Downeast Getaway Victorian Cottage - Year-round

Downeast Getaway Victorian Cottage - Year-round

10/10 Excellent
"Fabulous. Perfect Bold Coast getaway. Peaceful, spacious, gorgeous property away from it all - but close enough to whatever you may want to see, do, eat or experience. Have been DownEast a few dozen times and will definitely come back to this property. Hosts lovely, attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. In particular the trails, water views, sunrise on the front porch, writing nook, fireplace, antique décor and spectacular fall color made leaving very difficult. Well stocked pantry, immaculate and cozy...and not an ounce of fussiness :-)"

"We enjoyed using the cabin to explore the bold coast. It would easily handle a bigger group than the four that we had. The kitchen had more and better equipment than any house we have rented.
