Property was very close to a wedding that we had in Sanford. Driveway is at an angle but has an awning that was perfect for our motorcycles and fit my truck and trailer perfectly.

We stayed at this home for a family gathering over the Labor Day weekend, and our experience was truly wonderful. From the start, Aimee, the host, was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was not only accommodating, but also kind, responsive, and very informative.The home itself, while older in style, beautifully combines country charm with warm, family-friendly comfort. It thoughtfully caters to all ages and needs—featuring everything from an adorable toddler cabin bed to a chair lift for family members with mobility challenges. The fenced front and back yards made it an excellent retreat for our four-legged companion, and the neighborhood was perfect for peaceful walks with the dog.The layout of the home is ideal for multigenerational families. The lower level provides a cozy and convenient space for families with children, while the upper level offers a quiet retreat for in-laws or older relatives. Additionally, its location is very convenient, with Sanford’s downtown and shopping just minutes away.Aimee, thank you again for being such a thoughtful and attentive host. You helped make our family weekend truly memorable, and we would gladly return in the future. Just one minor suggestion. Please add a few additional towels in the bathrooms.
