Wonderful house. It was spacious and comfortable, we were able to visit with family without feeling like we were on top of one another. The view of the creek from this house is phenomenal, you can hear the water on the porch. Even with neighbors so close, the trees made this house feel so secluded and private, which we really appreciated. The screened in porch was an incredibly spot to sit and sip coffee in the morning and listen to the birds and the water. The attention to detail from the owners was really incredible, from plenty of spare blankets placed around to the complementary dove shampoo/conditioner/soap, and a wonderfully stocked kitchen. If this house is available next year we will absolutely be staying there again.

We enjoyed our stay at Panther Run River Retreat. The house was clean, comfortable and open floor plan and what we needed for a nice long weekend with our 88 year old mom. The river out back was very nice. There’s not too much around but we enjoyed exploring the area nonetheless. The only suggestions we’d make are more pans (not pots). There was only one which made it difficult to cook breakfast. The bathroom had no slip free bathmat. Minor issue but could be dangerous for elderly (or anyone). Overall, it was an enjoyable stay.

From the moment I set foot in this Maine haven, it was clear that this home was something truly special. Nestled beside a serene river, the property boasts a charming dock that invites one for a refreshing dip or a playful swing on the rope. The views are enchanting, and the melodies of nature surround you, creating an ambiance that both calms the soul and uplifts the spirit. Dog lovers will find this place a dream come true. Our four-legged friends can freely roam and play, making memories along the water's edge, all the while in an environment that remains peaceful and undisturbed. Anglers, rejoice! Just a stone's throw away, right across the street, is a fishing area that promises an exhilarating catch of wild freshwater salmon. It’s not often you find such a pristine spot so conveniently located. Inside, the house is a marvel of design—spacious, with an open-concept layout that feels both modern and cozy. Morning coffees on the deck, overlooking the river's grace, became a cherished routine, while the screened-in porch proved invaluable during the buggy season, allowing us to savor the outdoor experience minus any pesky interruptions. Yet, for all its secluded charm, the property is strategically located. A short drive and you're in Portland, with its array of delightful dining options. For quicker bites, Raymond offers gems like Portland Pie, and of course, the Mosquito for that irresistible ice cream treat. In essence, this rental is the perfect blend of rustic charm and modern convenience. Whether you're seeking a weekend retreat or considering a long-term stay, Riverside Retreat in Maine stands out as an idyllic choice. I left with a heart full of memories and an eagerness to return.

Great property, wonderful stay. Had a lot of difficulty with the locks for the home but overall we enjoyed our stay.
