This house has amazing charm and views of the water and the rooms are large and spacious. All the rooms are nicely furnished allowing for comfortable stay. There were some issues which we addressed with the owner and they were responsive to correcting as best they could. Would recommend for the location could not be beat.

South Thomaston stay
Well we had a very untraditional foggy week. But nobody can control the weather. The house was great. A little cobwebby in places and the bbq grill was rusted out. We also couldn’t close the master bedroom door. But it didn’t take away from our enjoyment. The steps that folks mentioned prior have been fixed. But for the price, we were perfectly happy. The owners were very responsive when we had a couple of questions. Note for non Maine peeps. They don’t recycle in Maine. At the end of our trip we found a glass recycling place at Hannafords in Town so that would have been good to know before.

Beautiful Home in a magical location
The home and location are absolutely incredible. The house is surrounded on three sides by water with amazing views from almost every window. Located in one of the most spectacular parts of the mid coastal region the overall area is also a huge plus. The house itself is beautifully designed and well appointed. There are a few perplexing omissions in appointments, like one bedside table per bedroom and a total of three Adirondack chairs outside...but honestly...the benefits far outweigh any deficits. Also the upkeep of the property overall is not great...weeds in all of the walkways and the wooden steps to the water in pretty bad shape, but again, far outweighed by the positives. Wifi is not great...anyone planning a working vacation with zoom calls should consider bringing a router because the cell coverage is not great either, so using your phone as a hot spot is not an option. The house was SUPER comfortable for three adult couples. It would be a stretch for 8 people because the little cottage doesn't have a bathroom and there is only seating for 6 at the outdoor table. I would absolutely rent this place again for 6 people.

Needs maintenance
Previous comments submitted by others are accurate. weeds are high, stairs to the chairs on the rocks are rotted out. Hair balls around the floors. Large -med sized rocks in the driveway. No umbrella at the outdoor table as pictured. We need to by paper towels, garbage bags, napkins, toilet paper. Shower drain was clogged filling the upstairs shower basin up with water. (fix here was a bottle of Draino they dropped off) it worked for while. This could be a really nice place with some reasonable management suited to its value. We cleaned the kitchens and bathrooms when we arrived due to the lack luster prep prior to our arrival. great view though and peaceful

Can’t say enough how beautiful the location is
Everyone was happy from my 98 year old father to my 18 year old son. The house is spacious, comfortable, and lovely. The views from every window and deck are gorgeous. We loved just sitting out on the rocks watching the water, but also enjoyed our kayak rentals. Dan from Duck Trap Kayak Rentals delivered the kayaks and picked them up.

The views for the home were more than what we hoped for. The home is in a tranquil location that is remote yet with easy access to Rockland's restaurants and stores. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking. The bedrooms were comfortably furnished and provided views in every direction of the home. We hope to stay annually at this home!

Embellished
I’ve never left a bad review! I will begin with the positives. Good location and wonderful view! The home is comfortably suited for 6 people. It advertises 8. It can accommodate more if you bring your own air mattresses. The “tiny home” offers a window seat bed which he advertises as the “ XL twin”. When I asked the owner to detail how the home sleeps 8 when i only saw 2 kings, 1 queen and “xl twin” he only described the above fore mentioned. It can accommodate 7 but the 7th wouldn’t be comfy unless they were a 10 year old child.. When we arrived I reached out to question a few things. French doors, broken toilet seat downstairs, no propane for the grill, upstairs’ master TV would not work. We found out about the broken toilet seat when my 81 year old mom almost skied right off of it and the propane tank after we picked up things to grill for our first night. He told us about the French doors and he replied that the rest was news to him and said he would send someone asap. This was Sunday AM of our Saturday-Saturday stay and heard nothing else back from him nor did he send anyone. We bought propane, I duct taped the sliding toilet seat and we just didn’t watch tv in the bedroom at bedtime The outdoor garbage cans are too little for the amount of garbage that 8 people make. 1 of them was half full when we got there 🤷‍♀️ I asked him about garbage day and he finally answered me Friday Night. We had to leave 3 tied garbage bags outside of the cans. If I rented out at 6,000 a week property, Id make myself or a property manager available. Other things, The floor under the master upstairs had dust balls, the toilets weren’t the cleanest at all and there is a whole in the ceiling at the living room French doors and there is black and white dog fur around the throw rugs. We did have a yellow lab with us. The gazebo is rotting out as well as the steps to the two chairs sitting on the rocks-be careful. No umbrella to the outside table and there are weeds galore including two big bouquets coming put of the driveway. Landscaping has been ignored. Also if there was a shovel, I would have gladly shoved the rocks away from the tiny house. 1 last thing, the owner sent a message the day before our arrival that the shared driveway would only accommodate 2 vehicles. The link he sent with points of interest, restaurants etc advertises the property is equipped with plenty of parking.. We made it work with our 4 vehicles!

Lovely relaxing location.
Beautiful location to unwind! Great private beach for the little ones to play in. Good area to launch kayaks. The house is lovely but needs care. The owner should take some time to fix all the little things such as screen replacement, toilet seat replacement, and do a deep clean. Relaxing, beautiful, and would go back.

September At Lobster Landing -Nice House Beautiful View!
When we arrived cleaning crew had missed some things, refrigerator very dirty, we had to clean the refrigerator before we could load it. We had a small problem with towels (missing some) but property management group happily took care of it. I have used VRBO quite a few times now, suggestions for improvements for this house would be, label all remote controls as to which room(TV) they belong in, the remotes were all in one closet downstairs. Leave written instructions on how to use the stereo, electronics etc, and how to lock the doors it's not obvious or easy to figure out. The kitchen cookware, most is unuseable, which was a bit disappointing, recommend replacing set each year or as needed. We bought our own pan and utensils to cook with for our one week stay.
