Amazing spot
House was very clean, very well stocked, with lots of space and different areas. We were only two people, but I can imagine large groups doing well here as there are so many nicely furnished rooms to break into. Loved the beach a short walk away! Communications were easy and quick with very caring host.

Quaint village in Maine
Loved the quiet of the home. Had great views of the bay. The house had everything we needed. The stairs were very steep. Not good for someone who would have mobility issues. One would expect this with the age of the house. You can also get fresh lobster right next door.

Sweet Getaway!
We loved this place! House is old, but very functional! This house is off the beaten track and access to groceries is very limited. Bring what you need with you. Lunch on the Wharf is just down the road and did not disappoint. To clarify, the house has two kings, one queen and 3 twins. Would highly recommend!

Great Thanksgiving weekend in Maine
We had a wonderful (Canadian) thanksgiving weekend at this beautiful farmhouse. It's situated halfway between Halifax and our friends in Boston and was the right size for our group of 9, which includes 5 teenagers and 4 adults. The large family room is great for games, puzzles, reading or relaxing. There were some recent renovations in the bedrooms, kitchen, dinning room and also a large new deck. The location is beautiful overlooking the Corea harbour and is steps for a lobster coop where you can get fresh lobster!. This is our 3rd time here and will plan to come again next year!

Girls Trip!
This place was perfect for a long-weekend girls trip up to Maine! We had a group of 7, and there was plenty of bedroom space for all of us, we never felt claustrophobic, and we never fought over showers since there were 2 full baths. The house was clean when we arrived and had all the amenities we needed during our stay. The kitchen worked great, we enjoyed multiple sunsets on the back porch, there was plenty of space at the dining room table and living room for us to hang out, and we even got cozy around the firepit one night. Cindy is also a great innkeeper, as she was great with communication leading up to our check-in date, and she checked in via text multiple times throughout our stay. And although it is about an hour drive to Acadia/Bar Harbor, we loved the place and would definitely recommend to other groups looking to stay in the area.

Corea, Maine
Arrived at the wrong location. 6 hr drive time with a 3 yo.Owner said she sent directions & code; physically showed her what I received-no apology. Didn’t put the dog down to give us full attention. Advised where to go “only hour away; straight shot. Easy.” Amusing for her and assistant. It was 2 hours away and far from straight shot. Kitchen sink leaks with a bucket of stagnant water. Upstairs shower doesn’t drain well-9 people used 1 shower. Couch old and torn all over. Torrential rain off the bay came in thru both doors on that side-heavily. During our stay yard work was done took about an hour. Lobster coolers on deck because lobsters are not permitted in the house; had old water and smelled. We cleaned, vacuumed, stripped beds, washed towels put in dryer and sheets to washer. After leaving I am being questioned about a small bird figurine. Each of these in itself not a big deal-combined-not an enjoyable experience at this location and company. DO NOT RECOMMEND My 4th rental-my 1st unsatisfactory experience.

Lovely comfortable historical property
This is a comfy, historical home with lots of character and history hanging on some walls (objects they found during renovation, local stores, etc), which I found interesting to read. All tastefully done and not excessive. The large living room has beautiful views and breezes of the harbor. We spent most of our time hanging out in that room. The neighborhood has views at this end of the street and the other end - stunning. We met a couple neighbors and chatted. We stumbled upon an old cemetery during our walks thru the area, which was fascinating. The kitchen is comfortably stocked with utensils and pots. There is a main floor master with bath. The king size bed was comfortable, and even though it was two twins with a topper, we didn't notice it. one upstairs bedroom was used as an office. The attic bedroom/playroom have angled ceilings, so you need to be mindful of that if you use them; we didn't. We had no issues and the management team was always accessible via text. Plenty of towels, etc for the stay. Laundry facilities worked great. As with all older homes, the floors are uneven across the additions and sometimes within a room. I didn't mind it because it is a historical property, and that's expected. Easy day trip to the local nature preserve/heath and Schoodic area of Acadia National Park. The towns within 15 minutes drive have artists' shops, general store, restaurants, and grocery. I would recommend this to someone wanting to have a peaceful stay away from things and folks who needed a jumping off place to visit Acadia that wasn't touristy.

Location
The pictures of property looked like you had access to the bay, which is not the case. When you were outside, it smelled like fish. And it was over an hour drive to get to Acadia park and Bar Harbour area. The house was generally clean, but had spider webs in several places. The small twin bed that was pictured in the loft area wasn't there.

Relaxing stay/ beautiful views.
We had a great week in Corea. The property contact was extremely responsive and it was a quiet location. Roughly 15 minutes to the Schoodic section of Acadia and over an hour to the main park. Only word of warning is that local restaurants and their hours are relatively limited so it may be wise to hit the grocery store ahead of checking in. Would return.

Cool historical house
This is an old house that has been redone, has all the modern amenities and the house was outfitted with anything we could need. Individual AC units in the house and whole house heat were both needed on our trip. Beautiful view over the bay. Property manager very responsive to any concerns. For someone new to the area, I believe it auto tells you 11 miles to bar harbor, which is true via water but it is 1 hour away via car or car/ferry. Not much to do in the actual village but it was super quiet and relaxed with friendly residents. A great binder was in the house with overview of the area restaurants, activities. Also, listing says king beds, it is two twin beds pushed together which leaves taller family members with their lower body hanging off the bed.
