    The cottage was the perfect home away from home. Chuck and Lynne were warm and inviting, greeting us with homemade banana bread. Beautiful space. Kind hosts. Wonderful experience.

    The cottage is rustic yet comfortable; if you're looking for luxury and polish, consider elsewhere, but if comfort and simplicity is your priority, this is the place. The owners are nearby, welcoming, and available, without being the least bit imposing. The interior is large enough to have some space but small enough to be cozy; the kitchen is full enough to cook a complete meal; and the sun porch with a view is priceless. You can hear a pin drop at all hours and the neighborhood rightly expects it be kept that way.

    Chuck and Lynne were great hosts, we were meant when we pulled up to the cottage with smiles and a loaf of yummy banana bread. The island is beautiful and Maine is amazing. The cottage is like stepping back in time, very clean and meant all of our needs.

    Quaint cabin and so cute. Very clean and has everything you need. A great porch to relax in. Chuck and Lynne are very friendly and helpful owners. Lynne greeted us with delicious apple bread. Very quiet and peaceful area. Love this cabin!

    The property has a lovely setting on Ash Cove with nice water views and sunsets across the water. The cottage was exactly what we wanted, somewhat rustic, but very comfortable.Check in was fine with complete details about the cottage, functioning of the lights, fans, appliances, etc. The kitchen was supplied with an array of cooking utensils, plates, bowels, serving dishes all very serviceable, that complemented our needs for cooking in the cottage or preparing lunches for outings.There was really nothing that we needed that wasn't available.

    We loved it. It was just what we needed. The apple bread they brought over was amazing. The cottage itself was cute and cozy. It's right next to the ocean so you can hear the gulls as the sun rises. It was perfect.

    This is the 2nd time we have taken advantage of staying in this unique rustic Ash Cove Cottage. Once again, Chuck and Lynne did not disappoint. They were welcoming and made us feel right at home. The cottage was spotless and provided a perfect space during our stay in Harpswell. Thanks Chuck and Lynne :)

    The cottage was a great place for us to stay for 6 days in July. The knotty pine of the living room and the enclosed porch with views of Ash Cove were great places to relax.

    My BFF and I stayed here for a girl’s trip. Check in is SO incredibly easy. They meet you at the door! We had a welcome homemade apple bread (which was delicious). Cabin is very clean. The water pressure is fantastic and water gets hot quickly. There is no water access from the cabin, but the views are beautiful. No AC, but wasn’t needed while we were there. It was like staying at a family member’s house. Very relaxing.

    Chuck & Lynn were wonderful hosts, with a perfect 2 bd cottage on a relaxing pond/bay in harpswell. They made sure stay was smooth and even greeted with banana bread. The town of their cottage is quaint and beautiful with hiking and lobster shack galore, however a 20-25 min drive from lots of stores / interstate. Would recommend this property to everyone!
