My husband and I visited from North Carolina in August, so the weather and open windows were glorious. Our son and granddaughters live in Harpswell and he brought his little runabout over to the dock. We had a blast exploring the islands and collecting washed-up buoys, picking wild blackberries, and hiking the.trails.numeroutrails,ancooling local sea

The best place we've stayed at in our 25 years of summer rentals Maine. Charm, deck overlooking the water, furnishings matched, all appliances worked

Great house on a quiet bay…lots of eagles, osprey, cormorants, and even a seal. Used the kayaks for a nice paddle around the area. Clean, comfortable house in a nice area. Lots of hiking nearby.

We had an absolutely fantastic stay. Mike and Connie were perfect hosts. The sunrises and sunsets were breathtaking. Very peaceful and calming week. We can’t soak up enough of this place.

My son, his partner, my 2 dogs had a wonderful time. We swam and kayaked as well as enjoyed making one of the house puzzles. The property has 2 bedrooms with 2 queen beds - the description states 1 bedroom which is incorrect.

Property so-so, neighborhood isn’t desirable, junky and unkept. The home itself was clean….although pots/pans, eating utensils was old, stained or in bad shape. Otherwise the water view is amazing.

We take our annual family trip to Maine and this listing seemed good since it was dock access,but the ad was not informative, this bungalow is in a campsite style with other bungalow, we had plumbing issues on the first night,no water pressure,and we had to manually remove waste materials. I notified owner husband and Mr.Mike was very compassionate, but ultimate decisions would fall on the wife for any refund. Well she understood the issues and at first refused to refund the 5 days,but at the end she decided to make the right decisions and comply to dissatisfied clients. Overall if you like the campsite bungalow style ,you decide but the ad was not accurate,it seemed it was a single private home.

The cottage was better than description or the pictures and must bee seen to appreciateit. I must have looked at pictures and reviews for a week before booking, yet when we arrived we were simply shocked at the view and the equaly great cottage. Amazing sunrises and night-time star viewing. The hosts do a great job making sure everything you could need is available.

Such a great place. Beautiful view, quiet, very clean, loved the kayaks. You could nit pick some minor things but there’s so much positive it’s not worth doing that. My only real complaint would be the neighbor we got in another cabin on day 4. They decided to tie up their two large dogs outside starting early in the morning. These dogs would bark at everything and kind of ruined the setting… and sleep. Outside of that this place was worth every penny.

The location of the home was beautiful. We were just feet from the water and property had a dock and kayaks. We didn't have much time to enjoy it as we had only planned an overnight stay. We hadn't heard from the owners with the entry code info so we reached out a couple hours before check-in time. (Possibly they would have sent it before check-time so I need to give them the benefit of the doubt, but typically when we stay at a VRBO we get the info the day before or morning of our stay.) When we arrived at the home, every window was open and the house was freezing inside (51 degrees). It was a windy, chilly day. We couldn't get the gas fireplace to start so I messaged the owner to inquire how to get the fireplace or some other heat source going, but never heard back. We were able to warm the bedrooms with space heaters so we slept fairly comfortably with the bedroom doors closed. The next morning I messaged the owner again with a question about the trash and also let them know we survived the night in the freezing house. They did not acknowledge the issue we had with the heat, just wished us safe travels. We did stay only one night, and we arrived pretty late, so I get that the owners probably weren't that concerned about issues/comfort for us, but the final cost was about $475, so I would have liked to have heard back on the temperature issue. Aside from communication/responsiveness, it's a beautiful location and probably would have been a fun place to spend a few days.

Connie and Mike have done so much to make Lofty amazing!
We spent most of the week just floating in the float watches the seals and the ospreys and the fish.
The kayaks were fun too.
The very quiet neighborhood made for some great sleeping.
We are already counting down the days til our 3rd vacation at Lofty.

We had the best time!! The house was very clean. Host Mike and Connie were welcoming and helpful. Our family of 6 plus the dog fit comfortably, and the kids and adults all had a blast kayaking, swimming, relaxing, and seeing some of the local sites. Brunswick (nearby) was very convenient for quick grocery runs and takeout when needed. We’d stay again in a heartbeat.

This property is in a very quiet peaceful location. The wildlife is wonderful. The camp is comfortable. The dock is shared - something to note as it’s in front of the camp. It’s a lovely spot. I would stay again.

2. The road: The property itself is located down a very rough twisty dirt road with big hills. It would be easy to drive in an SUV or 4-wheel drive. I wish the property highlighted this. You're also surrounded closely by other houses, included some rough trailers. Drive very slow (<5 mph) and beware deer and kids. Limited privacy.
5.0
The property is great - really nice space, fully stocked and comfortable. Great location! would definitely recommend!

Connie and Mike have a beautiful location conveniently located to MidCoast Region attractions. Quiet sport with incredible views and having the Kayaks was a huge bonus. House was accurate to the listing and just what we needed for our stay.
Enjoyed having plenty of space and loved the large deck and dock area.

We are so happy that we found this vacation home away from home. It was everything we could of dreamed of and MORE! The dock was great and the kayaking was a delight. We even had a visitor while kayaking, a seal! The lobster boats going by was an added bonus. The home was cozy and clean with everything we needed. We enjoyed going to the beaches, Reid State Park, the hiking trails and eating SEAFOOD!!! If you are looking for a relaxing and cozy vacation home, this is the one. Thank you for having our family.

My wife and I stayed at this well appointed home and really enjoyed our stay. So much so that we even stayed an extra night. We needed to relax after a wedding we went to and this home fit the bill perfectly. So quiet and peaceful yet close to a grocery store, shopping, and if you like fresh seafood, Gurnet Trading Co. is right up the road.
The owners are super nice, knowledgeable about the area and were responsive to all of our questions in a timely manner.
In conclusion, we loved this place for the quiet relaxed atmosphere. The view from the house and dock were great and having fresh lobster 5 min. away was a dream come true. The beds are nice and comfy as is the entire house.
Thank you Mike and Connie for sharing your little slice of heaven with us.
We really enjoyed your place and would love to stay there again.

We had an amazing relaxing visit. The place was very clean and had everything in the kitchen needed to cook whatever you brought. The pictures do not do the view any justice, it was serine and breathtaking.

New to VRBO. Exceeded expectations.. Great short fall visit. Just as pictured and described--new construction, perched high and close to water, with big deck and classic Maine dock. Views of islands and water birds. Lots of light and glass windows. Clean as a whistle and thoughtfully equipped. (But bring bath soap! ) Bonus of beautiful sunrise and full moon drifting up orange over water. Helpful hosts close by. Geraldine, Matt, Don and Vickie

The cabin was perfect for us. We enjoyed the peacefulness while sitting out on the deck. You feel like your in your own little world yet town is just a short drive away. There is a lot to explore in the area including some well marked hiking trails.

Very clean home with a great location that feels remote, but is a short drive from Brunswick shopping and some great hiking and seafood restaurants. The dock is a plus.

We enjoyed staying in "Lofty". The spot was perfect and we loved the dock and availability of kayaks. The home was clean and just what we needed. The kids said they'll miss the loft, but they'll be back.

Had a lovely stay at this cozy cottage in its quiet setting. Great waterfront location. Lots of outdoor space for lounging and swimming. Kayaks on site a real plus. Many hiking locations nearby. Bath and Freeport are easy day trips, if you can tear yourself away from the great outdoors.

The pictures of this cottage dont do it justice. The views are incredible, the cottage is very comfortable and clean and the owners are very responsive. Highly recommend!
