An absolutely wonderful stay. The communication was excellent and the directions and explanations about where to park and how to get into the apartment were superb. The apartment was much larger than we expected. Lots of room for the three of us and could have easily managed another person. The welcoming touches were lovely: a note with some treats. The bedroom is private but the second bed is in the main room that also holds the couch and TV plus the eating table. The kitchen is spacious and well stocked with a fridge and freezer, coffee maker, and lots of supplies if you want to cook. They left us eggs and have lots of spices and condiments. The bathroom is big and we really enjoyed the big fluffy towels. The location is great, only 13-15 minutes from Waterville and from Colby College. A very easy and scenic drive. A couple of small points to know. You do have to go up a set up stairs to get to the apartment so it is not wheelchair accessible. The windows don't look out on anything fancy so you don't get to enjoy the surroundings (the pond, etc) from your room. And I did recommend blackout curtains for the bedroom as the sun comes up early in Maine in late May. Thank you for providing a great stay for our daughter's graduation weekend!

A beautiful Property nicely located.

I have never had a better stay than here in Oakland. My first day when I checked in the key was in the key box and I already had the combo to open it. When I walked in I felt like I was walking into my Nanas House everything was immaculately clean but at the same time just cozy and peaceful. I felt like I was with family and not alone like I was. I walked into the kitchen and on the counter was a card welcoming me as well as 2 small bottles of wine some chocolate covered macaroons, a bowl full of raisins and some homemade banana bread with directions on how to heat it up. The bedroom had big bed a walk-in closet a chase lounge a desk with directions on how to connect to the Wi-Fi as well as big comfortable chair and a stand alone mirror. The living room had a comfy couch and two comfy chairs… laid on the couch many times exhausted after work. You have your own designated parking space and you are within a couple of miles of anything you might need on your stay.Overall it was just a very homefelt place to stay and I would recommend this home to anybody looking to stay in this small little town.

Two major negatives with this property. First, the shower water pressure was non-existent. We tried to find another place to stay because the shower was horrible. Second, the main bed needs to be replaced. We rolled to the middle all night. Overall just not comfortable.

This place was the best we have stayed in as far as Vrbo’s go. Gary and Irma had nice little touches with the little things like fruit, cookies, eggs to cook, and coffee. Extremely clean place, and they have anything else you may need depending on the weather. This place is worth every penny! Thanks, Mike and Gina

Great place to stay when visiting the area. We appreciated the goodies left for us in the kitchen. Nice towels and linens, too!

This property was great. The apartment itself was really comfortable and the hosts left some local jam and eggs (and a few other welcome gifts), which was a very thoughtful touch. I would definitely recommend someone else stay here, as it was exactly the relaxing place we were looking for.

We enjoyed our stay. The host provided a goodie basket with wine and I was pleasantly surprised to find basic breakfast items in the fridge. After a long travel day, those items were lifesavers. Quiet and comfy - very relaxing.

Short stay but amazing place. Very welcoming, hosts were thoughtful and made us feel very comfortable. Would definitely go back. Highly recommend it.

We wanted for nothing at this rental. It was immaculately kept and very well stocked. I’ve never stayed anywhere the owners have thought of and provided so many items one usually needs to pack or go out and buy. We would definitely stay here again and recommend to others. Gary and Irma are great hosts.

We are so glad we rented this nice VRBO in a location that made it convenient to get anywhere you want to visit on the coast of Maine! Highly recommended for anyone that wants a clean, comfortable and spacious rental.

We had a wonderful week in Maine. The pond on Irma & Gary's property is so peaceful. The apartment more than met our wants. It was truly a home away from home as everything we could possibly need was provided.

Gary and Irma provided a lovely place to unwind after a long day. They thought of every amenity.

This was a fantastic property. It really felt like home! The owners have thought of everything! Don't overpack! And don't waste money shopping when you are going there before you've had a look around. The place is fully stocked! This definitely will be my go-to spot whenever I am in the area! Thank you!! ps- It is a flight upstairs, so keep that in mind. (I am disabled, but was able to make it up and down without much trouble.)

Clean, with everything you need! Nice personal touches.

Irma and Gary have thought of absolutely everything we could need and even some things we didn’t know we needed! A basket of wine and treats greeted us. The unit is very clean, comfortable, towels are plush, and the kitchen is very well supplied. We imported dinners from good Waterville restaurants and enjoyed them in this cozy apartment.
