This was our third extended stay at this property. No need to say much more. The house is lovely and the view is spectacular. Lovely host. You won’t be disappointed if you stay here. Wendy and Larry L.

This is simply an awesome house – the majesty of which the online pictures do not adequately capture. • This is an huge one-level home with multiple wings radiating off of premium well-stocked cathedral ceiling kitchen: 1) a dining room wing flowing into a large breezy well-furnished screened porch with distant water view; 2) a master bedroom wing (with ensuite bathroom & dressing room / closet / gas fireplace); 3) a guest bedroom wing with bedrooms & hallway bathrooms; 4) a living room wing with cathedral ceiling & wood fireplace, & full surround of windows and doors for cross ventilation; large garden with umbrella, eating & snack tables, chaise lounges, gas grille, and hammocks. Premium furniture and decoration throughout, exceeding expectations. • Unbelievable sense of of quiet -- and opportunity to chill. • Well stocked pantry, supplies, and stocked bar! Stereo, TV, beach chairs. • Extraordinarily responsive, friendly & professional owner (Ann) committed to your enjoyment and privacy. • Complete privacy, surrounded by trees and large mowed fields which includes blueberry field, including some blow-your-socks-off raspberries. • Minutes to Blue Hill, Castine, Brooklin, and Stonington, supermarkets, farmers’ markets, lobster shack, general store & gas station; Arborvine and Brooklin Inn are excellent nearby restaurants, Tinder Hearth for world class breads & pizza (must reserve online). • This is the ultimate getaway if privacy, quiet, and access are important.

This was our second extended stay in this beautiful home. It is secluded, yet close to all the amenities of Blue Hill and numerous nearby home-based dining options (Tinder Hearth, Roaring Lion, El El Frijoles, Strong Brewery). If you prefer to cook at home, the kitchen is very well-equipped. We had a wonderful time at local beaches, hiking trails, and shops. The screened porch provided a perfect spot for morning coffee or for viewing the stunning sunsets. Kudos to our host, Ann, who even surprised us with a perfect little red chair for our granddaughter. Five stars all around - you will love it!

If you are looking for a beautiful and peaceful respite from the busy world - this is your place! A true gem in every respect - from the homes design, artwork, beautiful kitchen, serine fireplace and wonderous views. Communication with the property's owner, Ann, was a true pleasure. The house was spotlessly clean with attention to every detail that you could imagine. Our family enjoyed every minute and would love to return!!!!!

We had a lovely getaway at Ann’s home. Peaceful and cozy. Our young children loved exploring the fields and woods. Best croissants were from nearby Tinder Hearth. Beautiful hike at Barred Island Preserve.

Beautiful home, clean, well-stocked, and well-located. Very nice host, too
