About this property

Gorgeous Oceanfront On A Private Lane

The house offers an open living plan on the first floor. The light filled living area features two-story windows. There will be room for the whole family to sit in front of the fire, play board games, and gather around the dining table. There are doors to the deck from the living area, where there are chairs and table awaiting you for an al fresco meal. The dining table seats eight.
The kitchen is fully equipped for every chef with two pantries and an electric stove. Another small deck (with a grill) adjoins the kitchen. A half bath and laundry room with stacked washer and dryer are on this floor. The master bedroom suite with new king-sized bed, two large closets, television with DVD player, and full bath adjoin the living area, and has a spectacular view of the ocean.
The second floor features a loggia overlooking the living room. There are three additional bedrooms on this level, each with large closets, and two full baths. Two of the bedrooms feature queen-sized beds, one with a view of the ocean. There is also a bedroom with two twin beds and view of the ocean.
All linens are provided.
Twin Chimneys offers it all- a romantic spot for two, a great family vacation, or a quiet getaway from your busy schedule.

Midwest visitors

Property was wonderful and just as advertised. We enjoyed sitting on the deck and looking at the wonderful view of the bay. The town of Blue Hill is close and offers restaurants, shopping and grocery that are very good. When we had a problem with one of the TV's the property manager was easy to reach and took care of it promptly. Karen was easy to reach by email when we had questions and responded promptly. Twin Chimneys is a "home run" that I hope we can visit again.

Serene and picturesque location

The house is spacious, tidy and has lots of windows to take in the view. The kitchen is very well stocked with crockery/utensils. We had some issues with cooking on the stove as it doesn't have the best vent but it wasn't a major issue in the end as we used the outside grill which works just fine.We loved the deck with its view of the bay and the house's location was excellent with good local dining options, groceries, kayaking, and a picturesque swimming cove we learned about from friendly locals. Karen and the caretaker were very helpful and attentive to our needs. We would stay there again.

Great family vacation house!

Twin Chimneys is ideally located on a private road with a beautiful yard and slope to the sea/bay. Blue Hill is nearby for shopping with local trails and beaches just a short drive too. We found local strawberry picking and wild blueberries to pick as well. The house wanted for nothing as far as supplies. I really appreciated the garbage pick-up; an amenity many country homes do not offer. There were toys for the kids on the rainy day and 2 great outdoor decks. Karen was immediately accessible for my one question. Location and comfort make Twin Chimneys a wonderful place to stay!

Gorgeous Views, Gorgeous House

Our extended family traveled from Richmond, VA, Washington DC, and Atlanta, GA to visit Maine for the first time for all of us. We all agreed we couldn't have chosen a more perfect spot! The views were always beautiful and ever changing- the whites of the misty night, the pale blues of the early morning, the vibrant blues of the sunny daytime, and the pinks and grays of the gorgeous sunset. The house was sunny and spacious complete with a well-stocked kitchen, games galore, and a linen closet to die for. Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park are less than an hour away to the north and the picturesque towns of Belfast and Castine are close to the south. Blue Hill is a quaint Maine town with a huge grocery store, gift shops, galleries and of course a lobster shack. If we go to Maine again, Twin Chimneys will be the place we'll stay!

Family Holiday in Blue Hill

Every review described our own experience! This is a wonderful house: views from the expansive windows; perfect space for a younger family with 3 children and their grandparents. It is private and quiet but accessible to hiking trails and a beach. Minutes from a supermarket .All made for a super Maine vacation.

Wonderful Experience

Twin Chimneys was just as the pictures depict, maybe even better. We felt at home here and all of us said, if we were to have a home in Maine, this would be it! We could have enjoyed days just relaxing at the house, never leaving but this was our first time in the area and we were only staying 5 days so we had planned things to do each day. Next time, we hope to stay longer and have some days just at the house. Karen was responsive and helpful with all our needs. Only disappointment was not being able to make a fire due to flue issue. Highly recommend this home.

Best vacation house

The house had a perfect location. The views were incredible and the sail boats from KYC going by daily just added to the view. The house had everything you might need and the grounds were very well kept. Looking toward to next year.

Blue Hill

Twin Chimney was amazing. It was just what we needed during this difficult time of Covid. The home exceeded our expectations. The location was remote quiet and private. We enjoyed watching the Eagles frolic over the bay and see the Lobster fisherman check there traps. We would love to return next year!

WOW to Blue Hill, Maine!

Our stay at your beautiful seaside home was outstanding! The gravel drive to the home was like driving into a national park - with stately white pines, maples in color, and forest floor carpeted in green moss and strewn with agent boulders. The absolutely beautiful home was clean, welcoming, with huge seaside windows, and a well-equipped kitchen, and was a perfect lay-out for 3 couples. The grounds was clean and manicured and quiet - hardly a glimpse of neighboring properties. All 6 of us had a wonderful time and would highly recommend this VRBO home. We would love to visit again! Thank you for sharing the Maine experience with us Minnesotans!

Twin Chimneys provided the perfect home away from home for our trip this year in Blue Hill.

Twin Chimneys met all of our expectations and provided the perfect setting with its wooded location and beautiful shoreline at the foot of the lawn. The interior is very well maintained and perfect for entertaining our guests.

Two Chimneys Stay for Three Couples

Three couples shared the house for a week. We could not have chosen a more perfect house and location for our visit to Maine. The house and setting were not only as described on the website but more beautiful in person. The house was very clean, large and comfortable for all of us. It was fully stocked with everything we could possibly need. The setting was beautiful. Close to the waterfront, wooded and secluded but still a close drive to town. We found a variety of good restaurants in town and nearby. The location in Blue Hill allowed for day trips in every direction from Acadia and Bar Harbor to Stonington, Bucksport and beyond. Our VRBO agent Karen was immediately available by phone and in person when we had a question. She provided information on restaurants and attractions in the area. We all felt we picked the perfect place and would highly recommend Twin Chimneys.

Review of Twin Chimneys from Canada

This was the second time I've rented from VRBO. The first was a remodelled stone farmhouse called "La Jaubert" near Viens France. That made our vacation in Provence an experience that I still remember. We knew when we pulled into the circular drive at Twin Chimneys and entered the front door into the bright central room with cathedral ceiling and multiple windows looking out on a view of Blue Hill Bay framed by tall pines and a lawn reaching down to the bay that we had found a similar unique place. The house was obviously professionally decorated and had an aura of understated elegance. It is obvious that the owners have taken steps to ensure that all necessities of housekeeping were provided. There was a fully stocked linen closet, a china and glassware closet, and a laundry room with all manner of cleaning agents. We found it easy to prepare dinners for our group of eight in the modern kitchen with adjoining barbecue deck on several days, and otherwise made a day trip to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbour. Management is in nearby Blue Hill, which makes it convenient to deal with any problems, but we did not have any. The grand kids were occupied on the one rainy day with the stock of children's games provided in the common room. They no time at all to discover a “Narnia-like” secret passage to a small room full of children-sized furniture at the back of what was my bedroom closet, much to my chagrin. This must be a holdover from former owners of the house In total, we had a wonderful time and would recommend Twin Chimneys to anyone.
