We always love being in this charming home. It is well laid out for our family to both spread out and come together as needed. The view of the river is spectacular and always a treat to watch the ice beginning its spring melt. We especially love how easy it is to walk to Maine Street for coffee, groceries, bagels, donuts, gifts, etc.

Beautiful home on the river with lovely deck, great living and kitchen spaces and easy walking access to the town of Brunswick and the Bowdoin College campus. We just stayed here for 5 nights with Family for graduation and it couldn’t have been any better. This property is one of the best rental properties I have ever stayed in anywhere and Jesse is extremely responsive, communicative, and helpful. I can’t recommend this property highly enough. Beautiful views, great bedrooms, has AC and fans, beautiful kitchen with a big island. This is my second stay here and I couldn’t wait to come back.

About the host

Hosted by Jessie

Host profile image
Hi! I am a Brunswick native, a hair stylist, wife to a full-time fire fighter, and mother to a teenager. I love Maine, the outdoors, food, and crafting. I have managed this amazing property for a family member and I’m excited to share it with you!

Why they chose this property

My father built Castle Rock with his bare hands for a family member. The cabinets were custom built with wood harvested from the prior building on the lot. Pictures do not this property justice, but we hope you make as many memories here as my family has!

What makes this property unique

I especially love how quiet and serene the back deck and yard are, while having great proximity to Downtown Brunswick and towns beyond. There is nothing like sitting on the deck with a cup of coffee and watching eagles soar above and fish jump below.
