Perfect location for a family reunion

Craig and his family have created the perfect place for a family reunion! Plenty of sleeping spaces, convenient to everything, welcoming and hospitable for all ages, and just quirky enough to be able to have many generations together without having to worry about “messing something up”. He and his wife do live on site, and we saw each other for brief check ins in the driveway throughout our week, but they are very unobtrusive and it never felt as if we were being “watched” (which can be the case in rentals with owners on property. Kids (ages 5-13) all had an absolute blast. We were so busy having fun in nearby York and Ogunquit all week, we actually never got around to bringing rental kayaks to the house for launching in the backyard or the fire pit for an evening of s’mores, but both things are readily available (and a reason to come back!). We would absolutely return to this beautiful, cozy home in a heartbeat. Thank you, Craig and family, for letting us enjoy your little slice of heaven!

Amazing time

The location of the house to the areas we wanted to travel to was perfect. Short walk to the beach, quiet neighborhood. Craig was very accommodating if something came up. Definitely recommend the spot.

Annual Family Vacation

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay with our 4 adult children, spouses and 3 grandchildren. It was a perfect location, near one of the quieter beaches, perfect for kids and while close to all the activities in short sands, was in a quiet, private setting. The house was well equipped and spacious, the owner very responsive and easy to work with. The wagon, cooler, and beach toys provided made it an easy walk to the beach. Would definitely recommend, as long as you are ok with no A/C.

Best location, great vacation property

We stayed for 7 nights with various families coming and going. The property location is right in the middle of where you want to be. Great local small beach within walking distance and The lobster pound next door. Having coffee on the dock in the morning is priceless. Will definitetly re rent this fantastic house
