About this house rental

64 Main sits on a large corner lot in the Friendly Village of Harrison, Maine. The current owner grew up in Harrison. He and his family returned in 2016-17 to restore his Doctor's former home. (Dr. Rubie Day was one of Maine's first female Osteopaths). As a young boy walking to school, Ron, would pass Dr. Rubie's house wondering if one day he would ever own a home like that.

Coming "home" has been a romantic journey, and reminder of what makes Harrison, and this home, a special place.

Harrison is in the heart of Maine's Western Lakes region, known for it's four season recreational opportunities and Village pace of life. Beginning in the Mid 1800's , steamboats and later the Narrow Gauge Railroad carried city dwellers to Harrison year after year. Boys and Girls camps flourished. Today there are families who have lived in Harrison for generations , welcoming those who come to their summer/ ski homes, and short term visitors alike.

From 64 you can walk across the back lawn to Crystal Lake, the town Beach, boat launch, and park. From the front door you are within blocks of the Town Library, year round Old Mill Restaurant (great food and frequent entertainment), and the Harrison General Store. Deertrees Summer Theatre, is just 1 mile "up the road".

When restoring 64 Main, the owner had his eye on creating a home that could accommodate many ages and host family reunions and small events. The owner collaborated with his wife who owned and operated an Award Winning small hotel in Portland for 16 years. They aspired that 64 Main be a place where families will come year after year, enjoying spaces to gather together as well as find moments.

64 Main has 6 bedrooms. 2 Master Bedrooms with King beds and en suite baths. One Master is on the first floor with a private deck. The third floor attic space is a classic kids loft that can easily sleep 6. The large family room (once a barn) and attached screened in porch are favorites of many.

The owner tried to preserve as much of the original house as possible while creating a lasting, safe, and comfortable home. The home was all new windows (30!), a new heating plant that utilizes the original radiators, all new plumbing and wiring, expanded new septic system, state of the art insulation, some air conditioning, all new appliances including a 6 burner gas stove, and a Fire Sprinkler system.

There are 2 onsite paved parking areas/ of space to accommodate a boat.

The home and grounds are smoke free. We love animals but do not allow pets.

Our second summer at the property was as good as the first time. Fresh flowers and pastries welcomed us into the home. We did find wasps behind the grill, but the owner came by and sprayed a few hours after we notified her. Garage is stocked with all you need for the lake. Plenty of games with plenty of space to play them in.

Family vacation. We had great time. The lake with a playground is just behind the house. The house is fully equipped with just everything you can think of including a popcorn machine…. We really had a great time. The kids loved having their own floor which was wonderful. It’s even more beautiful than the photos

This home is truly perfect. We stayed at 64 Main Street with two other families, 6 adults and 7 kids under 6. The home was awesome, three floors with the third floor being a loft style space, the kids were obsessed. Then the lake, playground, basketball court, restaurant, general store and ice cream are all within a 5 minute walk. We didn't have to put our kids in the cars once! Anyone looking for a chill vacation spot with all of the conveniences this is the place to be! We will definitely be coming back!

What a lovely home! Old Maine charm, with modern luxury, and steps to Crystal Lake! Our family enjoyed every moment of our stay. Coffee on the screened porch in the morning, big breakfasts and dinners prepared in a fantastic kitchen with open dining and space for everyone to gather together. We loved the spaces created for the children, plenty of books and games to play in the evening. This was the best stocked home of any we have rented! We are so grateful! We would love to stay again.

This was my family's 3rd year returning here, and we had a wonderful time. The house, lake, and local area appeal to everyone in our multigenerational group. We all love being so near to the water, and the walkability of Harrison for ice cream and basics. The location is beautiful and the house is lovely. Barbara is also very helpful and responsive. We briefly had a power outage during a storm on this visit, and she responded to my message right away, and was immediately in touch with local services to report the outage and get an ETA for us on the repair. Everything was resolved within about 2 hours. I highly recommend this location!

We booked this house for our wedding party to stay in and it was perfect. So many bedrooms so no one had to share a room, great spaces to hang out in and chat. Short walk to the beach and downtown. Barbara is very responsive and a great host. Would definitely recommend!
