Our family had a great time here. We loved the location (private road, easy bike ride to town, beach access, views!) and the house had plenty of space for us (6 in all). The kitchen was well-equipped for cooking (and the island grocery store had everything we needed), we enjoyed making puzzles once the sun was down, and we took the kayaks out as well. The porch was a big highlight - we spent a lot of time out there and ate most meals outside. Great sunset-viewing from here too. Definitely recommend this home!
What a way to introduce my family to the beauty of Maine.
The cottage was the perfect spot for our family vacation. It's at the end of a quiet road and offers views of Casco Bay and Great Diamond. Our kids loved that we could walk down to the private beach, either to swim or embark on a quest for sea glass and shells. My husband and I fell in love with the wide porch, where we'd start our mornings with hot coffee and a good book.
The owner was helpful and attentive, and the check-in process couldn't have been easier... especially after a long drive with young kids.
Although the cottage is a bit of a hike from the ferry, my husband and I made the walk while our kids rode their bikes. Later in the week, we rented bikes so we could explore the ocean-side of the island -- how gorgeous!
Our family definitely recommends this property as an option for your Peaks vacation!
This home is in a peaceful and gorgeous spot on Peaks Island. The big deck overlooking the water is fantastic, and the sun room with TV was also a hit.
- Incredible views
- Amazing sunsets to the left and sunrises to the right
- Super friendly neighbors
- Loved exploring the pathways around the houses
- Look for the art cart with the amazing photos and photo cards at the top of the hill
- Dinner at the Cockeyed Gull on the outdoor deck with the sun setting in the background is a great way to end the day!
The house was cute, comfortable, charming; perfect for two of us and for another visiting couple. The host couldn't have been nicer or more accommodating. Walking distance to the village, walking distance to Seashore Road; a total pleasure in every way. We plan to return.
What a gem! Views and private beach area were super and very conducive to relaxation. Nice options of activities in area--sea kayaking company on island, bike rental on island, easy access to ferry to venture into Portland.
Only negative was the "rustic" nature of the cottage--oven was neglected in the cleaning process, lots of dust bunnies under furniture, fresh stain on placemat from previous renters.
We had a great stay here at Shorehaven. Very easy to get on and off Peaks and the house is just a short distance from the ferry terminal. We loved heading to the private beach everyday and collecting beach glass. Our family really enjoyed our stay here.
We have stayed on Peaks for over 15 years every summer with a family of 6. This home, despite being a tad small for 6, was perfect this summer for us. The private beach, use of kayaks, super friendly & helpful neighbor (one of the owners), and front porch with hammock was KEY. We biked or drove to downfront whenever necessary. A long walk...but great for people who like to walk/excercise like me. The sunporch was perfect for watching a movie and for 2 to share the pullout couch (FULL/queen).
This home is private due to the dead end its on. GREAT YARD AND BBQ area.
The cottage is the perfect location on Peaks Island. Quiet, peaceful with beautiful water views. The home was immaculate, beds were all very comfortable, and the kitchen was well stocked. The owners were phenominal to deal with... answered all of our questions and helped us with everything we asked for! The location is perfect... private beach with loads of wildlife right out the front door. Everything was set up and ready for us. Parking was easy. I can't say enough how beautiful the location is! This is a must stay... our favorite VRBO rental ever!!!!
Perfect for myself and my mother, who is getting on and a Portland native. Quiet, end of the road with views of Casco Bay and Great Diamond. Porch is a perch. Very attentive owner. That’s all
A classic rustic Peaks Island summer cottage with huge porch and nice breeze and wonderful views. Lots of nice thoughtful touches. You can relax and feel the history here. The nearby private beach is a very special benefit. Communication was outstanding with owner. Our family really enjoyed the week!
We really had a great time, there were six of us and the accommodations were wonderful. The view is absolutely spectacular. The owners are so willing to do anything to make your stay more comfortable. I would give it a five star rating if it was possible. They were plenty of things to do nearby and there is parking there. And there’s also plenty of dishes and kitchen supplies.
Definitely want to come back next year.
They cottage was perfect. They view from the porch is breathtaking. We spent most of our time out there. The place was clean, the linen service was easy, and Eric was very communicative. We look forward to staying again next year.
Sweet little cottage. Plenty of hot water despite only 1 BR. Nice, quiet location. Owner very helpful in getting us more blankets - quite chilly and no heating. Be sure to bring your own linens - did not see that fine print in the listing and owner graciously arranged a linen service. Kitchen very basic with no spices except Salt and Pepper, or coffee filters, etc. so plan to buy/bring everything with you. Used the gas grill. Owner helped us with an extension cord to their next door house to charge our golf cart. Nice stay
