Loved it

Ashley was amazing and extremely helpful. At time I felt I was bothering her with questions about the area however she truly did not mind answering any of them. Her and her husband have a beautiful property and we absolutely loved our stay. It was PERFECT!

Three Family Getaway

This property was nicely suited for a large group. There was plenty of comfortable space for two kids,5 and 10yrs, to play,17 yr old, had private space, and three adult couples, elbow room. The views were beautiful and the cove was a blast for kids and the younger adults. The cove access and the low handrailings on stairs were a little more difficult to navigate for the senior members. All and all a comfortable property with a great location!

Escape Downeast

Property accommodated our family of six very well. Beautiful view with amazing decks and porches. Handy to everything. Peaceful, quiet, and very relaxing! Several things need repairs; ie: front door lock, overhead fans, gas grill. Waterfront and fire pit were not accessible for older people or handicapped. Not publicized in literature. Property manager and owner were very responsive. Our family had a very wonderful time.

Response from VrboOwner on Jul 29, 2023
Thanks very much! Glad you all had a good time. Front door lock is in great shape and thanks for update on issues with fans, which our electrician has remedied. Our grill was indeed tired! The grill we purchased and delivered to you is new and in great shape:). Our waterfront is quite extensive, some of it is navigable for most. The cove is definitely not something I would recommend for all, if only because rocks can be slippery and it is a climb down a stone path. Your feedback about our new fire pit is much appreciated, and as a result, we have moved it to a much more accessible area. Please see pictures!

Perfect getaway

Beautiful area and property! Our family of 10 was very comfortable and had plenty to do at the house and around the Schoodic area. A few of our favorites...low tide on the beach, fresh blueberries, talking with local Mainards, hiking in Acadia, seeing the lobstah boats and eating fresh catches from the co-op...it was truly a trip of a lifetime for us. We loved every minute and made some amazing family memories! We will miss the daily beauty of coastal Maine and will be sure to get back again❤️

Fun with beautiful views

All was well and we had a wonderful time. We did travel around the area quite a bit but always enjoyed coming home to the wonderful house. Our five granddaughters loved being in the loft together. Thank you for a perfect family vacation

Great View

Property had an awesome view of the bay and sunrise. Very private location, just be prepared to drive a bit to Acadia, but overall the area is quiet and easy to navigate.

Response from VrboOwner on Aug 25, 2021
Thanks, Jesse! To clarify further, the Schoodic side of Acadia is 10 minutes from us. Mount Desert Island, i.e., Bar Harbor, is an hour (44 miles). We love visiting, but we are happy to be on the quieter side of Acadia.

Relaxing unpopulated, beautiful scenery, vacation

The process was easy, and the house was clean, bright and modern inside. Beautiful trees all around us with flowers. The beach, Acadia national Park and water excursions were quite close, and easy to book once we got there. Love the country drives.

UMAINE Graduation

We had a wonderful stay. The house was perfect for a large family. We discovered a new area of Maine that we will visit again. The Schoodic peninsula and Corea are beautiful. Wake up early to see the sunrise. It was great having kayaks available at the property. We even got to MDI and hiked the Beehive trail in Acadia. Ashley was a great host.

Beautiful escape in Maine

We rented this property for our Spring break vacation. Ashley, the host, was very responsive and helpful with questions we had about the property and area. It’s a beautiful house in a secluded location, with a wonderful cove. Even in the off-season, there are grocery stories within a 15 minute drive for essentials, and many wonderful hikes both nearby and within an hour’s drive. Highly recommended.
