Fabulous Rental

5 of 5
Submitted: October 23, 2012 Stayed: August 2012
We rented this house during the last week of August and were very pleased. It is spacious, functional, and well-maintained. Our young kids loved the garden area and we spent lots of time in the yard and on the patio. It’s a very short (but steep) walk into the center of town Rockport, including to Shepherd’s Pie, the lone restaurant, which was excellent. The view of the bay is fabulous. Walking to Graffam Bros at the end of the street for lobster rolls can’t be beat. Boat/bike rentals are a two-minute drive, and Camden is about 1.5 miles. There was plenty to do within walking distance or very short drives with the kids – lakes, hikes, lobster boats, parks, etc. Our kids spent hours collecting hermit crabs at Walker Park while our toddler played on the swings. The owners were extremely helpful and responsive. The house is very nice and it made for a great family vacation.

Hi Kathie-

We just got home and just quickly wanted to thank you for sharing your fantastic
home. We had such a nice week and can't stop talking about how much we loved
Maine as well as your home and gardens (and view!). As usual, we could not
fit all the activities we were hoping to accomplish into one week, but we had so
much fun hiking, canoeing, sea combing, and eating. Oh-- the kids also fit in
a lobster boat ride with Captain Jack, which they definitely enjoyed. Your
house was in the most perfect location and was such a comfortable place to
return to after a day full of adventures.

Thanks again!!

Great Rental

5 of 5
Submitted: August 15, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
We thoroughly enjoyed this lovely historic property! It had an exceptional amount of living space - living room, family room, library with space for setting up games and 2 computers, large dining room and modern kitchen along with a roomy deck overlooking Rockport Harbor. It was welcoming and immaculate when we arrived - even down to vases with fresh flowers from the extensive gardens. The owner was very helpful both before & during our stay with recommendations about things to do and places to eat. It felt more like staying at a friend's place, than a typical vacation rental.

The location was great - within easy walking distance of Shepherds Pie restaurant, Graffums seafood mart & lobster roll shack, and the harbor. We rented bikes from Maine Sport (close by), and enjoyed several easy bike rides into Camden and around the area.

Our favorite activity was going out on a lobster boat one morning (cratetoplate.com) It was quite unique to see how the lobsters are caught, and help with it - and it included 4 lobsters from our catch for dinner that night. Other activities we enjoyed were golfing at Samoset, sailing with Captain Don on the sailboat Liberation, hiking Camden Hills Park, and visiting the Cellar Door Winery in Lincolnville Beach for a relaxing wine tasting and outdoor lunch.

A Fantastic Trip

Submitted: September 19, 2011 Stayed: September 2011
Kathie, Hope you had a great weekend. Our entire trip was so fantastic, from arriving and seeing your beautiful home, nestled in a gorgeous setting in such a great little town. Twice we went down to the docks and bought lobsters, which turned out to be our favorite meals, being together in the kitchen, laughing and getting our lobster fix with the freshest one could get. We also had a picnic top Mt. Battie with Graffan Bros. pick up lunches. Our guys played golf 5 mornings while the girls took time to enjoy the house and leisure time, then went to shop and lunch, as only women can do. We did go out on the Lazy Jack for a couple of hours, which was just too perfect, weather wise and otherwise. All in all, we had a wonderful time and your home was a major contributor to our memorable, fun filled vacation. Very fortunate people are we. Warm regards, Nanc

Our family loved our stay in this historic home. This beautifully decorated house, with lush gardens, and beautiful vista has the luxuries of a hotel and the intimacy and comfort of a lovely private home. Our family (ages 20-83) all loved our week there. We look forward to returning to Rockport and to Diamond Hill.
