Property had beautiful views of the surrounding area. Very spacious living areas, bedrooms and bathrooms. Could use a bit of a cleaning in some areas and better organization of outdoor furniture.
I was born and raised in Maine but now live in Florida. Took my husband and showed him where I’m from. Loved the house. Everything was perfect for us. Much needed break, couldn’t have been happier

The location and views are great… beware this house has been well used. Photos are old its dirty and I would say really dirty. If you are cooking there are really only 4 pans with the teflon gone, coffee maker pump was broken. Chairs are junk on the porch and the hammock was shredded. Sorry but this one is a no go if you expect anything at all.
We enjoyed our stay, place was nice and met our needs. John, the host was readily available and helpful. Walk down the stairs and buy lobster and oysters fresh for dinner. Thanks for a terrific trip.

Terrific place, great views...
This was a great experience. The house is beautiful and so are the views. The kitchen is exceptionally well stocked with settings for 14, including wine glasses, cutting boards, mixers, colanders, larger serving bowls, pitchers and pretty much anything a person could hope to find in a rental home, and the gas fireplace along with the spiral stairs leading to the third floor lookout were a hit with all our guests. I should also mention that the personal service was exceptional, with an owner that answers his own phone.

Great location… but that’s it.
This property should be amazing. It’s in a great spot, with an amazing view of the water in phippsburg. Unfortunately, that’s really the only positive. The house is badly in need of maintenance. The dishwasher was broken, a chair was broken, kitchen stool was broken, armchair in the living room broken, no remote for the TV, a used back of tissues and dirty socks in the couch cushions. It was one issue after another. On top of that, the contact information on the listing wasn’t even for the current host, it was someone who didn’t manage the property anymore. Once we finally got the right contact information they were hard to get in touch with even though they assured us they were available. This doesn’t even cover the issues we had with check-in, or with the refund the host agreed to since the property didn’t have power when we arrived (nor had they plowed or shoveled, or provided any kind of support in the snow storm).
Basically… if you want a great view and you don’t care if nothing works and there is no one to contact, this property is great. Otherwise steer clear.
The place was clean on surfaces.... but the microwave and oven have a layer of grease and cobwebs across the top. The outdoor hammock unusable as there was a hole in it. The outdoor furniture was broken as well ..missing legs. Smoke alarms missing in living area. The area was great. I would love to give 5 stars, but for that kind of money the place should be clean. Some windows couldn't be opened or closed as cranks broken. The whirlpool tub had a sign that looked about 3 years old saying out of order ...sorry for inconvenience. Whole house with 6 adults and only 6 coffee pods.
The house was advertised. Clean and spacious. The place could use a few updates but none of that detracted from the location, and views. Just stunning beauty. Remote quiet and beautiful. Bill the property manager was close by and a super nice guy.
We were really impressed by our greeting at this residence by Bill, the property manager. The residence was wonderful and very comfortable and the views are just breathtaking!
The views were 5-star. Could not ask for better. There was plenty of exploring around the tide pools for the children and parents. The property manager Bill was very attentive and helped to answer all the questions we had. The adults had a great time playing games and having laughs. There was plenty of space - although advertised to sleep 10, there was only beds for 8 (1 king, 2 queens & a set of bunk beds) no queen in the bunk room as advertised.
There were some issues with the property - the kitchen sink is just not practical. It has a restaurant style set up with no faucet - it only a hand held sprayer that works only if you are squeezing it together. So, consequently, you only have one hand for washing dishes. It works with such force that it sprays you every time. The faucet should be changed to a normal faucet system. Until then, bring your rain poncho to do the dishes.
The kitchen / house is not ideally equipped. We had to go out and purchase several items such as a can opener (the one there was rusted - we left the new one for the next guests), dish towels, hand towels for the bathrooms, hand soap for the bathrooms (the dispensers in each bathroom did not dispense well at all), a spatula, aluminum foil, plastic wraps (the basics) there was only one garbage bag that was in the garbage can, and we did not realize that until after our trip to the store 40 minutes away (although we could have gotten some of those things at the general store 9 minutes away). We could not lock the door when we left for the day as you can only lock it from the inside (unless there was a trick) - the password we were given for the wifi - from the recent email - was wrong, not even close to what it really was (thanks to Bill we got the right one). It became a comedy - what will be wrong next? The rental is NOT ideal for individuals that have mobility issues. There are stairs going into the house and all bathrooms and bedrooms are on the second floor. That all being said - we had a great time. The beds were comfortable - the views from the upper and lower decks were amazing. It could be a perfect rental if a couple hundred dollars were spent to have the little things on hand for guests. The space was fabulous - plenty of room - great table for playing games - I would recommend the rental, just bring the things you would not normally think you would need (especially the rain poncho for the use of the kitchen sink) lol.

Large open home
Enjoyed 5 nights with another couple. Plenty of room and well stocked kitchen. Agree with others regarding kitchen faucet and tub in Master bathroom. TV had Roku but no cable. Really hard to figure out. Comfortable home with lots of separate space. Very remote. Nearest small store is 15 minutes away. Great location to spend a day in Kennebunkport , time in Boothbay Harbor and Bath.
Staying here worked out perfectly for us. The online photos were accurate. The kitchen was very well stocked with the right tools and a wide variety of pot/pans for use. We had a great time and I highly recommend.
The property is pretty much as advertised. Nice quaint little coastal Maine village with a beautiful, peaceful view. Nice space. The property manager, Bill, is amazing. You are in good hands.
What a wonderful place. I was here with my three adult children and their partners. It was a great space to all be together, but also with enough room to stretch our legs. The village where this house is located is adorable. It feels like a traditional Fisherman's Village in that there are several Lobster pounds in the area, but there are also a number of vacation homes. It feels like the kind of place where the houses have been in the same family for Generations. The house itself is very comfortable with a very well-equipped kitchen. I say this as a member of a big-time foodie family that loves to cook. We had a couple of minor maintenance issues which the property manager, who happens to live two houses away, took care of immediately. Really nice guy and very responsive. The only real disappointment was that the great big upstairs jacuzzi tub is not working. Really, more of a minor inconvenience than anything else, but it would have been nice. There are lots of things to see and places to go on the Phippsburg peninsula. 25 minutes to Bath, 30 minutes to Brunswick and 1 hour to Portland. We would certainty come back!

It was a very nice house with a beautiful view.
We enjoyed ourselves very much. The house is well kept and very clean. The lock on the front door does not work with the code given, but it seems to be a very safe neighborhood so it was not a problem.

Family Gathering on the coast of Maine
We had a lovely stay at Sou'wester in West Point. The accommodations were perfect for our family of 8. One of the bedrooms had bunk beds which we had not known ahead of time so we had to do some family rearranging since my 90-year old mother-in-law needed a room to herself. Also, we wish there had been a bathroom downstairs because it was difficult for my mother-in-law to go up and down the steep stairs. They were carpeted which was helpful. The downstairs space was large and comfortable. When we had a dinner with 20 people it was perfect. We had some family members on the outside deck and outside porch and some around the long harvest table. The kitchen sink was a big stainless steel industrial sink. Somewhat different. The faucet was difficult to use because it only had a sprayer and if you wanted a drink of water you had to spray the water into your glass. I would suggest the place add a large cutting board. It only had a tiny one. The only other issue we had was it was extremely hot in the master bedroom with all the glass doors and the afternoon sun. We did find a fan which helped. All in all, we had a wonderful stay with our family. The location was charming and beautiful. The views were a true taste of Maine.
