Thank you for the wonderful review and kind words. Delighted that you both enjoyed your stay at the Loft.
The loft was very cozy and perfect for a couples getaway. Well appointed, very clean and the bed was so big and comfortable with beautiful views of the cove. Alex and Siobhan were attentive hosts. We were close to Camden, Rockport and Rockland. Great dining choices and beautiful lighthouses as well as various art galleries. We would definitely return again.

Beautiful view, very clean. Bedroom is large with great view! Beach is nice to walk on and relax. Only downside is living space is small and traffic is loud. Close to every thing and owners were wonderful to communicate with!

In between Rockland and Camden, easy to access everything on offer. Kitchen a bit on the small side but everything works and the appliances are all new.

Just Wow!! Best view right from bed! Sunrise didn’t even require me to get out of bed to see it!! Spent hours looking at rocks when the tide went out. So much to do very close. We will be back!!

A wonderful property. Not huge but a great size for 2 people! The view was terrific (saw seals we believe just beyond the sandbar at almost every tide opportunity in addition to the birds at the shore - the woodchuck and the squirrel at times in the backyard). Amenities were great - appliances, furnishing, wireless & TV. The hosts were wonderful, great communication and some hints on local options. Would wholeheartedly recommend this property.
