Disappointing
Gathered with family for celebration of life. House has Safety Issues, dirty, not operating appropriately, water and screens on windows, stovetop. There were so many items it is hard to list. We called property management immediately and were told sorry that the house was not up to your standards. SAFTY ISSUES: 1) Rat/Mouse feces under the kitchen sink with old previously wet paper towels not cleaned. 2) Skylight windows open with seating area below where children can climb on and out to VERY STEEP roof. 3) Railing on deck rotted with 15 foot drop. 4) Dryer vent clogged. 5) staircase railing to bottom floor is breaking DIRTY: Again under sink dirty rat or mouse feces, oven filthy, refrigerator leaks yellow goo that dried in the bottom of the fridge, freezer was dirty, floors and window sills dirty. Bathrooms were ok and beds were made however trash near the washer and dryer was full. Linens seemingly thrown in the closet so we didn’t know if they were clean or dirty. Not operational: 1) Missing screens on upstairs bedrooms so could not open to let in cool air without letting in all the bugs. 2) Could not open skylight window due to safety issue and no screens. 3)Hot water was pretty much non existent for showers maybe one and a half minutes before no hot/warm water 4) ping pong table had no net and the only balls were broken .. we left some there. 4) Not enough fans for rooms so we bought a couple to use in addition to the ones they had there.

Golf Weekend
The house was perfect for 10 guys taking a weekend away to play golf. The house was huge and had everything we needed. The location is in the woods which was perfect for us as we wanted to be isolated from any neighbors. Everything described in the listing was accurate. We would definitely stay there again!

Could have been great
I took a group of 17 up to stay for a week in Maine while we put on a kids camp. We were told the property had air conditioning but upon arrival found that it did not. Typically this wouldn’t have been a big deal in Maine but it was an unusually hot week. Temperatures regularly ran in the 80s in the house as the outside temps were in the mid 90s. Nights that it dropped down into the 60s it was manageable but needed constant air circulation. The hot water heater is very small so many showers were cold but that did help with the heat in the house. With the lack of ventilation windows constantly had to be open except at night so bugs progressively became an issue but not too major. Many of the tables and chairs in the house were unstable so we opted for the floors and couches most often or just sat on beds to avoid breaking anything and incurring charges. There was no broom except a brillow padded push broom which didn’t catch much so cleaning throughout the week was difficult. No skillets in the kitchen forced us to borrow from friends in the area. We also had to buy an additional box fan because there weren’t enough for each room. All in all this place could be great if renovations were finished and basic cleaning, kitchen and air flow supplies were provided. The deck was beautiful, the house was spacious but it needs work and the ac issue was really difficult to deal with but could have been alleviated by cooler weather. Personally I wouldn’t stay there again.

Don’t recommend!!!
I highly discourage anyone from renting this property!!! Communication was terrible on their part. I arranged for an early check in at 2:30. However, when I arrived there was no power at the house whatsoever. No one was answering my messages for quite some time. I ended up calling the electric company myself and they pinged the house so we could have electricity. I’m not sure if the bill was even paid. We didn’t get electricity until about 6pm!! The house had minimal pots, pans, cutlery/utensils. The garbage disposal didn’t work and got backed up. The dishwasher smelled of mildew. There was also mice feces under the kitchen sink.

We stayed here for a bach party and it worked great for our large group. Definitely recommend bringing warm weather PJs in the upstairs bedrooms, no AC makes it quite toasty in the summer months. The fans provided were helpful.

Perfect for a mini family reunion!
Very spacious home with lots of room to play board games in one section, ping pong in another, video games in another, and eat a snack at the high top to watch it all! We came up for a family wedding and our part of the family all got to stay together! So fun for a larger family to spend time together in a great part of Maine.

Great house for hosting and proximity to Portland!
Overall my friends and I were satisfied with our stay. The positives: great location, less than 15min drive to downtown Portland and a beautiful surrounding. The host was communicative and allowed us to check in early which was very helpful! There was a laundry machine for us to use as well. Neutral points: which we were fully aware of was that there is no AC in the house and it did get quite warm in some of the rooms. The host did provide fans but on the days it was over 80 degrees, AC would’ve been ideal. Another thing is, the kitchen is very nice! But it would’ve been helpful if the kitchen was supplied with some cooking oil, paper towels, and other spices. Just the basics. Needs improvements: Oof, cleanliness was definitely an issue. There was leftover clothing possibly from a previous owner in one room and the bathrooms didn’t look clean. The price is affordable and we don’t regret staying here at all! Generally a positive experience.

Good
Our stay was okay but certain things I wish could have been different. The sinks did not drain properly, specifically the kitchen sink which had to be plunged. Owner did offer to send someone to take care of sink but we ended dealing with ourselves because we had early plans. All of the windows should have had screens but some did not, which unfortunately resulted in bugs getting inside. We could feel the heat coming out of the vents in the floor but had no way to turn it off since thermostats were on lowest setting. Overall, the house was adequate for what we needed it for but could have been better if there was A/C and more cleanliness in certain areas.

Poor value
This house was adequate for our family, but I cannot recommend it to others. First, the owner furnished it with the minimum necessary to make the photos look good online. It's a large place, but not enough furniture to make it comfortable, particularly given the number of guests that the listing says it will accommodate. Second, communicating with the owner was difficult. He was slow to respond to our messages prior to our stay. Third, the owner did not seem to be staying on top of basic maintenance. Lightbulbs were out throughout, there were ants everywhere, trash was strewn outdoors upon our arrival, and a floor board on the steps is loose. Fourth, the upstairs bedrooms are very stuffy and uncomfortable. We were there during a relatively cool summer weekend, but the rooms were stifling hot. There is no a/c and the windows barely open. Lastly, the location is not ideal. While the setting is pretty, the property backs up to I-295. The highway noise is quite loud. Given how much we paid, we deserved a better experience.

Great Value outside Portland
This VRBO was great value for just outside of Portland. The house is a little older and lacks AC or any strong fans (possibly a better winter than summer house) which made it hard to sleep as it was definitely warm when we stayed. The size of the house is great though and it fit all of our guests. The living room is open and provides a great place for entertainment. The deck was really cool but I wish there were some more seats or tables to enjoy it more. One small item is that there is no service when you are there so you are reliant on the Wi-Fi. We lost power during a storm and unfortunately had to drive down the road to alert the host. But they were very responsive in trying to help us where they could. Overall, it’s a place with good value that is in shouting distance to Portland. Hard to get this size and price anywhere closer.

Good stay with a plot twist
Overall the stay was pleasant. House was as described online with plenty of beds and space to accommodate our larger group. Minimal amenities and did not have hot water but the house suited our needs. Then we checked out and I got hit an email listing a $500 additional charge for “broken items, broken pieces scattered thought out the house, broken corn hole boards.” The cornhole boards were broken upon arrival, including a hook on the wall that was clearly holding them up, which was on the ground along with the boards. I then asked for picture clarifications of the broken items scattered throughout the house. I received two pictures of tiny pieces of plastic without attached broken items and a broken ping pong ball. That’s correct, $500 charge for pieces of plastic including a broken ping pong ball. I appealed the charges through Vrbo. The charges were quickly dropped when Vrbo reached out for him to verify showing the validity of his accusations.
