My family and I instantly felt at home in this beautiful vacation rental! The building and yard were as charming as the photos showed and we loved how easy it was to get to Belfast's downtown. The owner was always available whenever we needed her and the home was very clean and well maintained.

Spacious town house in attractive neighborhood. Easy to walk to center, great shopping, farmer’s’ market, beautiful Victorian architecture. A comfortable house with interesting artwork, nice kitchen.

Rose Cottage is a warm, comfortable, roomy house that is located in a quiet walkable residential neighborhood. Judy, the owner, communicates well and is very pleasant to deal with. The kitchen is well stocked, the furniture is comfortable and there is plenty of room to spread out. The location is perfect - a short walk to downtown with its many restaurants and shops, the Harbor Front or beautiful Belfast City Park. Or you can wander around the neighborhood and enjoy the variety of lovely old houses. This is definitely the place to stay if you are visiting Belfast.

After many years of day trips to Belfast, we were excited to spend a week there and Judy's charming Victorian was the perfect spot for us. Spacious, well-appointed, and a short stroll to town through a lovely neighborhood, it also had gorgeous flowers blooming, and we especially loved the spectacular pink hydrangeas. The beds were comfortable, the area quiet, and we slept well. Morning coffee in the sunny living room bay window was the perfect spot to plan the day's adventures. We had fun hosting friends for dinner on a rainy evening and the house was cozy and comfortable for a delightful evening. We loved our visit and highly recommend Cottage Rose! One suggestion - written directions for the TV & convection oven would be helpful.

A short step back in time in this Victorian cottage situated 5 minutes from Belfast’s picturesque harbor. Low key, super quiet neighborhood surrounds this quaint two-bedroom frame house with updated kitchen, cozy living room, and separate dining/TV rooms. Privacy porch for morning coffee and small reading nook on second level add to the laidback ambience of the home. The century-old Victrola record player in the hallway is enchanting!

We were very happy staying in this beautiful house for the week of Thanksgiving. The house is beautifully furnished, and really gives you that authentic New England Victorian experience. And the town is very special. The people are friendly, the stores are full of hand-made arts and crafts, antiques, beautifully curated clothing stores, etc. You have to order pizza from Alexias (I think it’s called) and Thai food from Rice and Noodle Thai Restaurant — the food from both places was exceptional. We had a slight issue when we first got there with the Internet, but Judy got it fixed right away — she was very helpful and eager to make sure our stay was pleasant and trouble-free. Our only (very minor) complaint would be that the fireplace was inoperable, but in the end we didn’t really even miss it.

Belfast is a great little town and this property was just what we were looking for. Everything was very clean and comfortable. Guests may want to be attentive to the railings to the second floor. They are a little rickety so might present a problem for anyone with active children or people who have difficulty with stairs. Otherwise, we had a very enjoyable stay and would stay there again.

Very beautiful house with lots of personality. Well appointed kitchen and lots of hot water for the shower. Both check in and out were very smooth and Judy was understanding and worked with our changing schedule. Conveniently located in a quiet neighbourhood about a mile from downtown. Would definitely recommend.

My husband and I had a wonderful five nights in Judy's home in Belfast. The house is absolutely beautiful and Belfast is a great town. We hope to come back soon!

Highly recommend to anyone visiting Belfast. Location is close to center and all other amenities, all within walking distance. Host is very professional and house is completely ready for guests.

What a lovely time we had in Belfast, Maine staying in this beautiful and comfortable home from August 6-15, 2020! Our last vacation was in November 2019 and with the stresses and strains over the past six months due to coronavirus, we really needed a break to relax and refresh and Judy’s beautiful home, fit the bill perfectly!😊� Three other “sets” of our extended family had each also rented other properties in Belfast and because we had all taken good care to arrive to Maine with negative coronavirus test‘s, we were able to visit with one another and enjoy a wonderful family time together. Judy’s home quickly became the go-to place for larger gatherings and we celebrated my niece’s 16th birthday with a wonderful outdoor cookout, which was so easy to do with the newer gas grill, the table and seating on the porch, the table and seating on the patio, and even a wonderful old-fashioned picnic table next to the patio.😊� We particularly loved the location of this home as it is just a 10 to 12 minute walk to downtown – a perfect way to connect with all that downtown Belfast and the beautiful harbor has to offer - from cute gift and clothing stores, to delicious restaurant‘s, to gorgeous views, to hiking the rail trail – this was our first trip to Belfast and it will definitely not be our last!! We can’t thank Judy enough for sharing her beautiful home for lucky renters like ourselves and we highly recommend checking this place out if you’re ever going to be in Belfast and are looking for a comfortable and well appointed place to stay!😊�

lovely, historic home with beautiful, large living spaces downstairs. During our stay we ranged from two - six guests, plenty of room for all. Great new Weber grill for cooking outdoors. Lovely neighborhood, walking distance to town, harbor and all that Belfast has to offer, even in Covid times. Thank you Judi for letting us stay in your wonderful home.

Judy's house is in a lovely neighborhood - walking distance to both downtown and Belfast City Park, but on a quiet dead end street. Plenty of living space on the first floor. Nice kitchen stocked with good cookware and essentials.

And Belfast is a pleasant and inviting community to visit. Most walkable with an interesting waterfront and plenty of shops and restaurants

Large spaces with great entertaining areas inside and out. Central Belfast and waterfront easily walkable and midcoast Maine in easy driving distance.

We enjoyed a relaxing and comfortable tow weeks in this lovely Belfast home. The house is well-outfitted with comfortable, clean furniture throughout. There are plenty of linens and towels, a television, WiFi, etc The kitchen is also well-equipped and clean with a breakfast bar and new appliances. Belfast is a great jumping off point to explore many beautiful towns and villages in central Maine: Camden to the south, Castine and the Blue Hills area to the north. When we were hanging aroundBelfast we enjoyed the many shops and restaurants as well as the park and the new River Walk along the harbor. We hope to return to this comfortable and charming house.

As a Belfast native returning home for a week to visit family, we thoroughly enjoyed this stay. The home was cozy, well stocked, and clean. It was in the perfect location as well. We look forward to our next stay when we return "home" once again. Thank you Judy and Tom!

Great House -- In town location, but you can walk down town to shop and eat. New large bathroom with two sinks and plenty of towels. Great family house. Two large bedrooms with total of 6 beds, den with sleeper sofa. The kitchen is brand new with a breakfast bar. The dining room is large with big family table. Lots of seating area in the living room. New outdoor grill and picnic table. We had a wonderful time. The town is charming and it is easy to sight see anywhere in Maine because Belfast to centrally located on the coast.
