Fabulous
Best host ever , the home has everything and anything that you would ever need . All was impeccable.Ample parking , lots of room , close to restaurants and blocks from main hwy.
Will definitely stay here again .
We needed to book a last minute, dog friendly place for a quick trip to look at properties in the area. Laura was super responsive, accommodating and super sweet and understanding as we were dealing with a bit of stress booking this trip in such a hurry.
The place is exactly as described and honestly was cuter in person than in the photos! When it unexpectedly snowed and we were unprepared to clean off our car, they came out and offered help. The property was SO clean and lovely and I felt like anything I needed, they would have been right on it to help me.
Looking forward to renting from them again should the opportunity present itself.

Wonderful time in Waldoboro
The historic charm of this property blends perfectly with the requirements of today's modern lifestyle. It's convenient location is just steps from the town and the ease of getting to various activities along the coast. We especially enjoyed sitting around the blazing firepit one evening and found this property to be a perfect respite.
The gracious hosts are cheerful and friendly and they went above and beyond to make us feel like family!

Close to everything
This property is perfect for a couple or even a family of 4….and the location is great- we took day trips around mid coast Maine, Damariscotta, and Bath/Brunswick. We enjoyed the charming aesthetic of the apartment…and the amenities were delightful.
I liked that the apartment was on a side street and off the main road. Waze didn't have any issues in getting us there and the apartment was just perfect for my husband & I - very cozy. I would definitely try to rent again if our travels lead us to that part of ME. Laura was very helpful with things to do or places to go in the area. It was nice to feel safe and at home when you are away from home.
