Liked: Location
Ina was a wonderful hostess. The home had a very lovely kitchen with anything you could want. The location was very convenient to downtown Castine. Remember your laptop if you want to watch a movie or such- no television but lots and lots of books! The view and back yard area were great!

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
What a wonderful home. We feel really lucky to have found Ina‘s rental. It was our first visit to Castine, and it was the perfect introduction. We loved being on a historical property and all the beautiful furnishing and touches throughout, and the amazing collection of books. Kind of wish we had more time to just hang around the house! Beautiful kitchen. Comfortable beds. Everything clean and tidy. We had everything we needed. Highly recommended.
