Dow Road Waterfront - Privately situated

Very clean and nice. Especially appreciated the privacy and the well-equipped kitchen. Very quiet area…which led to sighting many birds and a seal.Cabin is basic, but has what is needed.Sink drain in bathroom is very slow and needs to be cleared out.

An incredibly soothing location. This rustic cabin on the picturesque waterfront is wonderfully quiet.

Those of us who have spent summers in Maine since childhood can recognize when a cottage hits all the marks, and this one does. It’s just perfect. Not fancy. You don’t want fancy. But it is cozy and earthy and elegant, outfitted with what you need, access to quiet harbors, a good chair to sit by the sea in, a comfy bed with an ocean breeze. This spot is all that. My mom, a local, says it felt like home.If I’m lucky, I’ll get to go back! Grateful

Unfortunately the mold is still in the shower. We were without heat for 3 days. We did message, text, and call but it took a full day for someone to call us and it did not get resolved before we left. The cabin got to 50 degrees at night. The private location was lovely and peaceful.

We had four beautiful and sunny days at the cottage. This was our first visit to Deer Island. The cottage is located in a beautiful spot with an amazing view. It's near the Town of Deer Island. The cottage is clean, the yard is large, and the kitchen well stocked with cooking utensils. We are looking forward to returning to this delightful cottage and wonderful island.

It was a nice location. The mold in the shower is still not fixed. We would not return because of this. We don’t mind simple accommodations but a 5 star shouldn’t have mold in the bathroom. Your welcome letter is so general, you speak to all your properties at once we couldn’t figure out how to get in or find the key and we thought there would be a washer and dryer, I guess I missed that. Also, there was a soap pump on the wall in the shower but I couldn’t get any soap out of it. No soap to be found in the bathroom besides the shampoo. For safety there should be some type of rubber mat in the shower, once using shampoo the bathtub floor becomes slippery. And also the bedside lamps are horrific with one that just falls to the floor the minute you touch it. It really would be nice to have bedside tables for reading, water, etc

Nice location, beautiful view.

Our stay was lovely. It was perfect for us. The serenity, peace and quiet were just what we needed. The only downfalls for us were the tub and the bed lamps. Tub was clean but the caulking was black and scary. And the bed lamps were broken and hanging useless and gangly but you need them to see because it's dark in there. I would also have preferred a guide to the place in one spot as opposed to hunting around the house for the instructions. Some important ones were easy to miss. I hope this is seen as constructive I do not mean to disparage. All in all we really did have a great stay.

We had a lovely time staying at this cabin in Deer Isle- wish we had more time to enjoy the property as we were in town to attend wedding events- it was a beautiful, tranquil setting.

My husband and I chose this property to celebrate our 25th Anniversary and it was everything that we wanted and needed in a week away in Deer Isle. The property is beautifully maintained, private and spacious. We were able to access the shoreline everyday via a wooden staircase. We ate lunch facing the ocean in the Adirondack Chairs. The grill was clean and easy to use. The house is as advertised and we loved the rustic charm of the knotty pine. The ocean-facing windows provided beautiful salty breezes. The Kitchen came equipped with everything that we needed. The appliances worked well. The bed was comfortable as well as the futon. We were so pleased that we rented kayaks for the week from Maine Rental and Real Estate, who also served as our local resource for our stay. They were delivered and picked up and in great condition. We were seeking an opportunity to explore the area and lean into the quiet beauty of Down East Maine. The property and location hit every mark.
