The property is absolutely breathtaking. The photos of the location on the listing do it no justice. The house was clean and well stocked for long stays. One floor living for those with mobility issues was a big reason we chose this place and it delivered over and above expectations. I will definitely be recommending this rental home and will likely return!

Fabulous location. View of the bay from almost every room in the house. Sunsets ate amazing. Plan to relax and enjoy quiet time, the way Maine should be. This place is not fancy, but has everything thing you need to enjoy family time and family meals. We hope to return again soon. About 45 mins from Acadia.

This property was beautiful and had everything we needed for our first family trip to Maine. We especially loved fishing! It was super clean and the extra house added extra space for our family so we could all have beds. We cannot wait to come back! We felt like we were living in the 1950's with the rustic cottage that was so charming.

If you are dreaming of a quiet cottage right on the water, this is the place. Quaint and comfortable, it's the perfect place to spend time with the family - watching sunrises, taking walks, and playing games around the dinner table. We had a wonderful time!

A true summer cottage home in Maine. Once we got past the initial shock of what that means, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The cottage has stunning views of Frenchman’s bay with lots of wildlife and the best sunsets of our trip. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need. If you don’t see it, keep looking. It’s there!

We enjoyed our stay & appreciated the historic nature of the property & would like to know more. Some of our group of 6 have mobility issues & the stairs in the house presented difficulties! The view of water & trees & eagles was priceless. This is a summer cottage & we were not prepared for the suddenly cool fall temps with only first floor fireplace heat. The supply of blankets did help.

The views at this property were absolutely the best part of the stay! The place matched the listing description perfectly. While there are two bathrooms, keep in mind there is only one shower to share. Overall, it was a great experience, and I learned a lot from this booking to help me plan future trips!

This is a very special place that deserves more than 5 stars. It feels loved and enjoyed by generations of a family (there's even a stick in the dining room marking the heights of the growing kids). Every room in the house is comfortable and most have new windows to open and let in the ocean breezes and sounds. The kitchen is well-stocked (seasonings, oils, etc), equipped and is a pleasure to work in. Unlike many places we have stayed, the well water tastes good and doesn't need a filter.It was quiet and peaceful when we were there the week before Labor Day and early mornings were spent with coffee on the porch watching seals, harbor porpoises and the many birds.If you have fond memories of visiting your grandparents cottage with the banging screen door, this is the place for you.Susan, the host, was so helpful and answered our questions very quickly. We will definitely be back!

The cottage couldn't be in a more beautiful location, we watched seals and otters every morning from the shore while drinking coffee. The cottage is dated but that only added to the charm. We loved our stay.
