We had a great family vacation and enjoyed our stay at this property. There were some unexpected water issues during our visit that required repairs, but the host was very prompt, responsive, and easy to communicate with. They handled the situation professionally and provided resolution for the inconvenience.Overall, we had a positive experience and would recommend this property to other families wishing to enjoy the quiet of the island.

Ocean Beauty

This property was perfect for an extended family get together. Coffee on the porch in the morning was spectacular. A great place to be together but have space when you needed it.

Ladies Weekend

Our group was 7 women in our 50s and 60s on our annual Ladies’ Weekend. The view from this house was phenomenal. Was very nice for all of us to have our own room. We had an issue with the hot water heater while we were there, and property managers were quick to respond and handled it well. Would definitely rent this house again.

Wonderful cottage on the shore

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We are a group of 9 women friends who enjoy annual getaways. This large, waterfront cottage was perfect for us. We especially loved the modern and well-equipped kitchen. We found everything we needed and more. the sitting areas were comfortable and accommodated all of us. The house is as described; if you're looking for a sleek and modern house with perfectly level floors,look elsewhere. If you enjoy an old house with character and magnificent ocean views, this cottage is perfect. We enjoyed the area and found many hiking trails nearby. The hosts are kind and responsive. All in all, a perfect stay.

Location is gorgeous, house needs alot of love

We loved the view! The house needs ALOT OF WORK 1. Boards in the deck are loose 2. Theres almost no curtains/blinds 3. The sink is loose on the 2nd floor 4. The electrical work is very shoddy and dangerous. Theres wiring here there and everywhere 5. The floors are old and dry, i got a massive splinter 6. The thresholds and door frames are extremely dangerous, one adult stubbed their toe badly, 1 young child smacked their head extremely hard on the corner because of the thresholds Overall the communication was very slow in their own texting thread, also the pictures make the place look alot nicer than it is.. For 3k for 3 nights we expected alot better

Great location, not so great house

Started with the place not ready when we arrived. Then discovered the refrigerator had soy sauce spilled in places that were impossible to clean. Main floor bathroom smelled worse than any porta potty or pit toilet I have ever been in. I cleaned it repeatedly but to no avail. The house is very old and has walls and ceilings covered in new cedar but the floors and doors are original, with many doors having just a hook to hold them closed. One door had multiple screw tips protruding so we put corks on them to prevent injuries to the kids. Trip hazards where floors transitioned room to room with a 1 inch difference. Cooking was a challenge as the cookware was not good. Old, and distorted with nonstick surfaces peeling and the type of stove that needs very flat bottom pans to heat. We knew it was “pet friendly” so be prepared for dog smell in the furniture. It would not take much to upgrade a few things to make the property a lot more user friendly. Beware of the linen fee. I have never rented anywhere that charges a fee to provide bed linens. Maybe it’s a Maine thing?

You can’t beat the view!

The big porch is partly covered and uncovered, but no matter where you sat, you had a fantastic view! We saw eagles, lobster boats, and gorgeous sunrise/sets. You could hear the ocean from your bedroom window. We were 8 adults and 2 kids, and we had plenty of space: we fit in the main living room to watch movies at night but had plenty of alone space too (there is another tv room if you need it). Bedroom arrangements: the main floor had a bedroom (queen), and a walk in shower plus toilet/sink. The house is older/quirky so the shower and toilet were next to each other but separate rooms. Second floor had: 4 bedrooms and a full bath (tub) plus a half bath. Third floor had 3 bedrooms. Plenty of box and ceiling fans since there is no AC; we didn’t miss the AC. The house was about 20 minutes south of larger grocery stores/restaurants, but a couple of smaller options exist on Orr’s Island for a quick trip out (check their hours before you go). Kitchen was fully stocked. WiFi was strong. Beds were very comfy. To be expected, cell coverage was spotty at best and nonexistent at worst. Water pressure was ok. As an older, quirky, rustic house, the water pressure and temp would drop if more than one water source was being used, but that is the life of an old house so embrace it! Highly recommend you arrive in daylight; it’s rural and you can’t see the house from the road, plus Waze struggled to take us directly to the house.
