After visiting 4 other states, this cozy house was like an exclamation point for our travels. The kitchen was well stocked and had gas for the grill outside. We bought groceries and enjoyed home cooked meals. Also visited several places mentioned by Kevin. With the changing fall weather, we’re comfortable and warm. I’d love to come back here again.

Beautiful, cozy home in a quaint neighborhood just minutes from the waterfront restaurants and shops in Portland. The owner is very generous in providing every convenience to make you feel at home and welcome. This was a perfect place for two couples to stay while visiting Portland and Freeport, so comfortable that we actually Ubered in dinner from local restaurants two nights! Perfect home away from home. Highly recommend!
