Riverview?

The house really doesn't have a river view....but we have stayed here 2 years in a row - to attend the Blues Festival in Rockland. Back yard is private but doesn't have any outside sitting area...so we brought our own...This house fits our needs even if location is off the beaten path.

It is hard to find a place in this part of Maine but it was great because it was near Rockport and Warren where we were visiting family. Had everything we needed and was very clean.

Nice remote place to stay.

We really enjoyed the remote location of this property. It was very clean and quiet. Having just stayed at a similar property it would be nice if another a/c was added as the one struggled to cool the unit. Our previous rental had also invested in nicer amenities and did not go with the cheapest options like we noticed at this rental. Overall these were more minor details and the rental served us well.

Unable to stay due to strong pet odor

As soon as we opened the door a very heavy “wet dog” odor was present. After a half hour of opening the windows, it was clear that we could not stay. I immediately called the owner who told us he would issue a credit. A short time later the owner called to let me know he was only able to issue a partial credit. I called VRBO to get help with the remaining credit. I spoke to Habiba who was very helpful. She told me the owner would be available after 5 pm. She would call him and e-mail me an update. This was 1 week ago and I have not heard from her, did not receive my additional credit and have messaged the owner 2 times without a reply. This is unacceptable. I have rented many times on VRBO but will no longer with this extreme lack of customer service. When booking, the listing did mention pet friendly. There is a very big difference between being pet friendly and your house smelling like a dog kennel. The property needs a deep cleaning.

Perfect little home

This is the perfect little house for a quick getaway. We were in for a family function but found the property to be perfectly located near so many cool hiking trails and quaint small towns. The house was stocked with all the needed creature comforts we needed and we were all comfortable. Jason was the perfect host and was great with resolving our check-in hiccup quickly.
