Just far enough off the road, great for dogs to play outside and not have to worry about them, the grass was nicely mowed all around, a nice woods walk . Inside the king bed was very comfortable would have liked some draws to put clothes in bedroom. Small smart TV , so remember to bring your Netflix, Hulu, Prime passwords with you. Kitchen was good the owner had left coffee, tea, OJ , milks of all varieties , and tons of bottled water . Deck had nice rocking chairs to sit outside, remember to bring bug spray or get citronella candle. It was very centrally located to Bath and lots of local drives as there were many informational brochures, that were there from the information center in Bath . Take a drive down Arrowsic to Five island lobster, great view and drive also visit Reid state park you will need bug spray. Then to Harpswell drive to Lands End but also walk Giants Stairs and eat at the Dauphin Restaurant beautiful views and the owners check on every table. A nice brewery was Fight Deck brewery Brunswick 15 mins from cabin and Wild Oats Bakery and cafe scratch bakery across the parking area.We will be back as cabin a great price and good location.
It’s a perfect place to reset and remember the simplicity of life. The porch is incredible and my dog loved it as much as I did. Owners were extremely gracious and had water, milk, coffee and tea.. even orange juice stocked in the fridge. This is cottage is wonderful.
Nice private location, liked the porch, liked the property, the host was very helpful, great place to bring pets, my corgis are in one of the pics.
Property as advertised. Photos are very accurate. Good place to stay if traveling with a pet.
It’s such a fantastic, sweet place. It’s simplicity allowed us to slow down. I haven’t rocked so much on a porch all my life- this place is a 5 star if you want that perfect cottage to slow down and reset. Thank you.
We rented this cabin because of it’s great reviews, the photos of the property, and mainly it’s location (close to Portland, the ocean, state parks etc). It’s a very clean and well kept property. The online photos really don’t do it justice. Very private and secluded yet close to town if you need to run quick for supplies. Though we really didn’t need to contact Mark that much, the time or two we did, he was quick to respond a very helpful. If we do return to Maine for another vacation (and if my wife has her way we will) we would definitely rent this property again. Thank you Mark for allowing us to enjoy this cabin.
It was a quintessential Maine experience, just what we needed, quiet, dark secluded, with ocean breezes. The cottage was just big enough. Close to many beautiful beaches (but the ones that would accept dogs were limited to one).. Will look forward to returning next year if available. Be sure to bring your insect repellant, the mosquitos are abundant.
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our weeklong stay at Lilac Cottage. The cottage was very clean, the owners gave us their contact info and were open to being available to us if needed, the WiFi was strong, and the location is fantastic. We got to watch deer and turkeys every day right on the front lawn. We were close to town and the beach but felt like we were secluded. It’s a great private location that allows for true rest and relaxation. I highly recommend staying here.
I couldn’t be happier with my experience! James and Mark were both very professional, friendly, and responsive. The cabin was clean, and everything worked. The property was perfect for me because it was a short drive to great Maine towns, coastal beaches and some amazing hiking AND there we no neighbors anywhere close by — so my dog, Fern, was able to really stretch her legs on the property. I very much look forward to returning!
Enjoyed our stay at Lilac Cottage immensely. Would return in an instant. A classic, clean as a whistle, Maine cottage on a hill in the midst of spruce and pine. A totally private, quiet setting yet minutes from Bath, Reid State Park, Five Islands Lobster Co. -- what more could one ask. Two wicker rocking chairs on a lovely porch. Well equipped. Reasonably priced. Good WiFi. Good heat. The owner and property manager were extraordinarily solicitous, accessible, friendly. We will be back to Lilac!
