House is an adorable farm house with beautiful property that has a trail that leads to a private beach. It has a lovely sunporch in the back of house that has a beautiful view of the ocean. Peter & Cindy are excellent welcoming hosts. Everything was very clean and well furnished with essentials. Lubec Maine & Campbello Island are about a half hour from the house as well as Jasper Beach which is a pebble beach.

Great stay in Downeast, Maine

We loved our stay at Katie Dove Beach Farm. We spent the days hiking the many coastal trails in the area and came home to lovely sunsets and walks on the beach. The farmhouse was well equipped, very clean, and the owners very willing to help with our needs. Excellent stay!

Gorgeous location, wonderful hosts!

We had a wonderful time at Peter and Cindy’s home. It was meticulously clean, the house functioned perfectly and was full of character. Excellent communication and super responsive hosts. It was also the best stocked kitchen I have ever used at a rental, which made me so happy as we love to cook! Thank you for a beautiful stay for our family!

Can't say enough good about this property or the owners. Peter and Cindy are fantastic. Great communication, made sure we had everything we needed (we did!). Beautifully maintained, quiet, clean property on 5 acres with a path to the beach. Great place to relax and unwind. Can't wait to go back.

Peaceful Respite

The Katie Dove Beach Farm is an incredibly special place. It was the perfect place for a homebase while exploring the trails and towns downeast. I'll definitely be back! So many details make the stay more than could have expected. Incredible bird life, fireflies, the epic tides. The home has a nicely equipped kitchen and the view from the porch and deck are so lovely. Thank you Peter and Cindy!

Perfect

The property is truely special. Amazing views, multiple spots to explore, culminating to a sandy private beach that is larger than a lot of public ones. The house itself is comfortable with its own personality that encourages you to slow down, read a book, look at the ocean, play some monopoly. It's a wonderful spot to spend time.

Incredible!

This property has everything we were looking for. Out in the country with no close neighbors. The property was very clean. Peter and Cindy stopped by to introduce themselves. They were very friendly. The best part was the views of Holmes Bay were wonderful when the fog was gone.

Total happiness

This house is very well maintained and furnished! The location, 2 steps from a private beach, is fantastic and the house itself is very enjoyable for a family of 6. The kids had a great time running through the grass labyrinth leading to the beach. The area is full of discoveries : sceneries, fishermen villages, delicacies, beaches, crafts, seafood, blueberries, etc. The owners are very nice and responsive. We had a great time!

Ultimate Downeast Maine Property

This is an absolutely amazing property. First and foremost, the property owner, Peter, is an amazing host. He ensured that we were comfortable and was quick to answer any questions that we had and make suggestions. Second, the location is perfect. You are literally an hour or less from all downeast Maine attractions. Third, the rental is immaculate and and well cared for. You will be comfortable after a long day of exploring. To sum it all up, this place is absolutely perfect if you are wanting to unplug and explore downeast Maine.

Everything you could want to relax

We had an absolutely wonderful experience here. The house was clean and comfortable and the owners were so thoughtful and accommodating to our family. We ended up getting in late and they turned the light on for us and came by the next day to give our kiddos beach toys (which were a huge hit). For a family to vacation, it can sometimes be a bit stressful, but I was happy to let the kids run around outside and just chill the rest of the time at the house and down by the beach. We commented as we left that it didn’t even feel like we needed a vacation from our vacation.

Down East Experience...

The hosts were extremely friendly and welcoming at Katy Dove Beach Farm providing easy directions, a history of the land and recommendations to a favorite hike not on the maps. Western Head Trail met our coastal hike imaginations, it was a stunning trail! We enjoyed the setting of the back porch with the view of the bay and found some comfort in this older farm. I’m certain Peter will have resolved the smell issue of water for his next arrival. Thank you for our down east experience Peter and Cindy.

Response from VrboOwner on 27 Jun 2023
Guests arrived late in the season where hot and cold water had not been used in a while. New hot water heaters are known to contribute also. Guests were great but they were only here for a couple nights and the weather was abnormally cloudy for this time of year. This may have contributed to the three star rating.?
