House vacation rentals in Penobscot County

Had a great stay at Carols! We loved meeting the horses and Carol’s sweet dog. The home was cozy and perfect for the snowy weekend we stayed. Would love to return!

This was our first time in Maine, definitely worth it! The host was amazing and replied as soon as the message was sent. The house was clean, plenty of entertainment and a lot of places from 5-10 minutes away. I would 100% recommend and be back.

The house was perfect for us. Very clean and organized. Great host always responded in a timely manner. Was only about a 30 to 40 minute drive to Acadia National Park & Bar harbor, depending on traffic it could take longer. If we ever make it back to Maine I would definitely stay at the Higgins Retreat again. Thanks again Richard & Tina.

Better than pictured and Christina was great! Will definitely stay again!

We loved our stay at Jason’s place! We had 10 total people staying for Labor Day weekend - 7 adults, 3 kids and a dog. We all had plenty of room, the house was gorgeous - especially the kitchen and living room! We used the pool, the lake (kayaks and canoes - lots of life jackets to choose from), the basketball court and were so thankful for the option to rent the pontoon boat! My son had a great time fishing. The neighborhood is very quiet. We also had fun checking out nearby antique shops one morning & going into Bangor one evening for dinner. We will be back!

A nice rustic, peaceful getaway for our crew at the end of a long day. We appreciated the space and the surrounding greenery of Maine!

The home was an oasis, lovely and welcoming. Communication with the hosts was amazing even when we were messaging them from the west coast so it was late for them. Thanks for a great stay!

Cozy cottage, conveniently located, "very Mainish" from the decor to the build. My Grankids especially enjoyed meeting the chickens and walking the property as well as playing in the snow! We will definitely return!

The house was an amazing location! We thoroughly enjoyed the sunrises & sunsets while grilling dinners in the evenings! The house was very clean and Robert was a great host. I mess him to ask if there was an axe on site. He responded that there wasn’t but that he would get firewood for us the next morning. It was so awesome to sit around the fire at night and hear the loons calling. It was very relaxing. We had to travel at least an hour to do the site seeing we wanted to do but we expected that. Overall was great and I’d recommend the house to others!!

I live nearby but had friends visiting from Germany and wanted them to have the "camp" experience. The house is beautiful and very comfortable. My friends loved it as well as being right on the lake. The place was exactly as described and we felt right at home. I'm hoping this place is available whenever we have friends visit because I would definitely book it again.

We had a great stay at Olivia’s place. This home is located in a very peaceful area! Lots of space for guest with multiple cars and the backyard was huge (it rained during our stay so we didn’t get to enjoy much of the backyard). The home is exactly as it’s described, plenty of room for a family with kiddos and some extras! She has a TON of children activities along with infant items such as a crib, rocker, highchair- I think I even spotted some diapers which is very thoughtful. As a fellow Airbnb host I often pick up on little tidbits that most guest wouldn’t, but not in this case. Olivia has been very thoughtful with decorating and amenities. I would highly recommend staying here!

Beautiful and cozy place. Had a great stay. Since we visited during Fall season, the place was peaceful and full of Fall colors. Acadia national park is nearby and has some great places to visit during leaf peeping time.

Ohhhh my goodness. What a hidden slice of heaven! Yes…there is a 5 mile trek down a bumpy dirt road, but don’t let that deter you, once you pull in the driveway…you’ll understand it was well worth it. The main house and two tiny houses were completely stocked. There wasn’t anything that wasn’t there. Everything was cleaned and well maintained and in great working order. There was plenty of space for our three families to spread out. If you’re looking for a peaceful get away…this is it. We would definitely look into this place again!!!!!!

Great host, would stay again.

We were a party of 6 people and had a wonderful stay at the Lakefront cabin in Dedham. We arrived on an evening of a clear sky, did some astro-photography. The dark skies with almost no light pollution was perfect for this. Fall colors were just at their peak in the region, so we would wake up to the most amazing views of the lake. The host provided kayaks with oars, a well-equipped kitchen along with a good collection of spices and seasoning ingredients. The house was also well-stocked with towels, and other daily use necessities. The property is also close to grocery and supplies, so we were able to conveniently obtain food during our stay. Well-maintained house, with good amenities and an excellent host. Thank you Paulina for facilitating a memorable Fall vacation for us.

Chris was very communicative from the beginning. Very peaceful and quiet place. Overall, our experience was amazing. We highly recommend Chris and his place, if you want to have great gateway.

My family had a great time staying here. Very quiet and private and warm during winter storms. Host was quick to plow the snow in the driveway. The ride into town is about 20 minutes and there's a lot of wildlife on the way. We found a lot of antiques at the stores and malls around town. The beds were the most comfortable beds I ever slept in. The sectional couch was very comfortable. We would definitely stay again.

I booked this winter stay for my husband's birthday weekend. I had hopes of us relaxing at a little getaway and adding some ice fishing for the guys. I could not have been more pleased, the guys walked out the downstairs door right onto the ice, the ladies were inside with the fireplace on doing crafts and simmering soups. The house was so clean, tidy and welcoming, just like I like my house to be for guests. We were all very comfortable and had plenty of room. You could easily come to Brian and Lois's home, with a small bag of clothes, personal items and food. You really need to think of nothing else, it's all there and more. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home

It's a great house with thoughtful touches like snacks, motion-sensitive lights under a kitchen cabinet for navigating at night, and windows blinds that automatically open slowly. The recliner built into the sofa is quite comfortable (I dozed off in it :-). The place is in a quiet neighborhood and conveniently located near the bike path, so I could walk to the university. I could also walk to the nearby grocery store. I would definitely stay here again.

I only have great things to say about our visit- the area was beautiful and peaceful while still close enough to grocery, restaurants, and activities. We felt at home right away with Ryan’s helpful recommendations and he was always available if we had questions or needed anything. We visited Acadia for a couple of days but other than that spent all our time enjoying the beautiful area by swimming, kayaking, fishing, and stargazing. The kitchen was well-equipped for us to cook and enjoy many meals and we were able to grill given the great weather we had. Easily the most attentive hosts I’ve had, thank you Ryan and Sharon for everything! We loved our stay and would definitely come back!

We were looking for a place to call home base for hunting camp. We have family in the area but wanted our own space and somewhere to host dinners at night. A great place. We would use again.

Marc's place was an excellent jumping off point for my group heading into Baxter State Park this winter. The house was clean, well equipped, and comfortable despite some chilly outdoor temps. I'd gladly stay again on another trip up to Millinocket/Baxter/Katahdin!
