Our family of 5 really enjoyed our stay at this home. It's very clean, comfortable and well stocked with all of the essentials to make it easy and carefree. Each bedroom has it's own AC unit, which is nice for those warmer nights. Cool game/media room. Located about 2 hours south of Bar Harbor, there was lots to do and explore within only about a 30 minute drive in either direction. We had the luxury of talking to the owner of Odd Alewives Farmhouse Brewery (highly recommend) who gave us the scoop on some places to check out that weren't on our radar. Excellent hiking and swimming locales. Close to the grocery and a corner store that served some really great pizza, all of the conveniences were close at hand. There's a new gas grill and the outdoor space is awesome - we really loved having evening fires in the outdoor fireplace, relaxing with a beverage and having great conversations, especially at the end of a long day exploring the coast. The property and views of the water are excellent. It is quite a long walk (about 10 minutes) down to the water along the mowed path, so be prepared. It was a bit of a soggy walk and once at the water, it's tricky to get down to it, but we didn't find any use in swimming or fishing it. Getting to and from the house was easy, communication with the owners was a breeze. Wish list items would be a hot tub, cornhole, games, kayaks for the water; none were deal breakers. Would highly recommend staying here on your trip to Maine!

Beautiful, comfortable, quiet home with a fabulous yard for picnics and lounging and a lovely walk to the river. Easy day trips for kayaking, the beach, museums in Rockland, galleries in Rockport, shops and restaurants in Damariscotta and Camden and of course hiking in numerous locations.

We loved our stay. The home was exactly as promised and then some! Everything we could possibly need was at the home. We loved the view of the water and the comfort in every space. There was plenty of room for all of us to have our own space. Also, the neighborhood was really quiet. The town of Waldoboro was a 5 minute drive, and we loved the coffee shop there. It was also an easy drive to Damariscotta and Camden. Overall, I would highly recommend this home and would definitely return.

We soooo enjoyed our stay, the home was perfect for our family weekend retreat, spacious and beautiful in every way! The owners were so kind and easy to communicate with, we will definitely rent again!

We had a wonderful time. The property was large and comfortable, with lots of space for a large family, and more than enough for our family of 4. The list of local attractions was very useful, and when we lost internet access, the owners were very responsive about getting the issue fixed. The kitchen was well equipped, and we did a lot of cooking.

The house was perfect for us - 4 adults and two children. The house was clean and is well laid out. Nice and well equipped kitchen. Stunningly beautiful views from the house. We loved the deck for meals and relaxing. There were a few small issues that arose during our week but these were quickly and amicably resolved. We really enjoyed exploring the surrounding area - including some freshwater swimming, some ocean beaches, lobster rolls and renting canoes in a nearby estuary.

My brother and I stayed at this property while visiting relatives and doing a bit of family research, tracing several generations of our ancestors who lived in the Waldoboro area. Mia's home was the perfect launching pad to discover this beautiful section of Mid-Coast Maine. The view of the Medomak River every morning is gorgeous, as is the home and surrounding property. This rental home is tastefully decorated, has a fully equipped kitchen, comfortable beds and modern bathrooms. Be sure to try Lusty's Catch at the Broad Cove Marine in Bremen---one of Mia's recommendations and not to be missed! Thank you for a wonderful stay.

This was the perfect home for our family vacation. The home is spacious and has so much character. The kitchen is great for cooking and fully equipped. We spent every morning eating at the large kitchen table together and every evening outside on the deck and patio. The outdoor fireplace is beautiful and was put to good use. Thanks to Mia for sharing the firewood! The water is a bit of a hike to get down to if you are wanting a closer waterfront but it gave us a gorgeous view. Loved sitting on the outdoor chaise lounges with my coffee looking across the serene view. I can go on and on about this house. We enjoyed much needed solitude together with our daughter, son in law and 9 month old granddaughter. We also spent time sitting in the living room on the window bench and the chairs watching the baby play on the floor with her toys, all while enjoying fresh air with all the windows open. The master bedroom and bath are huge and stunning. Loved the detail of the red original front doors being the doors to our bedroom. The guest room upstairs with the adjacent sitting room worked out perfectly for our daughter and SIL to set up the provided pack and play for the baby. The parking across the road in their 3 car driveway was convenient. Again I could go on and on about how much we loved our stay. Long story long, we would come back again!

This was an amazing rental house. The house was very clean and well stocked. The nearby pond is a great place. The views from the house are beautiful.

Jacob's Place is an absolute jewel. Our family of 5 had an amazing week there. The inside of the house is gorgeous, spacious, uncluttered and and super clean. The property is private with spectacular views and charming outdoor spaces. The large deck is a perfect place for bird watching and relaxing and our family spent hours out there everyday. We tried many of the recommendations made by the owners and loved them all. We can't wait to return!!

The owners are lovely and provide a ton of information on both the property itself and Maine. The house is on a quiet street with a beautiful view of the lake. The house was well appointed and equipped and worked very well for a family with kids. We may be planning a return visit soon!

We had a lovely stay at Jacobs House. We enjoyed our visit to Maine. We sat around the fire, did a puzzle and played games. It felt nice to be in the moment. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home. Also, for your prompt response when the internet went down.

The location of the home fit perfectly into areas we were interested in exploring. There is privacy but you are not too far from town and access to main roads. There was plenty of space and stocked with all the kitchen items you will need. We loved staying at the home and would recommend to anyone interested in this area.

Nice place to relax and unwind. Our family really enjoyed our stay there!

We felt comforted and joyful from the moment we arrived. The house is immaculate and well stocked. We could gather or spread out as the mood struck us. The fireplace in the back was a favorite. The sunrise over the river was amazing only to be outdone by the full moon over the river. The downstairs is very open with lots of windows and natural light. Very peaceful.

I can’t say enough about this beautiful home and property. We enjoyed every minute we spent here. We took day trips to see the sites of Bar Harbor (2:15 one-way), Boothbay (45 minutes one-way), Rockland Lighthouse/Downtown (30 minutes), and Pemaquid Lighthouse (25 minutes). You are also only 2:45 from Boston. Mia and Jim were extreme accommodating and communicative. All of the amenities were as described with the exception of the outdoor hot tub. HOWEVER, the soaking tub in the master bath was a dream! The view out of the back of the property was gorgeous.

A great experience, can’t wait to go back!

We had a wonderful stay at the Jacob’s House. From arrival to departure, we felt like we were personal guests welcomed into an old friends home. Every detail has been thoughtfully curated and the morning light and sunset views can’t be beat. From the well stocked kitchen, to the spa bathroom, to the entertainers deck - this house is a do not miss. We can’t wait to return to this hidden gem!

We had a great stay at the Jacob's Place over the Christmas week. The house was beautiful! The Master Suite with the extra deep soaking tub was our favorite spot. But there were so many cozy places in the house to relax together as a family, but open enough that we could all spread out. The views were stunning. The walks to your private cove and pond made it a truly magical experience for us. The hosts were friendly, responsive, and very generous. We really lucked out with these hosts!. We are already planning our next visit! Thanks so much for sharing your home with us!

It was the best way to experience Maine for the first time. It was so peaceful. We tried to come last year, but the lock down didn’t allow it. I’m so glad we came. We'll definitely come back. Thanks again Mia, for all the information, it was very helpful.

My husband and I stayed here for our 10th anniversary. We were looking for beautiful surroundings, comfortable and homey stay, with some perks like a fireplace, a big tub, outdoor space, and a kitchen/grill we could kick in. This place had all of that and more. This is mid-coastal Maine. So, everything is a bit of a drive, BUT that's what we were looking for. We spent a lot of time at the house relaxing and it was well suited to that for sure. There's plenty of space to spread out for larger groups as well. The house has ample space and little spots you can carve out to read a book, daydream, sleep, relax, etc. The master has a huge soaker tub that fills with water from the ceiling! It's a marvel and so relaxing. The back deck lines the whole back of the house and is so comfortable. The water is far, but a nice walk. I loved everything about it and would definitely stay again. Mia was so communicative and gave a lot of thoughtful suggestions.

This was a great spot for my husband and I and our 4 young adult children. Plenty of cool spaces to spread out, play games, complete a puzzle, cook together — all while taking in the beautiful view out the windows of the back yard/field to the water. We absolutely LOVED the hike to Peter's Pond (starting right across the street). Not too remote. Everything (exploring towns, coast, golfing to supermarket) within a 15-20 minute drive. We would love to come back.

My family really enjoyed our stay at Jacob’s place. The home itself is absolutely beautiful with a refined rustic style, clean and well-appointed rooms, and an open floor plan. The game room, master bathroom, and back deck were particular hits with the kids. The home is situated along a quiet, meandering road and feels isolated from other nearby homes given the property size and abundance of trees and greenery. We enjoyed day trips to Pemaquid Beach (big hit with the kids) and nearby seaport towns (Camden, Rockland, Rockport all within 30 min drives). The home is also convenient to a full-service grocery store, making cooking throughout the week a breeze. There are a few things worth noting for prospective renters: - The home does not have central AC. While there were well-functioning air conditioners in the bedrooms that made sleeping comfortable, the common spaces were a little warm for our liking (high 70s - low 80s), especially during daytime. - The riverfront is quite far from the home, and while there’s a convenient grass path connecting it to the home, the riverfront itself is very overgrown, making access difficult. We were really looking forward to the waterfront but didn’t get much use out of it beyond the stellar views. - The home’s location is very peaceful, but be aware that more active attractions are a good drive away. We appreciated being away from the bustle of a town, but families who prefer to be close to the action may find this home too remote. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend this property to others looking for a relaxing Maine getaway.
