This house was very comfortable and had everything we needed for our week long stay. Also in a really great spot to walk into Rockland for coffee, dinner or shopping.
My husband and I rented the house as we visited our son in the area. This home is very comfortable with plenty of room and a very nice kitchen, great for cooking in. The neighborhood is super quiet and it’s an easy 10 minute walk to downtown Rockland. We would definitely recommend this home and would stay here again!
Absolutely terrific home - a phenomenally well designed and equipped large kitchen, perfect for casual or gourmet cooks; everything from shelves filled with books to cupboards with games at your fingertips; efficient and thoughtfully designed bathrooms; comfortable bedrooms; quiet location; all immaculate and spotless. Great location with short walk to bakeries and museums. A plus!!
First- Julie answered my call immediately when we could not get in and gave us immediate access when the code malfunctioned. It was pouring rain and was so sweet. Fixed the code right then and no issues at all. Such a beautiful home with updates and the quiet neighborhood was exactly what we needed. Thank you for a wonderful stay and I highly recommend!
This was a really nice, well maintained and equipped house, conveniently located a short walk to Harbor Park. We stayed during Lobster Fest, and it was perfect to be able to walk to the festival every day. There were nice restaurants and little shops conveniently located within walking distance, and a short drive to the grocery store. It was a nice quiet neighborhood. While there's no A/C, there are plenty of floor and window fans, which generally were enough to make the place comfortable in the height of the summer heat. We would definitely recommend for anyone looking to spend some time in Rockland.
My family really enjoyed staying at this extremely clean, spacious and lovely house. Furniture and beds were very comfortable. 1st floor bathroom with walk-in shower was great for my parents. Nice touches and decor. Kitchen is like new. Easy walk to Main Street, museums, restaurants and shops as well as a Walgreens. Short drive to grocery stores. Owner was quick to respond, very friendly and helpful. We were sad to have to pack up and leave. Staying here made our trip so much more enjoyable than your average hotel room - highly recommend!!!
We were looking for a clean, safe comfortable and centrally located 2 bedroom/2bath VRBO for 2 couples. The Beautiful South End met our need. The home is recently renovated and well stocked home. We traveled north to Acadia and south to Portland. We also enjoyed visiting Camden, Samoset and Monhegan. The hostess was very responsive to questions. The only we issue we had outside control of hostess was hot temperatures with no air conditioning. They had fans to allow for very comfortable temp. at night. We were not there during the day.
This was a very nice, older home, very nicely renovated. The kitchen is beautiful and has everything needed. The living room and outside sitting area are very cozy. The washer/dryer was appreciated and everything is clean throughout. I was aware there is no air conditioning, but in this older home, it can get a bit warm in the upstairs bedrooms. The windows in the master bedroom could not be opened, so we slept in the second bedroom with a window that opened. There are several fans available and we ended up using most of them. The five minute walk to downtown was nice and one we took on a couple occasions. The location is perfect to get to all the towns on the mid-coast of Maine.
This house is amazing! The kitchen is beautiful and so well stocked. Fantastic layout with so much light coming in. Love the location, only a few blocks from the ocean with wonderful walking paths. It felt like home and we hated to leave.
My daughter and I loved our stay. Juli is an excellent host and easy to contact. My daughter was able to work in the dining room while I took her dog into the also pet-friendly town. Perfect location. The binder full of suggestions for the area was appreciated. The home was exactly as described only better!
We had a really great stay. The house is very clean and updated and had a very well stocked kitchen. It was an easy walk to downtown Rockland. Would definitely recommend!
My family and I loved staying in this cottage. It was very clean and well appointed. The town of Rockland was cute and fun. We all had an amazing time and would happily make a return trip.
