What a beautiful house with great river views and all the creature comforts one could want. Incredibly thoughtful host, from offering to turn on lights in case we arrived late, to putting out dog bowls filled with water for the pup, to a lovely welcome basket and vase of flowers. Everything was just perfect. Thanks so much!

Summer Stay

Our stay at the River House was truly perfect. We had visits from owls every night, had scavenger hunts in the wooded paths, lounged for hours on the dock and jumped in the river. It was also close enough to explore Acadia National Park and the neighboring cities. The house was beautiful and clean and Sue, the host, was great!

A charming house in a very quiet, secluded area but still only 15 minutes from shopping and restaurants. The house was clean and very well appointed. The welcome basket with local treats and snacks was a nice touch. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the River House and will definitely return.

Life at the River House

The River House was a great place to stay and everything we could hope for. The view of the river was awesome and the hosts were terrific! They asked us over for a BBQ and boat ride which was great and there immediate response to our questions was fantastic! The central location in Maine gave us easy access to awesome hikes in Baxter, Acadia, state parks, and other places. Bangor is just a very short drive away. We would definitely stay here again.

Tranquil Place

This place is perfect for relaxing and enjoying nature. The house is right on the river on a dead-end street, so it is very quiet. We enjoyed sitting by the river and watch boaters go by. The house has enough space for 5 people to spread around. It's clean and the kitchen is stocked with all the necessities to make meals. Our hosts greeted us with a basket of delicious Maine treats. They were friendly and offered us a boat ride which was a special treat. We would definitely stay here again since it's perfectly located to see other places.

Relaxing on the River

Our stay at the River House was fabulous. Sue and Joe were helpful and accommodating. Joe taught my husband how to fish which he enjoyed immensely. The house was perfect for the whole family. The upper level is comfortable, the perfect space to relax and watch the river. The lower level is quiet with enough separation between rooms for everyone to have privacy. The location is quiet and peaceful but close to shops and restaurants. My favorite spot on the property was the cliff overlooking the river. Great for morning coffee!

Tranquil Gem

The Riverhouse was the perfect location for our vacation. The house is beautifully furnished with all amenities a home needs to be comfortable. And from the moment of our arrival we felt welcome and at home here. The view of the Penabscot River and surrounding area is spectacular and the location was perfect for romantic walks and sitting with my family around a fire in the evening. The nearby dock and our wonderful host helped feed our son’s newly found fishing habit. It’s close enough to town to grab supplies or a coffee from Dunkin but secluded enough to feel like you’re away from it all. I have recommended this property to a close friend and my family is already planning another visit
hopefully in the fall. I bet it’s stunning.

Summer Vacation

Gorgeous, very unique property. Very quiet, felt as we were in the backwoods to northern Maine (with all the comforts of home) and still being 10 minutes from downtown Bangor!. Was an easy hour drive to Acadia NP and MDI. Was visited a few nights by several Barred Owls as we enjoyed the campfire. They landed on the tree right outside the house! We also observed a large Bald Eagle that landed during breakfast one morning on a tree overlooking the river 100 feet from the house. As a family we enjoyed the beach area and the kayaks at low tide. Amazed on the tide range. The house was very clean and inviting. The kitchen had everything we needed. Loved the separate pantry area to store our food and essentials. Sue was wonderful to deal with from early on in the booking process with a reservation issue to giving us suggestions of things to do. Even letting us know of the large community yard sale that could cause traffic issues. Would have loved to stay longer . If we visit the area again we would definitely stay at The River House!

Secluded Paradise

We visited Maine last year for the first time and loved it so much, we had to include it in our travel plans again this year. We decided to stay a little longer and bring our dog this time, and found this lovely gem in Orrington just south of Bangor. We were planning on using this as a home base from which to make day trips all over Maine, but we loved it so much, we only left once to go visit friends we made last year and twice to pick up groceries. On our last night here, we realized we hadn't been out to eat in the area, so we made a trip out for local fare. We also felt obligated...since we were there....to drive around Bangor and see what it was all about. That's a round-about way of saying we were so comfortable and satisfied with the house and its location along the river, that we never really got the itch to leave! Sue and Joe have thought of everything starting with all the fixings for pancakes our first morning there....which we managed to stretch out for our first three mornings! The house is completely round! It's really a ranch with a walk-out lower level. Kitchen, living, dining, and half bath upstairs and a wall of windows you wouldn't believe offering a panoramic view of the Penobscot River! We were mesmerized for hours. The lower level has THREE bedrooms (we only needed the one since it was just the two of us and our little dog) and two full baths AND a laundry room. There are a couple of seating areas up in the yard to watch the River tides roll in and out....or the bald eagles soar by or catch a fish! We got in the habit of sitting on the floating dock with our feet in the water at high tide. You can swim in the river or take out one of their kayaks available for use too. Sue and Joe were very accommodating and informative hosts. They have thought of everything. The kitchen is fully equipped, there are supplies for dogs and children. Soap, cleaning, and laundry supplies too. It has quality furniture and is beautifully and lovingly decorated. We felt right at home.

Unwind and take in the view:

Unique layout with all the windows and enjoyed looking out onto the river and surrounding trees. We were lucky to see 2 eagle sightings over the week in a tree right by river embankment. Kitchen was very well stocked for multiple types of cooking needs. Pet friendly property. Communication with owner was easy and found them very responsive to our questions/needs. On our arrival found the downstairs where beds are located to be very damp/musty and poor for sleeping. Informed owners the next day needed dehumidifiers and they had them up and running by mid day. Made huge difference within 24 hours. Every thing very clean but some furniture could probably stand to be replaced. The main couch seating has lost most of its support and the dining room chairs could be sturdier and maybe a little wider seat. We are an average weight couple and did not find them comfortable . We ate primarily at picnic table on the deck. Last is water access. You do have to go to the owners property right next door through a trail to make it down to water and area where kayaks are stored. Was a nice quiet secluded spot. Plenty to do in area and they also have a book full suggestions.

Om vÀrden

Sue Pate Àr vÀrd

VĂ€rdens profilbild
Joe and I love to share all that Maine has to offer...from woods to water... and all the history it has to tell. The River House is on the site of the ice storage barn of the Union Ice Company that operated in the late 1800s. Our home is next door to the River House. It served as the office and bunk house for the ice company. By purchasing the River House, we were able to bring together the original pieces Union Ice Company once again. We are proud to show this little piece of Maine history to the discerning public. Tucked in at the the bottom of a winding dirt road, you will experience the Maine history, landscape, wildlife and state of mind that we have always treasured. Won't you join us for a relaxing respite?

Varför vÀrden valde detta boende

The property is special... with its history and its future. Remnants of the old ice house remain to explore. Sit on shore and wonder what took place in the river during the Penobscot Expedition over 250 years ago? Or imagine what it was like to travel from Boston to Bangor on the steamship "Bangor" 100 years ago. The Penobscot is again a working river, with Cianbro using the port of Brewer to launch its steel frame modules to destinations in Texas... and cruise ships calling the port of Bangor home for the summer season.

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

The tranquil setting offers many opportunities to enjoy nature... from bird watching to fishing to kayaking and more... You'll always want to keep your camera handy, as you never know when the bald eagles will swoop by or the sturgeon may breach. Schools of alewives make their way upriver and a seal may visit. See the kingfishers dart along the water gathering their meals. The deer and fox follow the deer trail through the property. The frogs will serenade you in the evening... and the owl may herald the news of his latest catch. The serene surroundings lend themselves to reading, writing, painting and just thinking.
