Great family trip to Maine

Lovely house. Spectacular view. There was plenty of room to spread out and relax in all of the different spaces. We enjoyed the kayaks and the canoe...AND the ping pong! So glad they were there to use. We would love to come and stay again.

Central Location

This property was the perfect location for our first trip to Maine. We explored areas around Belfast including Lincolnville, Rockport, Unity, Bucksport, Blue Hill/Deer Isle, & Acadia. All destinations were 25-90 minutes from the house. Belfast accommodated grocery and eating establishments that offered variety. There were 8 of us, adults, and each couple had their own bedroom with 3 bathrooms. Kitchen is well stocked and we comfortably ate breakfasts and dinners at the house. Host was very responsive when called to get assistance with TV for football. Would highly recommend as the and accommodations were very reasonable. Glad we selected this over a smaller out of the way location.

Lovely home on the river

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at this property. The views from all of the windows was spectacular and watching the tides rise and fall was a lot of fun. Gale the owner was very easy to work with. We will be returning.

Great location with a great view

We enjoyed coffee each morning on the porch overlooking the water. Explored the town of Belfast. Camden was about a 30 minute drive and Arcadia National Park was only about an hour and a half drive. Ended each day back out on the wonderful porch.

Lovely Home in Belfast

This home was exactly as pictured. Very quaint and cozy, with lots of space. We had 5 adults in our party, and we were very comfortable here. We found everything we needed in the kitchen to cook meals, the WiFi worked beautifully, and there was absolutely nothing to complain about. We would stay here again. The checkout process is a bit onerous if you're on a tight schedule - you must leave by 10am (and we left earlier due to travel plans) - but you are asked to wash and fold your towels, wash and put away any dishes, and take your recycling with you. Those were a challenge for us, but the week leading up to departure was a delight.

A beautiful house with an excellent location near Belfast Harbor

This was a gorgeous house with lots of room and plenty of places to spread out. In excellent condition, with a lot of extra amenities, and everything you could possibly need to stay. Beautiful views of the inlet, right next to the water, and in a nice quiet neighborhood. Very close proximity to Belfast, making it very easy to walk or drive there. Everyone in our group adored this house!!!!

Fantastic!

Gale was excellent at communicating with us. The house is as lovely as the pictures. We had so much space to spread out. The view of the river is fantastic! Belfast is perfect - not too touristy but plenty to do - restaurants, coffee, book stores. We had a wonderful vacation! We hope to come back. This is one of the best places we have ever rented.

Robins Nest

This is the second time we’ve stayed at this property and I hope it won’t be the last! It feels like home and located conveniently to so many sights and the town of Belfast. But best of all, the setting is beautiful and so relaxing. So whether you’re out exploring or just sitting around the fire pit loving life and enjoying your surroundings, it doesn’t get any better than here!

Fantastic house/ great location

The house is exactly as pictured in the listing. It is just beautiful with views from practically every window in the house. There are many different seating and dining areas to keep things interesting and the kitchen was well appointed. We walked and ran into town almost every morning for coffee and to watch boats coming and going. Robins Nest is perfectly situated to take day trips to Bar Harbor, Castine, Camden, etc. The house was very clean and Gale was great to deal with!

Perfect Weekend Getaway

The house was absolutely perfect for a weekend getaway and would’ve been great for a longer stay as well! Though our group spent most of our days exploring Maine in the fall, the house was a wonderful retreat in the evenings. The house has lots of living and lounge space which is great for larger groups and a large, fully stocked kitchen which served us well as we cooked most of our meals there. The two porches on the back side of the house not only offered a fantastic view, especially of the fall foliage, but also had large tables for us to use when we wanted to eat outdoors. Gale, the property manager, was super communicative throughout the whole booking and rental experience, and she was also incredibly helpful with providing tips about things to do and places to eat in and around Belfast! We all really enjoyed our stay and would certainly stay again!

A place for a great family stay !

We loved the house and location - it was a perfect place to stay for a family getaway. We made great use of being right on the river and kayaking, loved the fire pit and loved the house itself as well. It was well stocked for whatever we needed. Belfast was an easy walk away and we enjoyed going into town, hiking, and biking around the area as well.
