Our second year staying at Bonnie View. Great ocean views, well equipped kitchen, quiet location. Listing does mention a hot tub, but there is no hot tub. Host was communicative about the check in process.

Stunning views, spectacular property

I could not say enough good things about this amazing property. The kitchen is one of the best stocked and equipped rental properties we have ever stayed in, essentials++. The living area is very comfortable with stunning views of Muscongus Sound from all the windows. The master bedroom with king size bed is very comfortable, facing beautiful sunrises over the Sound. The location in the quiet village of Round Pond on a dead end street provides total peace and quiet. We did not use the downstairs basement space which provides a bedroom, separate sitting area and full bathroom. But this would be ideal for older teens or others who might want extra privacy. Honestly, the online photos for this property do not do it justice. Fantastic place. The only minor criticism is the gas grill could use an update, but who needs a gas grill with the nearby lobster pounds and seafood restaurants in the nearby towns?

A nice waterfront house

As first, I was not sure to publish a review as I don’t want people to notice and reserve ahead of me for next season, but the house is better than what you see on the photos. It’s a great house with a great view of the sea and located just up the street of the fisherman’s coop where you can buy fresh lobster. If I return to mid coast Maine, I will sure try to rent again this property. Also, I appreciate that Andy contact us to see if we have any questions and concerns.

Round Pond

House was exactly as described in the VRBO listing. The location was beautiful, quiet and relaxing. Lots of history in the surrounding towns to learn about. Scott was very responsive to a few questions ahead of our arrival. Would definitely book again.

Wonderful place

The place is very comfortable, immaculate, well furnished, good cooking appliances and eatery. The cottage overlooks the bay with a fair amount of bird activity (two Osprey constantly around). The deck was a perfect spot to look at the beautiful view. Very much liked the place. Down stairs seems nice and private even though the two of us never needed to use it. Highly recommend. Rick L.

Great Vacation Getaway

The cottage was lovely, comfortable and well-equipped. We enjoyed sitting on the deck sipping wine and looking out at the "pond." The village of Round Pond was a short drive away and the lobster shacks had plentiful supplies. We would love to return again one day! Andy was a super host and answered all my questions before we arrived. The only downside is that we had to provide our own sheets and towels. No biggie but inconvenient when you are flying cross-country. All in all, it was a wonderful stay!

Ever So Nice!!!

Sometimes, you can walk into a place and it just feels comfortable. Andy's place was like that! Very clean, well stocked and organized, I just can't say enough good things about it! Convenient kitchen. Living room has really comfortable seating, a smart TV, and windows overlooking the ocean. The deck.. plenty of space for grilling and chilling! The king size bed was really comfy!- great nights sleep! Private and quiet. Thoughtful touches abound! Location is close to a little harbor that's picturesque and quaint, with a a great lobster shack, small general store just around the corner, a gift shop and a charming little coffee house.. a must see! Pemaquid Beach is only a short drive away, with a white sandy beach and a beautiful view! Hardly anyone there in September, it was lovely! Day trips were easy from here. Andy was a terrific host and great to communicate with. The listing is accurate. I would highly recommend! We would love to return.

Round Pond Rates a 10!!!!

I can't say enough about this property as far as cleanliness, furnishings, location , waterfront view with seals and lobster boats and large birds flying by! It's just gorgeous!!!!! You can walk to a Preserve with trails and also the village of Round Pond is within walking distance. There were 5 adults in our party and we had plenty of room throughout our visit. Downstairs is a tv/sitting room that some used to do virtual workouts .If I had to find one criticism about the property it would be that as you go down the stairs there is a musty smell and we let the dehumidifier run the whole time. My husband and I slept downstairs so we had the dehumidifier noise but it didn't keep us from sleeping. I have allergies and they weren't bothered at all so I guess the dehumidifier does a great job!!! We all agree that this property deserves a "10" for the overall experience we enjoyed! I highly recommend this rental to families or groups of friends.

Outstanding property. Outstanding host.

Ok, I’ll admit it. I’m a clean freak and this property exceeded my expectations. The home is in a lovely, peaceful, quiet area. We enjoyed the view of the ocean during the day and the views of the Milky Way at night. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, and kitchen gadgets, so eating in was a breeze. There were restaurants just a few minutes away for takeout (including lobster dinners). The bed was comfy and there were lots of good books to read if so inclined. Lots of hiking in the area with beautiful ocean or river views. The host could not have been more responsive and pleasant to work with. All in all, a wonderful experience, Andy, thank you for sharing this property with us.

Heaven

This rental is cozy, has everything you could possibly need, and is beautifully designed. We could not believe the gorgeous views from the decks, almost every room, & how much private space this home provides. The location is perfect and so peaceful. Many local Round Ponders will consider renting this lovely home for future visiting friends & family.

Well furnished, with all the details for a complete experience. Wonderful little town & setting

Andrew has thought of everything to make a home-stay complete, from things like binoculars, night lights, a hair dryer, LOTS of games, to many useful kitchen items. Even some condiments and soaps were left by previous tenants, to make it easier to begin one's stay. The view from the home and deck are spectacular - I watched numerous cormorants fishing, saw a seal one morning, a jumping fish (which splashed so loudly that at first I thought a person had dived in - further inspection showed it to be a fish [or perhaps a mammal like a dolphin?]), and a lobsterman checking his traps right offshore. High rocks and a bench at the waterside make it easy to get close to the water to watch such things. The house sits on a quiet dead-end road ~ 1.4 miles (an easy walk) into the little town of Round Pond, which though small and "quiet" and free from busy traffic, has such enjoyable things as an ice cream "parlor", a coffee house, 2 lobster "shacks" with outside tables, a very nice restaurant, a general store complete with old-fashioned gas pump (a store which on Mondays hosts a jam session of about a dozen musicians), a bakery, and a church which hosts Wednesday night concerts. It's an easy drive to Pemaquid lighthouse and to Damariscotta, as well as Boothbay Harbor. A short walk from the house is a preserve in which one can access shoreline rocks to get into the water (Andrew's house is a bit too far above the water for this, so if you have little children who want water access, try the nearby preserve), and one can also walk around on the rocks near Muscongus Bay Lobster. This was our first experience renting a home in Mid-coast Maine along water, and based on the success of our week, I'm sure we'll return.

Can't wait to go back! Beautiful Coastal Home!

This home was the most beautiful I have ever stayed in. Hands down, this rental exceeded all of our expectations. The property was immaculate and had all the comforts of home and then some! The views were spectacular! The owner answered all of our questions in a timely manner. We could not have asked for a more lovely week spent on the coast of Maine. This was a memorable event for our family and we look forward to spending more time in this beautiful home next year. I highly recommend staying here for anyone wanting a top-notch experience. They have thought of everything, absolutely perfect!! Go, you won't regret it.
