VRBO asks Guests to 'Summarize' their experience when they review a property they've stayed at. I will have a difficult time trying to sum up our stay in just a few words;
The pre-stay communication from the host was comforting, responsive and intelligent. The roads leading to Maple Moon are well-maintained; no pot holes! (My low-slung antique car had no problem navigating those smooth, wide roads).
Our arrival was also smooth as silk... everything was ready for our tired bones. A mini-fridge greeted us, stocked with goodies that you will have to see to believe. - I have traveled the world and THIS was, by FAR, the most gracious, generous, (and HEALTHY), snack offering I've ever received.
The Master Bed is as good as, if not BETTER than most beds at 4-star resorts. The linens were superb, the pillows were dreamy, the skylight allows the STARS to lull you to blissful sleep. The room itself is H U G E! You could grab your partner and waltz to the sounds of the night creatures, (if you open your windows!). The closet space is beyond impressive... room for ANYONE'S traveling wardrobe!
The bathroom is right out of a magazine, complete with a massive, (decorative), ancient copper bathtub! The Hosts may choose to plumb it one day, but for now it is just super-fun to be in the presence of it.
The shower water pressure was more than sufficient for my waist-long hair... that is a very important feature for me. (Can't stand having to rinse my hair in a weak shower-head stream... takes too long(!)
The Hosts are nearby but SO conscientious about the Guest's privacy! I missed by dogs back home in NC and NEEDED a 'Dog Fix'. The Host obliged by allowing me some 'play-time' with their two gorgeous rescue dogs... whom you would NEVER even know were resident at the property, unless you actively seek them out as I did. I'll let you be surprised by what they look like and won't give you any more details about them, except to say that you will want to take them HOME with you(!)
The property itself is spectacular, lush, verdant and breathtaking; go on a hike, go lie in a meadow, pick berries if the Hosts say it's the right time of year... but by all means... at least take a walk around the house.
We met our friends in Kennebunk, Ogunquit & Wells & dined out there... happily returning to the serenity Maple Moon each night. - Enjoy & book with confidence!
