Outstanding location!

The covered balcony was an enjoyable spot for morning coffee and evening cocktails. We loved the short walk to the Rachel Carson nature preserve and pristine beaches.

Maine at its best!

The beach home is convenient to a beautiful private beach. A short walk down the country road in the morning with my 4 year old granddaughter smelling all the sea rose was delightful! Plenty of room for a family of five! Beds were very comfortable! Never missed the air conditioning! Because we kept the doors open on the balcony. Absolutely quite! In this little seaside community. The only thing I would recommend is perhaps updating of the cooking utensils or lack of. Also the cleaning service could have done a better job cleaning. Overall a wonderful experience! Would definitely return next year!

Lovely home in a Fantastic neighborhood

We had a wonderful time for two weeks at Meg’s house. It is a 1 minute walk to the local private beach (made easier by the wagon in the basement) where my kids played in tidal pools and climbed the rocks. Sunset there is magical. Not far from Saco and Kennebunkport, which we visited a few times each. The house has all the basics you need to cook and grill. The bedrooms were nicely set up and very clean. We would love to return!
