The property is absolutely beautiful. The house was welcoming and well kept. Even with a little guy, it was relaxing and rejuvenating. Being on the river was breath taking and made for some incredible sunset watching! We truly enjoyed our time and hope to visit again in the future!

The house was not clean. Dust and cobwebs everywhere. The porch smells so bad you could not use it. The outside areas were filthy. The shower was was a joke.

This place was good enough for the price but there were carpenter ants crawling everywhere and the dryer did not work. While we felt it was an okay stay for the price, after we checked out the host is trying to extort us saying we broke the kitchen counter and the futon (that no one even slept on). Do NOT stay here

Quiet Cabin in a beautiful location

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at stille washer. This cabin is nestled in the woods right on the Saco river. This area is very still so in made for great swimming and floating. The location is within 30 minutes to beaches and Portland. Lots to do around the area. The cabin is gorgeous and Barry was a lovely host.
