  • We have stayed here for three years and love it! Our kids, ages 7, 9 and 15 look forward to coming every year! This clean, attractive home is located in a peaceful, private cul-de-sac...quick walk to the beach and bird sanctuary trail. Easy car trip to Portland and Booth Bay. Lovely local restaurants and grocery. Wonderful home away from home. Biddeford Pool is a great place for anyone to get away and relax...there is something for everyone!

  • Excellent, spacious accommodation for our group (four siblings & spouses; all mobile seniors, 60s–80s). Beds, baths, kitchen, dining and lounging facilities all highly satisfactory. This was our first experience at BP and a total delight. Easy walk to the beach and to the Audubon sanctuary (a treasure!). The wife & I walked each AM (the others slept in) to Goldthwaite’s market for the papers (and coffee & muffins over a great view of the harbor). We certainly were most pleased with our stay (August, 2008) in the Daughertys’ lovely summer home.

  • We LOVED our stay at this house. It was set up perfectly for family use...beyond anything we had imagined when we starting looking into renting a vacation house. We have two babies under two and we didn't have to drag all sorts of baby stuff with us from California because of this wonderful house. Portable crib, high chair, baby backpacks, strollers, tricycles, etc...it was great! The location was perfect - walk down the street to a spectacular nature trail or to the beach. Drive a little ways and you're exploring all the bird hotspots of Maine. If you're into antiquing or other things too, you're in a great central location. We were relaxed the whole time. And had a blast. And were able to entertain relatives who visited. Oh, and having wireless internet in the house was also an unexpected bonus that made our visit so much easier. The house has everything you could possibly need for a relaxing vacation - made it easy for us. And Jennifer was very kind to us. We would love to re-book there again as soon as we can swing another big trip for the family. Highly recommend this house for any family wanting to get away for some peace and quiet.

  • This home is truly wonderful. I've been vacationing at Biddeford Pool for at least 25 years and have stayed at many homes. This home is one of my top favorites. Lovely furnishings; large yard; extremely well-maintained all around. And all within walking distance to wonderful beaches as well as the audubon sanctuary. The owners are very gracious and do all they can to make sure guests have everything they need. I highly recommend this property to anyone who is looking for a first rate Maine experience.

  • I grew up in southern Maine and wanted a quite, peaceful summer retreat. We visited the house in Biddeford Pool with another family. We had a total of four adults, three children, and two dogs. There was plenty of room for all of us and we could've probably added a few more people. The home is clean, comfortable, and in close proximity to two great beaches-one rocky and one sandy. This home is also near many great tourist attractions in Maine. (But not so close that it's noisy and crowded.) I definitely recommend this home to anyone looking for a peaceful summer retreat.

  • We've been coming to BPL for several years, and this was the best. It really feels like a home, with everything you need for a great Maine beach experience. In addition, the house is quite spacious, with plenty of rooms, quiet spaces to read, and a wonderful deck and grill to enjoy dinners outside. The owners have paid careful attention to detail, such that all your needs are met - from a pizza stone to kids' medicine - it's all there for a memorable family vacation.

  • We rented this fantastic house for two weeks in August of this year. It's a gorgeous house - bright, sunny, wonderfully decorated, modern kitchen and bathrooms and supplied with every imaginable kitchen and beach item you could think of. Add a perfect location on a quiet street, right near both a sandy and rocky beach, berry bushes on the property bursting with ripe fruit, two terrific local restaurants and you have a recipe for a superb time you'll treasure.

  • What started out to be a Birthday Celebration for our mother at the time of contracting the week at 5th Street turned out to be a celebration of her life surrounding a Memorial Service for same week. Our family truly enjoyed your home in Biddeford Pool; a place we spent so many summers while visiting Maine as children. The home was spacious, clean, well appointed, convenient and very approporiate for our gathering of siblings and cousins. Your home will forever be a part of our memories for vacationing in Maine and we look forward to returning in June of 2007.

  • Thanks for sharing your beautiful home and so many items, all thoughtfully organized and labeled. None brought us more joy than the small yellow bicycle which four-year-old Austin learned to ride on Day One. Boy and bike were mostly inseparable for the rest of the week. Thanks, too, for arranging perfect weather for six of the seven days we spent in Maine. We hereby award five stars (*****) to the house at 5 Fifth Street, Biddeford Pool, ME., and look forward to spending another week here in the future.

  • Our family stayed at the Dougherty's home for 2 week in July 05. Easily the best vacation we have had--ever!The house is well equiped, comfortable and lovingly presented and cared for. The owners are diligent, honest and hospitable. Biddeford Pool is quaint and wonderfully quiet--blissful!
