Huge snowfall the night we arrived! Power went out, but the house was super prepared with a generator and prompt plowing. The local team was responsive, and the stay couldn’t have been more lovely with snow everywhere and a fire in the fireplace. Bring binoculars to peep birds down on the sound!

The house was as advertised except that he EV charger was a Tesla charger and could not be used by other plug-in EVs. That was not stated in the description.The house was clean, the instructions were clear and in general everything was as we had hoped.I would describe the premises as very minimal.. No chair in the bedroom, no grab bars in the bathrooms, no radios or clocks in the bedroom.

Beautiful, one-level home with garage access. Great deck with lovely water views. Water views from the kitchen, dining, and living areas, as well. Enjoyed watching the boats come and go. Note for future guests…the fire pit is located in the garage and must be moved to the backyard for use. The kitchen stove is an induction stove…must use pots and pans provided.

Loved our stay in Harpswell! The location is perfect - although it's hard to tell from pictures is, the ocean (with a small rocky beach) is right down the hill. You either need to go next door to their staircase (very easy) or go 2 doors down where there's an access point you can use drive onto the beach (if you bring paddleboards or other boats). And the neighborhood itself is walkable - you can go about a half mile down on the quiet residential street without encountering much/any traffic.The house itself is clean, modern, and large! We felt very at home, played some Monopoly and Boggle, and used the grill and outdoor firepit (it's in the garage). All that said, there's nothing like sitting on the back deck in an adirondack chair, reading a book. Makes you want to stay much longer.

This home was great for the 5 of us. We ate in for breakfast and the kitchen was well supplied. Gave is an abundance of clean towels. Home was clean. Bathrooms were remodeled! Loved the deck and look forward to staying again- hopeful for the access to the water being built next summer straight the backyard! We did walk down to the neighborhood access for a morning swim. Thanks!

Fantastic house in great location, but hard to connect with property manager (Vacasa) re. issues
This house is absolutely beautiful, quite well appointed, in a stunning location, and so comfortable and roomy. I hate to give it 4 stars instead of 5, but the lack of the final star is because we had some maintenance issues which were not addressed through the management company (washing machine stuck on error code so not working, locked thermostat so we were cold at night in bedrooms and bathrooms), and an intense sulphur smell in the water - and though I texted Vacasa per their instructions on the arrival text we received (which got no response even after 24 hours), and then tried calling the local maintenance number listed in the guidebook (where there was no answer or ability to leave a message), it was only when I called the main Vacasa number before checkout that I reached someone who said they would get on this stuff after we left (we only were there 2 days). So I think it is probably more of a management issue than a property/owner issue, and I hope they get it resolved because the place is overall awesome! I would hope to come back some day!

Beautiful outside vistas in every direction. Well appointed inside with everything we needed. We appreciated the no shoes on inside policy, but a bench at the entry would be helpful. Convenient to Bowdoin.

Great Place to Stay
This house is great! Just like the other reviews, the view was absolutely stunning. The house was comfortable and welcoming. My preschooler keeps asking us about when we can return to “our Maine house”. I think it left a favorable impression on him. We would happily stay here again in the future.

The house was sparkling clean. We enjoyed our brief stay , reading supervising the tides coming and going. It was quiet and peaceful. We would definitely stay again we enjoyed the privacy the location offered, not far from town and amenities.
