Jun 15, 2025 #### Idyllic location The home is on a beautiful, private piece of land right on the St. George River estuary. The views are absolutely stunning and there is a short path right to the water and rocks. It was a perfect spot for two couples to relax and convenient to explore the midcoast region. ##### Kelly P. ### 8/10 Good #### Michelle H. Jun 25, 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Annual Maine Vacation Property and location was great for us, especially nice when high tide! Very quiet and private location. Perfect with our little dog.Linens and towels were fresh and clean. The house is a pretty nice camp, which is what we love. It just needs a little spring cleaning, and needs screens on more of the windows. ##### Michelle H. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Laurie S.

The only thing that was not there was a outdoors firepit or fireplace to enjoy more of the outdoors but we loved it and might even try to get back soon ##### ronald Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Lauren Aug 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication When we arrived it was very late, almost 1am. There were no lights on at all so that was a bit inconvenient, but we found our way in after a few minutes with our phone flashlights. I suppose I should’ve let the host know we wouldn’t be in until late so they could leave one on for us. Incase you didn’t read all the amenities like myself- there is no air conditioning or central lights. There are plenty of lamps around to light the way though! This actually added to the cute vintage vibes of the house so we didn’t mind. They have a few stand alone fans to circulate air so this was nice given the no central AC. The house was not “dirty” by any means but there were occupied cobwebs in almost every corner. But like I said, the house was cleaned other than this. The kitchen was fully stocked with any and all equipment you’d need to cook a full meal plus dessert from lobster forks to hand mixers! We really appreciated this kitchen setup as it made making a home cooked meal so convenient which in turn made our stay feel that much cozier. The water access in the backyard was so beautiful and made it even easier to wake up in the mornings. We especially loved low tide so we could go out looking for shells with our 2 year old. The house is in a really good location, it’s about a 10 minute drive to anywhere you’d need but the drive never even felt that long. Overall, we’d stay here again in a heartbeat just read all the amenities and you’ll be good! ##### Lauren Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Janet W. Jun 22, 2025 #### Beautiful property! We absolutely loved the property! Lots of mowed lawn. Lots of mature trees and shrubs! A beautiful water view! Beautiful sunsets! The house was fine. It was clean, as far the kitchen and bathrooms were concerned. Much of the furniture is very dated, but the beds seemed newer and were comfortable. Some of the contents were stained and rusty. The large living/kitchen area was very dark. But it's a nice room and the kitchen has everything you need. Some of the rugs were stained. This is a house that allows dogs and we did have two dogs with us, so we understand. But this house doesn't have air conditioning and when it was humid out, we could smell the urine in the carpeting. Once again, we have dogs, so we try to be a little more accepting of some things. But it was kind of icky. But we made do because the property was beautiful and the location was good. If they gave the carpeting a good, professional cleaning and they added some overhead lighting in the kitchen/ living room area, it would make a big difference. ##### Janet W. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Quality Inn Bangor Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Bangor-Hotels-Bangor-Suites.h10687.Hotel-Information) > > [Juniper Hill Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Ogunquit-Hotels-Juniper-Hill-Inn.h1064465.Hotel-Information) > > [Bangor Inn & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Bangor-Hotels-Bangor-Inn-Suites.h7834282.Hotel-Information) > > [Terrace by the Sea](https://www.expedia.ca/Ogunquit-Hotels-Terrace-By-The-Sea.h12354872.Hotel-Information) > > [Waves Oceanfront Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-Waves-Oceanfront-Resort.h15041235.Hotel-Information) > > [Residence Inn by Marriott Bangor](https://www.expedia.ca/Bangor-Hotels-Residence-Inn-By-Marriott-Bangor.h11451255.Hotel-Information) > > [The Edgewater](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-The-Edgewater.h2041428.Hotel-Information) > > [Anchorage by the Sea](https://www.expedia.ca/Ogunquit-Hotels-Anchorage-By-The-Sea.h12988895.Hotel-Information) > > [Super 8 by Wyndham Bangor](https://www.expedia.ca/Bangor-Hotels-Super-8-By-Wyndham-Bangor.h1321980.Hotel-Information) > > [The Colony Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-The-Colony-Hotel.h26416.Hotel-Information) > > [Quality Inn at Bangor Mall](https://www.expedia.ca/Bangor-Hotels-Quality-Inn-At-Bangor-Mall.h27065.Hotel-Information) > > [Vacationland Inn & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Bangor-Hotels-Maine-Coast-Inn-At-Vacationland-Inns.h27000971.Hotel-Information) > > [Cliff House Maine](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Neddick-Hotels-Cliff-House-Maine.h3981160.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Beach Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-Grand-Beach-Inn.h10615598.Hotel-Information) > > [Bangor Grande](https://www.expedia.ca/Bangor-Hotels-Bangor-Grande.h17476.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairfield Inn By Marriott Bangor](https://www.expedia.ca/Bangor-Hotels-Fairfield-Inn-By-Marriott-Bangor.h18131.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton Inn Bangor](https://www.expedia.ca/Bangor-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Bangor.h5171785.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Resort Bar Harbor - Acadia Natl Park by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Bar-Harbor-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Resort-Bar-Harbor-Acadia-Natl-Park.h26045.Hotel-Information) > > [White Barn Inn & Spa, Auberge Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-White-Barn-Inn-Spa.h528547.Hotel-Information) > > [Country Inn at The Mall](https://www.expedia.ca/Bangor-Hotels-Country-Inn-At-The-Mall.h2206257.Hotel-Information) > > [Tru by Hilton Portland Airport Area](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-Tru-By-Hilton-Portland-Airport-Area.h18952854.Hotel-Information) > > [Bangor Aviator Hotel, BW Premier Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Bangor-Hotels-Bangor-Aviator-Hotel.h25550.Hotel-Information) > > [Ocean House Hotel & Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-Ocean-House-Hotel-Motel.h59944363.Hotel-Information) > > [Hollywood Casino Bangor](https://www.expedia.ca/Bangor-Hotels-Hollywood-Casino-Bangor.h18053.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western White House Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Bangor-Hotels-Best-Western-White-House-Inn.h9817.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Merry Manor Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-Best-Western-Merry-Manor-Inn.h15845.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Bangor by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Bangor-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Bangor.h9443.Hotel-Information) > > [Black Bear Inn, an Ascend Collection Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Bangor-Hotels-Black-Bear-Inn-And-Conference-Center.h15765.Hotel-Information) > > [Alouette Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Portland-Hotels-Alouette-Beach-Resort.h1973032.Hotel-Information) > > [Courtyard by Marriott Bangor](https://www.expedia.ca/Bangor-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-Bangor.h2190272.Hotel-Information)
