Cape Rosier, Maine 6 bedroom estate on Penobscot Bay. West views over Camden the hills

Gorgeous views, very spacious and clean. Well stocked beautiful kitchen. However I felt it was misleading because it said it had water access and really it doesn’t because the shore is rocky and our kids weren’t able to go in the water. There is a beach that they claimed was nearby. It’s about 1.5 miles so we still had to drive and they didn’t provide any beach chairs. The kids enjoyed the beach though. . The bedrooms were outdated and the beds especially the twin beds were very uncomfortable and the carpets were outdated and stained. It still a great place for our family to stay, but very remote so probably wouldn’t stay so far away from town next time. It would have been a 5 star property if the bedrooms and beds were updated.

The roomiest house I've ever stayed in. Had more rooms than people. Scenic and remote. Not much to do but enjoy the outdoors and relax. No issues with wifi and cell service considering. About 1.2 hours to Bangor airport to grab arrivals and departures. Pretty much had everything you need at the house. Would definitely come back again

Perfect home for a family reunion. Lovely views, well equipped kitchen, and fantastic round table in the kitchen which seats 10!!!

We had an amazing week! Everyone enjoyed the private beach at low tide and Bakeman Beach down the road. The views are breathtaking from both beaches! We all loved having our morning coffee on the deck or on the rocks at the edge of the water. We loved eating at Tinder Hearth in Brooksville (it was featured in one of The Lost Kitchen episodes). Make sure to make reservations on Monday morning of the week you want to go. Best pizza!! We loved all our day trips to Acadia, Stonington, Deer Isle, etc, but we loved hanging out at the house just as much as exploring the local towns. We definitely have it on our bucketlist to return one day!!

This is a great house for a large group. We had 12 total. The kitchen is huge and has everything to make all your meals - we did Lobsters twice with the outside set up. The kids enjoyed the upstairs with the ping pong - pool table and plenty of room to hang out. The porch is great to take in the ocean views - and the adults could enjoy a couple of different lounging spots. We got in the water easier at high tide and we brought wet suits. Blakeman beach is a great spot with berry picking near by. The preserve is an easy drive with some good hikes and plenty of spots to get in the water. Just be prepared to be isolated and far away and you will do fine. We also went to Acadia one day and also a few closer excursions. Blue Hill and Walker Pond are recommended. The ACs in the bedrooms help - but if it is above 85 - this is a hot house with the sun pouring on it. If there is a breeze - it will be better. This is a really great house to enjoy downeast Maine and Cape Rosier

If you don’t mind the remote area this house is a wonderful place to stay. Lots of room to spread out. Kid friendly.

This house easily accommodated our large group of 12, ages 18-65. Plenty of space. It was very hot for our week in August, and the house doesn’t have central air conditioning. So it was a bit warm. The location is gorgeous but it is very remote. At least 45 minutes drive to the nearest store. Restaurants are over an hour away on winding country roads. So bring your own groceries and be prepared to cook. The house is well equipped, but the kitchen sink could use an update. The faucet was very poorly located and too small, so it was tough to wash large pots. The separate ice maker in the bar was really helpful. We were hot and thirsty and went through quite a bit of ice. No access to the water from the house. We went to Bakeman beach (1.5 miles away) to swim. We went hiking and kayaking almost every day. The best part was the lobsterman 10 minutes away. He sells lobsters every day from 4:30-5:30 pm on Cape Weir Road. Just pull down the drive and stay right. Walk out to the floating dock.

We rented this home for our family of 12 to celebrate our 50th anniversary. We had 6 adults and 6 kids from 9 to 18. The home was large and beautifully appointed. There was so much to do in the evenings after exploring during the day. It was a true Maine experience. The game room kept us interacting and off devices. The kitchen is a cook’s dream. It’s quite a distance to restaurants, so we had fun cooking while looking at the magnificent view. The kids all wanted to stay and named it the best vacation ever… and they’ve been in some great vacations! I highly recommend this property. Also, the owner is easy to communicate with and very helpful.

This house was made for entertaining. We had 10 family members spanning 3 generations and the house provided plenty of room to spread out and several places where we could all gather together. The home is exceptional and the grounds are beyond beautiful. Every appliance you could imagine was available, along with an extra fridge, massive laundry room and even a shelf of toys that kept the littles entertained all week. It is very quiet and remote; a good hour and a half to Bar Harbor and 40ish minutes to the closest grocery store. We all loved this home and would surely return.

We had a lovely stay in the comfortable home. Wonderful views and outdoor spaces. Plenty of room for us all. The house could use some updates and the kitchen needs new appliances. It was great having two fridges! The area is spectacular with more lobster and seafood than you can imagine! Great family trip!

Spacious and great rooms for relaxation
