast was amazing. We were so blessed to have such a great Maine experience. Thanks so much to Charlie & Sandy for sharing their house, boat & time with us. We have wonderful memories to treasure.

We enjoyed our stay at this property so much. We had 4 couples in our group and we all were very comfortable staying there. Charlie and Sandy are great communicators and answered all of our many questions promptly. As others have said, the highlight was the trip with with Charlie to get a lesson in lobster fishing. What a feast we enjoyed with their expertise in how to eat lobster properly!
Plan to bring in groceries (or buy at Manaford’s- the best option for groceries) when you get there or drive 30 mins to a restaurant.
We loved our stay here and highly recommend this property!
