It has been totally renovated while keeping its charm, and has amazing water views from every room. The driveway is large enough for a boat.

You can access the beach at either side of the property via lit stairs. There’s a rocky beach with a small over-the-water (high-tide) deck. There are foldable sun loungers, beach towels, and 4 adult & 3 youth kayaks-picture yourself kayaking down the beautiful St Croix with eagles soaring overhead. You may also take the kayaks to nearby lakes.
There is a dual pallet/gas grill, a family table at the water’s edge, and several seating areas scattered throughout the property for you to relax & enjoy the magnificent views. There are also several hammocks, a swing bench, a floating deck with wooden sun loungers, and a fire pit with free firewood. At night the trees are bathed in blue light & there are solar lights throughout the property-you’ll feel like you’re at a resort.
Calais is your quintessential small American town with shops, restaurants and bars dotting Main St. It sits on the St. Croix River with 3 border crossings into Canada. There’s a movie theater, public library, boat launch, golf course, a waterfront walkway, and concerts are held during the summer at the riverfront park.
The St. Croix is saltwater and tidal, flowing into the Bay of Fundy which has the highest tides, and is full of freshwater and saltwater marine life.
RiverHouse is just 2 mins from the St Croix Country Club ⛳️, 5 mins from downtown, hiking trails, boat launch, & the Canadian border, 30 minutes from Eastport, 50 minutes from Lubec and Campobello Island (Roosevelt’s summer home) and 2 hours from Bar Harbor, Bangor and from Aroostook County. it is perfectly located for exploring unspoiled Downeast Maine, “The County” and Canada.

Summary: We were 5 of us who spent two night's at this property. We're all unanimous that it's a good place to stay. There's everything you will need in a home and they are clean accessible, safe, spacious. We're already thinking of revisiting the property the next time we go that way.

Summary: We loved the River House! Such a cozy vibe & we saw so many lastbugs around the property. Gorgeous wild flowers are a vision & watching the tide on the river flow in & out from every window in the farmhouse. The host. Gabriella was available for every question in minutes. Thank you so much!!

Summary: House was lovely, very clean and thoughtfully stocked; even fresh flowers in several of the rooms. Beds were comfortable and set up for cold weather as we were there in December. Our host, Gabriela, was highly responsive and welcoming. And the views of the water were beautiful, highly recommend.

Summary: Our stay was nothing short of perfection, everyone had enough space to spread out, yet there were plenty of cozy spots to gather together! The sunrises were absolutely beautiful and we loved enjoying them with the electric fireplace and a cup of coffee on the enclosed porch area. The kitchen had everything we needed. The home in general surpassed our expectations and we had an incredible time, the host was a pleasure to deal with and replied immediately, she was so very friendly. Plan to come back in the near future!

Summary: We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Gabriela’s riverfront home. The view from the sunporch and kitchen cannot be beat! We loved the multitude of seating options both indoors and out, the electric fireplaces, and comfortable beds. We did notice some areas of the home (namely the kitchen floor) had not been swept before our arrival, but that was simple to take care of ourselves. We also did not realize the proximity to a major road based on the photos, but didn’t notice the road noise much. Overall we were pleased with the space and location!

Summary: The home is beautiful. It is old, but the owner has made some cool improvements to it. Like a comfortable room to watch tv with a good soundtrack. The best room in the house overlooks the river and was the room we would be in during the day

Summary: We were excited to rent this property for a family trip. And while there are some nice features - a nice enclosed porch with a pretty view of the river especially at high tide, a fire pit and hammocks outside and beautiful hiking areas within driving distance, our visit was marred by a number of problems. When we arrived we discovered that the place was across the street from a large car dealership that keeps its lights on all night, and worse, had not been well cleaned (e.g. dirty floors, trash and a dirty sock under the couch cushions and couch, a carton of empty egg shells and other food remnants from a prior visitor in the fridge, and a strong cat pee smell in the only full bathroom.) While the host refunded the cleaning fee, the trouble didn't stop there. We soon discovered that the house had an active mouse population that brazenly scurried around the kitchen and got into our food forcing us to keep all edibles in the fridge. We have photos of all of the details mentioned above including the mice. One morning my sister woke to a squirrel on her bed frame. We are not fussy people but this was just too much. To our surprise, when we raised the concerns about rodents with Gabriela she did not respond or offer any discount or assistance despite repeated requests. In the end it left us disappointed both in the house and in the host.

Summary: Very quaint house, plenty of room, beautiful view of the St Croix River, lots of outdoor seating to enjoy the view. Kayaks to enjoy the water, close to town. Everything we needed for a great stay.
Andrew G. Jul 10, 2024 07:16:01 PM
Summary: Great location as a base, close to town but private and in a beautiful spot. Watching the estuary ebb and flow while eagles soared over head. House was spacious and very well equipped. Had everything we needed and more. Highly recommended.
Angie M. Nov 21, 2023 10:07:32 PM
Summary: Can’t say enough good things about this house. It was perfect. Every detail was thought through from the abundance of cozy blankets to the cute fireplace heaters in every room. The house was super clean and just perfect. We only had two adults staying a few nights for work travel (pretending it was a girls week lol) but I could see it comfortably fitting lots of people as there was so much space! I wish it was warmer out so I could have taken advantage of the outside spaces. Hope I get to come back!
