Summary: Rating Details: The property manager was more than 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 recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The view is magnificent. But the property should have been inspected to ensure that dead mice weren't lurking under the furniture, that ceiling lighting fixtures had lamp shades, that torn lampshades were replaced, that dead light bulbs had been replaced, and that dead bugs were vacuumed out of the window wells before we arrived.The refrigerator sang and wailed to us sporadically for 3 weeks. We were assured that it was fine, and to be honest, the fridge didn't die--despite its wails. The screen door still needs to be replaced, and the mismatched porch chairs were just sad.But, oh, that view!

Summary: Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cottage was super cute and perfect for our stay! My mom needs some extra help these days so the upstairs bathroom made it so she could go a bazillion times throughout the night without having to negotiate the somewhat steep staircase. The kitchen was perfect for making dinner and made us WANT to do the dishes with the gorgeous view. The property managers were very responsive with the small adjustment we needed. Would love to come back! Felt like the calm and inviting atmosphere we were looking for.

Summary: Absolutely loved our late summer stay at this dreamy cottage in Harpswell. The cottage reminded us of childhood summer stays in coastal New England and the nostalgia was real and definitely welcome.

Summary: Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: This is a lovely cottage with all of the charm of a typical Maine camp. It’s age was part of the appeal for us, the steep steps were not a problem for us, and we were fine with the squeaky Floors, but it might be an issue for some. This is a perfect location in Harpswell for accessing other attractions, we especially loved Stovers Point Preserve which is just down the road. The view from the porch is beautiful, and the area is exceptionally quiet. They’re very very friendly neighbors that were happy to provide information. The cottage sits up on a hill, with water access down the hill, a 4-5 min walk. But be aware, hauling kayaks back to the cottage is a 2 person job for something like a sea kayak. We rented from Seaspray for 3?days which was plenty of time. I would definitely stay here again and would like to see it available for long weekends. My only disappointment was the condition of the cookware- scratched and rusted Teflon. I went home for some errands and brought my own pans back.

Summary: Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall an excellent experience. Property management was very responsive when a non working coffee maker was replaced same day. The dock on the shore was a little complicated to navigate since the walkway was no longer connected to the dock. A storm damaged them earlier in the year. But wading in to swim worked well at mid and high tide.

Summary: We had a great stay! The house was exactly as pictured, very cozy and well equipped. Located near the water, a bit away from the busier areas around Brunswick, but conveniently closed to grocery stores and fun activities. The communication with the host was very smooth. Would definitely recommend staying here!

Summary: With or without binoculars, the view is quite stunning. Perched on a hill, looking over the waters to the open ocean, our cottage was just right! In our kayak or on the porch was where we spent most of our two days. Even when temps dropped with pouring rain outside, we were warm and cozy inside.
