About this house rental
This lovely vacation home is in Georgetown, ME, known for the beaches of Reid State Park and lobster on the wharf at Five Islands. It’s perched on the water's edge and surrounded by trees for privacy. With three bedrooms, two baths, an open floor plan, knotty pine walls, a screened in sun room and large deck, you can spread out and enjoy the water views.
One hour north of Portland and a short drive to Bath or Boothbay Harbor, the area is prime for kayaking, exploring National Audubon trails or antiquing and dining. Relax in the cool evenings with fireplaces downstairs and in the master bedroom! Walking paths take you through the woods to a private beach where you can cross at low water to the Little Knubble, a tiny rocky island. Your family will have a bang-up good Maine summer holiday here!

We thoroughly our time in Georgetown. We visited both Reid State Park and Popham Beach, both relatively close by. Enjoyed late afternoons and evenings back at the house which is very private, scenic, and lovely. We were able to cook several meals in the very well equipped kitchen - especially appreciated the sharp knives! We would absoutely return for another stay.

We are a family of 5 and a fur baby. The moment we arrived, we were completely in awe of our accommodations and its location. It immediately felt like home. Enno & Susan provided all the necessary things one would need to feel at ease when traveling. Our 3 boys are little adventurers and spent hours & hours combing the beach and island area. We’ve been traveling to Maine for our families vacation for the past 5 years and this was the first place that we wanted to return to. It is a piece of heaven on earth.

My family, friends and I had such an amazing time at Enno and Susan’s home in Georgetown. The location is breathtaking with beautiful views and access to the water for our boys to do some exploring during low tide, which was a real treat. The place was clean and had all the amenities we needed to have a fun and relaxing stay away from our busy lives. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

-The hosts, Susan and Enno, went above and beyond with their communication and sharing of important information to make sure our vacation was the best it could be
-The home is even more spacious than it appears in photos; very clean and equipt with everything a vacationer needs(if not, there is shopping nearby to get what you need). The open floorpIan and endless windows make the place light and airy with water views from many rooms. We did not expect the luxurious towels or toiletries that were provided. The clean linens and bedding were better than what I would have packed!
-The setting is beautiful! Waking to water views with nature absolutely surrounding us is how my family likes to spend our leisure time, so, we were tickled pink! Be warned, lots of deer flies and mosquitoes but the hosts even had insect repellent on hand if forgotten.
-So much to do in the area and beyond if you don't mind a little road trip. We rented kayaks for the week (Enno suggested a place, they deliver and pick up!), dined at the Osprey at the nearby marina, went to Reid state park to hike and climb on the rocky coast, biked some trails in Brunswick, ventured north to Boothbay Harbor for sightseeing and shopping, ventured south to Portland for the same plus aawesome food, stayed at the home for breezy, lazy days on the deck. This was an excellent place to stay! And our Goldendoodle got to enjoy it as well; 4 paws up from Lily!

We loved staying here! The house is at the end of a quiet road with access to a private island during low tide. The kitchen was well stocked, the bedrooms and beds were comfortable and there was plenty of space for our family and dog to relax and play. Reasonable distance to the beach too!

Love the Knubble
The property's location can't be beat -- for hiking, kayaking, beach and sightseeing excursions and dining out. It's well equipped and and comfortable -- plenty to see and do without leaving the property.
Host stays in touch, answers questions quickly and provides lots of helpful information and suggestions.

Beautiful and secluded Maine retreat
Spacious house with plenty of comfortable beds and great deck with beautiful water views and gorgeous sunrises. Very clean and well-appointed. We did not have to run out to the store to purchase any basic living supplies. Secluded yet not too far from the convenience of Bath. Property manager always available and very helpful.

The property is perfect for hiking and kayaking. The house great for cooking and eating outside; it's spacious and breezy. Ideally located to visit Woolwich, Wiscasset, Five Islands and Bath. Hosts were very attentive and all was enjoyable.

It really doesn't get any better than this!
This place is truly special. The house was designed and built with such perfect proportions and materials, and has been so lovingly cared for; everything about it says ‘Welcome Home.’ The location on a glorious knoll, overlooking Robinhood Cove and Little Knubble Island, is so ideal that anywhere you are, indoors or out, feels like an enchanted spot. Deer and osprey are often about, to my delight.
The view of the cove and the play of sunlight ~ or moonlight ~ on the water, through the trees, is utterly magical.
Enjoying the warm play of a fire in the fireplace in the living room or the upstairs bedroom is a lovely treat (especially on those raw, damp days). And being able to play the piano is such a joy!
Enno Becker has been ever so warm and accommodating, and immediately responsive to any issues requiring attention. All kinds of thoughtful provisions were provided to make guests feel at home.
I have had several stays in this place, and I always look forward warmly to my next opportunity to stay here again.
