Five-star Everything!
Beautiful house in a stunning setting. Not just a rental – it's the owner’s summer home. All quality, from the very bones of the well-built house to the bountiful fluffy towels and well-stocked spice drawer. Everything you need in the kitchen (and more!), bathroom for each bedroom (and an extra half), and extremely comfortable furniture and beds—all with great views. As lovely as the house is, the views are the most amazing thing here. We could never get enough of the views in three directions: water, islands, village, fog. (Yes, even the fog is fascinating here.) The hosts are easy to communicate with, gracious, and generous. We didn’t use the television—you do need an account or subscription for many of the options (and, probably, we're just not techie enough to understand how to use it). Wifi is excellent, but cell phones almost useless unless you make calls with the wifi. If you’ve never been to downeast Maine before, this might seem like a long drive; but trust us, it is worth it! And Starboard might seem “far” from the town of Machias, but it really isn’t. Trips to the grocery store or Dunkin were part of almost every day. Views along the way are always changing; enjoy the drive! Only two reasons this house might not be for you: 1. The spaces are most appropriate for 2 people or 2 couples. 2. Living spaces are upstairs, so if stairs are a challenge, this will be difficult for you. There's no place like Starboard; you'll never forget it!
