Good four night break.

A very positive stay in Biddeford! Easy to reach beaches and mountains. It was a convenient “between Hotels” stop on our 2500 mile road trip as we were able to wash some clothing. Echo and family had been a great help from our first contact with them earlier this year. Many thanks. Adrian and Elwen

Couldn’t have been better

Property was immaculate secondary to attentive hosts! Location, location, location! Very short distance to Biddeford, Kennebunkport & Ogunquit. As a photographer, brought back beautiful fall pics of the coast. This property was pet friendly so I was able to bring my therapy dog. Coming back!

Great rental!

This place had everything I needed and more! They accommodated myself and my dog, and were quick to answer me when I reached out about the check out procedure- ps they don’t require a massive close out like some rentals! I was able to work remotely during the day and the internet was great! This is a perfect location for anyone who’s coming to southern Maine and needs a home away from home.

About the host

Hosted by Echo Dixon

My husband is from New York, and I grew up in northern Maine. We moved to Biddeford out of love for the area. It is a hidden gem central to everything southern Maine has to offer. We have two beloved dogs, Gizmo and Chase, who are opinionated and loyal. We have three cats, Noodles, Dumbledore, and Gandalf, who continue to let us live here. Noodles is the only girl and the queen of the house. The vet says she is disabled, but she 100% disagrees. I am a therapist, and my husband is the director of day programming at a local social service agency. We love hosting people and bought this house and adjoining apartment to achieve our dream. Welcome!

Why they chose this property

The property is a 1900 farmhouse that was completely renovated. We live in the old farmhouse, and the apartment is attached. It has two separate entrances providing privacy. The first floor is composed of a family room and kitchen. The family room has a propane stove, a twin daybed, and a couch that pulls into a queen bed. There is a dining table for four and a dedicated workstation. The kitchen is complete with everything you need to make meals. In the kitchen is a doorway to the beautiful, secluded backyard with a firepit. Upstairs is an oversized bedroom with a king-sized bed, a walk-in closet, and a reading area. The bedroom is attached to a large bathroom with a shower, washer, and dryer.

What makes this property unique

The unit is quiet and sunny. It is only 9 minutes from several breweries and restaurants. In the other direction, it is 9 minutes from some of Maine's most beautiful beaches. It is only 6 minutes from the University of Southern Maine. It is a quick 30-minute drive to Portland and next door to Old Orchard and Kennebunk. There is central heating, air conditioning, and 1.25 acres of land to explore.
