Conveniently located near Tilton's Market, Post Office and High School. Only 15 minutes from Androscoggin Riverlands State Park, 25 minutes from Bates College in Lewiston and 1 hour from Portland. Ski and snowboard at Black Mountain (45 minutes), Mt Abram (45 minutes), Lost Valley (25 minutes), Pleasant Mountain (52 minutes), Sunday River (60 minutes) or Attitash/Wildcat (1 hour 30 minutes). 4 to 5 Guests can comfortably share this rental with 2 bedrooms and a third optional bedroom. Wifi and Apple TV included. Please note that the AC is not central air conditioning. There is a new air conditioner in the upstairs master bedroom and the loft and living room have ceiling fans.

We only stayed for one night, but this cottage was all we needed. It’s been thoughtfully remodeled, was very clean, and all the beds were comfy. Our ten-year-old loved the “cuckoo clock room’s” loft doors. If our travels take us this way again, would definitely stay here.
Me and my two teenagers stayed here for 3 nights and had an absolutely wonderful experience. The home is exactly as advertised, clean, well-stocked and cute as can be. The first night we had a power outage and the wood stove kept us warm (and it was fun and cozy!). Everyone slept extremely well on comfy beds. The shower was perfect and the kitchen had everything we needed to make meals.It was truly a fantastic stay and we will be back soon!
Thankful for the one night availability and Mike was great allowing us to check in a bit early after driving 3 hours to get ready for a family wedding! House was immaculate and convenient to the venue.
Our stay at this property was excellent, start to finish. Priced right for the location and the amenities, the place was everything as described. Comfortable bedding, flexible sleeping arrangements (3 bedrooms) and well equipped. Communication with the manager/owner was easy and quick. Highly recommend this property for a no frills experience. About an hour drive to Sunday River resort where we skied.
The house is very cute, in a good location for peace and quiet. It was kind of boring, and we tried to find the beach or something to do and there really wasn't too much. We wished we had brought some games or something to do. The owners and managers were very nice and super helpful.
In the area for a wedding, brought motorcycles along...
Property just as described on web site, great for a home-base, no problems (except for bike performance). Master bed on 2nd floor, with bathroom on first - let those kids do the steps in the middle of the night! Needless to say, we used separate beds on the first floor.
Otherwise, great accommodations.
The house was very clean and cozy. It is in a wooded area so there are ants inside, but that was no reflection on the cleanliness. If you have lower back troubles the couch may exacerbate them, but with a few extra pillows I found it to be just fine. Very nice place all around.
We enjoyed a restful, comfortable stay. Everything that we could have needed was right there at our fingertips. The Village House was very welcoming, clean and felt like home.
Overall Good, The washing machine didn’t work. The hot water kept cutting out, there is a hole in the bathroom floor that appears wet and is sinking, the living room furniture is terribly uncomfortable and should be replaced. There is an electrical outlet in the living room next to the love seat on the kitchen side that isn’t working properly. We were charging phones and that outlet didn’t perform. UPSIDE: the bed in the master bedroom was really comfortable. The set up was perfect, kitchen was adequate, location was great. I would stay there again if the furniture in the living room was replaced.
My husband and I stayed at Michaels rental for a wedding weekend in Maine. The location was perfect for the two of us. The space was clean and Michael was very responsive to our questions and prompt to help us get in the property. Would highly recommend for a small family getaway!
