We were so happy to stay here!! There were 5 adults and we were very comfortable. We found it spotless in every room. The kitchen and bathrooms were fully stocked with everything you would need to stay. This is not a cottage it's a home.would recommend anyone going to the Scarborough area to stay here.

Wonderful home

This property is in a tranquil and relatively private location, all while being close to things to do. The hosts are wonderful and provided a nice binder with local recommendations and a beautiful floral arrangement. The Jones Family Farm goats milk soap smelled delicious and was a nice touch. It was a nice reprieve from the busy work-week and was such a lovely home!

Scarborough, ME, June 2025

For our visit with family who live in Scarborough, the house was ideally located. It’s close enough to Portland and Saco to enjoy their attractions and close enough to Rt 95 to travel further afield. The house itself has a great view of a marsh and an enclosed porch to enjoy it from. It also has about everything you need if you plan to eat in. Everything about making arrangements to stay there was easy. We would stay there again.

Cute house with a great layout in a country setting

This house was perfect for our stay. You can tell the hosts put a lot of time and effort into making this home welcoming. The location is convenient for dining and shopping while still feeling laidback and restful. The house itself has every amenity a person could need and then some. We appreciated the small ramp to the door and the bathroom fixtures that assisted with mobility. All of the people in my group loved this rental and would absolutely stay here again if we were visiting the area.

Great property and overall experience!

The property is great! I felt the location was perfect....gave us the feeling privacy but was also located within a few minutes drive to anything we needed or wanted to do. The owners were a pleasure to deal with...great communication and very friendly. I would definitely stay at this property again!

Perfect location

We loved this secluded home. It was only a 10 minute drive from the Scarborough Fish & Game club where we competed in the Maine State Sporting Clays shoot. The home was clean and had everything we needed. We liked it and booked to go back in September!

Cozy, quiet, great stay!

Cottage was cozy and clean, perfect size for our family of 5 to spread out. Nice quiet location, close driving distance to so much. Great communication from property manager. Our favorite spot was the sunroom, we enjoyed watching for wildlife and playing card/board games. Will definitely recommend to friends and family! Thank you!

Very clean and comfortable! The home was equipped with everything needed! And the first property we have stayed at that was better than the pictures! Beds were all very comfortable, more than enough space in every room, and the fresh flowers on arrival were an awesome surprise! We will definitely be back!

Coastal Maine Get-Away!

My sister and I took our 92 yr old mom on a mother/daughter trip to coastal Maine--we picked the perfect spot to stay! The home was located close to beaches, restaurants and attractions, yet was completely quiet, private and surrounded by nature. Although my mom is spry and active, it was nice to have everything on the ground floor and with a ramp to the front door. The kitchen was well equipped (so glad it had a Keurig coffee maker!) and having 2 bathrooms for the 3 bedrooms was a much appreciated plus!

Very Clean, Great Central Location

Very clean & tidy, appliances & all in good condition. Lots of the little things you need in the kitchen were present, unlike many rentals. Overall very good place to stay. We were day-tripping and this is an excellent location for that purpose. Very good value, and all-in-all a pleasant and hassle-free experience.

House was spacious with 3 separate bedrooms located in different ends of the house along with two full bathrooms. Kitchen was open to the dining area and living room and came with a full selection of pots and pans and spices to prepare meals. It was a perfect retreat in the country to relax.

Excellent property

This property is a central location for most activities. Everything is updated and exceptionally nice. The owner responds quickly, in fact I inquired as to which kind of coffee maker there was and it was the regular type and he responded again that he put a Keurig, as well. A very nice one, too. The yard was big enough for our grandson to play baseball. We would highly recommend this property to anyone looking in that area for a nice place to stay.
