Great Location in Maine

This home has a wonderful location with an awesome view of the ocean and the coastline. Plenty of room for our family of 14. The home is in great condition, and the communication with the owner was excellent.

Absolutely stunning place

The house was amazing in so many ways. It was large enough for a big family gathering; there were a multitude of places to find a quiet place if needed; the outdoor seating options were varied; the kitchen was well stocked and plenty of seating for everyone; the ADA bedroom makes it so much easier with elderly members; the location to beaches and the Nubble lighthouse were just a short walk, etc etc! We had a fabulous time and super comfortable stay and would highly recommend this property.

Fabulous!!!

This was the second time I brought a group of clients to this wonderful property. The house is fabulous and the setting, looking out over vast expanses of water and sky is incredibly beautiful and inspiring. We were all super-comfortable and happy! And we had wonderful spaces for this to be a powerful week of self-discovery and fun.

Perfection

Our family had a wonderful stay. The house was perfect. During our time in Maine, the weather was very cold and rainy and the house was the perfect refuge from the storm. The views were magical as we watched the huge ocean waves. We all had a wonderful time and hope to return to the house for a future vacation. .

Amazing experience!

We just spent a week at Steve’s house for my father’s birthday party. The views were fabulous from every window, and the house was impeccably clean and well stocked with everything we needed and beyond. Everyone (from 8 to 80 years old) had a fantastic time. I highly recommend this place. Can’t wait to come back for a summer vacation!

Great Celebration Venue

My wife and I celebrated my 50th birthday with 8 of our friends and we had a blast. The house sits right on the ocean and there is plenty of space to relax and spread out. The downstairs with the large family room is awesome and the girls loves the hot tun and watching the sun come up. Communication with the management team and owners was amazing and they did all they could to help. We will be back!

Foster Bluff midweek get away!

The location/scenery is breathtaking. The house is carefully situated so as to provide some nice privacy on back deck, (even within the tight neighborhood it sits in.) Beautiful! Some things to keep in mind regarding the "amenities": 1) living furniture is old and very worn. Uncomfortable. The living room padded rocking chairs creak loudly when you rock in them. Clearly need replacing. The living space is not conducive for a family to hang out and watch a movie or ball game on a cool night. Couch is only big enough for two adults. 2) Master bedroom mattress is worn and needs replacing 3) The portable gas heaters on the deck are rusted and do not work. Could have really used them one evening when the sea breeze made it chilly for sitting out. 4) Every room has a GOOGLE speaker in it. WEIRD. 5) The grill is old and has not been cleaned in quite sometime. Kitchen appliance handles had not been cleaned upon our arrival. 6) The washing machine dials fall off when you turn it on. 7) There are NO BLINDS in the livingroom, your neighbor is basically watching the Redsox game with you from their living room next door! No jammy nights there! 8) NO SCREENS on bedroom windows to allow sea breeze at night as an alternative to A/C. Other minor issues like faucets that need tightening, dining room chairs arm are loose, one even fell off when moving the chair! Bottom line, the house needs a little TLC. I like nice, and don't mind paying for it....however, for the very expensive price, I want ALL THE AMENITIES to work! House needs some TLC for sure.

Family Getaway

We enjoyed staying at this property for a long weekend with our families. The property was large enough for all couples to have their own bedroom with a bathroom which made it comfortable for everyone. The property was close to downtown (about a mile walk) which was enjoyable for us to not have to drive. The outdoor views and amenities were fantastic. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

Stunning home!

We rented this home for a long weekend with our family of 14 ranging in age from 1-60. This home had everything we could possibly need. Breathtaking views from every window, cleanliness throughout, any kitchen item we looked for, they had & lots of thoughtful extras throughout the home. We rent upscale family vacation homes around the US every year and this was one of our favorites and wouldn’t hesitate to rent here again. Thank you!
