4br Beach House Right On Goose Rocks Beach (Some availability in June & July)

This house is perfect. Everything you need for a wonderful stay and right on the beach! With 10 people ranging in age from 6-72, we all had a wonderful time celebrating at 50th wedding anniversary. The owners are very responsive and reachable. The beach is beautiful and the house is the perfect size. We will be back!

Once again we had a marvelous time in Maine with my family. The house was perfect. Everything we needed was available. The beds were confortable. Kitchenware, nothing missing. Windows everywhere, the beach fabulous. The owners were easily reachable and gave good advices on place to buy good fish. We had the luck to have a full moon night and clear sky. I wish I could keep it a secret, but since I'm a generous kind, I wanted to share my experience with you all. Thank you to the Rigney family to share their house.

As a child our family spent part of every summer vacationing in Maine and spent countless hours on Goose Rocks Beach. With our parents failing in health we knew our chance to have one last, amazing family vacation for us all to remember, on the beach we had all "grown up" on was upon us. And so, in July 2013, three generations of Grand parents, parents, aunts, uncles and cousins traveling from California to Massachusetts did just that. Having arrived, sight unseen, we weren't sure what to expect. We were NOT disappointed. The setting was breath taking and the house was absolutely amazing. The first floor is so open and provided so much space that we were all able to be together for family dinners and game night. The master bedroom on the first floor was perfect for the grand parents. They had their own easily accessible bedroom and bathroom while the rest of the family comfortably occupied the remaining bedrooms upstairs. The beach was just as amazing as we all remembered growing up and the next generation left feeling the same way. When it was time to go home, there were tears shed by all. No one wanted to leave the house we had claimed as home for the last week. The memories we made in this home are priceless. We hope to return soon and have highly recommended it to all our friends.

My family and I have stayed at this house several times, and I have vacationed at Goose Rocks since I was a teenager. The beach is just as spectacular and serene now as it was two decades ago (it never feels too crowded or loud, and it is perfect for long walks.) The house is on the private end of the beach--directly on the water. The views are unbeatable, the sunsets magical.

The house is recently renovated. Although it has always been comfortable and clean, it is now absolutely beautiful. Plenty of lovely sitting areas, a well-equipped kitchen, etc. It is a very well-cared for home, and the location cannot be beat.

I have traveled a fair amount, and this beach remains one of my absolute favorite places. It is truly special.

I've been to this home several times both during shoulder and high seasons. Whether playing bocce on the beach with graduate school friends who have flown in from around the country to meet up here, having a quiet romantic weekend, or spending a week in August with my partner and our twin toddlers, the house and beach have consistently provided a much needed respite, a place to unplug (although you don't have to as there is wireless), an unbeatable view, and everything we need for a self-contained vacation.

The proximity to the beach is unbeatable. The recently professionally redecorated interior and upgrade is comfortable, tasteful and not chintzy as many beach homes tend to be. The open floor plan on the first floor is wonderful for larger groups and/or families with children as one can feel connected (or keep an eye on younger children) but still enjoy a number of distinct nooks and sitting areas. The beach itself is extraordinary, and the option to enjoy tide pools and the estuary on either end of the beach provides never-ending pleasure for paddlers, beachcombers, and children alike. For active folks, there are several loops from the house which are good for runners, walkers and cyclists. Although there are many restaurants within a short drive, we tend to stay in and cook. The kitchen is well equipped. We often use the grill and enjoy supper on the table on the back porch. The large country farm style table indoors is comfortable for entertaining, and is also a nice work surface for computers, projects, puzzles, boardgames, etc. The two sitting areas that directly face the beach are the perfect place for an early morning coffee, an evening glass of wine (and really everything in between).

I've had a satisfying stay every time. I leave feeling rested. I've never wanted my time at this home to end.
