We had an incredible time at Seaward! The house and location were fantastic, and Heather was a great host. The kitchen was updated and worked beautifully for our group of 7. And the view can’t be beat! We are already looking for a time to visit again next year!

Wonderful getaway
We didn’t want to leave- beautiful property, well kept house with tons of charm, views you never get tired of, and the private sandy beach were beyond expectation. We played croquet, kayaked and swam during high tide. The kids had a great time exploring the tide pools and playing with lots of hermit crabs! Local cuisine fantastic as well.

Maine Getaway
We enjoyed our stay at Seaward, an updated vintage home. We found the location perfect for our trips to the north and south. It was nice to return to the quiet beauty of our Friendship house.

Perfect Maine Experience
Seaward is everything I want in a Maine vacation, the views and location can’t be topped. Heather is very responsive and friendly, check in was a breeze and we were quickly on the porch enjoying the ocean breeze. The house has plenty of room, lots of bathrooms for our extended family to share. Love having king size bed options. The very well appointed kitchen makes it very easy to cook for a crowd which we do every night. The house has the perfect amount of rustic charm to make it feel like a true Maine experience. This is a house we’ll return to again and again.

Outstanding
We had an amazing stay, the views of the water are worth the trip alone! The house is perfectly situated with lots of space and fun like nooks that the kids in the family loved. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook multiple family meals and we really enjoyed having the tv in the kitchen to play music while hanging out. Plenty of bathrooms for our large group and lots of space to spread out and have alone time when people needed it, yet big enough common space to gather as a whole family. We loved have big king sized bed and everyone slept very comfortably. We can’t wait to come back!

Best weather of the summer
Beautiful home as described,
Everyday was in the 80’s with bright sunshine, the porch and the beach were utilized the most, large hairy paw dining table seats 8 comfortably.
A lot of period antiques and unique pieces. Very private residential location with No noise or road traffic. Certainly a gem, thank you for a wonderful stay.

A special place
Property is just as described. A rambling, well-loved family summer home with space for everyone. We spent most of our time on the covered porch with rocking chairs and a view of distant islands, lobster boats, sea birds and seals. We launched kayaks from the private beach and swam every afternoon at high tide. Listening to the ocean waves and sea breeze through open windows at night is my idea of heaven and Seaward delivered!

Amazing seaside vacation experience
The house was immaculate, beautifully supplied and organized, lovely linens. The caretaker was so welcoming and kind, responsive and alerted us to some community activities to take part in. Now to the poperty, the pictures don’t do it justice. Nice big kitchen with every thing you can imagine to cook, bake and serve with. Lovely wrap around table with a big table for ocean view meals. Rocking chairs ideal for spending hours just taking it all in. Ocean views from every room in the house. Professionally landscaped, Osprey landing on site, whirling around throughout the day. We woke up to a soft hum of lobster boats every morning, wich we loved! Sailboats through out the day. We had terrible weather, rainy, foggy and cool last week of June, but we still had a fabulous time! Rocks in front to climb and explore, private sand beach to build castles and moats at low tide, catching crabs at high tide. Friendship is a lovely quiet town, with a great corner store/market, great restaurant with excellent lobster rolls, seafood and other options. We encountered friendly neighbors on our walks. The town is small but ocean/Harbour views at every turn. The location was ideal for us as we wanted to explore more coastal towns, and saw so many in just a half day. That was the only time we explored, we all just wanted to be at Seaward. We are a family of 6, kids ages 9-19 and everyone just wanted to stay in/on the property. We are so thankful to Heather for opening Seaward to us! We’ll be back!
