The house was very clean and cozy. It is in a wooded area so there are ants inside, but that was no reflection on the cleanliness. If you have lower back troubles the couch may exacerbate them, but with a few extra pillows I found it to be just fine. Very nice place all around.
Me and my two teenagers stayed here for 3 nights and had an absolutely wonderful experience. The home is exactly as advertised, clean, well-stocked and cute as can be. The first night we had a power outage and the wood stove kept us warm (and it was fun and cozy!). Everyone slept extremely well on comfy beds. The shower was perfect and the kitchen had everything we needed to make meals.It was truly a fantastic stay and we will be back soon!
We only stayed for one night, but this cottage was all we needed. Itâs been thoughtfully remodeled, was very clean, and all the beds were comfy. Our ten-year-old loved the âcuckoo clock roomâsâ loft doors. If our travels take us this way again, would definitely stay here.
My husband and I stayed at Michaels rental for a wedding weekend in Maine. The location was perfect for the two of us. The space was clean and Michael was very responsive to our questions and prompt to help us get in the property. Would highly recommend for a small family getaway!
We visited in winter time, lots of snow and beautiful scenery. The home is cozy and relaxing, we cooked every morning. The general store up the street has everything you need. The location was convenient , not more than an hour from anywhere interesting. We loved our stay!
Our stay at this property was excellent, start to finish. Priced right for the location and the amenities, the place was everything as described. Comfortable bedding, flexible sleeping arrangements (3 bedrooms) and well equipped. Communication with the manager/owner was easy and quick. Highly recommend this property for a no frills experience. About an hour drive to Sunday River resort where we skied.
Thankful for the one night availability and Mike was great allowing us to check in a bit early after driving 3 hours to get ready for a family wedding! House was immaculate and convenient to the venue.
The house is very cute, in a good location for peace and quiet. It was kind of boring, and we tried to find the beach or something to do and there really wasn't too much. We wished we had brought some games or something to do. The owners and managers were very nice and super helpful.
We stayed for a week. It was great. Quiet, cozy and clean. Bed ate comfortable, kitchen had all the necessities, and a few extras too. The perfect place to unwind and just get away from it all. Yet only a short day trip to Portland, Bangor and many other small coastal towns.
The process from beginning to end was smooth and the host was very pleasant and helpful. Everything was labeled in the property and the property itself was cozy and very welcoming. Everything was clean and the area was excellent. I recommend this property to anyone who wants to get to know a little bit about the real Maine, not just Vacationland.
My friend and I get together a few tomes a year to scrapbook and the space was great . The home is very clean the beds were very comfortable. The only thing that we were a little disappointed with was we could not get enough hor water for a nice soak in the bath tub.
I loved everything. The only thing I would suggest is putting a sensor light in the driveway. Itâs very dark at night being country. It would be easier to back out of the driveway. Definitely will be back.
We lived in a cute nice house that was unfortunately opposite the schoolbus depot and on the ME - 140. There was heavy trafic on the road from 6 am to 9 pm , because it was on the federal highway.
Access was quite easy thanks to a numerical code.
Apart from the noise from the street, we really iked the house and the surrounding aera.
I'm from the south and I was cold the first night.
The property is nice and well maintained. That said, I was very cold. I realize that energy is expensive, however, entering the house with one heater set to low was inadequate. It was 42 degrees outside when I arrived and I could not appreciate any warmth as I entered the house. Without my heating pad, I would have suffered the first night. It took until the next morning for the house and furnishings to warm adequately. I expected the house to be at least 65 degrees inside on arrival. There's absolutely no way that it was near that level of comfort the first night.
I work as a touring artist and media producer and love to travel and escape into nature. My partner, Andrea, who is originally from Prague, Czech Republic, is a woman of many talents who loves nature and the arts. We make our home together here in rural Maine. We enjoy Airbnb hosting and welcome guests from all around the world. When we travel, we prefer to stay away from the touristy places and hang out with the locals, discovering hidden places and having authentic experiences. We live nearby our Village House in case there are any issues that come up with our rentals.
This is a great property for folks who are visiting family or friends in the area, planning outdoor activities, attending weddings or events, or who are in the area for work assignments. The internet is fast for doing work on line and everything is convenient being right in the village. Our neighbors are quiet and respectful.
The Nifty Village House is an authentic homestay. It's not a commercial rental property. It feels like a real home because it has many handcrafted features and the furnishings that are family treasures that go back several decades.
