These people called me almost every night ..not about issues with cottage but other updates. Very hi maintenance i think....
Would rent to them again....
The view from the house was amazing. Cant beat the location. Mornings and evenings sitting out on the deck were so relaxing. Highly recommend this house if visiting Acadia area.
The house was clean and comfortable. The views were beautiful and sitting on the porch watching the seals and birds were very relaxing. Overall, great place to stay.

Specicically this guest told me something about the burners on the stove being dIrty. The kitchen was clean! I replaced 4 little metal dishes under the burners! Unfortunately they died about 6 months ago! Three times i asked her if she had any problems to let me know.....
The bathroom ceiling had no spider webs but i will have it painted next week as it could use it..no mildew either....
Actually we check about a hundred things during a turnover..i surprised something else wasnt missed.!!!!!
Great cottage to stay at. The ability to wake up to experience the cove and comfort of this location was simply amazing. I would recommend this location to anyone who wants to explore Acadia National Park.

We absolutely loved this home. It was spacious - even bigger than it appears in the photos. The landlord was extremely responsive and helpful. The location is amazing - with several outdoor seating areas. It is so close to the ocean you feel you are aboard a boat when it is high tide. You can walk onto the beach from the house, through the yard, in about 30 seconds. Highly. recommend!

My husband and I have always wanted to enjoy Maine in the fall. We couldn’t have been happier with the property and its location. It was perfect for the two of us and the view from the deck was gorgeous!! We would definitely stay again and highly recommend. Judy was a wonderful hostess as well.
The cottage was exactly as posted, more beautiful in person. Clean and adequately stocked.
Judy was an Excellent host, she checked in on us to see if we needed anything, very friendly and offered suggestions for our stay.
I definitely recommend this place.
The deck has the most gorgeous view of bay. Got to see some wildlife right from the deck. It in a great location not too far from a national park. I got to say it’s one of the best places I’ve stayed in the last three years I’ve been renting.

The property was as advertised - a beautiful place on the bay near Acadia National Park. The views were amazing, and sitting on the deck overlooking it all was fabulous. We made good use of the kitchen and laundry facilities while we were there, and the beds were comfortable. Judy was very communicative and easy to work with. We would stay here again!

This is a lovely cottage with spectacular views! The house is older and some furnishings are dated but comfortable with truly beautiful views. The night sky was thrilling; it's been a while since I saw the milky way with such clarity!

Thanks Kathryn..... I'm so glad you enjoyed my place.....
Actually the dated furniture are antiques, Hitchock chairs, the harvest table, the chippandale sofa and loveseat set, the oriental rugs. It's hard to update character!
