Best stay
We loved our 2 night stay at this studio. The studio was clean especially the bathroom! We are very particular about bathrooms so this is a five star! :) we had a relaxing stay just by looking at the pond and before we go I got to enjoy the swing there while looking at nature. If we ever go back to Maine, will definitely book this again.

Herman Pond is a beautiful, relaxing location for enjoying nature and all the Bangor area has to offer. Sonia is a wonderful host, and the garage apartment was just right for my husband and me.

Great vacation
We really enjoyed our time at Hermon Pond. Early morning coffee by the water and kayaking later in the day. Sonya was a great host and the apartment was splendid. You could hear the loons and mallards through the window.

Perfect Maine Getaway Spot!
We had a delightful stay in this charming, perfectly appointed studio. The location was a good launching point for getting to Baxter State Park as well as Bar Harbor. When we weren’t out and about, we appreciated the total privacy and the gorgeous, peaceful pondside location. We were delighted by the little details left for guests. Sonya is easily the best VRBO host we’ve had yet.

Paradise
Staying at Hermon Pond at Sonya's place was a wonderful experience. She is very welcoming and considerate. The apartment was perfect for 2 people and the view was spectacular. We will definitely go back to this location when we come to Maine again. It was just like being at home. Sonya had the kitchen supplied with coffee and even a bouquet of flowers on the table. ***************

Gorgeous property
Perfect example of a true maine experience! The house and yard are beautiful and in a really nice quiet neighborhood. The host gave a warm and lovely hello then we didn’t see anybody again the rest of our stay. Over looks the water inside and out. We are already planning our next trip there. Thanks so much sonya!

The studio apartment was very clean and in a beautiful location overlooking the lake. The beds mattress could have been of higher quality. However this is not enough to turn me away from renting this place again.

Sonja’s place was super clean, really really quiet, and quaint. we could see lots of stars at night in her remote location. She was very helpful in making recommendations of places to see in the area. We had our own private entrance, and the check in/out process was super easy. Great place to stay.

The perfect getaway!
Not sure what more you can ask for in a rental - the studio was clean, cozy, and well equipped, the firepit and views over the pond were phenomenal, the location is great, and Sonya is the kindest host who made the whole process so smooth and effortless. Thanks for having us Sonya, we already can’t wait to go back :)

It was even more beautiful than we expected. The host Sonya was so friendly and helpful. I think my sitting by the lake in the mornings and evenings recharged my spirits. Loved the quiet and wildlife available to watch and enjoy.Very close to Bangor.

Highly recommended: Exceeded our expectations in every respect
This is a very clean, quaint and well-appointed studio on the shore of a small and very quiet lake. One thing I did not see elsewhere in the comments, is that in addition to being a very picturesque lake, the swimming is excellent. We enjoyed our stay in every respect, and very much hope to have the opportunity to return.

We are so glad that we found this property! The studio is cozy, quiet, and, peaceful. As a surprise bonus, we could watch the sunset over Hermon Pond right outside. The host was great and made sure we had everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again, and would recommend you did as well.
