Best Vacation Ever!

We stayed here 2 years ago and loved it so much we came back! The house is absolutely perfect. It’s so beautiful and the hosts have included many touches that make it feel “just like home” for families. The home is clean and well maintained and the location is amazing! We were steps away from the beach and only a short drive to several different little towns with lots to do! We will absolutely stay here again. The hosts, Kim and Tim, are so kind and helpful. They gave us great recommendations and were very easy to reach. Honestly this was just the greatest stay from beginning to end!

best family rental in Maine

This is by far the best family reunion house we have rented. We have been coming to Maine since 2009. The owners are supper helpful, it is walking distance to a great beach for children, the house is clean/welcoming and can accomodate a bigger family comfortably. They have placed a lot of attention to detail and can be reached easily. A great place to make lasting memories.

We had a great time at this rental! The property was clean & very comfortable. Plenty of space for our family to spread out and enjoy their time there. Had a little problem with the lock and once with power upstairs but Kim & Tim were quick to get it taken care of. Overall was a great rental and a great week! Hoping to rent this property again next summer!

A beautiful and welcoming property within walking distance to Hill Beach. The added treat basket and vase of flowers added to the warmth of the welcome. I am sure that various groups, including ones with children, would love this place! The home is also very close to Ogunquit, Kennebunkport and even Portland. I would definitely stay her again!

Perfect spot for a family vacation!

I grew up going to Hills Beach with my family, and we were looking for a place where we could all get together under one roof again. This was the ideal spot! The house was everything that was advertised in the listing with plenty of space for us. Kim and Tim were fantastic and friendly hosts who really went out of their way to make our stay comfortable. Can’t say enough about the property or the experience. Great location only two houses from the beach and the front porch was a great place to enjoy the summer weather! We’d absolutely stay again next time.

Great Stay on the Maine Coast

After touring New Hampshire, we traveled to Biddeford, to enjoy the Maine coast at Hill’s Beach. Our house was lovely, well decorated, and cozy. The beds were very comfortable, with great linens. The kitchen was attractive and well equipped. The house is located on a quite street, just a short, easy walk to the beach. There’s a good view of the ocean from the upstairs windows, and we enjoyed daily walks on the beach. There are tons of great restaurants in Biddeford and Saco, and Kennebunkport is just a short drive away. We definitely recommend this location and this house.

Don’t miss out on this one!

Your walk to the beach is approximately 45 seconds from the front door until your feet hit the sand. It’s the quietest neighborhood ever….except when the old fashion ice cream truck rolls up the street playing the tunes you’ll remember from your childhood days! So cool! The views are out of this world. The owners are amazing, and super accommodating! ❤️ Stop searching…. This is your next vacation home in Maine. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Gorgeous home steps from the beach.

My daughter and I stayed at this property over the Christmas holiday. I grew up in Maine and my sister lives in Biddeford. Coming from Houston, I miss the ocean so wanted to stay where I could walk to the beach. This home is excellent. It’s spacious, comfortable, and has everything you need. I hosted my siblings and their families for dinner one evening and there was plenty of room. The owners were very responsive. The neighbors are lovely. I met one neighbor and we chatted for some time as he was out plowing driveways. I highly recommend this home and would stay there again.

Wonderful property!

We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay for our son's first beach trip! The house was beautiful and steps to the quiet beach. We've never seen such a cool low tide! We had everything we needed in the house, including books and toys for our 18 month old. Communication was fast and pleasant and check in/out was a breeze. We can't wait to come back!

Perfect Coastal Maine Getaway

Our family grew up vacationing in nearby Biddeford Pool during the summers. The family home is no longer, and many years later, this beautifully decorated Hills Beach home exceeded all of our expectations. From the quiet street, ocean views from the bedroom windows, stocked kitchen, short walk to the beach, and informative and detailed communications with the owners, our family vacation went off without a hitch. Thank you for providing the perfect setting for us to introduce a new generation to our family beach traditions. We definitely plan to return and hope to stay here again!
