Reviews
Beautiful stay in Maine
We stayed in Brooklin for one week and had a great time. This rental is the best I have ever stayed in. The kitchen has every pot and pan and utensil you would need to prepare meals. The game room made my 3 yr old grandson smile real big when he walked into it. So much to do.! All the rooms and beds were clean and comfortable. So many different outdoor activities and places to sit and enjoy. The yard was well kept and beautiful. Lots if places to enjoy the sunrise and the sunset. Definitely a place to return to. Thanks for making our vacation stress free and easy. Thanks, The Kelleys
We will be back!
Our entire family was delighted with our stay at Puffin Rock! There were eight of us ranging in age from 77 to 8. We loved the ocean view, swimming, kayaking (stable ones of various sizes to fit everyone-even the 8yo), and paddle boarding (also good quality and stable). We also loved eating on the deck at the spacious table and finding spots to relax, both inside of the house as well as on the grounds. We each had our favorite places on the hillside overlooking the water for morning coffee. Inside was very comfortable and well appointed, with a well equipped kitchen. The kids loved the game room and the DVD choices. There was a great collection of books by local authors. We also enjoyed the spacious living room, the comfy sitting area looking out over the water, and the breakfast nook also looking out to the water. This was our first time to Brooklin, and we loved the area. A favorite outing was walking to Harriman Point (Eastern Beach) for a swim and picnic. We will be back!
Three Generations Making Memories
Grandparents, adult children, and grandchildren ages 7 and 9 (7 in all) had plenty to do right here at Puffin Rock all week. All ages kayaked and even swam at low and high tides, explored for crabs and hermit crabs, harvested a few clams and mussels. The art room was generously full of all sorts of supplies and games and the kitchen was full of everything we needed (and more). It was a heat wave, even up here, but the fans kept us cool and the cove kept us busy. We roasted hotdogs and smores in the firepit and enjoyed the wonderful deck and sitting areas around the property. We didn't venture far, just for a lobster at nearby Dock and Dine, Tinder hearth for Pizza and Brooklin for the candy and general store. Every day was a delight. There was plenty of room for adults and kids to spread out in the house and throughout the property. So well supplied and lived in, this home really is made for making memories.
The house worked perfectly for our trip with young children.
A nice house in a peaceful neighborhood. It worked perfectly for our trip with young children.
Great place to stay...
Great place to stay; everyone agreed that this was the best stocked house they had stayed in. Anything you could think of was available and ready to use. Beautiful views, and a quiet space to get away and disconnect. Easy access to Acadia, a reasonable drive away.
The view was breathtaking & the peacefulness around the house was exactly what we needed...
Puffin Rock was a great place for my family & my sisters family to stay. There were nine of us who stayed there….4 adults & then our children ranging from 19 years old to 15 years old. The four full baths were a blessing & the 5 bedrooms with comfortable beds was a bonus. There was plenty of towels, wash cloths, kitchen appliances & dishes. The view was breathtaking & the peacefulness around the house was exactly what we needed. The boys thoroughly enjoyed the canoe & kayaks & the adults enjoyed sitting around the camp fire. We would also go out at night & gaze at the millions of stars in the sky. We ventured into Acadia & Bar Harbor while we were there. It took us right at an hour to reach our destinations in Acadia, but we knew that going in so we weren’t surprised by it. Acadia has the most beautiful scenery around & everyone we met was super friendly. I encourage everyone to go there… I would highly recommend this quaint place to anyone. We were not ready to leave.
I walked the beach area all but one morning; it was so peaceful...
My family and friends all enjoyed our stay at Puffin Rock! The house had ample space, was very clean with plenty of supplies, and the access to the water/beach was amazing! I walked the beach area all but one morning; it was so peaceful. Plenty of things were provided to occupy the kids when the weather was bad. It is a bit of a drive to Acadia, but not unbearable, and after the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor it was nice to come back to quiet. The pace of life felt so much slower in Maine, and we thoroughly enjoyed it! Would come back in a heartbeat!
Puffin Rock checked all of our boxes for a fantastic 2-week family vacation...
Puffin Rock checked all of our boxes for a fantastic 2-week family vacation with extended family and local relatives in nearby Brooklin. The kayaks and SUP’s, expansive beach access, fire pit, deck and overlook seating near the beach provided so many ways to enjoy the woods and coastline. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking in, and the house was roomy enough for everyone to feel comfortable. The proximity to Brooklin, with its nice market, a few good restaurants, a great library, the Wooden Boat School, and plenty of hiking trails just out of town meant there was something for everyone to enjoy. We look forward to another visit!
Our group of 6 Maine artists had a wonderful time staying in Puffin Rock.
Our group of 6 Maine artists had a wonderful time staying in Puffin Rock. So many beautiful places to paint in and around Brooklin. Well equipped kitchen with a gas stove is a real plus.
Puffin House is beautiful and the scenery is breathtaking!
We loved our stay. Puffin House is beautiful and the scenery is breathtaking. Loved sitting outdoors watching the bay. The house is very roomy and nicely decorated. We visited nearby Blue Hill for some shopping and to eat at two local restaurants. Watching the orange moon come up and “cue the coyotes!!” was quite an experience. We wished we’d had longer time to stay. Definitely check this out for your next Maine coast get away.
