My wife and I along with our two kids (13 and 9) had a fantastic time at Jacob’s Place. The house was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay, including a well equipped kitchen. We loved grilling on the deck in the evenings (what a great view!). The short hike (Peter’s Pond) across the street was also a fun activity. The owners were very responsive and worked hard to ensure everything was just right for our visit. Overall, this was definitely the best VRBO rental experience we’ve had so far. We hope to return to Jacob’s Place and would highly recommend this property to others.

Perfect getaway to mid-coast Maine

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to return again soon! We enjoyed our trips to Camden, Damariscotta and Pemaquid Beach but especially enjoyed our days at the house with its lovely patio and beautiful views. The house was very well equipped especially the kitchen and the hosts provided great information about sites to see in the area.

Wake up to beautiful water views

A beautiful property with sunrise and water views from every room downstairs. Plenty of space for families with the addition of a game room upstairs. Our child loved playing in the backyard, walking down to the water while we enjoyed cocktails on the porch.

We loved our stay. The house is incredibly lovely. The kitchen is fully equipped, the view is just beautiful, as is the landscaping. And the beds are exceptionally comfortable. The outside space is quite wonderful as well. We were very happy with the location- easy to head north to Rockport and Camden or south to Damariscotta. And the owners were so responsive to any questions we might have had. And to top it off, we had exceptional weather! A terrific two weeks!

Relaxing with great view!

The property was better in person than the pictures. We had 4 adults, and it was extremely spacious, both inside and outside living areas. We had fires at night using the outside fireplace, coffee on the deck, and watched the tide come in and out. Great place!!!

Lovely property and amazing host

Such a unique property, from the family gaming room to the large soaking tub, and the amazing view of the large meadow and river beyond it. We had a very relaxing stay. Mia is a great host, communicates well, and provided amazing suggestions for exploring and eating in the region. Boothbay and Camden are easy day trips as well. Great location for a quiet Maine vacation.

Perfect Maine Coast Location

This Waldoboro location is a great starting point for day trips to locations to all points of the compass. We visited seaside sites, woodland trails and villages, all with a great show of leaf colors. the home is comfortable, nicely equipped kitchen, magnificent deck and outdoor fireplace. All with a fantastic view to the east and morning sunrise.

Wonderful !

Our family loved our stay at Jacobs Place. The chef's kitchen has everything you need for preparing meals. The home is beautiful as well as the property. The hosts provided information for the surrounding areas to visit as well as all the grocery and specialty stores which was very helpful. I highly recommend this home to visit coastal Maine.

Lovely Week in Maine

I, my partner and my adult children and their partners spent a very lovely week at this home. The place was really special given the views from the porch and the inside accommodations. The kitchen was very well stocked with cookware, dishes, wine glasses etc. We loved the fire place and walking through the hay field down to the water. All in all I would very gladly recommend this home to everyone looking for a fun, peaceful vacation.

Beautiful home, beautiful setting

Jim and Mia have done an amazing job restoring, decorating and tastefully updating this home. It's truly special, both the house and the surrounding property. My wife and kids (ages 5 and 8) were all extremely comfortable. The house just has a great feel to it - you feel relaxed the minute you walk in the door. Jim and Mia were great hosts and provided a lot of nice recommendations for the local area.

Perfect family getaway!

Our family had an incredible stay at this beautiful Waldoboro property. Jim and Mia are very attentive and responsive hosts and the house is spacious, clean, and has amazing water access. We spent a lot of time out on the deck and on the small beach at the edge of the property. There is enough space that we were very comfortable.and the kids had enough space to spread out. Jim and Mia provided a booklet with lots of great recommendations. In the nearby area there are some great places to hike and swim and lots of towns are easily accessible. We had an incredible stay and would love to return!

Waldoboro, MAINE

We loved our stay. The home was exactly as promised and then some! Everything we could possibly need was at the home. We loved the view of the water and the comfort in every space. There was plenty of room for all of us to have our own space. Also, the neighborhood was really quiet. The town of Waldoboro was a 5 minute drive, and we loved the coffee shop there. It was also an easy drive to Damariscotta and Camden. Overall, I would highly recommend this home and would definitely return.

Lovely stay

The property is just as beautiful in person as in the photos. It is well appointed and one of the more upscale places I've stayed. The outdoor furniture was perfect - it's usually old plastic chairs, but these were great and we spent many nights drinking wine on the patio! A couple of travel tips: GPS has the wrong house. Be sure you go to the right one. :) The roads are pretty dark and winding, so be careful when driving. Eat at Moody's!

Top of the List

We have booked dozens of homes over the past 25+ years. This stay may have been the best. The home and the land are special. Quality all around from the bedding to the bath to the chef's kitchen - with perhaps the best hot water on the planet. So much to see and do within 45 minutes in any direction. A magnificent hiking trail and lake are just across the road. The relaxing view from the spacious deck of the cove and trees made it difficult to leave to sightsee. Our gracious hosts made our stay even better. They are kind, responsive and informative. Our stay could not have been better. Hope to return in 2024.
