Jan 5, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We enjoyed our cozy stay in this sweet home on the Maine coast. We had everything we needed and the host and their team were very responsive, even coming over to salt the steep driveway before we departed in sleet and ice. We hope to be back again next year. ##### Katherine M.
