Brooklin: soggiorni in alloggi sulla spiaggia

This was such a delightful, peaceful & beautiful place to stay. Shelby was extremely responsive & helpful. I appreciated that she went the extra mile to alert me to the Aurora Borealis & encourage me to see it from the point. When the power went out b/c of a local car accident, she kept me updated with information about cause & when power was expected to return & provided flashlights & a special battery powered lightbulb to provide light. I couldn't have asked for more!

This cottage is delightfully cozy in the winter and very charmingly decorated. It’s not just run of the mill decor. The lighting setup is especially great and was put together very thoughtfully. I really enjoyed being IN the spaces that have been created in the cottage - there are several different seating areas for reading a book or sharing a meal or hanging out. The location of the cottage is spectacular with beautiful views from the windows as well as the private garden, private porch overlooking the bay, and more. Fabiola leaves many helpful instructions (often amusing!) and also gives lots of recommendations about the area. In addition to that she is super welcoming, always available, and clearly wants her guests to enjoy themselves. She also lets the guests have privacy. I’m sure the cottage and garden are even better in summer simply because one can spend more time outdoors, but winter has its own beauty in Maine and the cottage is a wonderful place to experience it from.

Our recent stay at Gran Den was fantastic! Brady was super helpful, and communication was quick and clear. The cabin had all the amenities we could ask for and more. It's rustic and full of character yet incredibly comfortable and clean. The spacious layout made it very user-friendly. (The pictures are great but it’s eve better in-person.) The location in Surry is ideal, with Bucksport to the west and Ellsworth to the east, making it a perfect spot to explore the area. Highly recommend this for your next trip.

I could not overstate the beauty and peacefulness of this location. Good proximity to Bar Harbor and Acadia but private with stunning views. The description and photos are accurate, we found the host responsive and welcoming. Would definitely recommend!

Allen is very nice & very helpful of recommendation of things to do. His place is peaceful & relaxing.

We stayed at Alicia’s place, as we were traveling through, so we didn’t get to take full advantage of the lake. It was well appointed and made great use of the space. There was only 2 of us but a family of 4 would have no issues. It was extremely clean and cozy. We would stay again if in the area. Thanks Alicia

Our family of 9, ranging in ages from 2-94 loved our visit here!! They house is open, comfortable, kitchen is well stocked with what is needed for a range of cooking. Big family style pots made serving up dinner for 9 a breeze. The layout provides tons of privacy and with 4 full baths, no issues with larger groups. Located on a picturesque cove with granite, spruce and marsh grass, this island is magical. Many hours exploring the waters edge. I agree with past renters that the walk from parking to the house was long and on an uneven surface that's not comfortable to traverse. My mother (94 y/o) thought she could manage. It's too uneven for a walker. We walked with someone on each side of her nearly carrying her, glad it wasn't raining. My mother loved the house and location. It's required to take all your trash and recycables about 15-20 minutes away. Check times and days open, we made that mistake. Also you'll need the transfer station pass which the property provides.

Gorgeous location and very functional home. We were there during winter and loved the frozen water and lovely surroundings. Took nice walks. Look forward to coming back in summer!

My husband and I, and our two pups had a fantastic time in the Carriage House for a week. Part of a breathtaking private/secret compound on the water…with the most incredible private tidal pool. The place is so authentic, which is what we love about staying in ME when we can escape. We were so blessed to find Margaret’s place last minute. Margaret’s mother, Sally, and her husband were in the main Kate’s house. So so sweet they were to us and our girls. A dog paradise. We are foodies. Plenty of good restaurants around - just a few minutes to the adorable village of Stonington. Around the corner is one of the best restaurants in the country - Aragosta. We can’t wait to return…hopefully, in the Fall. A trip we will always remember. Thank you, Margaret & Family.

My return visit to the Boathouse was even lovelier than I hoped it would be. The location can't be matched by anything else I've seen. I enjoyed a September visit with my dog and was lucky to have pristine weather. I lived a very simple and healthy outdoors life and came home the better for it. The Boathouse is true to its description: it is simple and rustic and uncomplicated but well-equipped, and is perfect for one-and-dog, or for two people. A little coming-and-going from the neighboring houses meant that I didn't feel isolated. Margaret is truly an exceptional and friendly host who communicates promptly and clearly. I almost hesitate to share "my" Boathouse location with too many of my back-home friends because it feels so intimate and special. I already want to be back there. I offer my deep thanks to Margaret and to the place that I could - briefly - call home.

Three girlfriends and I stayed at Hillside for a week. The setting and location were absolutely beautiful. It was so quiet and peaceful and I loved walking the trail. The house was roomy and comfortable. We highly recommend!!

One of the best places we have ever stayed, with one of the best hosts. The home is thoughtful and peaceful, Arnold and his wife have done a beautiful job at cultivating a relaxing and restful environment. The scenery and area is amazing, perfect central location for exploring lots of different parts of Maine, or the house/land is good enough for a trip where you just stay in for a week. Couldn’t recommend this place enough, hope to be back sooner than later.

This place is amazing! So cozy and so comfortable! The lake was beautiful and we made plenty of use of the fire pit and kayaks. Stephen was so kind and responsive and made asking questions easy. I would recommend this place to everyone!

The house is stunning. I stayed here for a work trip. The location and the ambience were perfect to get my work done. I wish I had more time to explore the beach area. But my booking coincided with a lovely snow fall. The house is very cozy. The hosts were very responsive to all of my questions. The interior decor is lovely. And I slept really well on the master bedroom bed. I’d love to know the brand the mattress is. Thank you so much. I look forward to returning on a leisure trip when the weather is warmer. But the snow is absolutely lovely.

Thank you Mary and Noel! We had a great week balanced between exploring Acadia and chilling on the porch watching the tide and the birds. It was exactly what we needed. The house had everything we needed including a well equipped kitchen, which we made lots of use of. Highly recommended.

This was such a treasure of a stay and one of the best trips I've had in a long time, thanks to the joys of this beautiful home. It's located along the coast and near the adorable town of Camden, Maine, which we also fell in love with. As soon as you see this house, you will fall in love and walking in the front door to the view of the bay beyond the windows is an experience. The house had everything we needed and more, the beds were very comfortable, the fireplace was easy to use and such a treat, and the kitchen was well-stocked and more spacious than the photos make it seem. Tobias was a fantastic remote host, providing all sorts of recommendations and checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. They ensured our walk was shoveled immediately after a heavy snow and their family who owns the cooking school next door even offered us a tour during their off-season break. I cannot wait to come back with my mother and sisters.

Very clean, nice lake view, and is close to Acadia. Wish we had more time here! Highly recommend :)

Very cool yurt on a kelp farm! Right on the water and the chairs overlooking the bay for the sunset was worth the couple nights in itself. Trey is there to meet you and show you around the property. There were also very friendly property dogs that loved to say hello! The bathroom and shower were in a separate building but was clean and just a few feet from the yurt. There were windows in the yurt that make for a nice breeze through the yurt. The kitchen amenities made making coffee and heating up food a breeze. The host had great information about trails in the area and food recommendations.

This was a gorgeous stay with a great location for going to Acadia/Bar Harbor, while still maintaining privacy. I spent several hours during my one night stay admiring the design of the home (interior and architectural). I spent the night on the living room couch with a solid view of the bottom floor and with several large windows facing me, yet I still felt completely comfortable and that I wouldn't be disturbed or intruded upon. I was plenty warm the entire stay with the gas heater barely on. While there are some small details of the home that could use some touching up, *none of it* was a problem and still left plenty to love. I enjoyed sitting on the cut logs outside and listening to the crows and loons in the early morning (~6am). Everything felt as though it was placed with great intent and consideration, but still welcoming enough to get comfortable without worrying about ruining or disrupting it all. I would love to stay here again and highly recommend it to others!
