Historic cottage in seaside village of Searsport. Pet friendly!

We loved our stay here! This was a more last-minute booking as our other property fell through and the host was so accommodating! Great communication with our kind host, who had suggestions about what her own grandkids love to do in the area (we traveled with our five-year-old).The photos are accurate and the property is very clean and well-kept with updated kitchen and baths. The air conditioning was so nice and cool in the heat, and we loved having three TVs and two bathrooms. We were supposed to have another family stay with us, and the setup would have been perfect with one family upstairs and the other down—a really nice divide if you’re staying with friends or family. Having a dishwasher and washer/dryer on-site was so convenient! The location is perfect for us—we have family on Mosman and Steamboat and it’s walkable to Edward Brothers, local shops and restaurants, Mosman Park, and the beach. We also really appreciated that the check-out list was incredibly reasonable: all we had to do was start a load of towels, strip the beds we used, run the dishwasher, and lock up. Easy peasy, and so much nicer than the 20-item check-out list (yes, seriously) that we got at our last rental. Her prices are incredibly reasonable for the space and convenience you get, especially over a holiday weekend. We appreciated our time here and will definitely be back!

It is family friendly

Was for family

Owner was easy to communicate with and quick to respond. House was WELL stocked with everything we needed! Linens were soft. Kitchen appliances & tools were plentiful. Nightly rate was appropriate for location and amenities. Hey Sailor restaurant has good food and is only steps away. The local market was closed for renovations during our stay, but it wasn’t far from the large chain grocery. The town of Belfast is super close and has a great downtown area. Food: Eat More Cheese, farm to table, Japanese. Shopping: dollhouse miniatures, gifts, second hand, shoes, green living, etc. Parks and hiking trails nearby allowed us to take both short and long hikes with the dogs. Train ride in Unity was a bit on the boring side but wasn’t a bad way to kill an hour and would be great for kids and folks looking for something relaxing. Nearby was the Alpaca Experience! Really nice owners and you have the option to pay a little and get in the pen with the animals. Giftshop had a good selection. Things to note: 1. Stairs to the second floor are narrow and would not be easy for anyone with mobility challenges. 2. Track lighting is kitchen could be dangerous for anyone over 6’. My 6’5” husband really struggled to avoid hitting his head. 3. House is damp but if you run the nice AC units, it helps a lot. 4. On a decently busy road and locals go by fast...be careful with pets. With 2 cars the back ends were right on the road.
