Comfy and scenic

Property was perfect for a stay of two. Morning coffee was enjoyed with a beautiful view of the water and comfy patio chairs. Second story bedroom loft had a wall of windows to showcase the ocean view. It was noted that the property owners put thought into every amenity.

Great stay

Alex and Siobhan were great hosts and very communicative. Property was as expected. While updating the house to electronic check in would be slightly easier, Alex was exceptionally helpful and understanding of our late arrival, and check in and check out were simple and easy. Would happily recommend or stay again.

Great view and shore access

The bath and very comfortable bed are a flight of stairs upstairs. Everything looked new. Shampoo and body wash are not provided but there is a grocery store nearby. Dishes and utensils must be hand washed. There’s a dish drainer below the sink to help in the process. A luggage rack or two would help.

10 out of 10!!!!!

The Loft is very conveniently located ~ half way between Portland and Bar Harbor just off Highway 1 and over looks Glen Cove. Great location to stay if you want to do day trips to any of the local towns or travel travel to Bar Harbor / Acadia or down to the shops in Freeport. Inside and out it was well maintained and clean as a pin. Excellent communication with Alex and Siobahn and they answered all of our questions and gave us some great suggestions on local sites to see. The view from the deck and the bedroom is amazingl!!! King size bed was very comfortable. Highly recommend and we plan on returning next year!!! Andy & Sandra

Great ocean views!

This property is just as advertised. We found it very clean and quiet. The ocean and beach area were great. A little tweaking of furniture allowed for great views. The only downside is the loveseat is not comfortable. Hosts were responsive. No issues at all. Recommend brining shampoo and body soap and coffee.
