Scarborough, Maine
Classic Maine home with electric vehicle charger. It is located close to three sandy beaches ( Higgins, Scarborough State Park and Ferry). A Maine lobsterman sells locally caught seafood just a minute from the house or enjoy fine dining overlooking the ocean at nearby Black Point Inn. Also close is Eastern Trails and Camp Ketcha offering opportunities for great mountain biking and hiking or kayak the Scarborough Marsh from the Audubon Center. Enjoy lunch and shopping in Portland which is both a mix of quintessential seaside town and eclectic modern flair. For the kids and kids at heart on Route 1 is Funtown Amusement Park, Aquaboggin Water Park and yes even a drive-in movie theatre. Thirty minutes to the south are the ocean side villages of Wells, Kennebunkport, and Ogunquit. Thirty minutes to the north is Freeport (home of LL Bean)and many outlet stores. At the end of the day spend the evening gathered round in a large natural hickory and pine kitchen with professional chefs range and oven or outside by a fire on an open stone patio. Our home is fully equipped with all kitchen essentials, bedding, towels, beach towels, chairs and sand toys. All the comforts of home. 2 queen size beds,2 single size, a single folding bed and a pack&play.
Loved this place and already want to return. Great location and super homey feel inside. More amenities in this place than I have in my primary home!
This property and its owner couldn't have been better. The house is perfect for a family and I have never had a house that was as well-stocked with everything we could imagine. This house had it all. The location was perfect for visits to several beaches, Portland and its iconic Old Port, Portland Headlight and a trip on a lobster fishing boat for the young ones. And, any correspondence I had with the owner was answered quickly.
We were all so comfortable here. The owners had so many nice little perks. There were 7 of us and we all agree if he head back that way again next year we wanna stay at the same place. The location is so convenient to everything!! Thanks to the owners for sharing their home.
This home in Scarborough was the perfect home base for our family vacation. Every detail was so thoughtful, from the extra supplies to the decor. I highly recommend this property.
We we're happy with everything, felt right at home.
As soon as we arrived with our daughter and her boyfriend, this house felt like home. The kitchen was the perfect gathering place with a large table for meals, games and afternoon cups of tea. The living rooms and bedrooms were comfy and cozy. The backyard was wonderful, although we were out the door to Scarborough Beach State Park every morning...what a gem and only a few minutes drive down the road. The beach towels, chairs and umbrellas at hand were just a few of the thoughtful items available to make our stay relaxing. And afternoon/evening highlights for us: Fort Williams Park in Cape Elizabeth with Bite Into Maine lobster rolls and whoopie pies, dinner at Eventide in Portland and The Lobster Shack at Two Lights in Cape Elizabeth, Maine Escape Games (some of the best we've ever experienced), Palace Diner breakfast/lunch in Biddeford, and of course, the shops in Scarborough for seafood, pastries and fresh pasta. Mary Jane, thanks for being in touch so quickly when I reached out, and for giving us our space to totally chill at your home. It was memorable.
This property gave us the option of a nice house in a quiet neighborhood instead of the incurring all the noise and traffic on the Portland shore. It’s less than 20 minutes away from Portland.. The home is older but there are many obvious improvements throughout the house to make it more updated and comfortable. I was very impressed with the owner, Mary Jane, who was a pleasure to work with. Whatever questions I had were always answered in a timely manner. You may want to give this property a look.
This is not just a rental house, it is a HOME!! This home has a Maine farmhouse vibe but with all the modern amenities. Kitchen is well stocked with everything needed to prepare a meal. Plenty of dishes, glasses cutlery, pots and pans etc . The home has a cozy, comfortable living area with big TV. The beds are all comfortable. There is even a memory foam rollaway that was super comfy. The lower level has a great all purpose room. It has a daybed, TV, and best of all it is stocked with an assortment of toys that my 3 year old grandson loved. There is a full size washer and dryer on this level as well. The home was stocked as though it was our personal home with plenty of towels, sheets, soap, laundry soap, paper towels, toilet paper, hand soap, bath soap etc. There are plenty of beach towels, beach chairs, beach toys, a beach wagon and even a beach umbrella! I can't say enough about how perfect this house is. We were a group of 6 adults and 2 kids. There was plenty of space both inside and out for all of us! Thank you Mary for a fantastic stay! Hope to stay again next summer!!!
I stayed here with 3 friends for a short getaway. It's a beautiful home with everything you need. It is located in a lovely area near salt marshes, just 2 miles from a nice beach, and 15-20 minutes from everything you want to do in the Portland area. The large backyard has a firepit and nice patio for relaxing. We loved it!
The house had everything we needed. Mary was great with all my questions. The location is very central which worked well.
Very well equipped with lots of outdoor toys and a huge yard to enjoy them in. Beds were super comfy.
Everything was perfect. When we walked in it was set up so perfectly and the attention to detail throughout the property was great. Will definitely book next time we come back.
The house is accurately described and very well appointed. It's filled with antiques yet very cozy and comfortable. The location was perfect for day trips to Kennebunkport and Freeport and there is so much to do in Portland (we highly recommend the ferry to Peak's Island).
This amazing home is very well kept, very clean, beautiful setting, nice & roomy & accommodating as well as great location!! Beds were all very comfortable as well! Owner left us some local donuts & coffee for our first morning here, very thoughtful & much appreciated!! Thankful to have had this opportunity to stay here, would definitely stay again!!
