We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful house on the ocean. Everything was so perfect for our small work retreat. The only issue we had at all was the downstairs bed was very hard. A memory foam mattress added would fix it and make his house absolutely perfect! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home!
Rudman's Retreat provided the quintessential Maine vacation. This is what made it perfect: a bright comfortable house, with a fully stocked kitchen, a dock to watch the sunset over the cove, a 5 minute walk to the the beach, and a super friendly and attentive host. Of the many properties we have rented Rudman's Retreat is at the top of the list.
Amazing property. Enjoyed our stay.
Great location. In general the property is good but it is a little tired in a few respects.
Location is lovely, home is clean and comfortable and rental process was easy.
We arrived and it was instant balm for the soul, the water is closer than appeared. The home is open and airy and had all you could need. We enjoyed our winter break home away from home....Thank you.
Love this place. It was our second time staying here. It's well maintained, very clean and tidy, and incredibly cozy. Lovely for a winter week in nature.
The serene and lovely views matched with just enough snow on Christmas Day to make everything a bit magical. The well supplied kitchen made our dinner a breeze.
This was Nirvana. Reserving this property next year. We didn’t want to leave. Perfect location. Peaceful, beautiful. Can’t say enough about how wonderful it is!
The property was better than the pictures! Stocked with all the necessities, very clean and comfortable. So peaceful and relaxing. Loved the family of turkeys that visited every day. Will definitely rent this house again.
