Close to campus but also quintessential Maine coastal rental. We had beautiful fall weather while we were there so were able to enjoy the patio and also the backyard fire area with choice of solo stove or chiminea and Adirondack chairs and a picnic table overlooking the water. Easy access to Hills Beach, a quiet sandy beach across the street, and a short distance to Fortunes Rocks Beach. The house was clean and had everything we needed to cook a full meal and enjoy hosting a small dinner. The bedrooms were small but perfect for what we needed. We appreciated having a washer and dryer in the house and cable TVs. Host was responsive and informative. Will definitely be back! ##### Lisa B.

It is so quiet and peaceful, yet perfect distance to what you need. LL Bean in Freeport and Kennebunkport are so close. Many things to do. We brought our kayaks and launched both from the back of the house and across the street in the ocean. Went to Market Basket for our lobsters and steamer clams every night. We frequent VRBO's and my 17 year old son was so happy to have ice from the refrigerator, lol. The house is very clean and decorated beach style, so comfy. I didn't need a thing and I'm always the one who brings extras so I am comfortable. Nice to have real cable instead of on demand for the late evening. We bought firewood and sat by the fire. The host was great to communicate with. Gave us great advice! Definitely visit Ken's in Scarborough, it was yummy! Need to plan our next trip back! ##### Kendra K.

Jun 28, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Property and location Just returned from a Friday-Sunday stay. It was myself, my husband, and our two young daughters. Very cute house...3 proper bedrooms and one loft (which my kids loved!). One bathroom-small but suitable. Best part of the property was the location....behind the house is a picturesque marsh...and across the street just a short walk is a very pretty, very quiet beach. We were the only ones there almost always. It is a bay area, so no waves, great for a protective mom, the kids were not as happy lol. But all sand, and really nice. House was well appointed with basically everything you need. Owner requested we bring our own toilet paper and paper towels (which should be included at house, imo...), but when we arrived they were indeed supplied, so they were not necessary. Plenty of clean linens and kitchenware. Oh-there was a great outdoor shower which I didn't intend to use but the kids loved it after the beach-a nice perk. The only critique I can offer, which really is out of the owners hands, is that the other houses nearby are very, very close. There are large windows, so there was not a lot of privacy. The other downside to this was one of the neighbors decided to throw a very loud get together that went well into the early morning....and faced all of our sleeping windows. Simply due to the proximity of their property, it did keep us awake. Bad luck I guess. All in all it is a wonderful location that we would happily stay in again. Thank you!! ##### Aria N.
