Phippsburg, Maine
With incredible views from sprawling decks, an open concept living & access to modern amenities come create a memorable experience on the coast of Maine.
A 4 bedroom property built out of an original mid-century dancehall & located in a quintessential fishing village about an hour north of Portland.
Close to area beaches, great hiking, a golf course and seasonal restaurants.
Note: This property is half of a duplex with complete privacy from the other side. If available, both sides can be rented together for a 7 bedroom, 2 kitchen compound
We enjoyed our stay, place was nice and met our needs. John, the host was readily available and helpful. Walk down the stairs and buy lobster and oysters fresh for dinner. Thanks for a terrific trip.
This property should be amazing. It’s in a great spot, with an amazing view of the water in phippsburg. Unfortunately, that’s really the only positive. The house is badly in need of maintenance. The dishwasher was broken, a chair was broken, kitchen stool was broken, armchair in the living room broken, no remote for the TV, a used back of tissues and dirty socks in the couch cushions. It was one issue after another. On top of that, the contact information on the listing wasn’t even for the current host, it was someone who didn’t manage the property anymore. Once we finally got the right contact information they were hard to get in touch with even though they assured us they were available. This doesn’t even cover the issues we had with check-in, or with the refund the host agreed to since the property didn’t have power when we arrived (nor had they plowed or shoveled, or provided any kind of support in the snow storm). Basically… if you want a great view and you don’t care if nothing works and there is no one to contact, this property is great. Otherwise steer clear.
Wonderful views. Great neighbors. Awesome time.
Perfection location. Plenty of room. The view is absolutely amazing. Communication was great. Enjoyed by all.
The house was advertised. Clean and spacious. The place could use a few updates but none of that detracted from the location, and views. Just stunning beauty. Remote quiet and beautiful. Bill the property manager was close by and a super nice guy.
Wonderful weekend with friends. The host could not have been more accommodating. It turned out to be the best weekend ever for our group.
We were really impressed by our greeting at this residence by Bill, the property manager. The residence was wonderful and very comfortable and the views are just breathtaking!
The views were 5-star. Could not ask for better. There was plenty of exploring around the tide pools for the children and parents. The property manager Bill was very attentive and helped to answer all the questions we had. The adults had a great time playing games and having laughs. There was plenty of space - although advertised to sleep 10, there was only beds for 8 (1 king, 2 queens & a set of bunk beds) no queen in the bunk room as advertised. There were some issues with the property - the kitchen sink is just not practical. It has a restaurant style set up with no faucet - it only a hand held sprayer that works only if you are squeezing it together. So, consequently, you only have one hand for washing dishes. It works with such force that it sprays you every time. The faucet should be changed to a normal faucet system. Until then, bring your rain poncho to do the dishes. The kitchen / house is not ideally equipped. We had to go out and purchase several items such as a can opener (the one there was rusted - we left the new one for the next guests), dish towels, hand towels for the bathrooms, hand soap for the bathrooms (the dispensers in each bathroom did not dispense well at all), a spatula, aluminum foil, plastic wraps (the basics) there was only one garbage bag that was in the garbage can, and we did not realize that until after our trip to the store 40 minutes away (although we could have gotten some of those things at the general store 9 minutes away). We could not lock the door when we left for the day as you can only lock it from the inside (unless there was a trick) - the password we were given for the wifi - from the recent email - was wrong, not even close to what it really was (thanks to Bill we got the right one). It became a comedy - what will be wrong next? The rental is NOT ideal for individuals that have mobility issues. There are stairs going into the house and all bathrooms and bedrooms are on the second floor. That all being said - we had a great time. The beds were comfortable - the views from the upper and lower decks were amazing. It could be a perfect rental if a couple hundred dollars were spent to have the little things on hand for guests. The space was fabulous - plenty of room - great table for playing games - I would recommend the rental, just bring the things you would not normally think you would need (especially the rain poncho for the use of the kitchen sink) lol.
Enjoyed 5 nights with another couple. Plenty of room and well stocked kitchen. Agree with others regarding kitchen faucet and tub in Master bathroom. TV had Roku but no cable. Really hard to figure out. Comfortable home with lots of separate space. Very remote. Nearest small store is 15 minutes away. Great location to spend a day in Kennebunkport , time in Boothbay Harbor and Bath.
Staying here worked out perfectly for us. The online photos were accurate. The kitchen was very well stocked with the right tools and a wide variety of pot/pans for use. We had a great time and I highly recommend.
