First time in Maine and we loved staying in a traditional house. Perfect for what we needed! The place was very clean and our host was very helpful and easy to get in touch with.

The house is very comfortable, clean, and spacious. We appreciated the window AC units as it was very hot the week we visited. Overall, this is a very nice and enjoyable property that fit our family of 4 very well. We liked seeing the chickens from next door wander into the yard while we ate dinner on the deck outback. They were super cute.

We had an absolutely lovely stay at this property! It looked exactly as described on the page. The house had just been cleaned and you could tell; it smelled lovely and looked pristine, which was especially comforting in the midst of the pandemic. The house was spacious and certainly has room for a whole family to visit. The property owner and the local caretaker were incredibly helpful and checked on us throughout our stay. There was a slight delay in checking in and they made it up to us by allowing for a later check out. While there isn't a ton going on in the area, it is very quaint and adorable with lots of charm. We stopped by a local dairy farm and it was well worth it. Very close to many other areas of Maine as well, particularly Portland and Freeport. Overall excellent stay in a unique, historic home. Highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in staying in the area!

We were so pleased with everything about our stay. When you rent a house there is often worn furniture and although it may be clean it has that 'lived in worn out look.' That was not the case in this historic well cared for gem. Everything was fresh and clean and the house has such personality. There was plenty of room for the six of us to sit together at the kitchen table and share a meal. The beds are so comfortable; it was hard to get up in the morning except the beauty of Maine beckoned us! There is a small deck outside that is perfect to sit and sip your morning coffee, or sit and relax with a cold drink after a day of exploring. The house was also comfortable enough to just sit relax and play games on a rainy day. The owner went out of her way to accommodate us and is easily accessible. I'm sure we will be back!
