We arrived late at night and the host had left the lights on for us, a nice welcoming note and fresh flowers on the table. We were delighted when we woke up the next morning and were able to see the beautiful view and enjoy the property. It is very quiet and secluded. The house was well stocked and had plenty of space and bedrooms for our large family. the host was very responsive and extremely helpful. We would love to return to enjoy this beautiful location again.

The strength of this home is its size. Beyond all the bedrooms, there is a large living room, large dining room, and a good sized kitchen and the rear deck overlooks the water. The kitchen and living room both had operating wood stoves which were used to take the chill off in the early morning and evenings. Plenty of wood was provided and this greatly enhanced the ambience of the home. The kitchen/panty areas are well equipped. The washer and dryer worked well as did the dishwasher and ample soap was provided. The house was clean when we arrived but it is rustic so it may not feel clean to some. It is an old house with sticky doors, uneven floors, etc. There are 4 baths but two only have clawfoot tubs (no shower) so you only have 2 showers available, one connected to a tub and one tiled shower as part of the first floor master suite. We had a large party so there was occasionally a wait after we went biking/hiking. On the plus, there seemed to be plenty of hot water. The hosts were very responsive to the few questions we had. The only other item to note is that when the sun went down the mosquitoes came out. Having been to Maine many times, that is normal but I would certainly factor that into your plans. Overall, my family would stay here again. It’s size puts it in a class itself and having folks spread out while still having large hang out spaces is very valuable to us.

The house is large with lots of bedrooms, great decks and a wonderful view. The kitchen is big with plenty of room to prepare meals and well outfitted with everything that is needed to make meals for a large # of people. Thurstons Lobster pound is close by and has plenty of seating for groups. We had a great time despite the fog that persisted leading up to Hurricane Lee's arrival.

House was very comfortable and well-equipped for 10 of us. The view was a quintessential Maine vista of firs and sparkling water, with many boats going to and fro. Convenient— we walked 5 minutes to Thurston’s for lobster!
