Wedding weekend
We had a family wedding at The French's Point which was like 3 minutes by car from this rental. The house was perfect for my family. I love the outside. Also we had a problem with one of the bathrooms and the owner was able to take care of it within an hour. Highly recommend this rental

Perfect location and beautiful home
We came to Maine to experience the life along Maine’s coast- we picked this VRBO because of price, location, and the beauty of the home - the owner responded to our text’s quickly - we had no big issues with the property- and the handbook and email’s explained everything we needed to know. Was a wonderful trip- we went to Bucksport, Belfast, Camden and Acadia National Park.

First Maine Trip
Cottage was perfect for a family of 6 adults. Plenty of room for sleeping and eating dinners together. It was nice to have three bathrooms also. The cottage is in a very quiet peaceful location. There are many things to do close by and not too far from Bar Harbor. We enjoyed our stay!

Vacation
Very nice property, very well stocked and clean. We really didn`t have to buy a thing except for our food. My 5 year old grandson loved playing with all the toys provided. Loved the wild gardens in the front. Didn't sit outside too much due to the mosquitos, but I read something about an outdoor screened in area being built. We had someone in a wheelchair with us and after pulling her up the 4 wooden front stairs she was able to access the entire downstairs which is appreciated as it is very difficult to find a house able to somewhat accommodate someone in a wheelchair even though this property is not listed as handicapped accessible, we`ve learned to make due with what is available. The bathroom in the downstairs bedroom was very large and she was also able to access that which is extremely appreciated. From this house we were able to visit Bangor, Belfast, Bar Harbor, Acadia, Bucksport and Sandy Point beach.

This is a beautiful, well maintained house with an updated an FULLY stocked kitchen and plenty of room for our group of 8 people. The hosts were also incredible thoughtful and welcoming. The house is full of toys, games, and items you might need, like bug spray.

Charming home with lots of room and beds
We had 4 generations of family members and 2 friends that stayed here, so the 4 bed rooms and 3 baths came in handy. The home owners was very accommodating and even purchased-supplied a 'pack-n-play' when we inquired if they had access to one, so that we didn't have to include it in all of the other items we needed for a toddler. The toys came in handy to occupy our toddler and even if we had older children it would have been a perfect fit. Was centrally located to all of the Maine towns that we planned on visiting. Sandy beach would have been a great place to play if it was warmer during our stay and would have been very secluded with little to no beach goers.

Antique/Historic feel to the home
Former post office of the area/village and was spacious with more than enough sleeping arrangements for our 4. 6 beds went unused! There is no AC except in 1 room upstairs but several fans help move air. The kitchen has more than enough of everything imaginable. Communication with the host was quick and helpful. A few items need attention, water pressure in upstairs sink (shower was fine) and the kitchen faucet was just a trickle due to broken aerator. Probably will be fixed soon. Checkout is 10 AM even though it says 11 at 1 space on the description. Didn't matter to us. The location is, 45-60 minutes from Arcadia and that nearby peninsula so not close but again, quite manageable. Quiet and serene; we enjoyed the property.

Annual visit to Maine
We’ve been coming to Maine annually for about 10 years to visit with extended family and to explore. We’ve stayed in a number of different rental homes, and found this property to be ideally located between many of our favorite points such as Acadia, Bangor, and Belfast, and each year we discover new mini trips to take. This year we added Deer Isle to our list. We enjoy this quiet location, off the main roads, and have felt comfortable returning here each night. Our children enjoy playing in the loft bedroom with all the toys, and the well provisioned kitchen allows us to minimize our dining out all the time. As we plan ahead for next year’s trip, we will be keeping this location on our short list.

Wonderful Family Getaway
We had a terrific time staying at this idylllic home in the Stockton Springs area. It’s location was great for getting down the coast in either direction for exploring or going just down the road for fun at sandy beach. The home was wonderful and had everything we could need and more and the hosts were kind and easy to communicate with.

Maine Vacation 2021
We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again! The home is great, so comfortable and clean. We all enjoyed the sunroom and our girls are still talking about the trundle beds and toys in the loft area and the books in the living room. Our one daughter was completely fascinated with all the small doors in various rooms which adds to the charm. We cooked a lot of meals in and the kitchen was easy to navigate. The location was great for us as we needed to visit Farmington and Bangor and also wanted to spend time in Acadia. We visited the Sandy Point Beach a few times since it is so close.

Quiet Retreat
It was a cozy house and on a nice quiet road that allowed the kids to scooter, skateboard and rollerblade and made for nice runs/walks. The kids also loved the paved driveway. The one downside is that the grounds were not what we were hoping, The gardens right up against the house were very over grown and the lawn had not been mowed, so there wasn't much green space to hang out in. The water pressure in the kitchen also made for a tough time cooking and cleaning, as we did not eat out. Overall, we had a wonderful time.
