Summary: This was the perfect location for us and we enjoyed the historic nature of the place; we watched a couple of John Ford films and found the movie posters interesting. Host, Dan, had multiple fresh flower bouquets in each room. He was easy to reach when needed for information and we loved the early morning coffee locations around the property and at the stone beach at the end of the lane. We will plan to stay there again next year! Thanks Dan!!!

Summary: Lovely home, enjoyed the bedroom facing the ocean and the sounds of same.. It got a bit too warm at times but that is unfortunately the state of the planet, not the fault of this property or my beloved Peaks Island.

Summary: We spent a lovely week on Peak’s, and the house was just what we needed! A nice walk into town, cozy and clean, quick walk to the water or wooded trails. Deck and outdoor space was also great.

Summary: I didn’t want to leave. The home was great and welcoming Very clean. We rented golf cart and enjoyed. You don’t need to rent to enjoy everything. Market,cafe and restaurant we visited were good and the people on the island were kind. The views were amazing. I loved waking up and having the view from bed along with hearing the sounds of the water crashing on the rocks. I would come back

Summary: We had the pleasure of staying in this wonderful cottage on Peaks Island. We've been going to Peaks for forty years and this was absolutely the cleanest cottage we've ever been to! I do a lot of cooking for my family and the kitchen was stocked so well which I really appreciated. The owners obviously care that their guests have a wonderful stay from all the little touches of flowers and soaps and linens. The location was amazing and we had a wonderful two weeks! Thank you for sharing this lovely cottage with our family.

Summary: The location was fantastic! We were on the backshore yet very close to town. The house had a great layout and fit our family of six adults very comfortably. We also enjoyed the lovely gardens and spacious lawn which were very well-maintained. The hosts were very accessible and pleasant and we loved the personalized touches like fresh flowers and home-baked crumb cake. Ford House is a great rental!

Summary: The John Ford House is a wonderful bungalow just a block from the Casco Bay. Every morning I sat on the deck and watched the water, breathed in the clear air and enjoyed the cool breeze. The house is lovely - beautiful wood floors, antique furniture, a wonderful yard, and a great view of the water from the Master Bedroom. If you're a fan of old movies - which I am - then this is the place for you. There are framed posters from John Ford's movies, a DVD collection of his works (and other movies too) and books about him and his career. The house is an easy walk into "town" or to the 2 public beaches. Dan and Mona were great and answered all of my questions. I'd return to Peak's Island just to stay there again!
