House was perfect for our group of Kayakers. Nice eating for morning and evening meals and trip planning. Comfortable beds, good location for us. Hope to return next year.

Darren is an excellent host. The location can't be beat and there is a lot of room to spread out

After a week in maine wilderness all kids wanted was watch tv. As soon as wee got there they were happily running around picking their rooms. The house had everything we needed. It had a feel of an old farm house with a nautical flair. Super cozy and inviting. I just wish we could use a wood burning stove (it's in a process of being replaced). It was a lazy weekend just hanging around the house, laying in a hammock and looking at all the artwork around the house. We did manage to squeeze a visit to a Morse mountain and Fort popham which was a plus. Even though it felt like we were in a middle of the woods again everything was close by with in15 min. The beach, hiking, gas station, grocery store just off rt 209. For groceries we went to shaw's in bath. We don't have it in western NY but looks just like our Tops. We had a very wonderful experience, everyone injoyed the property and everything it offered, i just wish we had more time, didn't have the chance to have a bond fire or really explore the area. Darren is a wonderful host.

It was the perfect location!

It was such an nice house with plenty of room inside and out. It was so peaceful there. Could hear every cricket at night. My dogs loved it too. Big yard to play ball with them.

This place was great and fit our two families perfectly. So pleased. Darren was quick to respond to questions and very helpful.

My extended family (6-7 people) really enjoyed staying here. We appreciated the good sized kitchen and the proximity to Bath, Boothbay Harbor, Portland, and Popham Beach. The good side is orange allowed for having other cousins over to celebrate my mother‘s birthday. Everything worked well, and Darren returned my messages promptly – though I wouldn’t have minded having details in writing to refer to. Internet was strong even with all of us using it. The only thing I would note is that the downstairs is a bit damp and would be less suitable for people with allergies. The owner is in the process of replacing some nonworking windows, also downstairs, but that wasn’t a problem as the week was fairly cool and lots of fans were supplied. Overall, great value, We had a wonderful vacation.

Family get together for the Topsham Fair. Great, quiet location in a home that sleeps a large crowd.

We had a wonderful stay. The house was close to everything. We especially enjoyed Popham Beach with our dog. We parked at the fort for free and spent the day along the long dog friendly beach.

quiet, lots of little extras that helped with our stay

This was the perfect place for a last minute gathering with my family. The place is very big and feels homey. Darren was extremely nice and attentive to any questions I had about the property. Only thing to note is the photos of the rooms are a little outdated so there isn't a room that has two beds in it like the photos show. Other than that, everything is as described!

We met up with in-laws and cousins for a week-long vacation in beautiful Maine. The house was spacious and clean. We spent lots of time on the deck and watching the kids and our pup playing in the giant grassy yard. Darren was super great at communication, there were plenty of towels, the kitchen was decently stocked and Popham Beach is close. We also loved walking down to the river. Super close and easy for an evening dip. Fresh oysters from nearby Clamhunters was fun too!

Home was perfect for us. No problems at all.

What a nice place to stay. Very homelike feel; very relaxing. Close to the fort, lovely beaches, small town with good food, and near the outlets at Freeport.

We were celebrating reunion and an award at Bowdoin and this was the perfect place. Spacious, clean, not fussy, off the main road and near the river - great for kids, dogs, all ages. Many birds! Easy and welcoming.

The house was in a great location with close proximity to nearby beaches, as well as Bath, Freeport, and Portland. There was plenty of space to stretch out throughout the large house, and we loved seeing the resident groundhog each morning! The nearby Winnegance restaurant was great for breakfast and lunch.

While the house could use a little talc it was a great place for my dog and me

Darren is a great host and we really enjoyed our stay.

We stayed 4 nights with our 5 kids. Great house and yard and surrounding woods for kids and a dog to stay and play. Near Popham Beach, Bath, and Morse Mountain Reserve. Darren is very responsive and easy to work with. House is spartan but a good value.

We decided to gather as a group for NYE 2021, so we were looking for a place we could all stay and not have to drive after celebrating. Our needs/wants were 5-6 bedrooms, more than 1 bathroom, a fire pit for gathering around a fire and room for us all to gather inside. We were also not looking for a place where we were 'on top' of the neighbors. This house was great for our all our wishes. While we were here in winter, we could also see this as a great place to stay during any season. We recommend! .

Darren was responsive to all of my questions. The property was clean, well supplied and perfect for our large family (6 adults, 4 children and 2 dogs). There was plenty of room for all of us to gather and also to have some privacy. I would definitely come back again.

The house is very comfortable for a large group. We were six adults and had plenty of space to spread out, cook, dine. The bathroom is large and well appointed. The beds are mediocre and the kitchen could be stocked a little better - there were very few plates, little cutlery etc. We were only there after dark, so I can't comment on the location.

Amazing property with a great host! Would definitely stay again. It looks large in photos and is even larger in person. Quite private. A great place to host a gathering with a unique layout and all the basic necessities. Comfortable beds, plenty of sleeping spaces, and a huge kitchen table. The road and driveway are a bit rocky as expected. Older home, also expected and desired in our case. Made some ladybug friends inside the house which made the stay even more enjoyable! Thanks, Darren!
