A Stay in Tremont August 10-14th
This was our third stay renting a place on Mt. Desert Island, and our first time on this property. We stayed as two couples. Before arriving at the property I reviewed the listing extensively and messaged with the owner. Here is a very honest review! Overall, our crew had a wonderful time on the island and made the most of our trip; this review is relating to this property.
Pros:
The owner was responsive to questions upon arrival and got back to us within an hour.
Location to Bass Harbor Lighthouse was great!
Decent sized property.
Quiet neighborhood.
Loved watching the hummingbirds from the porch!
Cons:
Lack of working lightbulbs and lights that flickered throughout the house.
Carpets and furniture were stained.
Property was listed as having AC, upon arrival house was stuffy and there were two units for the entire house. Property manager did send over someone to remedy that, and we were appreciative.
House was damp with a mildew smell.
Floor not mopped prior to arrival.
Window broken in front bedroom, no one alerted before arrival. Back bedroom did not have blinds.
Drawer with silverware had loose food in it, all dishes/cutlery needed washing prior to use.
Overall, kind of disappointed with the house especially since we were upfront about our expectations. House was not worth the price. I wish I had seen an honest review such as this before we rented, so I am hoping this will assist other families/ make the property manager and owner make improvements.
