Totally loved it!
We were looking for kayak-friendly owners and property, and scored on both! Sweet spot in a protected cove, access to other coves, islands and river nearby, and open ocean 3 miles south. Easy launching from their dock and a dedicated float that allows easy in and out. Shannon and Gil are great hosts; they arranged lobster from son’s catch one day and cooked it for us! Great house with a porch, well-appointed kitchen cozy bedroom and a loft with a view. Plus several preserves for hiking and local food nearby. We’ll be back!

Great hosts, awesome view and good location
Gil and Sharon were great. They were very accommodating and accessible. Gil,a fifth generation lobsterman can fill you in on all that. He also builds lobster boats. Friendship is convenient to places in midcoast Maine such as Rockland, Rockport and Camden.

Friendly stay in Friendship, Maine
Sharon and Gil are "finest kind," the type of hospitable folks you would expect to find in the great state of Maine. They built this unit themselves so there is a lot of love, care and quality that went into it. All the amenities you could want. You have a beautiful view of the water and sea-going birds, in a very quiet location, far from any tourist traffic but still well situated for heading out to some of the prime attractions along the Maine coast. There are several nature preserves close by for bird-watching, hiking or jogging. A great value...you'll be happy and comfortable here.

A slice of Heaven on Earth!
What an amazing time we had in Maine! The location of their beautiful place was perfect, cozy and oh so peaceful and quiet! The house had everything we needed and Gil & Sharon were quick to respond with any questions/needs we had! They are amazing! The views from the deck are beautiful! The bed was comfortable and there wasn't a thing we wished we'd had while we were there! Thank you for sharing your little piece of paradise with us! We loved every minute of our trip and it will go down as one of the best vacations we've ever taken!

Fabulous in Maine
Gil & Sharon Simmons are awesome hosts. They are good communicators and have been highly accommodating. Gave us a bunch of privacy. Gil and the generations after him are lobster fisherpeople. I strongly recommend guests use Jameson Point Lobster, very good price and they will steam them for you to take home or whatever. Great place! Very peaceful location. Great to see the tide action. Pretty boats in a little harbor! Just right for 2 adults - great TV - the wifi internet was pretty weak and sporadic. Generally good cell coverage in the area. Hate to say it as I love this hidden gem - want it just for me. Absolutely fantastic.

perfect location for reaching local activities
It was a lovely space with a great view - the hosts were extremely gracious and helpful with recommendations on things to do - and the location was a convenient home base. The local lobsters were amazing! We had a great stay in Friendship 😊
