My sister and I had such a wonderful time at your property. The house was clean and had wonderful views of the water. The house is bright and airy. The hot tube was another wonderful feature. Planning on staying there next year.
We stayed here with 6 of us. It was a beautiful home and great location. We did a few day trips to Acadia and also took the ferry to Isle Au Hout right from Stonington. The view was beautiful and we loved sitting out on the rocks watching for seal. We used the boardwalk to put in our kayaks and paddle boards, it was so peaceful. We also enjoyed soaking in the hot tub after hiking all day. Thanks for the wonderful experience, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
