Nicely renovated unit!

Very nice and clean place. We used this rental as a hub to go around and see lots that Maine had to offer. Hosts were very nice and kept a very clean place.

Fun visit

This was a great place to stay, cental to places we wanted to see. Has water acess and lots of toy/boat options. Saw some loons, fireflies and the friendly free range chickens that would wonder around.

Amazing attention to detail

This property was wonderful. It had everything renters could ever need including an instant pot pressure cooker and excellent coffee machine that was stocked and ready to make good coffee. The cleanliness of the property was exceptional. The beds were very comfortable. We were in the area for cross country ski races and had a great stay.

Great Trip!

The response from the host was amazing! Our internet was a little slow the first day and they came and fixed it immediately. This house would be perfect for a family with kids. Lots of fun toys and extra beds in each bedroom. 10/10 recommend!!

Nice property, nice owners

This was a nice quiet spot to relax with family. The stream is on the property, and Gardiner was a great location to make as the base for our adventures around Maine. The owners couldn’t have been nicer

Great rental

We loved staying here! It was so nice to have a location where we could rest, our family could visit, and we could relax. The hosts were close by and responded to any requests immediately. We all enjoyed using the kayaks and paddleboard, and getting out on the water. W. Gardiner is centrally located for us, and a short distance to Augusta, downtown Gardiner, Brunswick, and Portland. Would highly recommend and stay there again.

Immaculate home, unusual arrangement

The property is stunning, very easy to access from the main roads. The rental is situated on the owner's property, and is completely separate and stand-alone from the owner's home and other outbuildings. The owner Irina is lovely and accessible. The rental is immaculate and still brand new (film wrap still on the chrome in the shower.) The layout of the rental unit is railroad style, with the bedrooms at opposite ends. It worked well for our family of 4 + a dog. However, the beds were low, loud, and uncomfortable. The LED lights were too white/blue for comfort, and too sparse throughout. More floor lamps and alternate lighting options would help a lot. The sparklingly clean home came with tons of linens, all the soaps you need for the kitchen, bathroom and washer/dryer. We were thrilled with the chickens who also live on the property (just hens, no roosters - ie no wake up calls at dawn.) It was just slightly strange walking down to the river dock - through the owner's yard while they were using it. They were pleasant enough, albeit an unexpected situation of sharing the property that was not disclosed in the listing.
