Thanks for the review. We're happy that you had a comfortable stay. We've always thought a queen-sized bed would be nice as well but it just won't fit into the room!!
We stayed in the home for a couple nights while visiting family in the area. Had a wonderful time - house was clean and perfect location, safe and quiet area. Some traffic noise as next to major road, but enjoyed our stay and highly recommend.

We're so glad you enjoyed your stay, Pam. Thank you for booking with us!
We enjoyed our visit with our son, who lives in Presque Isle. Your home in Caribou was comfortable and conveniently close to PI and the beautiful surrounding area. Thank you!
We really enjoyed the stay, we mainly used the rental for a place to sleep and have breakfast, it was very nice, the only suggestion would be to place a larger bed in the master bedroom.

Due to the need to meet building codes for egress, which our style of windows does provide, air conditioning units do not fit in those upstairs windows. We hope you found some relief from the fans we provided. This has been an unusually hot and humid summer in northern Maine but thankfully most summers barely require any a/c.
We loved staying in the home in Caribou. It had everything we needed and more. James and Ellen were very kind and caring. We had a great visit with our family. Everything we needed was close by. We hope to return.

We had a great experience with this property in Caribou Maine. It was very clean and spacious. I have nothing to complain about with this place or the property manager. The property manager was very friendly and helpful with everything we needed. I would definitely stay there again.

We also love how spacious this home is and we're glad you could easily fit an air mattress and a pack'n'play in to accommodate your large family. Children are such a blessing! Please come back anytime.
Very homey. Lots of extras you would not expect. Hosts very accommodating with requests. Would definitely recommend to others and will book again on future visits to Caribou!
Our little group, which consisted of my father, my mother, my fiancé and myself, all had a delightful day in Caribou thanks to James and Ellen. The house was spacious enough to host my daughter and her family for breakfast, lunch, and dinner every single day that we were there. James and Ellen were very responsive and were able to accommodate our late check out due to a change in flight times. We have definitely bookmarked this property for our next visit to Caribou.
