Summary: Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I spent 4 days at Ocean Watch for a much-needed solo getaway after a very difficult year. The location was perfect: quiet, right on the water where I enjoyed watching the tides, and the sights & sounds. It was just what I needed. There were several occasions when I wished there were binoculars in the house. My major complaint is that the futon in the living room was uncomfortable to sit on. Maybe it's broken, but I could not get the back to stay in an upright position. Given that this was the primary place to sit while watching TV or reading in the cottage, it could use an update. I sat outside on the porch when the weather allowed it, which was heaven! A very minor nit: perhaps a new refrigerator is also in order? While it functions well, it is old and extremely loud. Marcie and Darcie of Maine Stay Vacations were outstanding in communicating with me. They responded quickly to my questions, provided very detailed instructions on checking in and checking out.

Summary: Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I already filled out a review, It was not a good stay, I loved seeing the ocean. My husband could not sleep in the same bed with me as the bed was pushed against the wall and it was too heavy for us to move.The bedroom was dreary as one half of the bedroom window was covered with spider webs and it included a large dead spider. We left a day early as it was just too uncomfortable for my husband to sleep on the futon. I would appreciate a refund for the one night.

Summary: Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The covered porch is the highlight where you can sit and watch the ocean, lobster and sailboats regardless of weather. There is a stone beach steps away and you can walk to the Cribstone Bridge The cottage is old with torn window screens, rotting wood railings and a broken futon sleeper. Maine Stay staff are responsive and helpful.

Summary: Ocean watch puts you right on the rocky shore to get lost in the ebb and flow of the tides. Easy hikes and good eating nearby. Great communication from the hosts. A bit tricky to find among the other places on the street so glad we arrived in daylight!

Summary: We loved the location and the cabin was more suited for 2 instead of 3 or 4. It really had all of the amenities, but found a few that we’re missing or could have improved our stay, but they were very minor. We would come back and stay.

Summary: Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The covered porch was an ideal spot to watch lobster boats, fishing birds, and even porpoises or to read a book while listening to the waves breaking on the rocks. Set way off the road, the location was very quiet and dog friendly. The cabin itself was tiny, especially the bedroom, but the queen size bed pushed against the wall was comfortable. No dishwasher but gas stove and large fridge. Plug in space heater only so bring warm layers. Two maintenance issues: lots of poison ivy in bushes (leash dogs) and picture window needs replacing since condensation between the double glass obscures view. That said, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily return. It would make an ideal writing/art/meditation retreat for one person.

Summary: We sat out every morning and evening listening to the water and watching the fisherman going out and in. It is a lovely location and the cabin is just right for two people. Thank you for a great week away.
