Denise W. Jul 27, 2024 08:51:50 PM

Summary: It was uncomfortably hot, too hot to sleep at night and there was a damp feel throughout the entire house. We noticed a musty smell and several areas of mold on drywall. Drywall tape was hanging loose and doors not closing properly, just too much dampness to be comfortable.

Barbara W. Aug 8, 2021 11:00:21 AM

Summary: Good

Kathy V. Jul 5, 2021 11:00:26 AM

Summary: The rocky shoreline and private tidepools were amazing. The large kitchen bar was great for meals and family games. The castle was quirky and spectacular and the long house that is under construction makes us want to come back! We had a great time in Maine.

Christi P. Nov 8, 2019 01:13:14 PM

Summary: The owners put so much work into every detail of this place! Quality, charm, awesome wood and stone work! Perfect isolated location, yet not too far to get to civilization, Acadia, and our favorite-Schoodic point. The private little beach is an amazing spot to sit and admire the mighty ocean and think , read or write. Everything was so clean and well stocked, the owner was quick to respond to any questions. If not for the incredible beauty of Maine, we could’ve spent the entire time in this beautiful place!

Summary: Dragonwood Castle was an absolute treat. The sounds, smells, sights and feel of this home were magical!

Christophe C. Sep 3, 2019 11:43:26 AM

Summary: Staying in Dragonwood is like living inside a piece of folk art. It's fanciful, weird, and a genuine delight. But if you are seeking a pristine home, sanitized, climate-controlled, and empty of evidence of human habitation, this is not the place for you. The overall feel of the place is like visiting an artistic, eccentric, but elderly aunt whose house is chock full of a lifetime's oddities and acquisitions. When she serves you tea and cake, you know the plate is likely to be a bit smudged, the cake dried at the edges, maybe nibbled by mice. But her company is so fascinating you'll overlook all this, and keep from turning your head at the furtive scurryings at the baseboard you see out of the corner of your eye. Dragonwood is just such a trade. Sitting in the lower living room with three-story tall windows, you may see three species of butterfly at once on a thistle plant in the foreground, and the surf and ledges of the Atlantic in the background, but you will also smell the dank notes of a typical New England stone basement, a space that, inexplicably, communicates with the living room though a bank of screens in walls. The ground-floor shower is built of huge, rough hewn stone blocks and you will have the feeling, while bathing, of living inside a medieval story. The water, fully drinkable, is nevertheless so laden with iron that it has a tang of blood to it, and will stain your clothes, particularly the whites. Best to take your laundry home with you. There are elaborate dioramas built into the windows, and hand-carved hinges on the cabinets, and a turret master bedroom where you can hear the bell buoy and the waves all night. There is also, on damp days, a dim smell of dog in the entryway. The back porch is built around a maple dripping in lichen; you will feel like you're in a tree house when you sit at the picnic table out there. The property includes a segment of spectacular rocky coastline, accessible by a short grassy path. The house has its quirks and peculiarities, maybe more than others of its age, even given the fact that it's a castle. But, like any person or place or house worth knowing, there is much one will tolerate or overlook for a richness of experience unparalleled by any other house we've ever rented. We would be remiss not to mention our immense gratitude for the responsive owner Amélie, who gave excellent suggestions and made a special effort (despite being far away at the time) to rectify a thorny issue.

Summary: We are grateful for our wonderful week-long stay in the whimsical Dragonwood Castle. Even with our party of six adults, the house had ample living and sleeping space. In addition to meeting all of our basic needs, the house's well-thought-out design, beautiful view, and its abundance of intricate, hand-crafted details truly set it apart from other rentals we have stayed in. Furthermore, Dragonwood Castle is situated in the ideal location for visitors to Maine due to its close proximity to beautiful parts of Acadia National Park such as Schoodic Point, as well as uniquely Maine attractions such as U.S. Bells and the Pickled Wrinkle. We would happily stay here again!

Dirgha Aug 20, 2019 12:43:56 PM

Summary: We loved the uniqueness of the property and had a wonderful week in ME. We rode our bikes most mornings from the property around the Schoodic Peninsula and back - 16 miles. Absolutely lovely riding with a new view every day depending on the weather. As parents, we loved that there was WIFI but not really access to a TV. It's in a wooded area so stays cool enough during the day. We didn't realize there was a spiral stairs to access the upper floors but we were all capable of accommodating the stairs so not really a big deal - more of a surprise when we first arrived. The second floor is really one very large sleeping space and not two separate bedrooms so it's hard to call it a three bedroom but not sure how you'd advertise it any better in the general description - the kids navigated it just fine - again just another surprise. The master had lovely views to the morning sunrise and was spacious with a lovely breeze to sleep in! We really appreciated that linens and towels were included. The house overall could have been cleaner. The beach is not really a beach - it's more waterfront property. The well water was drinkable but we ended up buying water for the week. So for all these reasons, our overall rating was a 4. Great property!

Levi C. Jul 18, 2019 11:44:01 AM

Summary: This place is a wonder. Tons of room, incredible details in the castle - especially the windows! We could not have asked for more!

Anthony K. Jul 9, 2019 02:13:01 AM

Summary: The location was amazing, better than bar harbor if you want to get away from the crowds. Strongly recommend lunch on the warf in Corea and the Pickled Wrinkle. The only think keeping it from a five star in my opinion was the place screemed to have a fire pit, and there was none. Again my opinion, but really. No complaints. The host was awesome too.
