About this house rental
Debating between the comfort of a hotel and the thrill of more authentic accommodations? You’ll get the best of both with this desirable oceanfront home!
The Lighthouse Lookout sits atop 1.5 private acres located directly on the Atlantic Ocean, offering a lovely Maine oceanfront getaway. Aside from the main house there is a detached “Boathouse” for additional sleeping and recreation, and a 50-foot commercial grade pier and dock.
The main house has 4 bedrooms / 2.5 bath and is approximately 3,800 SQ FT. The boathouse has 2 bedrooms / 1 bath and is approximately 1,500 SQ FT. Bedrooms are lined with windows, offering views of passing lobster boats and schooners, changing tides with breathtaking sunsets. Everything you need for your stay is provided, including a fully equipped kitchen, luxury linens and towels, high-speed Wi-Fi, outdoor furniture and grill, cable, flat screen TV’s with Netflix built in for watching movies. The Lighthouse Lookout is setup to match the laid back relaxing vibe that Maine has to offer.
Rackliff Island is one of Maine’s most desirable Islands that’s car accessible. This house is the perfect home-away-from-home for an east coast vacation or family getaway. The private island combines tranquility and convenience at its finest. If you want to be steps from town but feel like your miles away, Lighthouse Lookout is your perfect vacation destination.
The lookout itself is located on a private road that’s great for walking, biking and jogging.
Conveniently located in the midcoast you are a day trip away from Acadia National Park or enjoying the history and cultural amenities of nearby towns. If you are planning on staying with us in August, Rockland’s annual Lobster Festival is a must! With great food and live music, it should be on every guests to do list.
A boater’s paradise if you have a boat...bring it along! There is a mooring in front of the house which will accommodate a 32-foot boat. Rackliff Island is a Boater’s paradise, with wonderful destinations close by!

10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2023
This house is amazing! We have been renting properties long before vrbo was in operation and this property is in the top 3. Is it perfect, no. But, it's darn close. Chris is wonderful to deal with. He has made his house a home away from home. Televisions are an issue but streaming worked in the living room and in the boat house (with a TV we brought). Very well stocked with every dish and pan you could need. Do not let the poor reviews deter you from staying at this lovely house because you will be missing out on a great time. Thank you, Chris

The access to the beach is hard but worth the climb. A handyman doing a once-over would be worth it. But the place is amazing. The view is awesome. The house was huge and able to fit the whole family. The teens all sun bathed on the dock/pier, but there was nothing to stop them from falling off the end. The sea lions gave us a show and the beach gave us loads of treasures. It is obviously a second/vacation home, which was fine for our needs.

The location of this property, directly on the water on Rackliff Island, is ideal, and the house is very well laid out to accomodate a large group of guests. All in all, this rental is to be recommended, because it is comfortable, private, has a beautiful setting, and is a good value. Earlier reviews we saw said that the hot tub was broken, but it worked fine for us. The tap water that was said to smell bad did not seem bad to us. It's just well water. I have to say that we were disappointed to find that there was no ramp down from the property dock to the water level, and that thus kayaking or boating was in practical terms impossible. The upstairs bedrooms could use air conditioners. (We stayed at the property in August.). And the property manager was not very communicative: we tried to phone him about departure procedures, using the number indicated, but we got only a recorded message saying "the mailbox was full." He did email a brief and partial response the following day, which arrived a half hour before we left. The place was reasonably clean, though the bathroom in the boathouse should have the dead bugs vacuumed out of it. Bottom line, a very good property that would benefit from slightly more attention from its owner/manager.

The view and small beach were awesome. The house is great but seemed to lack maintenance. The surfaces were dusty, gas to the range was off, the main tv was broken.
I think the worst part is the tap water is almost unusable. It is not drinkable and rusty. It will stain your clothing . It’s wrecking the appliances.
It’s sad because the location and the house itself are wonderful but the owners don’t seem to care and were not interested in responding to any of our concerns.
My rating would be “meh”
