Amazing stay!
We stayed in three places as we traveled through Maine. This was my favorite stay. The home owners thought of everything you might need for your stay. The house was spotless. The light, colors and furnishings made this so homey. The location was close to walk to town and the view from outside the front of the house was beautiful. This home has modern amenities, while also being a step in the past. Beds were very comfy and linens seemed brand new. The washer and dryer was a plus as we were traveling for two weeks. I would absolutely stay here again if I visit the area again.

Beautiful house in gorgeous Wiscassett.
We stayed with 3 couples and had a wonderful time at the house in Wiscassett. The house was equipped with everything we needed for a long weekend. The town is wonderful - we walked to all of the local restaurants and shops and drove to Boothbay Harbor and Camden for short day trips. We highly recommend the house and would be happy to stay again.

Great location
We spent two nights here while visiting colleges and the surrounding areas. It is very convenient to Brunswick, Portland, the nearby coastal towns and points north. We were up and out early each day and didn’t return until late so we weren’t in the house much but it served our purposes well. It is cozy, quaint and rustic and the owners did a nice job updating the kitchen. The keyless entry was very convenient and we appreciated being notified we could check in early even though we weren’t able to do so because of our busy schedule. The town is charming and the street was quiet and felt safe.

Duped and Disappointed
The posting is not accurate. Shocked by the fact that this place is categorized as a "premiere host." Toilet seat was cracked. There was brown hairy mold on the bathroom curtain. There was pink mold on the bottom of the shower curtain and on the tub. There were no extra sheets or blankets as the property manager had indicated. The front door had windows that allowed for no privacy. For people of color visiting an all-white town, renting a house next door to a neighbor with a Trump sign, this is not something that made us feel very comfortable. The beautiful couches and chairs pictured online were covered with brown chair covers. The place did not look like the photos on the website. There was no light in the dining room which made it impossible to dine in the dining room in the evenings. The deck was not clean, but quite dirty. The place is very old and the floors creak. There's only one bathroom far away down the stairs from the top two bedrooms. The white stairs leading up to the bedrooms were dirty upon arrival. There was hair on the stairs. A hair was also found on a pillow upstairs. There was dirt behind an upstairs door. All of this, despite the exorbitant cleaning charges. Though we enjoyed Maine itself, we would not recommend Vrbo or this place.
