This was just what we wanted for a couple of nights with our puppy. The sunroom looking over the bay was peaceful. The heating systems in each room were great and easy to navigate. Thank you for a nice stay!
House was clean and perfect size for 5 of us to scrapbook in the sun room for the week.
This place was very cozy. It had plenty of rooms and beds for all of us and had nice heat pumps in every room so we were very comfortable. The aesthetic was very comforting and cozy and we loved the sun room in the back for morning Cody and playing some cards in our down time. We will definitely be back.
Great view. Loved the sunroom for cards and games. Steap steps to get to upstairs room may be difficult for older guests.
This home is close to lots to do but also has a very peaceful back sunroom and back yard that overlooks Merrymeeting Bay. Will definitely be back!
This home had everything we needed for our visit with our 4 adult children. The sunroom was great for eating breakfast and looking out on the water. Less than 15 minutes to to Brunswick with lots of restaurants
