About this house rental

Nestled in Stonington, this attractive house for $436 per night is a fantastic option for your next break. Do you crave balmy summer evenings or frosty winter days that make you feel like you've been transported back to a simpler time? Or long for days spent on the water or experiencing village life with friendly locals in charming pubs tasting local eats? Experience the simple joys of life with rustic yet modern amenities offered at this coastal 2-story home. Whether daily strolls by the water or taking in the sunset on your deck, you'll fall in love with this lovely New England destination. This home is owned and operated by Ohana Inns. Our full-service vacation rental company means family, and we offer warm and welcoming accommodations for the whole family, including your furry friend. Please note that this home does not include an elevator for wheelchair access. Pet Policy: Here at BayView House, we welcome your four-legged family member. However, we ask you to help us with the following pet rules while staying with us. 1. Please don't leave your pet in the rooms unattended. Why? Because they miss you and from our experience of being professional hosts since the 90's, when they are lonely they howl or bark causing others to lose the quiet enjoyment on the property. Lonely pets also use the bed or other furniture to snuggle on while you are away. This is super tough for our housekeepers to remedy because blankets or comforters need to be washed or replaced, also furnishings can take hours to remove hair from so we can present a clean space for the next guest. Maine is a very pet friendly place and since you brought them on vacation we hope you keep them with you so they can enjoy "Vacation Land" as much as humans do. 2. Please pick up all the poop/excrement they may have. 3. Please have your pup on a leash when enjoying the common areas. 4. Please try to refrain your dog from barking. We have supplied you with a pet basket, which includes the following. 1. A blanket to be used if your pet sleeps on the furniture or with you on the bed. 2. A towel to be used if your pet gets wet. We have dog treats, extra poo bags and a water bowl in the common room. *There will be an additional cleaning fee charged if your pet makes a mess of the room or the bedding. We hope that you and your four-legged family member have a great stay here at Inn On The Harbor in Stonington. At Ohana Inns, we are available 24/7 through call, text, or email. When staying with us, you can expect total privacy but a quick and prompt response should you reach out.

My wife and I had an absolutely beautiful stay at this home - one of our favorites ever. It was stocked with all necessary linen items we could need, a full kitchen, and was very clean. Every night and every morning we sat on the porch and watched the lobster boats float in and out of the water with a candle lit & beverage in hand. The beds were comfortable. House was secure and easily walkable to the quiet fishing shops and restaurants. It is worth noting that Stonington is not the typical tourist town - it’s only got a few shops and restaurants - but that’s part of what makes it so magical! As this was my first visit to Maine, I would recommend to research this VRBO location in proximity to other activities you may want to do here. For example, we drove to Bar Harbor & Acadia Park one day and it was about 1 hr 20 mins away - reasonable for a day trip! I would definitely recommend this spot to a couple looking for a romantic getaway. Thank you for this stunning property!

We loved our first trip to Maine and are so glad we stayed in Stonington away from the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor. The Mail Boat to Isle of Haut and Duck Harbor is a must.

We had a short but very nice stay. It was clean and had everything we needed (except the hairdryer that was listed). It was off-season so very quiet. Just a short walk to town. The bed was super comfy and the Smart TV and wifi came in handy. Would definitely go back. Note to rental company: There is a lot of dog poop in the yard. Maybe from local pups, but just an fyi.
