Location is great, but lacking hospitality

House is in a nice area and convenient to stores and restaurants, but the property itself needs some TLC. There is a big yard and patio, but the waterfront view is mostly obstructed by trees. House interior and fixtures are basic; we were expecting better quality for the money. Owner never made good on promise of a lobster dinner that we planned on for dinner our last night there. Disappointed.

Love staying at Glen Cove

This is the second time we have stayed at this house in Glen Cove. The house suits our family well, including our dogs. We found the house spotless when we entered it. The living space works well for the six of us including our young grandsons. And waking up to the view of Penobscot Bay each morning is worth every minute of our ride from New Jersey. The location is also what attracted us back to this house. We love being down the road from the Breakwaters Lighthouse. We also love visiting Camden and finding new towns and lighthouses to visit along Maine's beautiful coast. We look for local hiking trails and beaches and find them all. This year, we opted not to head up to Acadia, but Acadia is accessible to this house. We have been very successful when reaching out to Chris who manages this property. He has always been very responsive to our questions and needs. We are hoping to stay here again in the future.

Fine stay

There are some basic things holding this rental back. As mentioned in previous reviews there is inaccurate information provided upon checkin. The wifi information was not correct in our email but able to email the owner and obtain the correct info. There were only 4 kitchen seats, thin duvets with no extra blankets and no trash can for the main bathroom. The kitchen was well stocked but no dishwasher detergent so you should plan to bring some. The rental was surfaced cleaned but could’ve been better. The location is amazing being close to the breakwater lighthouse with a large yard and view. Some positives and negatives which equate to an overall fine or meh rating.

June visit

The location of the house is beautiful, the neighborhood quiet and close to amenities in the town. The house is comfortable but could use a couple of things we missed: a broom and dustpan, extra pillows in the living room (furniture is very deep for short people!) and some games besides puzzles. Our stay was lovely, with good weather. The Farnsworth is a must-see, and a schooner sail in Camden was great. We enjoyed the restaurants. Found the electric range not easy to use with little heat modulation. Location and home just fine.

THE PERFECT PLACE THAT SOOTHES THE SOUL!

This was indeed was the best ever VRBO at which we had the most relaxing and enjoyable vacation. The views of Rockland Harbor from this property were beyond words. Tranquility and peacefulness are two words that describe our stay at this VRBO. The host manager could not have been more responsive to any question or concern that we had. The response back was quick and thorough. The house was very spacious and nicely laid out. Morning walks to Rockland Breakwater Light House was just a 5 minute walk and a perfect way to start out our every day. Do yourself a favor and book a stay.....you won't be sorry. A perfect VRBO for a perfect get-away for us! Many thanks.
