Perfect location
This house is in a perfect location if you like to walk, it’s just a short walk to downtown and the ocean. The house is in a nice neighborhood and was well-equipped. It was clean, beds were comfortable and has a private backyard. We already have a reservation for 2 weeks next summer.

Sweet Retreat
Susan and Matt are well organized and streamlined in the rental process. Very clear directions on Checking and entry etc. Property is an old craftsman style lots of charm. They’ve done a nice job working with it while updating. Air conditioning which we needed for that rare 90’s week in Maine. Easily walkable to Main Street and time the museum and boat put in. Super clean!!

Great for families with young children
Convenient, nice big house, all equiped including gear for babies and toodlers. It was a really great stay, we will do it again. The area is lovely, the house is closed to the beach. The kids loved the chocolate factory and the local lobster market at Jesse.

Weekend Getaway in Maine
The house is nice with lots of room. It was only the two of us but there is ample room for more. The location is close to the coast. We enjoyed going to Rockland, Camden, and Searsport (one hour north) to do some exploring and window shopping. We had a nice hike when the weather was nice at the nature preserve over near Owl's Head. We will be happy to stay here again the next time we are up this way.

Great Mid-Coast Maine Rental
This south end Rockland home provides a nice space in an authentic neighborhood. I especially loved that the house has lots of windows, several comfy beds, a cheerful kitchen and a fenced in backyard. The decor was very pleasant. The hosts respond to any questions quickly too. We would definitely rent here again.

Maine vacation 2019
We stayed 4 nights and traveled to Acadia, Portland, Bangor and traveled the coast line. This location was optimal, everything we needed was there. The house is located just approximately 1.5 blocks from the bay and the neighborhood was both safe and picturesque. We were able to walk to town to shop and eat and to the docks to take the most relaxing private sail with our family. At the end of Crescent street by the bay is a sign for day sails, was one of the highlights of our trip. Our family fell in love with Rockland and will definitely be back and stay here again.

Great Vacation Rental
This was a great house and was bigger in person than it appeared in the pictures. The hosts were very responsive to questions both before and during our time there. It's very close to the water/boardwalk and walkable to Main Street in town for dinner. Highly recommend it!
