Steps to the beach
The property was well maintained. Sleeping to the sounds of ocean waves was delightful. As well the beach access being right on the other side of the street was terrific. Owner was easy to communicate with. Would consider staying at this property again.

Vacation cottage
This property was so delightful, warm and welcoming. Reminded my two brothers and me of the cottages my parents rented when we were kids. Those two brothers, their wives and I were very comfortable. The property was very well stocked. We lacked for nothing. Our only recommendation is to replace the shower head in the smaller bathroom.

Perfect beach access
Very quiet and peaceful neighborhood and the beach access is a plus. My only con would be that there was no air conditioning and if the weather would have been warmer it would have been quite uncomfortable.

Close to the beach
This was our second year renting the property. It was less clean than our original stay. But the proximity to the beach just a short walk away made up for it. It was an excellent week spent with family.

Great location and porch!
Had a great week with family…we love the front porch. Only drawback is no air conditioning and shower head in small bathroom needs to be replaced. Water gets everywhere and pressure is too high for your body.

beds were comfortable and house was well equipped,however the house needs attention. All metal baseboard heat covers were rusted. The front window of the house had not been washed in a long while. paint around the window was peeling. Shower curtain liner in large bathroom had mildew along bottem. the second bathroom is impossibly small and had a large cobweb hanging from the ceiling. There was greasy dust on all lightbulbs in the bathrooms as well as on the fans. There were no screens on one of the bedrooms window. they were leaning against the house outside. There were 3 remotes for the TV with no instructions.

A comfortable and well-stocked home
This is a comfortable and well-stocked home in a fantastic location just steps from the beach. Rick was welcoming and responsive to questions prior to our trip. Based on other guests’ reviews, we expected that the home needed a few updates, but we were still surprised by the number of small issues we encountered (broken shower, stained bedding, etc.). Although the listing says that there is at least one day between bookings, the previous guests seemed to have just departed—the house was still being cleaned when we arrived. The previous guests had used the portable air conditioner, which had leaked water and saturated a large area of the dining room’s carpet. The carpet was so thoroughly soaked that it still hadn’t dried when we checked out four days later. With no property manager nearby, there was no way to resolve the issues we encountered during our stay. For such an expensive rental, we had higher expectations for the condition of the property.

The location was right next to the ocean and the space was perfect for our family. The house was clean and well stocked. The weather was sweltering during the day. At night the house cooled down and the fans helped.

About the host

Hosted by Rick Hurst

Host profile image
Although we currently live in NJ - our family roots are here in Maine where we vacationed every summer since I was born (way too long ago).

Why they chose this property

Our beachfront home was built by my grandparents and has been with us ever since. It has always been a favorite spot for our family vacations.

What makes this property unique

The funny thing that makes me totally relax is the smell of the ocean air from when you first arrive and look out over the ocean. Just watching the surf and listening to the sounds of the seashore is one of the most tranquil and soothing experiences I can imagine. The compliment to this is the plethora of outstanding local restaurants and taverns with the best New England Clambakes anywhere.
