Spectacular Oceanfront Home on Beautiful Maine Coast

This home was incredible. The location is breathtaking and it’s a place you will never want to leave. The grounds are immaculate, the house is spotless and Kathleen has literally thought of everything you might need to have a wonderful vacation. The stairs down to the beach are great and it’s a wonderful rocky shore to explore. We had three generations and everyone enjoyed the location and home. This is a place we will come back to at some point, but for now the memories will have to hold us over. Thank you for sharing this amazing home with my family! We couldn’t have asked for anything more.

We love this home and the hosts that host us a couple times a year!! This time we got to enjoy the beautiful Fall foliage. Thank you once again for a wonderful stay in your gorgeous home and location.

Truly spectacular! Our group of 7 friends felt like we were staying at a friend’s house - it was that comfortable, clean, and well stocked. The kitchen has everything you need to cook in, including a great selection of spices. The views are amazing! We enjoyed coffee on the front porch while watching the lobster boats and seals in the morning. There are steps down to the shoreline, and we could have sat on the rocks all day. You’re about a 50 minute drive into Bar Harbor and Acadia, but there are also wonderful restaurants in Winter Harbor and nearby. And exploring the Schoonic Peninsula of Acadia is minutes away and gorgeous!Kathleen is a VERY responsive host and provided so many great recommendations.

When our family of 8 first pulled up, it was near sunset. The harbor was glittering like diamonds. When we walked into the home and looked through the windows to the back yard and into the harbor, it took our breath away. The beds were very comfortable, the water temp and pressure was great in the showers, and the house was clean and brand new. The house had everything I needed to cook every day…. seasonings, paper goods, pots, platters, all utensils and cutlery, tupperwear, cutting boards. The kitchen had two dishwashers which was very convenient. We were surprised with the s’mores kit left for the kids and thoughtful card. The kids ran down the stairs into the backyard to lay on the rocks by the shore to watch the sunset every evening. The lupines by the fireplace bloomed during my stay. Magical place !!!

This is our fifth time staying in this beautiful home that has everything you could ever imagine! The view is truly unbelievable even on a cloudy day.Thank you Kathy and Matt for sharing your stunning home with us once again! We look forward to our return this Fall.

This place was a dream. Beautiful home with stunning views. Close to Acadia but also away from the crowds. House had everything we needed. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home! We loved our stay here!

This home is by far the best rental we have ever experienced. Kathleen is a superior host and it’s clear she wants her guests to be 100% satisfied with their stay. The home is so well decorated and appointed with everything you could possibly need. The views are breathtaking (can be seen from almost every room in the home) and inside the home and outside it is so peaceful. We loved sitting outside watching nature and enjoying the only sounds of waves and birds skirting across the water. The home is so comfortable, we felt very much at home. The drive to Bar Harbor is about an hour but the drive is beautiful as there is much to see. Winter Harbor, while a small town has some nice restaurants (Tree House was our favorite) and small grocery store, LobStore and some cute shops. Loved seeing the deer along the roadside eating apples. Kathleen provides a pre visit digital booklet that helped us with some planning and the same material was provided in a nice bound book in the kitchen. We loved our stay and hated to leave the serenity of this home and property. If we find ourselves in Maine again this would be our first choice!

We had the perfect family vacation here this past week with our adult children and first grandchild. Everyone was enthralled with this stunning home and location. This is our third time here and we are returning next year. My husband and I can not come up with enough positive adjectives to describe this very special place. See our past 2 reviews. Thank you Kathleen and Matt for once again sharing your gorgeous home with us. All the best, Maggi, Joe and family

My family had an amazing week. The home was immaculate, beautifully furnished, and well stocked. The view was spectacular and abundant with local wildlife. We will definitely rebook. Thank you Kathleen for sharing your home!

This is our second time here for my husband and I, and we are bringing our adult children back in July. There are not enough words to explain how this place makes us feel other than Magical!! The house is stunning and Kathleen has thought of every little detail anyone could ever want. The view is incredible and you can feel your blood pressure drop the minute you walk through the door. My husband has a very demanding job so it can be difficult for him to decompress within a week's time, but Winter Harbor at Kathleen's, he is able to decompress the minute we arrive. We are very grateful we found this place and that Kathleen and her husband are gracious enough to share this beautiful spot with us!! With Gratitude. Maggi + Joe xo
