Recent Penobscot Bay vacation rental reviews

This house was even better than in the photos. The view from the master bedroom as well as the living room is amazing. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was near several beautiful Maine towns for day trips. The locals were friendly. The General Store was just a short drive away and had great food and essentials. We hope to return soon.

What an absolutely wonderful stay at this home!! The house itself is just beautiful, with a lot of lovely historic character and features, as well as modern conveniences (like the soaking tub in the master bathroom - amazing!). So many small details have been considered to make the home comfortable for guests and large groups - the kitchen is well-equipped for cooking, the decor reflects the coastal location, and there are lots of books, games, and other features in the home for guests to enjoy. With two separate living room areas, it's easy for even large groups and families to find space for everyone to relax comfortably. And the beds are incredibly comfortable! The location is also hard to beat - it's a quiet, historic neighborhood but within a short walk of downtown Belfast and the Belfast Harbor. There are lots of great restaurants and coffee shops in the area, plus many other towns, parks, and areas to explore within a short drive. Absolutely recommend this home for your mid-coast Maine adventures!

The setting on the edge of the ocean with lots of windows facing it was fabulous! We had a wonderful week. I did a lot of watercolor paintings, being inspired by the changing beauty looking out at the water. We even had a rainbow over the water on of the days!
