The house was clean a nice place to stay. We were there in September, and the pool was not heated, so be aware of that. That didn't matter to my group. My only comment is that they had several plug in scent units around the first floor, and that smell was a bit too much for some of us, so we unplugged them while we were there. Problem solved.

nice house just as advertised, very comfortable beds, communication with host was excellent, no surprises. House was only 6 minutes from boat ramp of Messalonskee Lake where we went ice fishing. Great year-round destination house!

Last minute notification on only I working shower. The house has potential but not really ready because several minor details need to be completed.
