Our family had the most relaxing time here. We spent hours every day down by the water. Our grandkids, 6 and 3.5 enjoyed playing with sticks, collecting rocks and shells.We did 2 great hikes and enjoyed Camden. The location of this property was amazing and the setting is beautiful and private. The house was perfect for all of us, we had everything we needed. Will definitely book again!

What a wonderful cottage this was for our family gathering. A beautiful natural setting of trees and ocean also very private and quiet. Lovely to sit on the deck listen to the ocean and have a meal. It feels remote while offering a quick drive into Camden for all our needs. We all loved it from my 14 yr old granddaughter to our elders. I've already booked it for next summer.

This was our first time visiting Maine. We picked the best town and best home to stay in! The home was so beautiful! Our favorite place to hangout was out on the deck watching the sunrise in the morning. It was so peaceful. Maine is so gorgeous in the fall!

We had a wonderful vacation and loved our accommodations. The house is perfectly located to visit the wonderful areas of Maine and the town of Camden has plenty of places to shop and eat. The house was plenty big for the 7 adults and we loved the access to the water. Look forward to going back! Thank you Kerry for a great time.

Wonderful home away from home

We had a great week at this beautiful home. Spotless and comfortable for all, it was a perfect home base for our explorations of the mid-Maine coast.

Picturesque Maine!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this sweet home. The location outside of Camden was perfect for privacy and family time. We enjoyed trips into Camden and traveling up the coast. We were very comfortable in this home (7 guests) and loved the beachfront setting.

Lovely house and location

We really enjoyed our stay at this house on Penobscot Bay, it was just lovely getting up in the morning and sitting on the deck overlooking the water. We took advantage of the Kayaks, beach area and firepit during our stay which enhanced the visit. This was probably the best equipped house of all the ones we have rented with everything you could need in the kitchen. The local town of Camden is great with many good restaurants.

The Maine Coast

Camden is a wonderful coastal town. The house is perfect for a family stay, well equipped and pleasant. The grandkids loved kayaking in the cove. Also nearby to a sandy beach and the Camden State Park for hiking. The driveway could use a little TLC if you have a low ground clearance sedan.

The owners have thought of everything! This is an awesome house!! It is just as described. Very clean, up to date, peaceful and just perfect in every way! The location was perfect for us. We used it as a home base and ventured out to Portland (lighthouse), Moosehead Lake (Moose Safari), Deer Isle/Stonington (very cute fishing town and settlement quarry preserve), Bar Harbor, Acadia, Cadillac Mountain to list some highlights in addition to being just a short drive to Camden and Rockport. This is a beautiful part of the Country and the food was amazing in every waterfront restaurant in every town we visited.

Family Vacation

We love vacationing in Maine as my husband was born there. This time we spent two weeks with two of our children and their families. We are thrilled to have found this house. It is attractive, immaculate and well stocked. Any questions were promptly answered by our host. It far exceeded our expectations.

Secluded Location Near Camden

Had a great time our week in Sept. House is well stocked with everything you could need in kitchen. Use of the kayaks was a bonus. Explored the surrounding area with trips to various lighthouses, Camden Hills St Park, took sailboat cruise out of the harbor, day trip to Acadia. Ended up leaving a day early due to approaching remnants of hurricane Lee which is always a risk being on the ocean.

Maine visit in Camden

The 6 of us had an excellent time. The property was well stocked, very clean, easy check in and check out, and had comfortable beds. This is a great location about midway between Portland and Acadia National Park. We enjoyed Camden and its nice shops and restaurants. There is an incredible view from Mount Battie just down the road from the rental. Plan to visit Pemaquid Point lighthouse. It is a bit of a drive but the ocean waves and view are worth it. Then eat at King Eiders Pub in Damariscotta. You have to order the cupcake for dessert.
