Our family had a wonderful time in this house. It was spacious with a wonderful kitchen, living room and dining room area. There were lots of windows and the upper and lower deck with a wonderful hot tub on the lower deck. The grounds outside were beautiful with several hammocks and a very short walk down to the water. Lusty’s lobster down the street is an added bonus for wonderful seafood. The owner is an excellent communicator and responds promptly to requests. This place is a real find and we would love to come back.

Awesome get away!

My family picked this place for a reunion, it has everything we needed for an adventure away. We kayaked in the bay, hung out in the cabin, the location was perfect for hiking or to get to Portland. Wouldn't change a thing! The owner was super helpful with scheduling, great with communication.

Fantastic!!

This is a wonderful place and Bonnie was a lovely and helpful host. The house is comfortable and well-appointed with so many thoughtful touches. The view from the dining room and deck is beautiful. The hot tub, kayaks, and theater room made the stay even more terrific. The location is great. Very private and a short walk to a fantastic seafood place on the water. The main house and boat house easily accommodated our family of eight. Highly recommend this place for your vacation!

This house is described perfectly for you in the listing. It has a well stocked kitchen for cooking the lobsters and steamers you get down the road. If you love lobster this is your house!! BCM is a 5 minute walk for fresh lobster, oysters, and steamers.Extremely comfortable house, plenty of space to stretch out and relax. Quiet, private and safe neighborhood. Wonderful host who communicated quickly. Would rent again !

Best vacation ever!

This is an absolutely amazing house! It is spacious and bright, the kitchen is modern with every piece of equipment you could ever want to use, two decks that are comfortably furnished, a great hot tub, kayaks, a downstairs movie screening room….and a fabulous view of the water! The owner is great about communicating, very helpful and always willing to be of assistance! (And let’s not even talk about the great lobster shack restaurant right down the road!) Already can’t wait till next year!

Beautiful Retreat

The Plosser family had several "firsts" this trip; canoeing, kayaking for some, playing pool & ping pong for some (crazy I know but some people don't get out much!:). We visited New Harbor, Wiscassett, Boothbay Harbor, Morses sauerkraut, Montsweag flea market, North of the Border, Round Pond, and many other places. What a beautiful retreat for our clan.

Beyond our expectations, we had the trip of a lifetime, we kayaked, shopped, ate incredible seafood (shucked cleaned and fried whole belly clams. NEVER DOING THAT AGAIN) Picked apples, and for anyone looking to try some different, we brought a small video projector with us and had a 15 ft screen delivered from Amazon. We watched movies under the stars two nights. Cost of bringing the screen back home was 45 for an extra checked bag.We will never forget this trip. Property has all the comforts of home. I’ve stayed at several VRBO properties and this was definitely my favorite by far. Also, if you are a history buff there are several old cemeteries to explore close by

Annual 3-Gen family gathering

Wonderful time spent in mid-coast Maine at the Bremen House. Bonnie is a fabulous host, providing everything needed for a spectacular time. House accommodated our 7 adults, two children perfectly well with the boat house. The hot tub and kayaks were used on a daily basis. The spacious layout gave us time together, yet time apart when desired. The two hammocks were great spots to enjoy morning coffee and afternoon reads. The fire pit provided a spot for nighttime gatherings. The location of The Bremen House couldn’t be better. Just walk down the street for fresh lobstah, oysters, clams and scallops at the BYO Broad Cove Marine. Also convenient to a wide variety of shops in Damariscotta and Waldoboro. Permaquid Point is also a great place to visit. We took a one-day trip to Acadia and got back before dark. Plenty of local hiking trails around the area. No need to look any further than The Bremen House if it has the number of bedrooms you need.

Great place. Bonnie was great to work with. Didn’t have any issues but I felt if I did I know they would be resolved. Family loved the boathouse as we were able to separate the older adults from the younger ones. Location is beautiful and peaceful. Well stocked house for all needs. Highly recommend!

A great fall getaway!

We stayed with friends for a week while we check edin on our home renovation happening nearby -- it was the perfect spot not only as a home base but for some rest and relaxation at the same time. Beautiful views and sunrises, lobster fresh off the dock down the road, great kitchen for cooking in the off-season, comfortable bedrooms and space for us to read and relax. Lovely walks up and down the road with views of working harbor and islands beyond. Highly recommend!

Restored, Renewed, Refreshed

Bonnie's oceanfront home is beyond amazing. Completely surround in natural beauty and the view from the master bedroom is stunning. Each morning brought a different view; crystal clear bright sun, moody fog, still calm rain - all of which were amazing. The home was exactly as the post describes and more. The kitchen is very well appointed. The bedrooms are comfortable and light-filled. It was a perfect getaway location for us with Damariscotta only a 17 minutes car ride into town. The boat house is very nicely decorated and comfortable. Our family came into visit for a few days and loved staying there. I cannot say enough good things about this home. It's exceptional and we miss staying there already. Thank you, Bonnie, for everything.

Wonderful Property

Bonnie’s house was a welcoming port in a storm. Very clean, comfortable, great views, and a theatre in the basement. Everything is provided to get off the map for a while, while still being 15-20 min from Damariscotta for amenities. Very happy with my booking and prompt correspondence with the owner.
