We live in a charming 19th century farm house on the coast of Maine. We have a view of the water from the front of the house where there is access to a rocky beach, sea caves and kayaking. Our back yard is rich with apple trees, blueberry bushes, and blackberry brambles. In the house there are three bedrooms, including a fully renovated master bedroom, a full bathroom upstairs with a great claw-foot tub, a fully renovated downstairs bathroom which includes a very large, mosaic tiled shower with two shower heads and a door leading to a fieldstone and cedar outdoor shower, a beautifully renovated kitchen including a built in breakfast booth, and cozy sitting area, all stainless steel appliances and three full walls of windows looking out to the water, side yard and back yard and patio, dining room, two living rooms-one facing the water side of the house, and one facing the backyard, and a gorgeous fieldstone patio with outdoor grilling dining and a cozy bistro nook.

Note from Guests

Review Submitted: July 31, 2010 Date of Stay: July 2010
We've had a great week here and we loved staying at the house. It was so refreshing to walk into a clean, open, beautiful house without a long list of things we can't do, things we can't use, and rooms that are off-limits. We felt welcomed and trusted.

Great house and perfect location

Review Submitted: July 13, 2010 Date of Stay: July 2010
The house was lovely and as described and was a perfect location from which our family of 5 (2 adults, and 3 kids ages 9, 7 and 3) could explore Mount Desert Island. The house has an open layout with open spaces where all can gather as well as spots to comfortably sit to read a book. We would definitely return again.

Great home for families traveling together

Review Submitted: August 10, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We had a wonderful stay at this spacious, lovely, well-maintained home close to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. Our group included 6 adults and 3 young children (ages 4, 2 and 9 months) and the accommodations were perfect for our three families. There was plenty of room for us all and we enjoyed the patio, grill, swingset, children's toys and games, blueberry bushes, and nice yard for the kids to run around in. With young children it was also very helpful to have a washer and dryer and nice tub for baths. The owner was very helpful and kind in answering all of our questions before our arrival and we would highly recommend this rental home to others, especially families traveling together.
