Lovely

Our little group of three had a wonderful time in Rockland. Paul and Molly are lovely hosts, we even received a plate of homemade brownies that were delicious. Their dog, Jacques, brought joy to my day and i looked forward to our daily interactions. We absolutely loved the local restaurants and the convenient location of the house to everything

Great stay.

Wonderful location. Central to the Mid Coast. Though nothing is going to be quick along highway 1, the trips to all way from Portland to Acadia were easy with plenty of nice little towns along the way to stop and walk around. Paul and Molly were great hosts. The place was spacious with all of the amenities that you would want. Would definitely recommend staying there.

Girls Weekend

We were in Maine for a girls weekend and the property was perfect for the four of us. There was plenty of space to spread out but has the charm of an old sea captains house. The beds are very comfortable and the kitchen has all of the dishes that we needed to be able to eat meals "at home". The property owners are very accommodating and helpful. The views of the bay from the third floor are amazing. The property is close to the walking trail to the Rockland Breakwater Lighthouse. We enjoyed the locally owned chocolate factory Bixby's. There are plenty of eating options within a short walk.

Cigarettes are bad for you

Property owner was nice enough and met us in person to let us in and show features of home. Worst part of trip was dealing with Vacasa to get a refund for the stay. Had to have no less than 20 text exchanges and a phone call to resolve getting out of the rental. What we didn’t realize until we got into the property was the owner lives on the 1st floor and the rental unit is above. The owner is also a heavy smoker, which permeates into the rental apartment and all of our clothes.

Great location and property

Exactly as described - great layout and views, especially from the 3rd floor, close to water, short walk to town, great location to explore the area. Note: as described, the stairs are very steep and would not be appropriate for someone with limited mobility.

Great place but 17 stair steps to rental

Everything was very clean and as advertised, but there were 17 steep steps to access main living area. This rental is not for anyone with mobility issues! The long steep stairway should be mentioned in the description, not mentioned the day before move-in as was the case. Please include a photo of steps with listing so individuals are aware of this issue. I can provide one if not available.

Great place!

it’s a very nice duplex on the 2nd and 3rd floors. the 1st floor has permanent occupants. Occasionally we could smell cigarette smoke filtering up though the floors or walls. Considering the age of the house it’s understandable that the 2 units aren’t sealed off from each other. The house rules state no smoking anywhere on the property. Granted, we think we may have also smelled wood burning fireplaces in the neighborhood or even perhaps the Canadian wildfires. It wasn’t bad, but can’t give a 5 star rating because of it.

Charming apartment!

The views from the top floor are fabulous! This is a wonderful spacious apartment, which is on the 2nd and 3rd floors of a very well maintained and charming 1870’s home in a lovely neighborhood. It has lots of windows, is bright, comfortable and very clean. The pictures in the listing are very accurate. The top floor has a master (king bed) and a single bed in an adjacent room (no doors between them) and a 3/4 bath. Everything else is on the 2nd floor. We did not cook while we were there, but the kitchen is a good size and it seemed to be well stocked. There is a full sized washer and dryer that would be great for beach towels. The owners live on the bottom floor and Paul greeted us and let us in the first night. He kindly provided us with maps and brochures. The only negative was a little cigarette smell, probably from a previous tenant. Overall, I really liked this house and recommend it!

Great central location to everything. My only recommendation would be to either flip the mattresses or change them out. There were some divots and lumps that need to be worked out. Other than that perfect place to stay!!!!!

Lovely home base while in Maine

The hosts were very welcoming and nice. The house is very neat and clean, the kitchen was well-stocked with utensils and cookware (perfect for making meals for our kids), and close to downtown Rockland shops and a small beach where we could watch boats in the harbor. We were there during the heatwave so the ACs were a big plus and kept us cool. The location was central for us and were able to do day trips to Camden/Rockport, Mount Battie, Boothbay Harbor, Birch Point/Owl's Heads, and Popham Beach. Highly recommend this place!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall we had a great time in Rockland and really enjoyed accommodations. The owners were very friendly and provided helpful information. The apartment was really nice and comfortable. One concern though is that the door latch to the unit and the top of the stairs does not fully close. So even if you close and lock the door, someone could (and I did it) just push the door open.

Clean, Great Views, Near Fantastic Rockland

Incredible location with beautiful views! My two teens and I had a fantastic, relaxing time in this lovely little section of Rockland, very walkable to town and the Harbor. The owners live downstairs and they were overwhelmingly friendly and easy-going. In fact, my son had hurt his knee and one of the owners (Paul) had an extra pre-packaged knee brace which he gave to us, which not only helped but was a great measure of their kindness and compassion. I loved that the place came with COVID compliant sheets and towels in hospital-grade plastic ready for use. The only downside was that the local rental agency was difficult to get in touch with. It's a shame because they have a storefront right on Main St Rockland, but don't let that deter you. Hopefully, the owners will have resolved it or moved on by the time you get there.

Full moon and spectacular accommodations!

Paul and Molly probably scheduled the beautiful views in the evening of the full moon over the Rockland Breakwater! Their place was just as advertised: very clean, lots of room, many windows and light, even games and children’s books. On the second and third floors of their beautifully renovated home, the views are spectacular! I imagine cool breezes in the summer. We were there in the middle of winter and it was cozy. Paul and Molly were helpful and kind. We were very pleased! Thanks bunches, Diane
