This was our Plan B vacation when our original "bucket list" trip for three weeks in Russia and Scandinavia was canceled due to COVID. We could not have enjoyed the property more. Meticulously clean, comfortable and well stocked, the house is beautiful. Especially appreciated the tasteful decor (no "country kitsch"!) and smart TV and cook's kitchen stocked with many essentials (way more than we are used to finding in VRBOs). The property is lovely and secluded (the only nightlife is the animals and the amazing stars!), but do note that it's a steep grade down to the water - my husband had just had knee surgery and he could not go there. Elderly folks may have trouble. Really wonderful place and the host was very responsive and easy to deal with. We'll definitely enjoy this property again.

The newly built house is nicely located; away from the crowded Acadia with great and beautiful hikes nearby. We loved the house which is well equipped and ideal for family with dogs. We were blessed with great weather and therefor did not get to reading the excellent information of the area and recent books. One can see the Milky Way on a moonless night. Information on shopping and dining was very usefully.

Overall we enjoyed our stay at Ollie's Follie. The house was very clean and well stocked with all necessities! We had several family dinners at the large dining table and enjoyed sitting out on the deck. We were disappointed in the lack of water view and access to the water! The hill to the water is very steep and there is no path! We had plans on kayaking and paddle boarding but the climb made this very challenging. I really would suggest making a path to the water and adding a dock for future renters to enjoy the water. Also, we found ourselves in a heat wave during our stay. There is no ac and we had only two floor fans to deal with the heat. Luckily the heat wave cleared after two days.

This house is comfortable, impeccably clean and lovely decorated. It’s off the beaten path—an hour from Acadia and Bar Harbor. The access to the waterfront is steep, so careful with kids, but lovely area and great place to enjoy Maine and all its natural beauty! We would love to come back!

We loved our stay! The house was well stocked with everything. Very clean!! We couldn’t be happier with our stay! We loved having a fire every night. Making s’mores and hot dogs! Lots of memories were made My Only suggestion would be to get some plastic cups for outside by the camp fire. Thank you for a wonderful stay!!!

This home was absolutely perfect! The owners gave great attention to detail, from decor to amenities. This place was very secluded and peaceful. I would definitely rent from the homeowners again.

We had an amazing trip thanks to the awesome facilities at ollies folly. Abby was extremely accommodating and had great communication throughout our trip. Would highly recommend!!!

We found Ollie’s Folly to be everything as advertised and more ! This location offered an excellent retreat with attractions for day trips in every direction. Day trips included: North to Quoody Head Light House (be sure to bring your passport – Canada and the McClellan Park is just a few more miles). South to Arcadia Park and Bar Harbor and after the crowded streets of the latter you will enjoy the privacy of Ollie’s Folly even more. The under exploration of Schoodic Mountain is a great day three trip with local venues to dine and enjoy a beverage on the sea side. Obtaining local lobster is way too easy and great for a wonderful dinner at this VRBO – as Ollie’s Folly does indeed have everything one needs in the way of a very well supplied kitchen and appliances that include a lobster pot, specialized plates and utensils for such a feast. So, build a fire, bring a bottle of wine and enjoy this brand-new setting in the woods of this Downeast part of Maine. Hosts; Abby and Will were great, sharing their insight and response to questions regarding the area and their property. Their attention to the quality of this home was evident to us and the other couple we traveled with. The cleanliness and comfort of their home with all the latest amenities that included efficient WiFi access enabled us to keep up with things back home and never out of touch. Their response to extra needs such as returning a couple of things left behind and returned to us was greatly appreciated. I would definitely recommend Ollie’s Folly and hosts to anyone looking for a lot of space and wonderful new property that is hassle free. Sit back and enjoy – we certainly did. Thanks……….

The house is new and VERY clean, exactly as pictured. It also seems well-insulated; we didn’t feel outside temperature changes at all. Paper products, hand soaps, and detergents were all provided, which was a great convenience. Furniture and beds were very comfortable, and the tankless water heater meant we never ran out of hot water. We had to be cautious of sudden changes in temperature while showering. There is a dresser/chest of drawers only in the master bedroom, so the other couple were unable to unpack suitcases for our 8-night stay. A good supply of dishes meant we didn’t have to wash after every meal. There is neither a microwave nor a teakettle, so heating water for tea and hot chocolate had to be done in a pan. Ample parking on a level lot is provided, even though the house is surrounded by trees—we even had deer in the parking area. The “water view”, however, is blocked by those trees unless you hike down the hill to the shore. Only one member of our group of seniors made it down to the shore, and she recommended that the rest of us not attempt it. We were disappointed, because we were hoping to enjoy the view of the water from the deck. No trash cans in the bedrooms, no towel storage or robe hooks in the bathrooms, and no place to hang coats near the entryway, in addition to the other things I’ve mentioned, kept this from being a 5-star rental in our opinion. The cleanliness, comfort, and quiet certainly earned it a high ranking.

This was an absolutely beautiful house! It was spotless and very well equipped with everything you need. The location was quiet and serene, perfect for relaxing and spending time with the family but plenty to do within an hour of the home. I would definitely rent this home again!
