Perfect for a family gathering

Abcuob NewYork,NY
Review Submitted: September 28, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
I rented this house with two sisters and our families (13 of us in all) for a week in Aug/Sept 2009. The house is just as advertised with lots of room for entertaining, both inside and out. We were on Hancock Point for a wedding and had over 30 people for dinner twice during our stay. The kitchen was very well equipped. The owner was most helpful and truthful with info about the house and activities in the area. We had good weather, but this is a house which could accommodate a crowd on a rainy day. This is a great house for people who want to enjoy the pleasures Down East Maine has to offer without spending alot of time in front of the TV or in the bathroom.

Great location for a large family vacation

Spacely Minneapolis, Minnesota
Review Submitted: July 22, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2007
This is a beautiful older home with plenty of space to spread out. We spent a lot of time on the deck and in the screen porch. The large kitchen and dining room accomodated all 17 of us for meals and gathering time.

The only drawback was the limited shower capacity with one in the master bath and one in the storage room off of the kitchen that was a little questionable.

It is a short walk to the pier and beach which we really enjoyed.
