Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The place was spacious and in a convenient location. Had all the amenities one could need. Close enough to town to walk in for a coffee or smoothie and a short drive to Portland for more activities and dining experiences. A great place to stay with some friends or a large family.

Maine vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location to all of our Maine activities- biking, hiking, golf and fall apple picking. Would suggest investing in new pots and pans as the non stick variety provided are scratched and surfaces are considered a health hazard by industry. That was the reason for the 3 rating.

Prompt reply from the host when the air dryer goes missing from the last customers. One of the AC stopped working but thankfully there was another one and the temperature was cool. Some things need to be improved including the cleanliness of the sheets, safety of the property, such as random nails sticking out on the wall near the bed, slippery rug when standing up from the sofa, and doors that don’t close at all. Very great location and amenity otherwise.

Thank you Chrisite. We try to be as responsive as possible -- as in the case of the missing hairdryer. ALL linens are cleaned fully before each guest. happy to hear the location and amenities were good and ac worked well for you. Random nail? Slippery rug? I will look into those things. Two stars seems a little rough....we will take all your feedback into consideration.

Overall the property was fantastic. It was on a nice, quiet little side street in a small town but so centrally located whether we went North or South. It was clean, comfortable beds and having air conditioning was a great thing for when we were there. We did have some issues on arrival, our code didn't work, but Liz was a fantastic help to get us in. We also learned halfway through our trip that the side door deadbolt didn't actually notch, so the house wasn't actually safely locked, but again we were in a very nice area. At some point it was apparently fixed although we weren't notified anyone was coming or made entry to the house. We were apparently the first guests of the season so we didn't have wifi as the cable was gone, but again it was promptly fixed.

Our first time to the area. Updated house in a quiet neighborhood and city just outside Portland. 20 minute drive or Uber into downtown Portland. The house was clean and easily accommodated 6 adults. We also enjoyed the outside sitting area with the fire pit.

LOL! I love it! I am glad you liked the house and location, Lynn. We enjoyed having you stay with us. No, we do not typically supply those items, but I bet the next guest will really appreciate it! We supply starter supplies of shampoo, conditioner, paper towels, dishwasher detergent, soaps, trash bags, etc. We provide everything you come to expect from a fine hotel, and then some. I hope you stay with us again! Thanks for the nice review and the goodwill to next guests!

We loved our stay! Family gathering where we could all be together. Great bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen and outdoor space. We could have used a bigger table to eat at and a larger common area but perfect for 4-5 people.

Home away from home

We had such a lovely time in Yarmouth. We had enough space that we could spread out and the kids didn’t have to be on top of each other, plenty of amenities and even some reading material for those who forgot to pack some! We enjoyed sitting on the patio enjoying a glass of wine by the fire pit. Would definitely recommend a visit.

Great stay

The property was in a great location easy to walk to Main st for food and a few cute shops and in a very safe feeling neighborhood. The house was very clean with comfortable beds and cute decor. The outside space was very relaxing with Adirondack chairs and gas fire pit. The communication with the property manager was easy and responses were quick. Overall wonderful experience!
