Our host was warm and welcoming providing us with all items needed for a comfortable stay. The accommodations were charming with beautiful views of the surrounding mountains. Being centrally located it made seeing several different places within short drive. Can’t wait for another trip ro Maine so we can return.

The house is actually more roomy than the pictures appear. It has an open kitchen/dining room area that is quite large. Comfy beds and accurate listing. Would stay again.

Cozy Stayover

Great accommodations from Chip and Kathy. In addition, they live nearby which is great in case anything pops up. Wood stove was already on when we arrived which was warm and cozy. House is right off of Rt 27 with about a 30 minute ride to the Sugarloaf base lodge. Will definitely stay there again.

Beautiful and comfortable house

We loved our two nights here. The bed linens (particularly upstairs) were very comfortable and the kitchen was convenient with everything you need. The bathroom was nice and the shower strong. We didn’t meet the owners but texted with them and they were very accommodating about what we needed to do at checkout (not much). We recommend this house!

Great Location for UMaine Farmington Graduation

Cathy and Chip are wonderful hosts! Liz is a terrific communicator. We rented the VRBO while we enjoyed our daughter's graduation from UMaine Farmington. The house is cozy, neat, well laid out and perfect for our stay. Thanks for making the weekend memory-filled!
