A great spot for a group of friends to gather. Cozy living spaces and comfortable beds. 6 fully private bedrooms, one is at the bottom of the stairs in the basement so will be accessed by all who stay downstairs. Lack of blind for the sky light in the master bedroom and in the downstairs living area with futon made it difficult to sleep past the early sunrise. Plenty of bottled water was included as the house uses well water, which is very metallic. We met the owner, Pam, at her ice cream shop down the road and she is lovely and easy to communicate with.

Harpswell trip October 2022

This property was lovely and cozy, except you have to walk through unfixed space to get to rooms in the basement and adult kids complained about too many spiders down there. That been said, I most certainly will rent it if ever in that area, host was great responding to all my request.

Fantastic View!

I take my adult children on a vacation over Labor Day in lieu of Christmas presents. This location was perfect for 6 adults with plenty of room to spread out. The balcony was spacious and overlooked the water. The neighborhood was quiet and somewhat secluded. There were plenty of utensils to cook breakfast and lunch. Of course, we ate dinner out to get that tasty Maine seafood. I highly recommend the Dolphin Marina restaurant and their seafood risotto. YUM! We had a couple of communications with the Douglas family that were immediately addressed. We also like to play pickleball (as the whole world seems to be doing!) and there was a court not 10min away. I would highly recommend The Soundings as a great Maine get away!

Great Space for a Large Family

I stayed here with my family and sisters, and one of my sisters brought her husband and two children. The house had enough space for all of us to be together and yet have space to ourselves. We had a lovely time. We came for my daughter’s graduation and would recommend this space to anyone.

Sister’s Getaway

We really enjoyed staying at this home. We were 7 Sisters on our annual getaway and each had a bed on their own. We appreciated having a washer/dryer and dishwasher. The kitchen had all of the things we needed including all the dishes for a lobster feast. There was plenty of room on the porch for us to gather. The kitchen table had 6 chairs but we easily fit a 7th chair with plenty of room. There was plenty of hot water for all of us to shower. This home has 2 kitchens which was great because we brought our own meals to prepare. Between the 2 refrigerators, we were able to keep our food chilled until we were ready to use. Two of the siblings are always up early, They stayed at the lower level. The rest of us stayed at the main level and on the 3rd level where the master suite is. The basement bedrooms didn't have air conditioning but it was cool enough at night to open windows. The water from the faucet was yellow but the owners provided us with a tank of spring water. You could get cold or hot. We drank one of these tanks and more were provided in the front closet. We found a cupboard with several spices including salt and pepper. We used the fire pit one evening. The chairs around the pit are plastic and the ground uneven. It made it difficult to find solid ground to sit and enjoy each other's company. One of my siblings fell sideways causing a domino effect. We had a good laugh and decided to reconvene on the deck. Would definitely stay here again!

Very nice house with water front view

We were 11 who stayed at this house for 4 nights. The house is wonderful and has everything u need including large garage that is empty in case u want to park your car in there. There were some stuff we had forgotten to bring but the house had it!! While we were there we contacted Pamela for some issues and she responded very quickly at all times. The Douglas family who mange the house are wonderful people! We were there while it was very hot. Note that not all bedrooms had AC and so it made sleeping difficult with the hottemperatures we had during our atay

A wonderful getaway

It's funny looking back at the pictures after staying there. Aside from some Adirondack chairs on the deck that have since been replaced by a table and chairs, they pretty much sum this place up. We have 9 adults and a 6 year old that stayed there. Unlike other places we've stayed, everyone who needed it had their own room. The kitchen had everything that we needed for a wide variety of meal prep. There was plenty of sitting areas for people to read and so on. One room is located at the bottom of the stairs to the downstairs, but my daughter can sleep through a lot so that didn't bother her. Once you get downstairs, it amazed me how much space there was down there. Two other bedrooms, lots of closet space, a full bathroom, a second kitchen and living area and a separate door out to the yard. The owner also owns a local ice cream business that we had visited last year and this. She was very nice to talk with. She even includes coupons for the ice cream place (which we forgot!) Her son checked up on us and dropped off some jugs for the water cooler (bubbler). The place (along with so many other places up there) is on well water and has a strong iron content to the water, so it is nice they provided this for drinking water. This is pretty common for the area. If I was to nitpick - the color of the house in the photos seemed a bit more blue than it actually was. Really, the place was that wonderful and we've already booked for next year.

Perfect family stay

We loved this place It is safe and clean and quiet. The property manager lives right across the street and is helpful and kind and welcoming It was the perfect place for a family reunion and Harpswell is just the most wonderful town . It is walking distance ( one mile) to the most lovely coffee shop and bakery and the ocean views are lovely we saw bald eagles and osprey every day. The grass backyard allowed for lots of outdoor games And the fire pit was a great way to unwind at night The kitchen has every thing you would need to cook for 14 people for the entire stay. Good landlord good house good location. We are so grateful to the Douglass family!

Wonderful place for a family reunion

We had a family reunion in Harpswell and filled the house. We couldn't have asked for a better location and Pammy was an attentive host. The view is spectacular from the back porch, and we spent many relaxing hours out there. Don't miss the opportunity to visit Pammy's Ice Cream Parlor just down the road either!
