Adorable! I stayed here with friends and this place was perfect. Comfortable, clean, and better than described. Had everything you could need for cooking, plenty of towels, blankets, and even little bottles of shampoo, conditioner and lotion. Nicely decorated too! Just a short walk to town…but best of all, it’s located right by Claws, the most delicious lobster shack in town!
Great location. Quite neighborhood. Very clean and comfortable! Highly recommend! :)

Reviewer Comments:
Rockland wasn’t our favorite town, but it was a perfect central spot to explore the coast of Maine. This home was very clean and newly renovated. Our family enjoyed it and would definitely go back. No air condition in the bedrooms but we were never there during warm hours and it cooled quickly with the coastal air at night.
