The Nest was exactly as described - cozy, clean and walkable to everything in Freeport. Erica and Doug were very communicative and even had it ready early on check in day for us. We appreciated all of the local tips they gave us for things to do and see too. We look forward to going back to Maine and would stay at the Nest again. My husband, son and I all enjoyed our time here relaxing and unwinding after sightseeing all day.

Beautiful Little Apartment with Coastal Maine Flare

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at The Nest! The apartment was very clean, was stocked with everything we needed, and was conveniently located in walking distance to LL Bean and Freeport shopping. Apartment was very quiet and cozy in a coastal Maine style just like the listing said. 10/10. We live pretty far away, but would love to come back and stay here again!

A little gem...

Our family stayed at The Nest for 2 nights. It was clean, comfortable, and welcoming. We had plenty of towels, sheets and blankets. The kitchen had everything we needed for some simple cooking. Erica responded nearly immediately to any questions we had and the check out procedures were minimal and easy. A great location that is walkable to the entire downtown area. Thank you for a great stay!

Really great place in Freeport

We had a wonderful two nights at The Nest. It is a perfect size and in the perfect location for walking to everything in Freeport. It is tucked away on a quiet side street with plenty of parking. Easy check-in and most importantly, the place is super clean, comfortable, and really well appointed. Erica and Doug have done a fantastic job of creating a beautiful space for visitors and were super responsive to our questions. We had a nice conversation with Doug on our way out. Really nice guy! We would definitely return and probably wouldn't bother looking for any other place because this was so perfect.

Excellent all around!

If I could give 10 stars, I would! Erica was the best host we have ever had. She responded immediately to my messages and went above and beyond even offering to come pick us up at the airport after our flight was delayed 3 hrs, and the rental car wait was >2 hrs. Luckily we didn't have to take her up on the offer but the fact that she offered meant so much! The Nest was lovely, clean and comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay. It was perfectly located in Freeport, just a quick walk to the outlet mall and LL Bean store. If we get the chance to return to Maine, we will definitely try to stay at the Nest again. Thank you so much for your hospitality Erica!
