    A great place to spend time with family! Coincidentally, two family members stayed in this house a few years ago. They noticed some updates and were impressed.

    Beautiful quiet Maine getaway! Everything we could have wanted in the kitchen and throughout the house. The location is incredible, gorgeous views for the morning sunrise. My husband and I stayed with our parents and our 9 month old. Plenty of space, we were able to run some laundry, give my son a bath, and we all slept well. Close to restaurants, hiking, and we took a ride to Freeport and Brunswick. Highly recommend and would stay again!

    Truly lovely house in a fabulous location. We have been coming to Harpswell 2-4 times a year for a decade and this is by far the best place we have stayed. Roomy, beautifully decorated, private, and great views. Kitchen had everything needed to cook at home. Will be back!

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had 4-5 days of beautiful warm days, then one impressive thunderstorm! We brought our own kayaks and spent most days paddling right from the bottom of the stairs. The house was well-equipped and the bountiful outside comfortable chairs are a great place to relax after paddling or sight-seeing down the rest of the peninsula. We caught Beautiful the Carole King musical at the Maine State theater. Very enjoyable spot. There were just two of us, the house could easily accommodate at least 6. We hope to return!

    It is a beautiful spot to stay. The house is right on the water and it is very pretty. The house was very clean, there were most things that we needed there. There could’ve been a few extra utensils for cooking such as spatulas etc. Coffee was plentiful, which was a plus:) The towels were nice and fluffy. We loved staying at Windward and would stay again!

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Lovely indoor and outdoor space, well maintained and comfortable. Kitchen well equipped, beds comfortable, linen service was well worth it. Location requires a car to get around the otherwise residential neighborhood, but lots of local hiking trails and lobster purveyors nearby. The water view is filtered. The single discrepancy with the listing is that the private pocket beach is only a few feet wide at high tide, and at low tide is a large mud flat. However the grandkids spent hours collecting things, so it served well. The management responded immediately when the hot water system failed, and fixed it the same evening, a complex repair that needed a professional.

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Perfect for our daughter and her family on top floor and us grandparents on the first floor. Clean and spacious. We went for an endless walk on the quiet road each morning, kayaked on the water and ate outdoors each night on the picnic table without being bothered by bugs in Maine. Will certainly come here again!!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great open, airy home on the bank of Harpswell Sound, with great views. House was available earlier than expected and was very clean upon arrival. Household staples were available, beds comfortable, etc. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. Watching the waterscape and the wildlife was never boring. House was close to Brunswick, Freeport, Bath, Popham Beach and all Mid-Coast attractions.Harpswell is a beautiful town, with nature preserves and villages that remind one of a past era of seaside life.
