I BOOKED THIS STAY FOR WORK AND IT WAS BEYOND MY EXPECTATIONS. Clean, inviting, easy to find, easy to access. Enjoying my coffee outdoors in the Adirondack chairs provided was a plus. Only thing I would say is the toilet itself is incredibly small.
This home accommodated us perfectly, not to small. 4 adults could move around comfortability, and nice roomy kitchen to prepare meals. Perfect location to all the attractions.
Amazing little house tucked away close to the river. It was very clean and nicely furnished. I had a great time staying here and it was very close to downtown Thomaston.
The house was very clean, comfortable and quiet. We had everything we needed for a great getaway. The location was perfect for everything we wanted to do - would highly recommend!
The house was exactly as described, very clean and comfortable! We really enjoyed our stay. The kitchen was nicely stocked. We were able to cook several meals.
It is hard to find a place in this part of Maine but it was great because it was near Rockport and Warren where we were visiting family. Had everything we needed and was very clean.
Quaint New England Cottage. Served our family well on our recent trip to Rockland.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication
Clean and met our needs. Minor things could be improved; full coverage curtain over the window in the full bedroom, nail holes and rips in wall in bathroom. Kitchen and Bathroom have notable slant in floor.
The house really doesn't have a river view....but we have stayed here 2 years in a row - to attend the Blues Festival in Rockland. Back yard is private but doesn't have any outside sitting area...so we brought our own...This house fits our needs even if location is off the beaten path.
Loved the property! Super convenient to everywhere that we wanted to go. Wonderful that we were allowed to have our dog. The western Sunset is absolutely beautiful. Thank you for your hospitality.
This is the perfect little house for a quick getaway. We were in for a family function but found the property to be perfectly located near so many cool hiking trails and quaint small towns. The house was stocked with all the needed creature comforts we needed and we were all comfortable. Jason was the perfect host and was great with resolving our check-in hiccup quickly.
We were able to settle in and start enjoying our vacation right away. All the amenities needed in a home were already in place.
Ncleaning was necessary
We really enjoyed the remote location of this property. It was very clean and quiet. Having just stayed at a similar property it would be nice if another a/c was added as the one struggled to cool the unit. Our previous rental had also invested in nicer amenities and did not go with the cheapest options like we noticed at this rental. Overall these were more minor details and the rental served us well.
Pros: - while there’s no river view from the unit itself, the river (and Henry Knox historical site) are a very short walk away- owner/manager very responsive to concerns. The portable a/c was leaking and he had it replaced very quickly- very comfortable reclining chairs in living room, though they cant all recline at the same time due to spaceCons: - right off the highway, which is very convenient for driving but made dog walks a little treacherous at times- The outside area looks way bigger in pictures and the backyard was unusable due to fire ants
