The cottage was in a nice, quiet neighborhood surrounded by trees. This was a nice backdrop for the back porch enjoyment. The cottage is very quaint for sure and the fireplace came in very handy on the quite cool evenings.The kitchen utensils need attention, other than that it is quite well equipped, except lacking a Lobster Pot, which in Maine is nearly unforgiveable! LOL.I was looking forward to using the, what looks like a lovely old tub, but in reality was a tub that needs refinishing, I was not able to have a bath. We were disconcerted to find no window coverings in the bathroom or bedroom. We took to covering the bathroom windows with the dish towels from the kitchen, carefully closing them in the hooked window frames.The bed was way too soft for our comfort, so if you like a firm bed be aware of that. I have to mention, for my sister the cobwebs from the beautiful open wood ceilings! The glass, especially the large window near the dining table could have been cleaner, which is expected, especially when being charged a cleaning fee. We went there for a nice quiet long weekend and that is what we got. It was a nice stay all in all. Steve was responsive and assisted when our GPS was not behaving.
