Thorburn - Experience a classic ME vacation at this beautiful summer cottage

Just what we expected. Our 2 kids and 2 grandchildren visited 1 night and it was cozy with one upstairs bathroom.It was cozy upstairs with no heat in the bedrooms and outside temp in the 30s at night.Downstairs with heat and a full bath was very good.

Cute cottage with rustic charm and great views of the sound. Neighbors were very nice and the short walk to the dock was an added bonus. The stairs were a bit creaky / loud which wasn’t an issue unless it was evening hours.

Perfect Maine cottage. Love the porch, the field, view from the kitchen window, and the squeaky stairs. Beds were comfortable. Kitchen and baths were great. Convenient location. Overall, highly recommend.

The location offers truly beautiful views of the cove, which we enjoyed from morning until sunset. A huge bonus was having access to the shared dock and launch site, which made taking our kayaks out effortless. We also enjoyed exploring the many hiking trails in the area. Check out Devils Back Trail and see the harbor seals. The house was extremely clean and well-maintained upon our arrival. Loved having the grill and the spacious porch for our steak and chicken dinner. Our experience with the rental agency, Mainestay Vacations, was top-notch. They were very helpful and answered all of our questions quickly and concisely. The only issue we encountered was the noise from the floors. Since the only bathroom was downstairs, the creaky floors made it difficult for anyone to go to the bathroom at night without waking up the rest of the household. While this was a minor inconvenience, it did impact our sleep.Overall, it was a great stay, and we highly recommend both the location and Mainestay Vacations for their excellent service.

Its top feature for us was the big porch where we spent as much time as possible. The furnishings are basic but adequate. An issue with a broken coffee pot was taken care of promptly by the property manager.

What a special slice of life this cottage holds! Wonderful location. Tranquility and convenience coexist.

Lovely ocean view cottage with access to a dock for kayaking - dog heaven with wide open share field. House is a great Harpswell location, easy to Brunswick, Freeport & Bath - up on a hill so cool and breezy to sleep.

The location was fantastic; remote enough to enjoy the scenery but close enough to town and excursions to our favorite spots (Erica's Cooks, Giant's stairs, Bowdoin). Loved the walk to the cove with our dogs. The neighbors in nearby cottages were friendly and we enjoyed talking with them. The cottage is a little creaky but that added to its charm. It was very comfortable and well-appointed. The rental staff was nice to work with and communication was great. We look forward to visiting again.

House was clean and well equipped. Able to cook our 26 lobsters and 2 crabs with the huge steamer pots. The location and view of the bay were outstanding. A tranquil place to relax - the hammock on the wrap around porch was icing on the cake! Easy to get to local attractions off of the island area. Neighbors were friendly. We had an amazing time, and would definitely go back.

Immaculate, bright, comfortableWonderful porch and view. Area beautiful

Very beautiful place, I could see the water from my bed. Comfortable, quaint. Beds were good. Thanks f

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The view is magnificent. But the property should have been inspected to ensure that dead mice weren't lurking under the furniture, that ceiling lighting fixtures had lamp shades, that torn lampshades were replaced, that dead light bulbs had been replaced, and that dead bugs were vacuumed out of the window wells before we arrived.The refrigerator sang and wailed to us sporadically for 3 weeks. We were assured that it was fine, and to be honest, the fridge didn't die--despite its wails. The screen door still needs to be replaced, and the mismatched porch chairs were just sad.But, oh, that view!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cottage was super cute and perfect for our stay! My mom needs some extra help these days so the upstairs bathroom made it so she could go a bazillion times throughout the night without having to negotiate the somewhat steep staircase. The kitchen was perfect for making dinner and made us WANT to do the dishes with the gorgeous view. The property managers were very responsive with the small adjustment we needed. Would love to come back! Felt like the calm and inviting atmosphere we were looking for.
