From the minute we arrive, all our urban stress seems to magically fall away. There's so much fresh air, sunshine and healthy vibes here, I always leave rejuvenated and revived. The sun rises early - 4:45AM! - so be sure to bring a sleep mask. The sun sets late and it's absolutely magnificent to watch over the glittering water. The beds are super comfy (this is a must for me!) and I swear the combination of the cool Maine breeze and the valerian that grows outside lulls me into a much needed deep sleep. The hosts, Dick and Carol, are warm and welcoming but you also have plenty of privacy. They know who to call for the freshest and best lobster you've ever tasted - plus they have numerous recommendations on local haunts, hikes and activities for adults and kids alike. We love it here and plan to return every year for the foreseeable future. Highly recommend this very special vacation spot!

Judy and Ed, the owners, held the door open for us as we approached the entrance. The lobby had beautiful chandeliers and fall decor. We pleasantly chatted about how similar MN and ME are with them as we checked in. We received a pair of actual keys to our room, which was a refreshing escape from electronic this and selfie that. Since we were only in town for a night, we stayed in a double-queen room instead of a full suite. We had our own separate entrance to the room from our own private patio area, which made it feel like we were entering a vacation home. Every detail in the room was luxurious. From the Bose stereo playing jazz, to the fireplace, to the ornate furniture, to THE most comfortable bed and pillows, to the hardwood hallway leading to the large bathroom with light dimmers. In the morning, they set-up a wonderful breakfast in-room for us: spinach-feta frittata, spring salad, fruit salad, blueberry-lemon pound cake, OJ, and coffee. Having to check out and leave really sucked. Additional info: Must book weeks in advance, as they only have 8 rooms. Park in the front to check-in, then you can re-park in the private lot in the back. They are right next to the Co-op and within walking distance of basically everything in town!

I recently booked an Airbnb…read morethrough them for a future stay in October, but found out my father in law had recently been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. As soon as we found out, I knew that our plans may need to change as his prognosis wasn't looking good so I went to Airbnb to see what our cancellation options were. I realized I was 3 days late to a full refund. The partial refund was still available to me though, which was 50% a night minus the service fee. I figured it might still be worth a shot to explain the situation at hand and see if the host was able to accommodate us, and make exception for a full refund or even a credit for a future stay. I sent Amanda a direct message with the request mentioned, and she had advised to reach out to Airbnb to explore my cancellation options. I reached out to Airbnb and they said I could try to request for the full refund and though there is a cancellation policy, the host can ultimately decide if they want to honor a full refund and make exceptions given the situation at hand. They even said they saw the messages and felt the host was understanding so requesting the full refund looked promising. Anyways, we tried working out having me request the full refund and I was not able to due to access issues. The Airbnb agent then said she could request for at least what I was already owed (50% minus service fee), and I can just request for the remaining balance after and the host will just have to approve that request for the full refund. It wasn't until after that I realized by doing that, Airbnb had to cancel my reservation. I asked if it could be undone but they said it could not. So, that was done but I figured I'll just do what I can now. I submitted for the remaining balance and even uploaded documents of proof of us going to the pulmonologist and being recently diagnosed. Within a day or two, I got a message that Amanda denied the full refund. I got my partial refund, but there was an amount I lost. I reached out to her again and requested if there was a possibility I can just rebook the same reservation (with the same dates) so at least some of my other family members can go even if some of us had to stay back. The dates were still available, I requested to pay back the refund I got back, but just requested if we can just at least use the funds I lost during this process towards the reservation again. Amanda said no and that I would have to rebook the reservation again and essentially now, pay MORE because she was not willing to use those lost funds towards the original reservation. I am truly upset by the lack of professionalism, empathy, compassion, and communication by the host. What was the purpose of having me reach out to Airbnb to explore my cancellation options if you knew you weren't going to honor the full refund or credit request? Amanda could have been fully transparent and also practiced more compassion to explain that she understood the situation at hand but couldn't honor the request and a partial refund would be the best she could do. I would have been more than fine with that because I do understand I missed the cancellation policy for a full refund by a few days. But not being direct, transparent, and compassionate was disheartening. On top of that, not even considering the accommodation of returning the reservation to us if I was willing to pay back the refund and use my lost funds towards it... that was all I needed to know about her. Greed over compassion. She could do better as a host and as a human being. I hate that I even have to give a 1 star. Also wished I saw that she had a yelp review before I booked. I would've much rather provided business to another host that would be much more deserving.

Les greeted us and took the time to show us to our room on the third floor telling us all about the history of the property on the way. Someone complained in another review that there are stairs up to the third floor. It is true. They are wooden, steep, and full of character. The floors are original and slope and creak as expected, but are beautifully painted and well kept. Our room was beautiful and the bathroom was perfect, looking like it was remodeled yesterday. Since we realized there was not going to be a lot of dining choices, we stopped at a grocery on our way in for a light picnic dinner of cheese, crackers, fruit and a bottle of wine to enjoy by the water. It was a perfect evening to watch the sunset on one of the two waterfront areas on the property. It was only my husband and me. We could see another couple sitting on the rocks, but it still felt so private and it truly felt like something out of a romantic movie. The next morning we enjoyed the best blueberry muffins provided by the host and coffee on the front porch of the inn. As we sat looking down toward the water both a deer and a red fox came through the yard as a humming flew around the beautiful flowers. Every staff member we encountered was friendly and went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. I almost want to keep this gem a secret!

We even received a (handwritten!) kind thank you note from the owners when we returned home, which was such a lovely touch.
