Perfect in every way/ Awesome!

This property was very convenient to the downtown area, restaurants and shops. The house was very nicely done with several nice touches. The host made sure we had a great and comfortable stay. I really can't say enough about how nice this property is to stay in. Lincolnville is an historical neighborhood in transition and we loved walking around it. Always felt safe. Thanks Matt!
