This was an incredible property and the hosts were even better. Just fantastic. It felt like being home from the first steps into the property. Recommend on all fronts!
The house was as advertised. Incredible view on the back deck and out the kitchen windows. The owners also provided one of the most well-provisioned kitchens we’ve ever had in a VRBO, which we very much appreciated! We loved our time here!

So glad you enjoyed Ocean View Hideaway!
Would love to have you return!
One of the reasons I chose this property is because it had 4 bedrooms and a bunkroom ideal for 4 couples and 2 kids. It was very well stocked with everyday neccessities. My 1st impression was how beautiful the property was. The multilevel floor plan allowed the adults to play cards in the lower level without waking the little ones,

So thrilled you enjoyed your vacation here! Thank you for the wonderful review! Here's hoping you all will return!🌸
This was honestly one of (if not the) best houses I’ve ever rented. We stayed for 5 nights. Jill (host) was awesome and super responsive & thoughtful. Amazingly clean home and beautiful yard. Tons of thoughtful touches- like a fridge stocked with drinks and a welcome coffee cake. Tons of towels, stocked toiletries, etc. such a great stay for our whole family. Thank you!

We were pleasantly surprised that the property was even better than the photos showed. From the moment we drove down the tree lined driveway to the house sitting right on the coast we fell in love with the place. The owners were very helpful and accommodating and the location absolutely cannot be beat.

Dear Doug,
Thank you for the lovely review! Hoping you and your family can return in the future! All the best!
What a wonderful family vacation. The house and property are exactly as described and even prettier in person. Jill was so helpful and gracious. The fridge was stocked with beverages and some delicious coffee cakes which were much appreciated after a long couple days of travel. Our family had a fantastic time enjoying the views, climbing the rocks, and visiting the surrounding area for hikes, great meals and lasting memories.

Thank you for this wonderful review that really paints a visual picture of the natural beauty here. We’re so glad you enjoyed the house and hope you will return in the future!
We have stayed in places all over the world and the hosts for this place were the best. The house was stocked with anything you could possibly need and the hosts left a wonderful welcoming gift. It was extremely clean and the views from the back deck are like something you see on a postcard. We saw harbor seals, bald eagles, and various other animals from the deck.If you want to enjoy the beauty of Maine, this is the place.

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay! Please tell your daughter, the last couple days we have spotted Clifford and George peering through binoculars, eagerly waiting for her and the rest of your family to return! All the best!
The house and grounds are even better than the pictures show. The house had plenty of room for our party of 8. We have stayed at many VRBO's and these hosts have the kindest and most accomodating we have had so far. Thanks!

This VRBO experience was great. The house is well equipped and contained everything we needed. Lots of linens and towels and very comfortable beds. Our group of 9 never felt crowded, with so many different places to be, both indoors and outside. Highly recommended!

Jill was fantastic in preparing us for our visit and supporting us as I asked many questions about the property and the area. The home is comfortable and versatile. We cooked, we grilled, we enjoyed time together in and out of the house. A great vacation home.
