Kathleen is an incredibly thoughtful and gracious host. From coffee and oatmeal on the kitchen counter to a tea pot filled with water upon our late night arrival, Kathleen had thoughtful touches throughout. The kitchen was well equipped, towels were plentiful, and we even had a fun visit with the animals.

Cozy and inviting! Kathleen was very responsive and made us feel very welcome. She was kind enough to let us meet her sweet animals. The jacuzzi tub was an added bonus— the water got nice and hot like I like and the red light made me feel like I was at a spa. Would definitely book again!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that the owner takes great pride in maintaining it. Everything was exceptionally clean, well-organized, and welcoming, which made us feel right at home.The location was peaceful and quiet, providing the perfect place to relax and unwind after long days on the water. Check-in was simple and seamless, and the entire stay was completely stress-free.One thing that was especially important to us was having room for our bass boat, and this property worked out perfectly. The access, parking, and overall setup made it easy to come and go each day without any concerns.We have stayed at many vacation rentals over the years, and this was one of those places that simply felt comfortable from the start. We truly appreciated our time here and would not hesitate to stay again the next time we're in the area. Thank you for providing such a wonderful place to enjoy our Maine fishing trip.

The farmhouse was clean and charming. The kitchen was well-stocked. Kathleen was an excellent communicator. She went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable— including making a bonfire for smores! We loved getting to be with her sweet kitties and amazing donkeys, mule, and horse.

A great 1st exerience with Vrbo

The property we rented was as advertised - 3 bedrooms and a 10-minute drive from Colby College, where we attended our college reunion. The house was older but had modern appliances, 2 bathrooms, a washer and dryer. The home is on a farm with horses and a mule on the premises, which we enjoyed. The owner lives in an addition attached to the home. She was most engaging and attentive to our questions and needs. The only drawback for senior citizens like us is that the stairs going up to the 2nd-floor bedrooms are steep, making it somewhat difficult to carry our luggage upstairs.Overall, a very positive experience for us.

About the host

Host profile image

I enjoy meeting new people and sharing my home with them. There is something special about this place and I hope those who stay will feel a bit of the magic that I do each and every time I walk through the doors.

Why they chose this property

I have the best of both worlds here. Close to so many amenities yet being on the 9 acres that abuts to a couple hundred acres of woods and fields, it’s a little slice of heaven to me.

What makes this property unique

The history of the house and farm. The original house was built in the 1800’s and they built the adjoining unit in the early 1900’s. The barn, built in the 1700’s, used to house cattle. It needs some tlc but the original wood beams are still intact, which just adds to the charm of the farm
