Very nice place with a million dollar view out the living room window. It was very clean and a nice neighborhood. Right on the water. Two couples and was comfortable for us. I would definitely stay there again.

A wonderful view
The house was exactly as advertised. It’s very well maintained and very well appointed. But, the best part is the view. Also, very close to Rockland center and all the activities there. We were very happy with our stay.

Lovely Apartment in Perfect Location
We loved the property and especially watching the sunrise each morning right from the living. The accommodations were clean and comfortable. The 2nd bathroom had a tub only, which was a bit inconvenient for our group. Would stay again.

Another great vacation in Maine
We try to make it to Maine as often as we can, always staying with there bay as our back yard. We also always rent a house for a week or two.
This year we tried a different area of Maine and liked the surroundings a lot. The house was the cleanest house who have ever rented. It was well organized and offered a=very comfortable beds and lounge area.
The kitchen is somewhat outdated (especially the coffee machine), needed some better cookware, but we made it work. We LOVED the view from the huge windows. So much better than any TV show one can offer. However, we were greatly disappointed that there is no easy access to the outside or a place to sit right from the living room (like a deck). The backyard had a picnic table, but to access it was very inconvenient if we really wanted to eat there.
The beach is accessible from down the block (easy walk).
Overall, the house is located on a quiet street very close to Rockland Main Street and other local attractions.

Best location ever
This property is one of the nicest we’ve ever stayed at. The picture windows looking out over the harbor, the location, so close to everything we could want, and the cleanliness and comfort of the house itself were all the best.
The management company was unresponsive when the keypad door lock didn’t work. We had to climb in through a luckily open window. The company said someone would be right there to fix it and no one ever showed up.
Even with that, I would stay here again if we return to the Rockland area.
