Guesthouse vacation rentals in Kennebec River

Beautifully rustic, quiet and charming! We booked Penny’s place because we were looking for a rustic stay. The weather in September was ideal for this indoor/outdoor space. Fully stocked kitchen, and loads of space for dining and relaxing. We lucked out and didn’t have anyone else staying on property while we were, and I will say it’s a bit of a fishbowl, so if you’re looking for privacy, it’s not here. We had a superb time!

I appreciated the hospitality Dee provided and the place was immaculate and comfortable. Everything I needed was there.

This is our second time staying here and we love it. It’s great for our little family of three. Feels like a little home away from home with everything you’d need. Steps away from a great trail and quick drive to so many other things. We love it here and will be coming back again.

We loved staying at Sarah’s place! It is so comfy and nicely designed. Sarah is super friendly and helpful. We had a fantastic experience. Highly recommended!

I absolutely loved this place! Very easy to find, great location on the lake and very peaceful! Leon has boats, kayaks and canoes to rent, firewood to purchase on site and was so helpful with everything. The home has everything I needed for my week stay, and was grateful to be able to bring my dog. I will definitely be returning to this little piece of heaven!!

We had a wonderful stay and could not have been happier with the accommodations. We appreciated the flexibility with letting us have day time visitors. Thank you!!!

Jon was very proactive and kind! Gave us lots of good recommendations and told us the story of his cabin. The cabin was very clean and cozy, we had great mornings having coffee outside. Highly recommend!

This is the perfect Maine cottage experience. Easy to enter cove water for a swim. Cannot beat the view/sunsets. Sitting on front porch is the best. Very well stocked kitchen. Would stay again! Be aware there is no WiFi connectivity if you need that and one of us needed that for a work emergency so found public access. Us old folks found the lock box remote entry confusing. There was a small boat house close by and although visually blocked by trees could hear people talking on porch one night. Very little toilet paper supplied which based on how well everything else was likely an oversight but forced a quick trip to the Island market before it closed.

Amazing place, amazing host. 100% recommended

My wife and I stayed for the first 2 weeks of May, our second time. We enjoy the privacy and the natural setting. The location is within 30 mins of everything we want to do and yet feels remote when we get back. We had a couple rainy days and the studio is comfortable enough, with the arched pine ceiling and large skylights, so that we enjoyed staying right there. When we arrived the tv was not working, but Jim, Marlene's husband, quickly took care of that as well as a couple other minor requests. My wife would like to stay there again and I would not hesitate except that I like to explore different areas, so we'll see.

Had such a nice long weekend here! The views from the studio out over the water are perfect for morning coffee and the place felt rustic and clean. Quiet neighborhood with some great places for pictures and The Grange, which has music and Fall craft fairs walking distance from the studio. The best food is in Rockland or Thomaston. I enjoyed the Waterworks and Ancho Honey restaurants. Parking around town is easy and (usually) free! Camden is also really pretty and historic and is nearby. Enjoyed my stay! Thank you :)

Chris’s place was beautiful and spotless. Had everything you could possibly need while being away from home. Anything I needed was right already provided, along with snacks for hikes and pancake mix that we used for breakfast on our final day before leaving. From the beautiful bathroom with the shower AND the tub, to the high ceilings in the kitchen/living room, the art that is all around the home, games, entertainment, etc. this place is absolutely perfect and we can’t wait to make our next trip to Maine to stay here again! Thank you so much for hosting us, Chris!

We highly recommend this place! Rob and Cassie were great, very responsive. The home was more beautiful in person than in the pictures and the view was wonderful!

This Airbnb was amazing in every way! We especially enjoyed the views of the mountains, the decor, how clean it was, the trees decorated with lights outside, and all the personal touches. It was inviting, comfortable, and had everything we could think of including sleds! (There was a privacy screen to put between the beds which was an added bonus). The Moody Mt. Cottage was the perfect location for a cozy winter getaway to hike and relax. We highly recommend staying here. You won’t be disappointed. Cait was a fantastic host and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was special. We are so grateful!

Really beautiful spot against the woods and a marsh, you can hear peepers at night and watch the sunset/rise from the porch

check in was a little sketchy as first because the storm door was locked and we could not get to the electronic lock on the door to get inside but our host was responsive and arrived withing 15-20 minutes to help us get inside. No issues after that.

What a beautiful apartment nestled in the woods of Maine. Still close to the ocean and downtown Freeport. I was there in winter and it snowed. That made me appreciate the cozy comforter.

We loved every minute we spent in this beautiful cabin. The views were stunning and the cabin was cozy. It's a truly delightful spot.

Extremely nice BnB for staying in the area with a relatively cheap budget for lodging. Only an hour and a half away from Bar Harbor/Acadia, 30 minutes from Camden, and multiple other cuter small towns around the area with plenty to do, hike, bike, etc. I loved that they gave recommendations of their own favorite places around the area! Very detailed check-in, check-out, and directions which were greatly appreciated! Overall, our stay here was a 10/10 (except when we accidentally broke something - but they were super understanding❤️) and we would love to stay here again!

Clean convenient one bedroom with a terrific view. Brand new kitchen and brand new appliances throughout, including a washer and dryer. The deepwater dock got daily use for kayaking, sitting, sunning, and dog swimming. The neighborhood is quiet and friendly near grocery shopping, a drug store, the Maine Coastal Botanical Gardens, and downtown Boothbay. Great walking and hiking in the many nearby nature preserves, and on Ocean Point. A lovely stay in a beautiful place. Thanks Nancy!

Brittney's place was spectacular. It's out on a quiet island just outside of Boothbay Harbor. Such a relaxing area. We were attending a wedding at the Newagen Inn, so this is a perfect location for that. The coastal decoration is perfect and very welcoming. Everything we needed (and more!) were at the house - towels, a fully stocked kitchen, lots of seating. One good thing to know is there is another dwelling directly in front of the property, which I hadn't been aware of before, but was not bothersome. You can still feel like you are on your own when in the house, though. I would definitely rent here again!

The wildflower garden is beautiful right outside the window, and the cottage has been cared for well, decorated lovingly, and cleaned thoroughly. The location was convenient for us. Bruce was helpful and responsive. We were happy that this cottage was available.

A beautiful, clean and cozy apartment in a lovely wooded area of Camden! Many thoughtful touches and accommodations throughout. The property itself is well -kept, and the apartment windows look out onto amazing views of trees, ferns and leafy shrubs. A small table with two chairs on the outside boardwalk is a great place to take it all in, with a cup of tea! The bed was very comfortable, and the laundry area was a huge plus! Perfect for my one-night stay. Highly recommended.

We had a great stay at the Barn'acle! Julia's home is located just a short walk from many great restaurants, cafes, and shops, as well as a quick drive from Wolfe's Neck Woods State Park and several other attractions. The space has recently been renovated and was very clean. We would love to stay there again next time we're in Freeport.
