Extremely thoughtful host. He thinks of everything and has it ready. A comfortable and cozy home away from home. It was a perfect tiny house. Fabulous view and clean and large shower. I inquired about the famous Maine midges and he thoughtfully made a point of greeting us when we arrived and brought a variety of repellents for me to use. It was a very convenient location to explore all over the beautiful area. He was easy to reach with any questions. I can’t say enough good things.

Quintessential Maine Getaway
We had a wonderful time at the Riverhouse. Dan was a great host. The property is gorgeous and is nicely located between acadia/mid-coast Maine and cities like Portland or Bangor

Great location - good for two
The River House was in the perfect location for us. We were able to get to Acadia, Ellsworth, Blue Hill, Deer Isle and Castine. The house is good for two or three with a lovely view. Everything we needed was provided and Dan was very helpful. The price was a good deal.

Riverhouse
Lovely house with nice touches. Plenty to see on the peninsula—Castine, Deer Isle, Stonington, Blue Hill to name a few of the beautiful spots. Dan, the host, had some excellent suggestions for local restaurants, too.

a very lovely place
It was a very quiet and relaxing stay in a lovely house in a beautyful countryside.
The host welcomed us warmly and gave us some very valuable tips.
If you are searching for a calm and relaxing place, this is the right one for you.
There are nice places to visit: Acadia National Park - about 1 h by car; Castine (15 min );Hothole valley (north and south entry - about 20 min. ; Deer island (about 40 min)).
Thank You Dan for the nice stay!

Lovely Riverhouse Retreat
Dan is a top- notch host. He’s easy to communicate with, flexible, and super friendly. The house feels like an Irish B&B in its decor. Very comfortable! Highlight is sitting on the deck, overlooking the meadow toward parts of the Penobscot River in the distance. Frequent visits from a pair of bluebirds was a special treat.

Off the beaten path
It was a cute cottage. No air conditioning upstairs made it a little uncomfortable during a high humidity week. Furniture waa a bit too used and worn. It was a good location for traveling to lighthouses in Mid Maine. We had a great time finding lighthouses and eating lobster ar Glenn's Restaurant.

Charming house
We really enjoyed our stay in this rental. Dan responds quickly to questions and is pleasant to work with. Everything you need is at this rental: the kitchen is fully stocked, there's a room AC on the 1st floor and large fans on the 2nd floor, and the linens and towels are provided. It's a 45 min. drive to Acadia, and there are many quaint harbor towns in driving distance.

Absolutely Amazing
This was the perfect place! The house was beautiful and right on the water with a private beach just down a walking path! It's about 45 minutes from all the main attractions which was perfect for us because we didn't want in the hussle and bussle, we wanted that relaxing and true vacation feeling which is what you will get when you stay here. Dan was pneoumonial and was there to welcome us when we arrived to ensure we had everything we needed. Will definitely be back and will work with Dan!!

Nice house near bay/river shore
The house is very nice & well kept with a nice view of the Orland River valley. It’s about 12 minutes from Castine, 12 minutes from Bucksport, & 1 hour from Bar Harbor. It’s a short walk on their property to the shore of the Orland River. There are several fishing/tourist towns to visit within a hour (Searsport, Belfast, Lincolnville, Camden, Rockland, Blue Hill, Ellsworth, Trenton, Bar Harbor, & others). There are many lakes nearby too. Dan is very nice & informative too.

Perfect Home, Perfect Host
It has been our STR experience that sites that are individually owned and locally managed provide the most enjoyable stays. Dan Brooks is the perfect example. The Riverhouse is everything it is represented to be: well-located for exploration of the region, delightfully and thoughtfully furnished, and, in a word, charming. Dan is an involved veteran host who, from prior to arrival to departure, is there to ensure that your visit is completely what you anticipate and more. His experience and pride in his native area are boundless and Dan shares his knowledge joyfully. The title says it all: Perfect Home, Perfect Host.

First Trip to Maine
The Riverhouse was the perfect cottage for our first trip to Maine. It gave us the country cottage feel while being close enough to the grocery, restaurants and things to do.
Our host, Dan, was absolutely amazing!! He contacted us several times to make sure we had the correct directions to the cottage and to make us aware about changes in the weather. Due to travel delays, we were VERY late arriving but he had the light on for us. He met me the next morning to go over any questions we had and to share with us the history of the area and the house. Dan is a true "inn keeper" sharing his love of the area, the history and making sure his guests have a memorable vacation.

Quaint house near Castine and on the Penobscot River
We enjoyed our stay at the Riverhouse. Dan was a gracious host who met us for checkin and checkout. He recommended restaurants and things to see and do.
The bedrooms are upstairs and it was quite warm during our stay, so that was the only drawback. Dan had fans for the bedrooms which helped and opening the windows allowed a breeze at night. The air conditioning is a window unit.
We walked down the hill and through the woods to the Penobscot River and enjoyed looking for shells several times. One evening, we startled a deer who was relaxing in the woods.
Castine is a cool town and Penobscot Narrows Bridge and Observatory/Fort Knox is definitely worth a visit. Acadia was about an hour away and overcrowded since it was the summer, which meant getting back to the Riverhouse took 100+ minutes in the evening.

Cute House
Dan was super pleasant and friendly. House is cute, but dated; clean, but not squeaky clean. Recliners are worn and uncomfortable, towels are old, and shower curtain liner needs replacing. The weather was perfect for opening the upstairs windows at night, and having access to the internet is a plus. The location suited our needs and we would stay again.

Nice house
We stayed at the River House last week, and had perfect weather for our first trip to Maine. The house is centrally located for near by attentions. It was a 45 minute drive to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. Fort Knox is close by. Dan met us shortly after we arrived and gave us a run down on the house and surrounding area, that was very helpful to us. We recommend this rental, and will be returning again. Thank you Dan !

Nice view of the river!
The house had a nice view of the river and we were able to walk down to it. Dan was wonderful host and enjoyed sharing information. The refrigerator and oven were not very clean and the table on the deck was not usable. The house is close to a busy road. The new grill was awesome! We enjoyed our stay!

オーナー : Dan Brooks
I am originally from Orland (two houses away) and am now living back in Orland in my ancestral property. I am now retired from the corporate world and spend my time working on the property, as well as my Bangor home.
この宿泊施設のオーナーになった理由
I grew up 2 houses away and delivered papers to the owners as a kid. When the property became available, I knew I wanted it! Since the house needed 'everything', I decided to gut it to the shell and start over -- thus the pics display the finished product.
