WOW. I feel so fortunate to have stayed at this gorgeous property on the Maine coast. My family and I were traveling from California, and I wasn’t sure what to expect. This location exceeded my expectations in every way. Such a fantastic location with the beach just steps away. At low tide, we walked for miles along the shore. The house is beautifully decorated and had everything we needed for cooking, bathing, and enjoying the outdoors. We kayaked, built a fire in the outdoor fire pit, hung the hammocks in the hall closet, and enjoyed the property in every way. My mom, my sister, and I found ourselves up at dawn (5 am this time of year!) just we could soak up every moment (my husband and kids slept a little longer…) My daughters also enjoyed having their own private “wing” in the house. This home is very family friendly and had a number of amenities for children. We also enjoyed the local businesses in Brooklin- don’t miss the candy shop! Being from out of town, I wasn’t sure how remote this place would be. While it felt very private and “away from it all”, the grocery store and other necessities were an easy drive away. We also had cell phone reception, which was a pleasant surprise. One word of caution: the stairs are quite steep- watch your step!
