Perfect Place For A Family Reunion!

Our family had an absolutely wonderful stay! The house is clean, comfortable, and fully furnished with everything we needed, and the yard is spacious and beautiful. Our host, Sheri Blackstone, went out of her way to accommodate us and to make sure that we enjoyed our visit. We could not have had a better time and look forward to returning. Five stars all around and most highly recommended to others!

Get away

Great quiet spot to enjoy Maine's mid coast. Very clean and comfy. No water view- but can walk to Stovers point for water or drive 5 minutes down the road for a beautiful sunset view over the water. Beds were so comfy!

Harpswell was Swell

Nice vintage cape home with plenty of dining space and a nice living room. Close to lovely hikes. We were here for a wedding which was close by, so this location was very convenient. Kitchen equipment could use some updating but things were clean and all appliances worked. Great communication with the host also.

Quiet Maine Retreat

There were a couple hiccups at the beginning of our stay, but Sheri, the property manager, helped us along the way. The house was cozier than what the pictures showed and the property is beautiful and secluded. It's about a 20 minute drive from Brunswick for supplies and eateries. And there is a secluded beach within a 10 minute walk to see the seashore. If you're looking for a quiet getaway in Maine with several people, this is a good choice.

Sheri is great to work with. It was nice to have laundry on sight and two levels with two bathrooms. (That’s what made me choose The Hideaway.) lots of pluses…and on the flip side for the benefit of the owners and future guests please know….The main level bedrooms mattress set needs replacing asap as do all of the pillows. I gave up and took a blanket and slept on the family room sofa the last 4 nights. Also my friend took a bad fall off the slippery back steps. Non-skid mats are needed.

Thank you for your review, we're glad that The Hideaway, including the layout and convenience of the two levels and laundry worked well for you. We’re sorry to hear the downstairs bed and pillows weren’t to your comfort. Most guests have found them comfortable, and there are multiple pillows throughout the house and in the closets for those who prefer a different style or firmness. We always encourage guests to reach out during their stay if anything needs attention, we’re happy to help right away. We appreciate your note about the steps as well and will take a look to ensure everything is safe.

70th birthday

Four sisters celebrating one of their 70th birthday. The house fit us beautifully. We each had our own bed and there was everything you would need for our long weekend. Very clean and comfortable. The kitchen table was perfect for our nightly competitive board games.

Quiet Retreat

Very large house with large yard and lots of trees and gardens. Spent lots of time in the yard. Can't see the ocean but you can feel that it is there. There is a short walk to a nature preserve e that is beautiful at all times of the day. Harpswell is a lovely peninsula. The house was well equipped and we had a very nice time..

The area is very beautiful, quiet and lovely.

We were a group of 5 women ocean kayakers and spent from 9-4pm on the ocean. The house was in a great neighborhood, very well appointed with everything we needed. Sheri was super responsive and accommodating. We were very pleased with everything and feel the listing accurately reflects the description.
