Wonderful family stay to enjoy the fall colors
We had a great stay! The house was exactly as pictured, very cozy and well equipped. Located near the water, a bit away from the busier areas around Brunswick, but conveniently closed to grocery stores and fun activities. The communication with the host was very smooth. Would definitely recommend staying here!

Cute cottage with rustic charm and great views of the sound. Neighbors were very nice and the short walk to the dock was an added bonus. The stairs were a bit creaky / loud which wasn’t an issue unless it was evening hours.

House was clean and well equipped. Able to cook our 26 lobsters and 2 crabs with the huge steamer pots. The location and view of the bay were outstanding. A tranquil place to relax - the hammock on the wrap around porch was icing on the cake! Easy to get to local attractions off of the island area. Neighbors were friendly. We had an amazing time, and would definitely go back.

The cottage was as described and very clean upon arrival. The location was excellent. Its top feature for us was the big porch where we spent as much time as possible. The furnishings are basic but adequate. An issue with a broken coffee pot was taken care of promptly by the property manager.

sweet spot
With or without binoculars, the view is quite stunning. Perched on a hill, looking over the waters to the open ocean, our cottage was just right! In our kayak or on the porch was where we spent most of our two days. Even when temps dropped with pouring rain outside, we were warm and cozy inside.

Spent a great week at Thorburn with another couple and our two dogs. The location was fantastic; remote enough to enjoy the scenery but close enough to town and excursions to our favorite spots (Erica's Cooks, Giant's stairs, Bowdoin). Loved the walk to the cove with our dogs. The neighbors in nearby cottages were friendly and we enjoyed talking with them. The cottage is a little creaky but that added to its charm. It was very comfortable and well-appointed. The rental staff was nice to work with and communication was great. We look forward to visiting again.

We had a lovely 4-night, 5-day getaway at this rental home. The location offers truly beautiful views of the cove, which we enjoyed from morning until sunset. A huge bonus was having access to the shared dock and launch site, which made taking our kayaks out effortless. We also enjoyed exploring the many hiking trails in the area. Check out Devils Back Trail and see the harbor seals. The house was extremely clean and well-maintained upon our arrival. Loved having the grill and the spacious porch for our steak and chicken dinner. Our experience with the rental agency, Mainestay Vacations, was top-notch. They were very helpful and answered all of our questions quickly and concisely. The only issue we encountered was the noise from the floors. Since the only bathroom was downstairs, the creaky floors made it difficult for anyone to go to the bathroom at night without waking up the rest of the household. While this was a minor inconvenience, it did impact our sleep.Overall, it was a great stay, and we highly recommend both the location and Mainestay Vacations for their excellent service.

The view is magnificent. But the property should have been inspected to ensure that dead mice weren't lurking under the furniture, that ceiling lighting fixtures had lamp shades, that torn lampshades were replaced, that dead light bulbs had been replaced, and that dead bugs were vacuumed out of the window wells before we arrived.The refrigerator sang and wailed to us sporadically for 3 weeks. We were assured that it was fine, and to be honest, the fridge didn't die--despite its wails. The screen door still needs to be replaced, and the mismatched porch chairs were just sad.But, oh, that view!

The cottage was super cute and perfect for our stay! My mom needs some extra help these days so the upstairs bathroom made it so she could go a bazillion times throughout the night without having to negotiate the somewhat steep staircase. The kitchen was perfect for making dinner and made us WANT to do the dishes with the gorgeous view. The property managers were very responsive with the small adjustment we needed. Would love to come back! Felt like the calm and inviting atmosphere we were looking for.

Reviewer Comments:
This is a lovely cottage with all of the charm of a typical Maine camp. It’s age was part of the appeal for us, the steep steps were not a problem for us, and we were fine with the squeaky Floors, but it might be an issue for some. This is a perfect location in Harpswell for accessing other attractions, we especially loved Stovers Point Preserve which is just down the road. The view from the porch is beautiful, and the area is exceptionally quiet. They’re very very friendly neighbors that were happy to provide information. The cottage sits up on a hill, with water access down the hill, a 4-5 min walk. But be aware, hauling kayaks back to the cottage is a 2 person job for something like a sea kayak. We rented from Seaspray for 3?days which was plenty of time. I would definitely stay here again and would like to see it available for long weekends. My only disappointment was the condition of the cookware- scratched and rusted Teflon. I went home for some errands and brought my own pans back.
