Recent Penobscot Bay guest reviews

WOW, Tides to Pines made sure our stay was the best experience it could be. We originally arrived at our AIRBNB at 7:30 pm with 6 children from ages 3 to 12, and it had not been cleaned. Tide to Pines quicky sent us a link to another home, ready for occupancy immediately. This turned out to be an amazing home and closer to family members we were visiting. They continued to follow-up during our stay. The experience was so beyond our expectations we are looking into renting that same home next year. I don't think you could find a better company than Tides to Pines to make sure your stay is amazing.

I stayed for a month and loved the thoughtful touches including the fireplace in the sun room, new appliances, well stocked kitchen, AC/heating, ample deck space and a dead end road for me and my doggo to explore each day.

My son and I spent his spring break there, and it was a lovely house. Very warm and comfortable. Terrific view of the ocean. Impeccable kitchen and stove. We ate most of our meals there, and it had everything you would need to cook with. The beds were extremely comfortable. The laundry room made the stay extra comfortable, as the location does not have the most amenities. I would happily rent the place again. Perfect Maine Coast cottage. Highly recommended.
