Spacious Waterfront Summer Home with Swimming, Kayaking, and Sunsets

This is our third stay at this amazing property. The minute we walk in, we feel like we are home. It has an open yet cozy feel and we love the kitchen. It's all ready for lobster cooking too. The owners are just lovely and we just wish it wasn't so far from Oregon or we would go more often!

This was one of the best VRBO homes I have stayed in. The views of the sunset were beautiful, the house was extremely comfortable, it was in a quiet location, but it easy to get to the town of Bath. The hostess was so accommodating. I would definitely consider returning. It was my friends first time to Maine. They fell in love with it.

My husband and I with our dog - RV camped at Acadia for a week prior to this visit. For our second week of vacation, our 3 single adult children joined us at this property. I don’t know how long it’s been since we were all together for a week. The house, the property, the towns the beaches - everything was so special. We played lawn games, read, relaxed, kayaked and went to the beach. Every night, after sunset (!!) we played cards and games…it was a marvelous place .Our last night we went with Captain Joe Jerome (North East Salt Water) on his boat to his oyster nursery. We stood on a floating platform , in Casco Bay and learned all about oysters, their life cycle and body structure. Joe taught us how to shuck them and he gave us gloves and knives and we shucked and ate until we couldn’t possibly eat any more. As we motored back we got to enjoy one last sunset on the boat before leaving. Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful home. Jo-Ann and family

Absolutely perfect Maine vacation home! The space is so thoughtfully laid out for lounging, cooking, game nights, and importantly coffee mornings and happy hours on the porch overlooking the water and sunsets, listening to the boats and birds. The cove was nice for swimming at high tide, picnic and kayaking. You MUST check out the hammock by the water. We went to Bath for the Saturday farmers market which was so lovely, and spent a day in Portland too! 100% would book again.

Amazing Maine Coastal Waterfront Summer HomeMy family and extended family loved our stay in this spacious, summer home with lovely water views of the New Meadows River, gardens, and wildlife (deer, seal pup and bald eagle). The property and home is very well maintained. There was plenty of room for our family of 7. The views from the bedrooms and especially the living/dining room and wrap around deck are spectacular.We appreciated using the state park pass to go to Popham Beach and Reid State Park. Other highlights were sitting on the deck and on the lawn at sunrise enjoying our cups of coffee and tea, birdwatching, and lovely sunsets with family, visiting nearby Fort Popham, Bath, Bath & Iron Works, Five Islands and so much more. Communication with the host was excellent. We highly recommend this lovely and spacious property and hope to return. Thank you for your hospitality!

Beautiful location and home. Very responsive host. The sunsets are the best!

We had a wonderful stay at this house with extended family. We were a group of eight and we had plenty of room to spread out. We had quite a bit of rain but the house is so bright and living areas so spacious that it was not a problem being stuck inside. The house is part of a small, quiet community with a common dock area which was great for swimming and kayaking. On two evenings we had family from Portland come up for dinner and there was plenty of room for a large crowd to spread out. This is a special property with much of the original old house blended with new updates that make it very comfortable and bright. Communication with owner was excellent. We would absolutely rent this property again if ever up in the area.

We had some extended family coming for a long weekend and wanted to stay somewhere by the water. This house has a very beautiful and large main bedroom suite on the first floor, perfect for my elderly in-laws. The living/dining area was extremely spacious and comfortable with gorgeous water views, and very nice furniture. Same for the deck. The kitchen and second floor bedrooms are a bit more rustic, but that has its own charm and they are well appointed and comfortable. To get down to water's edge is a short, fairly steep hike, not for everyone, but you can enjoy the water view without going down there. Very pretty sunsets!

We have spent many vacations in Phippsburg area, but this was our first time on the basin side and it was great. If you enjoy having shops and restaurants close by, you may think you are too far out, but if you just want to enjoy having a home on the coast, you will love it.

This is a beautiful, well thought out, clean, lovely home. I can't say enough good things about it. It is a lived in home and not a cookie-cutter sterile empty place that is only there to make money. It is clear that people live here and that they love the house. The art on the walls is beautiful. Great location, nice beach, close to everything and yet beautifully secluded. We really loved our stay and thank you so much for sharing your home with us!

This was such a special place to spend our family vacation. We enjoyed kayaking, playing badminton, going to the beach and watching sunsets from the deck. We also loved spotting bald eagles and even an owl while we were there. The house was clean and well appointed. The owner was very responsive and pleasant to deal with. We highly recommend this location for a true Maine vacation!

We loved the feel and comfort of this lovely house, with old time character and modern conveniences. The beautiful water view and gardens, and kayak adventures made it extremely special. We hope to return!

We were happy with everything!! House was spacious and inviting. Having four bedrooms was important for us. Great yard for volleyball. Good access to the water. Please thank the owners for us!

We booked this wonderfully nostalgic home for a last minute getaway over the 4th of July. Everything about the house made us feel right at home. We spent most of our stay out on the deck with our feet kicked up. What a view!

Property owner had great information for local attractions, go Lobstering! The property is off the main path and the kayak and water access was great way to relax just would be nice to not have to walk down the road for beach access but the view was nice from the deck. The house is dated but clean and has all the amenities needed for a relaxing stay.

We absolutely loved our stay! Our group consisted of 6 adults and our golden retriever. Perfect yard for a dog. We loved spending nights on the deck looking at the sunset. The outdoor space is exactly what you want; enough space for everyone and a view of the water through the trees. The home was charming and cozy. Kitchen had all of the essentials. We made a lobster dinner and utilized the beautiful dining room table. Alwynne let us know that the washer wasn’t working and provided us with a $300 refund which was beyond generous. She had someone fix it a few days into our stay. Communication with Alwynne was fantastic. There is so much to do in Phippsburg and the surrounding towns. There is a private cove that was a short walk down the road that we had all to ourselves. We had a beach day and took the kayaks out. The neighbors were very friendly and provided us recommendations. There are few restaurants and a general store near by. Overall a wonderful experience! This was our second time in Maine and we will be back again!
