Lovely cottage in posh Rockport Maine

Guest: Ellie (Cincinnati Ohio)
Date of Stay: 07/03/11 Review Submitted: 08/07/11

We loved Rockport - very quaint and posh village. No horde of tourists as in Camden. Very clean and quiet. With lovely walk around the coast. We saw an amazing golf course at the local country club. The little cottage is lovely and well maintained. It is part of an historic mansion with a fantastic garden. Spotless clean. Ideal for a couple. Amazing view of the bay from the balcony. Kitchen has all the essential for cooking. We enjoyed preparing our own lobsters, oysters and crabs. Owner was helpful and polite. We highly recommend it!

Wonderful week in Maine

Guest: BobiK (North Carolina)
Date of Stay: 06/18/11 Review Submitted: 07/14/11

Spent the week of 6/18/2011 here and had a very enjoyable time. The location is wonderful - Fried Clam Tacos at Shepards Pie (yum!) just around the corner and a beautiful walk along the shoreline at the end of the road. Great base for exploration of the area as well. The cottage is cozy, the kitchen is serviceable (but who wants to cook on vacation in Maine with all of the wonderful restaurants to visit?). The only down side was the double bed - after a king at home, we found it a bit small. Elena was wonderful to work with and the visit was very easy. Just the way we like it.

Owner response:Thank you for being a gracious guest, and thank you for coming to Maine. Sorry the bed was not a king, we do advertise [2] double beds though, which is most preferred size by the young couples staying at our Barn Studio.We have different accommodations elsewhere in the Middle House and in the Tall House with queen and king beds.. for next time..

The perfect retreat in a a beautiful village

Guest: rpr (Amherst, NH)
Date of Stay: 09/10/10 Review Submitted: 09/13/10

This studio is perfect for an individual seeking a retreat or a couple looking for a comfortable apartment in an amazing setting. The view from the windows, and especially the deck, is fantastic - the kind of scene where you chuckle when you awake that there are actually places in the world this beautiful and you are staying here. Rockport is so much nicer than Camden if you like a village instead of a cutsey, touristy town. From here, you can walk to town, kayak, or walk to "The Rocks" in the opposite direction for a picture-perfect setting of Rockport Harbor. The kayaking is especially good here. We plan to return.

A Lovely Hideaway

Guest: Michael (Paris, France)
Date of Stay: 07/18/10 Review Submitted: 08/16/10

I enjoyed the delights of this lovely apartment for two weeks in late July, 2010. The view of Rockport harbor from the balcony is amazing and the apartment, itself, is cozy and inviting. It has all the amenities and is spotlessly clean. I also enjoyed the profound quiet at night and the cool breezes wafting into the apartment as I slept! The location is ideal with easy access on foot to Rockport village, the library, the museum and lovely walks down to Beauchamp point. With a car, you have Camden, Rockland and all the delights of midcoast Maine at your disposal."

Just what the doctor ordered!

Date of Stay: 07/11/10 Review Submitted: 07/17/10

What a beautiful location. The view, the neighborhood, walking distance to Rockport and just a few minutes drive to Camden. The owner was extremely helpful and hospitable and the accommodation was just what as described - clean, updated, but still exuding all the charm of yesteryear. It is a very relaxing place to stay for a week in mid-coast Maine and we hope to be back soon.

Date of Stay: 07/02/10 Review Submitted: 07/13/10

We absolutely loved the view, the location, the amenities and the care the owners show for the property and guests. This was a terrific find. I almost want to keep it a secret...but, we were able to walk to restaurants, the beach, and it was an easy and beautiful bike ride to Camden. We took a sunset cruise on a windjammer just a five minute walk away, plus played golf at some terrific courses including the fabulous one at the Samoset.We hope to come back to this very spot every year.

Having had the opportunity to spend an extended period of time staying in this studio, I consider myself to be very fortunate indeed. It was a delightful home-away-from-home. The studio is bright, airy and immaculately clean. And the view...fabulous!!! Private and quiet yet incredibly accessible...take a walk out to the point or into town. Cannot wait to visit again!

We very much enjoyed our stay in the studio. What a cozy, delightful spot - and what a view. The location is a perfect jumping-off spot for both Camden and Rockland. We found a great walking route that took us along the ocean on a dirt road, and past the local Belted Galloway cows. We would definitely rent it again in the future.

We throughly enjoyed our time last October in this quaint cozy studio. The view of the harbor is a delight, the yard and garden wonderful to take in the sights and smells of Rockport harbor. Very centrally located to access other areas of Maine. Immaculate!
