Stayed one night and loved it. Would definitely stay again.

A few too many paintings and sculptures. Needs improved seating to accommodate all ages. While there were several ceiling fans, more box fans would have been helpful. Bedrooms were comfortable.

We loved our stay!

We had family in town for a celebration and this property was exactly what we needed - easy to walk to, beautiful / fun art work, spacious, and nicely decorated - a home away from home!

We absolutely loved our visit to the quaint Bayside area! Suzanne's home was beautiful and perfect for our family vacation.

A spacious well appointed home in the beautiful village of Bayside. We couldn’t have asked for a better spot to use as our home base for our trip to Maine.

Loved the house and the location. The beds were comfortable and we enjoyed sitting in the porch and greeting passerby’s. We shopped in Camden we antiqued in Rockland and Bayside. Great food and great weather! Suzanne was a perfect hostess and communicated well.

We're a three-generation extended family with an annual tradition of spending a week together in Bayside while we visit with good friends who live in Belfast. Of all the houses we've stayed in over the past 17 years, this was definitely the most gracious and comfortable. There was plenty of space for 8 of us to spread out, and the three bathrooms provided plenty of privacy. The front porch swing was a favorite with our two 5-year-olds, and the back deck is a peaceful spot for morning coffee. The bedding and mattresses were of good quality and quite comfortable. We thought we knew everything about Bayside, but Suzanne had a great suggestion and introduced us to a frog pond that we'd never seen before, much to our kids' delight! The house and property are filled with James Wolfe's colorful and energetic metal sculptures! Luckily our children are old enough to understand limits around touching or playing too near the artwork , but I could see this posing a challenge for parents of younger, more physically active, or more impulsive children. The presence of the sculptures also limits use of the yard for outdoor games.

The owners stopped by to check on us and see if we had everything we needed. Extremely nice folks. They provided great suggestions on what to do around the area and were spot on with their recommendations.

We were looking for a large home in the Camden area to accommodate our children and their families for a wedding we were attending at French's Point and "Sea la vie" was a perfect choice! This is a beautiful, warm, well decorated home in a great area! Lots of great restaurants, beautiful coastline and people very friendly to folks "from away." Owners are artists, so in addition to this being a great home, lots of art around to inspire. Great spot, would enjoy this home again. David & Janet Russell

My sister and I took my parents and aunt & uncle to Maine to celebrate my mom's 70th birthday, and we got to stay in this lovely home for a few nights of our visit! We enjoyed Darby's and Young's Lobster Pound upon the owner's recommendations. We made great day trips to see Camden, Rockport, Rockland, Owl's Head Lighthouse, and even Acadia and Bar Harbor! This house was in a great location to explore from, and when we returned "home" tired from our adventures, we were glad to come home to a clean and comfortable house. I would also like to note that the responses from the owners to any and all questions we had prior to and during our stay were always very prompt, if not immediate, and that made me feel very at ease about the whole visit! And if you are traveling with older folk (such as we were), the stairs in front were a bit much, so we used the back door mostly since there are fewer stairs up to the back deck. Thanks for a great Maine stay!

Had a little reunion with three couples from different parts of the country. The cottage (house) was everything we wanted. Plenty of bedrooms/bathrooms, a roomy kitchen and a great front porch with a bench swing. The Northport location was ideal, very close to the water in a unique, historic neighborhood. From the home, we could travel in several directions in short order. Thank you.

What a well appointed, beautiful property! We stayed for 3 nights and wish we could have stayed longer. The decor in the house is delightful, fresh, clean, artsy. Bayside is a lovely village, quiet, picturesque. The location is perfect - You are away from the hustle and bustle of Camden but can be there is 19 mins. Belfast in under 10 mins. And the owners were so nice, they provided recommendations you wouldn't know about unless you were a local. I will definitely return to Sea La Vie!

We couldn't have asked for more. Even the neighbors were friendly. The kitchen made eating in easy, and the Italian restaurant nearby in Ellsworth was fantastic! Would love to spend a week here and take day trips out if here.

The updated, laid back costal vibe the house delivers is just perfect for a relaxing and enjoying our week. We will be back next year, for sure!

Definitely recommend. Within walking distance of beach. Beautifully maintained house!

The home is absolutely beautiful! Inside and out! Not a single detail was missed! Already looking forward to coming back next year! Thank you for a wonderful getaway!

We are a wonderful stay in your beautiful home. It had everything we needed and plenty of space for our family of 6. Wish we could have stayed longer!

The most charming home with fabulous artwork inside and out. Very large bedrooms and bathrooms with lovely sitting areas and views of the water. Our family felt right at home and every detail you could think of was provided for. My granddaughters already want to return next summer. A truly amazing home and beautiful home. Loved it ❤

Our stay in Bayside was lovely! The property was well-appointed with everything we needed for our 8-night trip, including plenty of towels, cookware, and laundry soap. Beds were comfortable and linens were nice! Easy walk down to the beach across the street. The owners were around to say hello or give tips on the area if needed. Overall, lovely! Would stay again and recommend.

We enjoyed our stay on memorial day weekend. We arrived late at night but they made check-in very easy for us and since we were their first renters they also offered some extra time for checkout . We spent three nights in this house. The view from the front windows and the deck was beautiful - you could see the ocean in the distance. The living room was comfortable, as were the bedrooms. The kitchen was very workable. Owner also had new BBQ setup for us , we enjoyed grilling on back porch. It was a very comfortable place to stay.It was spotlessly clean. It is near enough that you can do or eat anything you desire yet far enough away that you have total privacy.The owners thought of every need and provided everything that one would need while on a vacation. They live right next door and ready to help whenever we needed. It is located in a quiet neighborhood away from the tourist areas, but centrally located to all the attractions of the Rockland, Rockport, Camden, ME area. I would highly recommend this vacation home to anyone.We plan to stay here again next year!
