Our family of 8 thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The home is beautiful, meticulously maintained, warm and inviting. The house layout is perfect for spending time together while also having plenty of room to spread out. The game room in the basement and the backyard sledding were big hits for all ages. The homeowner & caretaker are terrific and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend this property and we hope to be back.

This is the first rental we've stayed in that had flat bottom cookware. The worked great on the cook-top. The stairs are tricky. I fell on them and am still nursing a sore shoulder.

This rental was one our best so far! The house is fantastic with lots of room for multiple families. Check-in was easy, the kitchen is well equipped and the entire place was very clean! The grounds are also quite impressive. From the firepit to the large deck and down the path to the river, it's a perfect place to play or relax. We will definitely keep this place on our list to stay again...maybe next time in the winter!

Family River Fun

Beautiful large home right on the Saco river. The house inside and out was loaded with things to do, i.e., tree fort, fishing, swimming, ping pong table, pool table, arcade, fire pit, huge deck , We brought our kayaks and large 12 person rubber raft and had a blast on the river. Also, for a day trip, 40 minutes to StoryLand. We will definitely return.

Incredible house and location

The post and beam house is INCREDIBLE and decorated to a tee. The location on the Saco was great for fishing and kayaking - and close to North Conway. We highly recommend this place for anyone looking to get away but still have plenty to do.

End of summer vacation

Had a wonderful week using the property as a springboard for kayaking, hiking and shopping. Enjoyed grilling on the deck, cooking indoors and roasting marshmallows and hotdogs at the oversized fire pit. Several fantastic nights for stargazing. Also enjoyed a couple quiet nights making use of the TV downstairs and game room.

About the host

Hosted by Linda

Host profile image
We built this home away from home to get away from our busy lives in CT and enjoy all of what 'Vacationland' has to offer. Relax and enjoy the beautiful outdoors of Maine. This house and property has truly been our labor of love. We are happy to share it with you!

Why they chose this property

We picked the sleepy town of Brownfield Maine to build our 3,000 square foot cottage because of the easy access to everything we might like to do including: the arts (music, local artists, craftsmen etc) including Stone Mountain arts Center. Hiking, biking, swimming, fishing, kayaking, and boating. Less then 1 hour to old Orchard Beach, or Freeport. Shopping and great restaurants of all types. Nearly (20) Ski resorts within an hour drive. Snowmobile and snowshoe trail access directly across the street.

Just about everything you would want to do from minutes to max 1 hour away.

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with the beautiful park like setting, to build our home. The ever changing Saco river is mesmerizing. We have the only peninsula on the river which we go to often and sit on our swing. It feels like a golden pond. Being so close to the river allows us to witness nature in all her beauty. To see turkeys, eagles, ducks, and deer. Are all part of the beauty of this place. A small piece of heaven.
