My family and I decided on a Maine get-away, at the last minute. The property owner was prompt and ever so helpful in responding. This allowed our family to make a quick informed decision to visit Maine, Down-East Maine. The owner was helpful with information on the area and ideas for pre-planning.
Then.... we arrive at Roque Bluffs. Soul"filling" is the best to describe the property and location of Mack Cove - Roque Bluffs. The house has flawless views of the cove, ocean, nature and sunlight. It is a perfect place to reconnect with self and nature. The property sits on a bluff with access to a cove with a private classic Maine beach. The tidal differences are forever fun and allowed hours of rock skipping and climbing for our children. Low or high tide great for launching Stand-up Paddle board or kayak. We visited with average temperatures of 72 degrees and kids were able to wade in water. Roque Bluff State Park located very near and is a great sandy beach with a pond across the street.
The House .... It has EVERYTHING needed to make a families stay even better than home. Kitchen fully stocked with cooking and baking supplies, appliances new and nice. The beauty of the home, the interior design, the paintings, furniture, bedding and natural charm made this home the best vacation for our family EVER. The master bedroom is out of a coastal living magazine and on a rainy day makes for a perfect , "never get out of bed moment" with breathtaking views sun up to sun down. The loft was most fun for the boys with twin beds and cabin type feel! Unlike many private properties, the owners made us feel like family versus a business. The home, reflected their care and warm charm. Decks around the home allow sunrise and sunset views. Large dining table for family dinners. We didn't want to leave.
Specifics: Our family consists of (6), 3 teens and one elementary age child. This home was more than accommodating for all our needs. Although we wanted an escape from the crazy life, we appreciated the internet & cable for the teens. However, it was rarely accessed !
Thanks beyond words to the owners of this property. Their care in providing a "family" home for some many was met & we are grateful for our time at Mack Cove. This will definitely be a return visit annually and more if able!
