Truly amazing stay at Tir Owen. This place is very authentic but also comfortable and clean. Everything is well organized and set up. It has character, good spirit and intelligence. You can tell Pat has thought about every details to make his place welcoming, warm and convenient. We loved it; swimming in the pound everyday and enjoying the garden was a fantastic experience. I wish we were staying longer to explore more of the surroundings! I highly recommend it.

Sehr schönes Haus. Gut ausgestattet. Bequemer 1800 nach Hause mit einzigartigem Layout. Viele Updates sind gemacht worden, und einige sind in den Arbeiten. Wir haben hier eine Nacht mit 3 Kindern und hatte alles, was wir brauchten. Jen war sehr zuvorkommend mit unserem Wunsch so kurzfristig. Sehr ruhige Umgebung. Ruhig und glücklich Einstellung auf dem See. Defineteley wird für einen längeren Aufenthalt zurückkehrt auf den See und zu Hause mehr, sobald das Wetter wird schöner zu genießen.

Had a great stay. The house is right on the lake, which is beautiful. And the house was very charming & cozy. It was the perfect spot for our weekend getaway

We had a great time! Very cozy feel! Beautiful view!

The host canceled this reservation 8 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Beautiful location, a little rustic, but worked out great for graduation weekend at Colby.

Jennifer was super communicative and helpful before and during our stay. She gave us lots of great tips on where to eat and what to do and described the loons on the lake and the stars at night and more. The house was cozy with interesting books and artwork and maps to look at. The master bedroom and the living room have pretty views of the water. One of the decks was just rebuilt and it looks like more renovations are on the way. Thanks for the great stay!

Vicki's house is great! The room itself it clean, and you have a lot of privacy(the whole ground level to yourself) The house is in a gorgeous nature setting next to a beautiful lake that you can go kayaking. Perfect place to get a retreat, get away from the city, and get insipid by nature! Vicki and Henry are wonderful people. Nice, intelligent, caring, and we had great conversations and learnt a lot from their perspectives of the world! I will definitely come back!

Vicki's place is lovely! The house is cozy, clean, and bright. The pond is gorgeous. And Vicki and her husband were very welcoming and quick to communicate when GPS proved confusing. I warmly recommend staying with them if your in the area.

Vicki and Henry are awesome hosts!

These are great people. Accommodating in any and every way, Vicky and Henry welcomed us into their home as if we were family. The guest space was immaculate, comfortable and nicely decorated as a Maine country home. Looking out of the large windows down through the cedars and hemlocks onto the quiet pond was an added pleasure. This is a 5 star of 5!

Vicki & Henry were friendly and excellent hosts! Unfortunately our travel schedule didn't really allow us to greatly utilize their beautiful space, but they made us feel very at home and comfortable. The 'room' is your own private basement with a bathroom & shower, lots of open space, a comfortable couch and some chairs, wood stove, and all sorts of great rustic Maine decor. Beautiful view right out on to the lake too!

Vicki was a perfect and thoughtful host. We had a great time at her place - and actually we should have stayed longer, because her place was just so beautiful right at the lake. We had a separate room which was perfectly clean and also looked very very nice with a perfect view on the lake. If I'm ever in the region again I will definitely give Vicki a call! :) Also, we asked for the room on very short notice and Vicki managed our enquiry instantly. That's another huge plus!

Staying here was a great experience for us and thank you so much for your great accommodations and hospitality!

Nice room and living area with a comfortable bed. Everything was as expected, based on the description given. The hosts were very friendly.

Il posto di Giovanni è stato grande! abbastanza rustico per allontanarsi da tutto per un paio di giorni, ma servizi sufficienti (griglia, pompa pioggia, lavandino, ecc), che è comodo. La posizione è assolutamente bellissimo

John's Moon Country-Rustic Camping is one of the quietest, most romantic places I've ever spent time. The cabin is down an all be it bumpy, but beautiful drive through the woods which opens up right next to the water. John was extremely courteous and generous with his time and resources. He even connected us with a local who we commissioned to ride horses with. It was the best weekend I've had in years. If you're going to go, get up there now. The leaves are vibrant!

Abbiamo avuto un weekend meraviglioso soggiorno in cabina di John. La cabina era accogliente e la luce riempito e il lago era cristallina, bella e congelamento. John era una grande schiera: comunicativa e disponibile. Lo consiglio per un fine settimana rilassante e rustico! Ricordati di portare propano per la stufa campo e legna da ardere se si tratta di un fine settimana di pioggia.

Il cottage era molto bella e rustica. I punti di vista erano belle e ci è piaciuto sentire le svassi chiamata. Se l'isolamento e tranquilla bellezza ciò che avete in mente, questo è il posto!

这一切只是就像他在广告中说!这是隐蔽的和华丽的小屋是可爱极了!约翰很快回复我的邮件太多,这很不错。

E 'stata una grande cabina di poco! Molto dolce e caratteristico con solo le cose che avete bisogno in esso! Il bagno era pulito e facile da usare e l'acqua ha funzionato bene anche. Abbiamo dormito bene con le finestre aperte e le svassi chiamando! Un treno ha fatto passare a mezzanotte uno dei nostri due notti che ci ha svegliati, ma era un po 'fresco per essere così vicino a. La passeggiata verso il basso per l'acqua sopra i binari era bello e facile, ma non c'è un luogo reale di accedere all'acqua facilmente. C'è un corso d'imbarco scia di fronte alle tracce lì quindi è stato divertente per sedersi e guardare le barche che passano attraverso di essa! C'era un po 'di edera velenosa via il percorso in modo da testa a testa se si indossano sandali! Abbiamo apprezzato quanto appartato questo era e abbiamo dormito bene nel loft :) Grazie per aver noi!

John was very helpful and answered questions right away. The cabin is beautiful, definitely "in the middle of nowhere" but that's exactly what we wanted. Swimming was great but I didn't realize there would be so much motor boat action on the lake, that was a little bit of a turnoff. Did I mention the cabin is wonderful? It really is. We hope to be back to the area some day!

We had a fantastic stay here! The lakefront house was absolutely stunning and the perfect place to relax and enjoy the summer weather and the lake. It is a great house on a peninsula on the lake and feels very private and secluded. The description provided was accurate. David was an amazing host. He was very friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. He was there to greet us at the house and very informative about how everything worked and where everything was. My family and I took full advantage of the many commodities offered from the screened in porch to the two docks, fire pit and kayaks. David made everything very easy and had amazing recommendations about everything we wanted to do :) Thanks for a great stay!

This was our second year staying in the Lakefront cabin, and while we didn't think it could get any better than last year, somehow it did! The lakefront home is truly unique and special, incredibly peaceful and beautiful. You have private access to part of Echo Lake, in which we swam several times daily. We saw great wildlife, including eagles, chipmunks, and very cool loons right outside our window. David made some great upgrades to the house, including a new stovetop, new fridge, and he connected the grill to the gas from the house, making it very convenient and easy to use. The place is great, the beds are very comfortable and it is easy to sleep like a baby there. David is an excellent host: he contacts you before the trip to see if you have any questions, and he is available to you once you arrive. He is extremely helpful and welcoming without being intrusive at all. This place is an excellent setting for a peaceful respite - we can't wait to return next year!

This is one special place, it felt like having my own vacation home away from it all. Situated under the cover of pine trees at the very edge of a fairly large lake, it's completely isolated. My family spent their days swimming, reading & kayaking. The only sounds you hear are the lapping of the water the loons and an occasional water skier. Farm stand markets are close by for extra provisions and the roads in the area are great for long bike rides. I found house well kept, spacious with just the right amount of open space and private rooms for everyone to be comfortable. The host is adept at being available yet unobtrusive. We made many a wonderful meal in the kitchen and outdoor firepit. Can't wait for the next visit.

My family and I stayed at David's lake-house for a week in late August- the place is truly paradise. The house has panoramic views of the water from every window, and the interior (which you can't tell from the pictures) is absolutely gorgeous- tastefully designed and styled in every way: large bedrooms, beautiful architecture, with an open common area with great natural light and a beautiful stone fireplace. We spent the days lounging and fishing off the dock, reading on the porch, kayaking and grilling dinners. There is also a large tent set up on the edge of the property, right by the water for those who want to sleep outside for a night listening to the loons! David, in addition, was the perfect host (he even had a fire going for us when we arrived!) extremely helpful but non-intrusive - by far our best host on the site yet. My whole family hopes we can return next summer! If you are looking for a secluded getaway, wonderful host, and beautiful house, this is it. The area is especially unique in that it has not been built-up like many other lakes - absolute serenity! While we loved being there for swimming and kayaking during summer, I imagine it would also be a beautiful winter get-away. Thanks so much David!

We couldn't have imagined a better place to relax and "unplug" for a week!! The house was just as described/pictured and the location exceeded our expectations. The views were amazing and the lake was perfect for swimming and fishing. As the nights were cooler, we took advantage of the amazing fireplace, it was the perfect way to end the day. On the days that we did not have great weather we took advantage of the many hiking trails in Belgrade while stopping at the Post Office in Mt. Vernon for a fabulous breakfast. David was a great host, always available and shared his love for the lake with us, which was greatly appreciated. This trip was just for myself and my husband but we can't wait to return with the kids and dog!

This lakefront Maine cottage is actually a little MORE beautiful and perfect than the posted photos suggest. The location is beautiful, serene, peaceful. The house is welcoming, and extra special. We were extremely pleased with the house and with David's hosting. I can't recommend the experience too highly. From the enormous living room fireplace, to the mirror-calm lake itself, everything about this weekend exceeded my expectations. The drive down the 1 mile dirt road to the house was a great mood setter. Piney woods, Loons, grilling on the back deck, coffee on the dock as the mist lifted off the water. It's all here. Do yourself a favor, book this property.

We had a wonderful stay at this gorgeous lake house for the second year in a row! David is a fantastic host and very friendly, helpful and knowledgable about the property, lake and surrounding areas. We only wish we could've stayed longer!

This was my family's second time vacationing at Echo Lake and once again we had a fantastic two weeks. We felt that the house was perfect last year, but David has made a few improvements that really had great impact. There is a new, professional grade cooktop in the kitchen along with an extended island area allowing for 2 people to sit in there while you are cooking. David also connected the grill to the propane tank, so you never have to worry about running out of propane - a great thing because once you get to Echo Lake you don't want to leave! The screened porch has also been upgraded with a new screen system. I can't say enough about how wonderful the screened porch is. We spent many mornings and evening enjoying the loons and the lake from the porch! We had cool weather for a few days this year allowing us to use the fireplace. I think the fireplace is one of the most beautiful we have ever had the pleasure to use. The Roku allowed us to watch sports (F1, Wimbledon, and the Euro Cup) during the cold weather, which worked out great. David is an exceptional host. He truly loves the lake and can provide you with answers to any questions that you may have. My teenage boys heard about free donut Tuesday at Lakeside Orchards from David and needless to say went on Tuesday to enjoy them! You can also get fresh produce while you are getting donuts. David also loves dogs and welcomed our golden retriever to the house, which is rare in rentals, but wonderful for us because it wouldn't be a lake vacation without our dog that absolutely loves the water. The bottom line of this review is that I can't say enough wonderful things about this property or David. I just wish we could rent it for the whole summer and never leave!

My husband and I had a wonderful time. It's a lovely place, very rural so if you're looking to really get away this is a good choice! Kathie was available to answer any questions we had. Wish we were still there!

This is a beautiful area of Maine and we loved exploring from such a wonderful cabin as our home base. The cabin was perfect--exactly as described in Kathleen's profile and pictures. Kathleen was also a wonderful host. She provided a ton of useful information and was very responsive any time I had a question. She also left out some wonderful books and toys for our toddlers and had a high chair ready and waiting which was so appreciated! A wonderful experience!!!

The Log Home in Kents Hill was everything promised. It is situated in a lovely private wooded neighborhood a short walk from a secluded and picturesque lake. Although Kathleen was not close by, she was very easy to contact and full of helpful information. The home is spacious and well stocked. We grilled outside one night and found everything we needed including some spices and olive oil! The rooms are clean and comfortable and the location is breathtakingly beautiful. My only regret is that we could't stay longer.

We had an amazing time staying at Kathleen's log cabin. The place was exactly as described on the listing, and even better in person. Kathleen was very communicative and left perfect instructions on how to use everything and had great recommendations of local places. When we arrived, everything was in pristine condition. Couldn't have been better! Absolutely recommend that you stay here and we hope to make a return trip soon.

The log home was the perfect location for a quiet weekend getaway! Kathie was quick to respond to any questions that I had. The home itself was cozy while still feeling spacious, and had all the comforts of a resort. The hot tub was definitely my favorite feature. :-) I would highly recommend this home to anyone who is looking for a relaxing getaway with family and/or friends.

Kathleen was a wonderful host, and the house and amenities were exactly as described. My girlfriend Ksenia was turning 30, and we decided to celebrate it just the two of us in a quite romantic place, away from it all. Kathleen was kind enough to offer a late check-out when we booked, however, the next day when we were driving to the log, Kathleen had kindly asked via text if we could leave earlier because other guests had booked for the day when we were leaving... In the end after a few texts back and forth while on the road, we agreed to leave at 5, which we did. When we got to the house the first night ( after a long drive from New York City), the lights were on, the house was empty, and everything we needed to enjoy ourselves was there. The place really looked like a dream upon arrival, and was extremely cozy! We did all the fun things, and had a great time! I strongly suggest also buying food in town so you can cook in the house. We left everything clean and in place as per the instructions/suggestions. The whole experience was fantastic. The only reason I'm nicking a star off is because the day we were ready to leave Kathleen had asked if we could gather our sheets and towels and put them in the washer, and then wait until the cycle is done and move the towels and sheets into the dryer. She was very specific about the settings with the dryer and washer. We got back from hiking and when I saw her text it was close to 5PM (the time we had to leave), so we did as we were kindly asked to do, and left the sheets and towels in the washer. Frankly, I think this was out of line for me tho. When you pay to stay at a hotel, the hotel manager never asked you to wash the sheets and towels before you leave. In the end, like I said, we left the sheets and towels in the washer, but could not wait to move them to the dryer and wait for the dryer cycle to end, etc. Luckily, Kathleen's nice friend Sue came by, and I'm pretty sure she took care of that for us. Thank you Sue! I also think that the document of suggestions/instructions, is VERY helpful, but a bit too long and feels slightly more like 'instructions' than 'suggestions/tips'. It somewhat made me and my girlfriend feel a bit stressed. I would make that document shorter Kathleen :) The day before the towel/sheet thing I had decided after many texts too call and thank Kathleen for her letting us stay in her wonderful home. We thank you again Kathleen, and wish you the best!

Kathie was more than accommodating. The house was even better than the pictures! My boyfriend and I wanted a long weekend getaway and this couldn't have been more perfect. There are multiple trials around the house as well as a pond to kayak around. I felt instantly relaxed as soon as we pulled in the driveway, I didn't want to leave. We will definitely be booking this house again!

This house is absolutely gorgeous and perfect for a retreat. Everything is exactly how Kathleen describes it and is a great host. Very enjoyable vacation.

This cabin is the perfect spot for a nice relaxing getaway on Great Pond. We rented the cabin over Labor Day weekend so that we could enjoy our time on the lake and then attend our friends wedding on Jamaica Point. We had everything we needed to do both. Highly recommend renting this spot!

The cabin and location were excellent. We arrived quite late in the evening due to the timing of our flights and everything was ready for us and a light was left on...

This was my first time using Airbnb, and it was a great experience. Liz was a great host, the description of the accommodations was spot on, and the location was excellent: a 5-10 minute walk to town and right next to Hello, Good Pie --one of the best bakeries in Maine according to Downeast Magazine. What more could you want?! The space was very clean, nicely furnished and the beds (two full/queen beds and two twins) were very comfortable. I highly recommend this spot if you're in the area!

Great 2 bedroom in lovely quaint village. Clean and homey touches. Walk to restaurants, shops, grocery, etc. The cape cod architecture reminded me of the house I grew up in. Large kitchen. Lots of windows and sunlight.

This is one of the cutest houses ever. There is a bakery next door and that's where we went to grab breakfast. Liz was very accommodating and the house is quite spacious. There are many rooms and I felt very comfortable staying here. I would definitely love to come back!

We absolutely loved this place and Liz is a wonderful, thoughtful host. It's perfect for a family or even for a business meeting, because even the small office has everything one might need. Plus, the bakery next door is more than just a bakery, it's a well stocked gourmet shop with a wide variety of delicious prepared foods! We highly recommend this gorgeous spot with the beautiful Craftsman style interior just walking distance from the little beach on beautiful Long Pond in the quaint little village of Belgrade Lakes.

Liz is a phenomenal hostess. I've only stayed in a few Air BnB's so far, but she is the first to go out of her way to make sure we felt welcome by leaving fruit, candies and a fridge filled with yogurt and juice for us. Such a welcoming gesture! Also, she was incredibly communicative. I had the good fortune to bump into her at the pie shop next door (she recognized me from my photo), and she was filled with information about where to hike, where to swim, what to do, etc. There really is something for everyone at this location. The house is absolutely ADORABLE! It's well-decorated, spacious, smartly laid out and well-stocked. Having the pie/coffee shop right next door is so unbelievably convenient. It's really fun to hang out there, and the food is great. There is a lot to do in the Belgrade Lakes region, and we found this location really convenient. Swimming areas are close by as are kayak and canoe rentals. The town benefits from some cool food additions such as the pie shop, a new BBQ place and a gyro wagon so it was super easy to grab lunch. We were sad we didn't have more time to spend here. The cozy house feels like home!

Lovely Cape, felt very welcomed by the host, and the whole family fit comfortably. Traveled for a wedding, so not much time to explore the little antique shops near by. The views of the lake are a just short walk, and the Bakery next door is a must!

We enjoyed our stay! Thank you for your hospitality. Cape was very cute, clean, and well appointed. We will return for another stay. Thank you!

The house was so cute, with tons of character and plenty of room. Liz had it all set-up like a little hotel with clean white towels, mini soaps, baskets of snacks and fresh fruit and orange juice in the fridge. If that wasn't enough, it's right next to an adorable bakery with the most amazing cinnamon rolls. It was a six minute walk to the downtown area and about the same to the public beach. WiFi was included too.

We had a fantastic week at this home! The hosts were very responsive and made sure we had everything needed to have a great time. We can't wait to come back again!

We had a fabulous time in Belgrade. The setting is absolutely stunning and it was a nice winter retreat. Plenty of room and activities. And the host was very responsive to our questions.

Our group had an awesome long weekend at the house. The owners were so easy to work with, the lake is beautiful and the small town is within close walking distance (restaurant, bar, bakery, general store). The home has all modern amenities and plenty of space. We only wished we had stayed longer to take advantage of all there is to do! Thank you!

Tiffany and Clyde were great hosts with a beautiful home right on the lake. Would absolutely come back and stay again!

Great house and helpful host

Loved this house! The house is quite big on the inside and comfortably slept 11 people. The views were great as the house is right on the lake with the docks steps away. I would highly recommend this place.

The view was spectacular - the house was very clean with all new kitchen appliances - and a gourmet gas stove and oven. The deck was huge - great for entertaining - with a brand new gas grill, a cooler to store beverages, and a pair of bottle recycling bins - that had a nice dark wicker finish that helped it blend into the scenery. The basement had full size ping-pong, fuzeball, air hockey table, and more. The fire pit by the water was a favorite gathering place after dark. And the little town of Belgrade within walking distance - with a country store, village inn, and an amazing bakery. Don't miss out on the kayaking while you're there, and if you are up for it, try the cold water swim!

The listing description actually didn't do the place justice. It's better than the pictures! We were pretty blown away. Very responsive hosts. Great amenities. Amazing view!! Good for a group. Location superb.

This stay was my family's first airbnb experience, so I was anxious. At $2,000 ish/week, this is an investment. For my family, this was an excellent investment. The house is beautiful. The lovely path to the lake is short and shaded and soft with pine needles and mulch. The hammock is strong. The porch is shaded and comfortable when the afternoon gets hot. The fire pit is s'mores ready. The house is a home, with all you need to sleep well, prepare meals and just have fun. We were six adults: mom, dad, and four adult children. The three bedrooms served us well with the exception of the third/children's bedroom. Although the mattress was sound, the "support" is a piece of plywood, suitable for a child of 10 but not for MY child of 28. I think a bunky board or other box spring type of foundation would work well. Otherwise, the listing should make it clear that the beds in the third bedroom are for kids. There is absolutely no sound-abatement in this wonderful house, so everyone hears every single thing that everyone else says (and does). This wasn't a problem for us, but it might be for a different group of guests. The house does not have an "assigned" or dedicated dock. The house is part of a homeowner's association that owns three docks. If the dock closest to the house is occupied, try one of the other two docks. When we wanted to swim and sun, we were able to find an open dock. We are already planning two weeks next summer. I hope that says it all.
