This is our second time staying at View Point. Our favorite feature of the property is the location and proximity to the water. We like to do a lot of hiking in that area and have gotten to love that part of the coast. Is it the most modern? No, but that's ok. It does the job and we feel comfortable there. New sheets/pillow replacements would be great additions.

They were terrific as always!

This was honestly the best property we have ever stayed at in our ten years using OTW! The outdoor balcony on the second floor and beach/deck were amazing! The appliances were great and the overall size of the house allowed me to have privacy to work on the occasions I needed to while my wife and friends could enjoy themselves. Just a great place to stay, if it ever came up for sale we would be interested.

I'm a big fan! Very professional, thorough, efficient... Any issue that we've ever had was solved so quickly (not that we've had a lot). Nice array of properties, some more updated than others.

We stayed in Millbridge - the most north on the coast that we've ever stayed. Loved it. Will definitely go back. Chose this property because of its location (not touristy, water view, new location). Our favorite feature of the property was the water view.

Peaceful! Loved the beach access and seclusion, but also only 1 hour to Bar Harbor. The home was welcoming, amazing views, lots of room and dog friendly too!
