Acres Away - Spacious Maine Retreat w/ Bunkhouse

We are 4 men that rent a vrbo every year and play golf all week. There was plenty of room for everyone. The outdoor space was perfect for our cornhole boards and the fire pit added a fantastic touch. We would relax each night and watch the deer and turkey in the back part of the property. One of the nicest places we have stayed in our 20 years of excursions...perfect spot as a base play golf - many courses within 20 minutes. A rating from us.

Great layout, plenty of room for a large group. John was great to deal with.

Perfect for our group! We rented this house for our 10 year reunion at UNH. The bedrooms and bunkhouse were nice and clean! We enjoyed using the fire pit in the backyard and could hang house in the large open kitchen. Overall, a great stay!

Groom and groomsmen stayed in this property. It was comfortable, clean, and the perfect location.

This is a beautiful property - impeccably clean, well-designed, and stocked with everything you need. The layout of the main house is fantastic, with ample space for everyone to be together or in separate areas. The kids loved what we came to call the playroom, and thoroughly enjoyed the games, arcade, and mini putting green. My favorite part was the back patio and firepit area. The bunkhouse was great extra space as well. Our family had a magical time at this property. The hosts were fantastic - they had excellent communication with us before, during, and after. It was clear they genuinely want their guests to have a top-notch experience. We'd go back in a heartbeat, and hope to do just that!

The house is beautiful and had the perfect amount of space for our group of 10. The kids loved the play space in the garage! Very quiet neighborhood, house was exactly as described and pictured. John and Jess very extremely responsive and accommodating. We will definitely be back!

I booked this place a week ago for my graduation in Manchester New Hampshire. John the host, was very accommodating and great with communication ensuring everything ran smoothly during our stay! This place was in IMMACULATE condition. My family and I were very impressed and would definitely book again for another stay. Highly recommend 10/10 if you are looking for a getaway and you are traveling with children or a larger group.

Very nice property. Quiet area. The garage area that has bunk beds got a little chilly at night. There is no insulation in the ceiling it's just a garage with a mini-split. Otherwise a perfect stay.

Our family had a wonderful celebration at this house! The open floorplan and beautiful kitchen were a hit! Everyone loved the game room which was great for celebrating my son's birthday! The house was spacious and well-equipped and we felt immediately at home here. The location was perfect, only minutes from UNH and we look forward to coming back next spring to celebrate our son's graduation from college. Thanks again to our hosts (John & Jess) for such an amazing stay.

This place is close to everything: Portsmouth, Kittery- it's all 10ish minutes away. Very quick and convenient. The house is nicely furnished, adequately supplied with towels and blankets etc, we loved the fire place (were there late December).

Wonderful! It snowed overnight and the owner was out the next morning shoving the driveway.

We visited from California. Our arrival was earlier than the check in time, the owner was kind enough to let us know as soon as the house was available and let us check in 2 hours early so that we didn't have to wait in the car tired from the traveling with our luggage. The house looks just as it does in the pictures! Very clean, beautiful and comfortable for a family of 6 with a dog.The bunkhouse was perfect for an adult that needed his own space. Although you can sleep 3 people easily in there with 3 beds. The outside shower gives you more flexibility when with a big group, there is also a porta potty, that was very clean to be able to use when the bathroom indoors was occupied. The bunkhouse does not have any bathrooms/toilets FYI: however, it was not an issue for us.The owner was super responsive with anything I needed or had questions on. ( I couldn't find a TV remote LOL and he had one overnighted to us)The kitchen /living room/dining room tie into the garage that is turned into a bonus/game room / a office space was perfect! Very spacious and everyone had their own space if they needed it, although we all stuck together from room to room which was my dream come true to watch my adult kids hang out and enjoy each other's company with mom and dad. There are plenty of board games, cornhole, spike ball, giant Jenga, trivia, golf and so many games to bond with your group.One of the highlights was the firepit, we BBQed and had S'mores one night on a perfect starry night. The yard is amazing, and the trees were blooming in October!This house is perfect for a group or a family. We will definitely go back again! As for activities in the area: Portsmouth has plenty to do and see, Maine has the lighthouses and beautiful sceneries, we took a train from Dover to Boston for the day that was an amazing experience. Apple picking was a fun family time. All and all 5 star are earned! Thank you for your hospitality!
