This is such a beautiful historic home! The location is great. The views are superb. It really feels that you are staying in a family HOME and not a generic rental. We absolutely loved it.

What an amazing time for our staff and friends. From sitting on that amazing porch at 5:30 am to watch the sun rise to trying to remember which shelf in that amazing icebox we put the creamer or hanging out by the fire in the living room - we all felt like royalty (only without the servants - next time!!).

Wonderful Stay

We stayed with our extended family of 9 people and Suzanne’s house was absolutely perfect for us! Everything was clean, the beds were comfortable and the kitchen stocked better than mine at home! The house itself is spectacular. The enormous porch overlooking the bay was one of the most beautiful and relaxing setting I’ve ever experienced. We hope to be back soon.

Beautiful Maine Home

Suzanne was a wonderful host, and the property was very unique, historical and beautiful. The porch overlooking the ocean was the place to be when not in front of one of the many fireplaces. Surprisingly close to restaurants, bars and things to do.

Wonderful Ocean Property in Beautiful Bayside!

We thoroughly enjoyed this amazing property! We utilized the entire space including the carriage house. The house was beautiful with so many interesting features that made it feel timeless while at the same time having all of the modern amenities. Our family really enjoyed the walk to the rocky beach and swimming in the refreshing waters of the bay. The sunrises were unforgettable. We created a lot of wonderful memories that we will cherish forever at this wonderful property!

Family vacation

Great location for family vacation. Fantastic back porch used for morning coffee and evening drinks, ping pong tourneys and relaxing dinners. Quirky older home with lots of nooks to discover. Large enough that eight adults could easily find a quiet space to work or read or just get away from everyone else. Easy access to beach (steep steps but with hand rails all the way).

Beautiful home on the water

We had a delightful time staying at Bayview Farm!!! It is a lovely old home full of charm in a quaint village close to picturesque towns. It has the most amazing deck with an ocean view. That is where we spent most of our time playing, relaxing, reading, and eating. The kitchen is very well appointed with everything you need for family meals. The bedrooms are plentiful and easily accommodated my extended family. It's truly a magical place to stay!

Perfect Penobscot Bay Views

Summer gathering of well-dispersed family made for happy memories on the massive porch overlooking the bay. Quirks are all as advertised and contribute to the charm and ambiance. Proximity to Belfast and Camden a big PLUS!! Great kayaking, too, from the perfect stone beach. Steep stairs are not for sissies.

Best Porch in Maine!

We had a group of 5 couples from college get together and we had the BEST time! The house was charming and the views from the back porch and dock were two of the most beautiful scenes imaginable. A lot to do in surrounding towns but access from highway is easy. Suzanne offered a lot of ideas and help of things to do in the area as well. Can’t recommend this place enough for a group!

Charming Coastal Getaway

Our stay at this charming Maine vacation home was unforgettable. The house itself is full of character, cozy yet spacious, with thoughtful touches that made us feel instantly at home. The highlight, though, was the stunning waterfront view — waking up to the peaceful sights and sounds of the water each morning was truly magical. We loved relaxing on the porch and watching the sun rise over the bay. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a relaxing and beautiful coastal getaway! Suzanne, our hostess made sure we had everything we needed. I can’t say enough about how helpful she was!

Stunning View

We spent virtually all of our time on the wonderful porch overlooking the bay. It was mesmerizing and we loved every minute of it. A pair of eagles flew past regularly at eye level, which was really special. Suzanne was exceptionally helpful when we had questions and was a fantastic host. We had a magical time in Bayside.

Gathering family and friends

Excellent location, near Belfast but in quiet Bayside. Fantastic, spacious old summer home with authentic antique vibe. The porch had a gorgeous view and was an amazing place to hang out. Stairs down to the pebble beach were steep and long, but worth the effort. There were minor issues with plumbing, but that’s to be expected with a vintage house, and hosts were quick to respond and correct. Our group of 8 had an enjoyable time making memories at this place!

Perfect spot on the bay

We had a wonderful stay at this classic old Maine house. Great location - away from the crowds on the water. Spectacular porch with view of boats and the bay. Rooms were large and comfortable. We and our adult children were able to explore the area and look forward to coming back to our lovely old house. We spent a night before Hurricane Lee with wind howling, but the house was stable and quiet. Suzanne the host was ver accommodating and concerned fir our welfare and made sure we were happy and safe. We would love to go back any time and highly recommend this rental.

Nice House and Property

The house was at a great location, near Belfast and not too far from Camden/Rockland. Good for kids. The house was very large and old-style classic. The porch was huge and great, old school. The property was very nice, access to rocky shore was good, but with a lot of steps. The plumbing was old but clean and the lighting was also old. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you needed to cook and more. The host was very good and responsive, we had no problems and had a nice stay

Maine Family Vacation

Each summer our extended family gathers in a new spot for a week together. Last year it was Vancouver Island, and this year we chose the Maine coast. Three generations enjoy time relaxing and outdoors, and this year the Maine house was perfect for us. Beautiful porch overlooking the Bay; nice beach for the kids to play in and for all of us to kayak. Plus, an extremely well-equipped kitchen for my daughter who loves to cook for a crowd. I could have spent all summer exploring the very cool house, comfortably furnished and with unique local furniture. A treasure!

multi-generation family vacation

We picked the perfect house for our first trip to Maine! The house was ideally located on a pristine bay with clear and calm water. It has the best porch I have ever seen in any house, anywhere in the world- absolutely spectacular views of the bay. The best place to drink your morning coffee, eat all of your meals, play ping pong and have your evening drinks! The house was well-furnished and had everything we needed. We also rented the carriage house for the week for the extra space because there were so many of us. The small adjacent village of Bayside is a delight and nearby Belfast has everything you need without being overrun by tourist kitsch.
