Perfect Break From Insanity

This was such a good stay. My nine year old and I came up to Maine for a guy’s fishing trip. We caught a ton of fish and had a great time and enjoyed some down time out of the sun in wonderfully cool twin ponds. We got some good hiking and great miniature golf in as well. Sunset every night provided some fun fishing right at twin ponds. And Oscar was the perfect host! Oh, Brian and Luana were really nice and welcoming too! Seriously looking forward to the next trip to Twin Ponds.

The accommodations at Twin Ponds were great. We were very comfortable and felt very much at home. Unfortunately, it rained most of the time, so we didn't get to enjoy the beautiful grounds. The hosts were very friendly and made sure we had everything that we needed. Oscar was very friendly too! The location was very convenient to our relatives and places we wanted to visit. We'd definitely return in the future!

Rental exactly as represented in listing. Unit was private, homey and cozy in a serenely lush setting with birds at the feeder visible while sitting in bed. Luana obviously put a lot of thought into providing the necessities that may be needed during a stay. Beds were comfy.Location had easy access to the more major roads to local attractions.Brian and Luana are kind and gracious hosts. Our plane was early and we were able to check in early. Luana was there to greet us and provide a brief orientation. Brian texted suggestions of places to go. If encountered on the grounds, they were up for a chat. Interesting people clearly enjoying what they do.Adding a fun note was Oscar, their supremely affable golden retriever, calmly friendly, enjoying some attention then on his way to enjoy his doggie paradise.

Lovely Cottage Suite in Maine

Twin Ponds is a lovely location on a beautiful pond setting. Lovely landscaping and plantings with a walking path around the pond. We totally enjoyed our stay here. The suite is like a small cottage, wonderfully appointed and immaculate. Everything you could possibly need including freshly ground delicious coffee. A well- equipped and charming suite. This was a very special stay for us and hope to return one day. Brian and Luana are such gracious and friendly hosts. Thank you so much Brian and Luana—it was so nice to meet you and thank you on my behalf and my family!

WE picked the time (early October) to see the foliage and visit a friend. We spent several days seeing the sights: maritime museum, botanical gardens, etc. and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The Smiths were excellent hosts and were very knowledgeable about the surrounding area.

Twin Ponds Is A Vacationers Dream

Brian & Luana are the finest people and wonderful hosts, they went out of their way to ensure we had an enjoyable stay at Twin Ponds. Also... Oscar is the best ambassador one could expect to start your vacation and your day off with a smile. The property is scenic offering hints of Maine wildlife, birds and as much fresh air as one can take in. While you have the feeling of being removed from the hustle and bustle of the world, Twin Ponds is conveniently located to all the amenities you need on vacation. The apartment itself is well laid out. Brian & Luana have made sure there are all the items a short or long stay needs on hand, along with some added touches that make it special. Having visited Maine for over 30 years, this property is perfect for seeing the sights, or just getting away for a relaxing holiday. We highly recommend you enjoy the exemplary hospitality Brian, Luana & Oscar offer at Twin Ponds.

Quaint location with great hosts!

We had a wonderful week-long stay with our hosts in Bowdoinham. Our suite was a converted office space in their house and all of the amenities were there for us (kitchen, bathroom, living room, etc.). The place was immaculate and well supplied with linens and lots of little things to make us feel right at home. We had our own dedicated parking spot and our hosts were readily available if we needed something or to ask a question. Highly recommend!!!

Charming countryside vacation suite with immediate access to major Maine highway

Twin Ponds' hosts have created a lovely open concept suite that is delightfully decorated and well-appointed for an extended stay. Cook and eat-in, or jump in your car and travel through Maine's MidCoast towns and Islands. Twin Ponds in Bowdoinham is a restful space to relax after a busy day of exploring. I spent several of my days there doing nothing more than enjoying the fabulous sunshine that streamed into the suite while drawing and painting. It was a great treat. The hosts are very thoughtful and kind, and have helpful tips for their guests.
