It sounds like you made the most of your time there, from relaxing on the porch to enjoying the sunsets by the fire pit. Those moments by the water are what make the place so special. Thanks for the kind words, and if you find yourselves back in Maine someday, we'd love to welcome you back.

Fantastic location for peace and beauty

Eddie is a wonderful host. If you get the chance to rent this house, you should. The home is located on a quiet, peaceful dead end street. The ocean view is beautiful with tranquility and abundant nature. If you desire a quiet getaway out of the busiest tourist area but, close to tourist locations, this home is perfect. Eddie has equipped the home with all that you will need. The kitchen is great for cooking which we did not do much of. The beds are comfortable, etc. Overall, a great 5 star stay that I recommend.

Thank you so much Tamara! I’m really glad you enjoyed the peaceful location and the ocean view. It means a lot to hear the house had everything you needed and that you felt comfortable. You’re right, it’s a nice spot to relax away from the crowds but still close to everything. I’d love to welcome you back anytime!
