About this house rental
Picture yourself on our beautiful porches for the most relaxing moments of your day... the sun porch with a hot cup of coffee and a direct ocean view, the breezy open porch for cocktail hour and a cotton candy sky, or the screened porch at the huge hand-carved table with your family and friends for a fresh-caught lobster dinner.
With panoramic ocean views throughout most of the home, a large oceanside yard perfect for family play, a private path to the quietest section of Maine's longest sandy beach, and all the amenities you require... ours is the perfect home for your next vacation.
Our family home's location is perfect. We are around the corner from fresh lobster and local restaurants and just a couple of miles from Old Orchard Beach and multiple grocery stores including the gourmet "On the Vine" in Scarborough. We are a short drive to Portland, Kennebunkport, and other charming destinations. But even with every modern convenience nearby, you will feel like you arrived at a quiet retreat the minute you walk up the path and catch your first breath of ocean air.
The kitchen is fully stocked with pantry staples, plentiful glasses for your happy hours, a propane grill in the gazebo, and two indoor and two outdoor dining areas. Kids are welcome in our home and we provide a pack-n-play, high chair, children's books, and family games. You are also set for the beach with 10 beach chairs, a beach umbrella, boogie boards, and sand toys!
This home has been in our family since 1895 and is very special to us. My husband grew up spending many happy summers here and our children and grandchildren have made made countless special memories in this house as well. We hope you will enjoy it as we do and care for it like it is your own family's home.

We loved this house! It is an old house, but that is part of its charm. The wrap around porches were awesome for hanging out, especially the ones with the view of the water. The beach was absolutely beautiful - we had great weather! Check in was easy and we had no problem communicating with the owner. We were provided with homemade bread, blueberry jam and pumpkin whoopie pies, along with a gorgeous bouquet of flowers when we checked in.

Excellent location, easy beach access. Old house, charming but quirky. Excellent sun room for breakfast.

An unbeatable location and a beautiful house with a lot of character. Older houses are not for everyone, but it's authentic in a way you can't recreate in a new build. You can tell it's been well loved over the years, and likely brought a lot of joy to the owner's family across generations. The coolest feature by far is the wrap around porch - there's a screened in section, an open section, and a window section, all with spectacular views. It was perfect for our extended family to spend a week at the beach and we're grateful we got to experience such a lovely property.We were a bit disappointed with the cleanliness of the house when we arrived, but I suppose that's to be expected when you rent at the end of the summer (it was mid August, and there was sand all over the chair cushions, the tables hadn't been cleaned, and I don't think the floors or the grill had been properly cleaned all summer. The recycling bin was rancid, and the bathrooms had a funk to them that never really went away.). Also, heads up that the local property management company doesn't make the beds....they just leave bags of (surprisingly low quality) linens on the porch . It was fine (it's a beach house after all) but at this price point I guess I expected it to be a bit more put together on arrival. After tidying up the house, cleaning the grill, and making the beds we had a spectacular week.

Great location with great views. A nice rustic beach house that accommodated 8 adults and four kids.
