Cozy Riverside Studio in Kennebec

We enjoyed our stay at the riverside studio while we attended a family wedding. The studio was comfortable and well appointed. Our check-in and check-out was very easy and the owners made sure we had all directions prior to arrival. The bed was comfortable. Overall, the rental was just what we needed for the weekend. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Sound of Silence

We wanted a place on the water, out of the way, quiet and relaxing to celebrate our 30th Anniversary.It is absolutelely beautiful and tranquill listening to the river flow and the birds sing. My husband enjoyed fishing right there. Places to eat close by, very comfortable, relaxing and peaceful. Perfect if that is what you are looking for. Would love to go back again.

You didn’t have to leave to find something to do with the river being at your backdoor. This was by far one of the best places my family and I have stayed over 10 years of vacations. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Serene comfort on the Kennebec River

This apt is one of the most well-equipped we have stayed in and we felt welcome from the moment we arrived. Although communication provided excellent directions, it was after dark and I appreciated seeing my name on a chalkboard outside the entry door over a window box full of gorgeous flowers to confirm we were in the right place. The king bed was very comfortable! The twin was a bit too firm but that’s a preference. The couch was perfect to curl up on and there was a basket of throw blankets s well. Window AC cooled the place easily on the hot summer days we were there. Didn’t use the gas fireplace but can picture how cozy it would be. Many games and books for adults and kids and a smart tv with Netflix, etc. The kitchen wasn’t missing anything having even spices, oil, coffee, sugar and dried creamer. Loved the linens, including quality towels in the bathroom. Did one load of laundry - convenient! Best part was the quiet, beautiful setting in the woods right on the river. Although kayaks, a canoe, and swimming were all available we unfortunately couldn’t take advantage because my daughter ended up sick during our short stay but what a gorgeous spot! Excellent explicit info on the river’s current, etc provided if we had been able to. Loved being greeted by the adorable chickens every day. Hope we can come back some day to stay more than two nights and fully enjoy this special spot. Kim was incredibly helpful with suggestions and accommodating a late check out.

Amazing vacation! Mike and Kim have a beautiful property along the Kennebec River and are fabulous hosts. We had an amazing time and our daughter loved fishing and kayaking. She caught 3 small mouth bass! The river is gorgeous and the apartment is cozy and clean with all you need to have a great vacation. I highly recommend staying at this property.

Magical

Mike and Kim’s apartment is such a magical place. Apt is very clean and spacious. Beds are very comfortable. AC cools entire place (although we didn’t really need it). Lots of games and books available. Well equipped kitchen. The best was just being on the river though. Kayaking, canoeing, and swimming were all amazing. You feel isolated but it made me feel safe being a few feet from their home. Mike was very helpful! We used this as a base for rafting and hiking in the area and it was perfect!!!

Beautiful hidden gem

We loved this place! Wish we had booked for a few more days so we could explore the area more. The location is serene by the Kennebec river. The studio apt. is really spacious, although a slightly larger shower stall would have been more comfortable. It was surprisingly tiny without a lot of places to put supplies. The kitchen is spacious and well stocked. I gave communication with manager only 3 stars because we could not find the driveway and did not get a timely reply from him. It was frustrating to know we were close but the road sign name was too low to be seen from the road and the entrance to driveway was overgrown so that it did not look like an opening to drive through. In addition there was a road crew doing maintenance on the roadway. For clarification, instead of saying across from the 'blinking moose sign' perhaps call it a flashing moose crossing sign. I expected the moose to be flashing but it was not.

The location was exactly as described in the description. Very clean and comfortable. The bed was super comfortable. This was a weekend mom-cation get away for just me. It was quiet but beautiful. Walk to the river was easy and chairs and a little table are provided. Apartment had everything you could want as well as anything you may have forgotten to pack.

Great location and GREAT OWNERS. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The room was perfect. Everything from the free range chickens that greeted us to all the available amenities and river view were perfect. I must admit that we had an issue of our own making, and the owners were so helpful in their response. They kept our vacation from having a negative turn. I can't thank them enough. We would definitely stay here again.
