A great place to stay for our family of 11. The kitchen was well equipped with dishes other kitchen needs. There were plenty of spices to use. The house was very clean and close to the attractions we wanted to see.
If you are looking for a large property to share with a large family or group of friends, the White House is perfect. The location is great and the views from the deck and yard are fantastic. The large rolling lawn is beautiful. Pool was a great added asset. The house itself is highly functional for a group of 12. We hosted a family reunion there, with other family members staying in the vicinity. This house with its swimming pool, beautiful great room and a very large, separate rec room were all prefect to serve as our central hub during our stay.
The home is spacious with many different places to sit. The kitchen is a beautiful room and the primary place we gathered when the whole group was together .The property and view are beautiful and again there are many opportunities for privacy or group enjoyment.
We had a total of 9 guests. We occupied 5 befrooms. Each bedroom was bery attractive
We hosted out of town family & friends for a wedding weekend on the beautiful grounds of the White House. The owner could not have been friendlier, more responsive, or more accommodating. The pride he takes in this historic property was evident in every detail. The house held many antique furnishings, yet was comfortable & welcoming. The massive & well equipped kitchen with generous refrigerator & freezer space made entertaining our out of town guests a breeze. The kids enjoyed lawn games in the yards, s’mores around the fire pit & splashing in the giant heated pool.
The conservatory and rolling lawns leant themselves to a magical & memorable rehearsal dinner with the full moon reflecting on the Sheepscott River. There was plenty of outdoor seating scattered around the lushly landscaped yards, patio & porch.
The White House was definitely a highlight of everyone’s weekend in the quaint village of Wiscasset, Maine. I can highly recommend…it’s the perfect spot for a smaller event or family reunion get-away.
The house was largely historic and charming with beautifully landscaped gardens. Furthermore, modern updates and additions allowed for familiar conveniences and comfort . The view of the river habor was fantastic. We enjoyed many lawn games on the expansive lawns. A walk into town was slightly adventurous but fun. Wiscasset is well positioned in Maine for several day trips. On whole, my family had a terrific stay at The White House!
