About this property
NEW LISTING ☼ Unique Oceanfront Home. Separate boat rental available.
Panoramic Oceanfront and island view direct sunrise. Nature preserves and hiking trail next door and nearby. Away from tourist traffic but convenient to restaurants, sailing club, shopping, etc.
Home was built in 2006. Immaculate with new furniture. Unique home with 36 windows throughout capitalizing on view from nearly every room.
Second floor has master bedroom and bath suite with tub and upstairs sitting area. Incredible views. Queen Sleeper in room downstairs with half bath. Third single bed convertible couch sleeping area. Oceanfront patio with gas grill connected to house propane tank.
Home receives Sebago Bay water from Portland which is excellent during warm weather. Refrigerated water cooler and water supplied. During the Winter/ cold months house is supplied with well water. It is salty and quite good for bathing. Too salty for drinking but entirely safe.
Peaks Island is one of dozens of Island situated in Casco Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. It is the most accessible to Portland and the only one served with the Car Ferry. We believe it is one of the most beautify and definitely the most livable and convenient to Portland. Ferries run from Portland about every hour from approximately 6 a.m. to nearly midnight. There are hourly car ferries 7 days a week. The schedule varies day to day and depending on the month. The Ferry ride is extremely scenic and only 15 minutes on the water.
To reach the home take the car ferry with your vehicle or without. There is a very reliable Taxi service for 3 dollars a person to the house which meets every Ferry. You will have a scenic 2 mile drive to the property around Seashore Drive. Some like to rent a golf cart near the Ferry dock. Bicycles rentals are available near the dock. There are two for your use at the house as well.
The Casco Bay Ferry schedule is always posted on the Internet. Please call us whenever you need logitical or any further information.
Just to note. There are two standard Nest outside security cameras on the property viewing the Ocean conditions and the Street coming in. One is above the front door and the other, the oceanside sliding door. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.
From the third week of October through the third week of May the city switches the water to well water. During this time dishes have to be manually washed with provided filtered water to avoid saltwater residue.

The location of this property is absolutely stunning. The ocean views are amazing, we saw multiple eagles, and Peaks Island is so peaceful. It was great that I could bring my dog, and check in was very easy.
Second time staying on peaks island and this beautiful home. We love the location and great private ocean access and views. The house has everything you need and Nikki had great communication with us. Thank you!
The property exceeded our expectations - such a beautiful spot, loved falling asleep to the sounds of the waves crashing against the rocks! Place was very clean & we'll appointed - had everything we needed for our stay!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful property. The view and the crashing ocean waves were stunning and so tranquil. The home was very clean and comfortable. Would love to go back to enjoy again!
Loved the house & views were more than exceptional!! My husband & I decided not to tour outside the island because of those magnificent views. The house is well appointed with everything we needed. Definitely will be returning.
Great views. Great vacation on Peaks Island, Maine. Highly recommend. Highly recommend house we stayed at. Owner very accommodating and easy to contact.
We had a short mishap after check-in, however, Nikki quickly fixed the situation. The location of the property is breathtaking. Wonderful home to stay, and we would visit again.
Great views, rocky beach, 270 degree ocean, big windows, only downside was manually washing dishes

Thank you so much and we are happy that you enjoyed your stay! Unfortunately the city switches the island's water in the winter time and colder months to well water which is why we can't run the dishwasher during that time. Hope to have you back soon!
Everything was perfect: location, comfort and amenities.
The view are breath taking, access to to small strip of beach down the road for swimming, great bikes and outdoor chairs (super comfortable), ample seating areas, well stocked kitchen (I loved the tiny spoons and crushed ice) and even a washer and dryer. We look forward to returning.
Really enjoyed the property and it is located beautifully along the rocky shore of the bay. Our first day was at the end of a big heat wave and the house only has one small A/C unit that we couldn’t figure out how to make work. Fortunately, the house cooled off quickly that night and we enjoyed leaving the windows open for the rest of the stay. Master bed is positioned perfectly to enjoy listening to the ocean and morning sunrises. The ferry to and from the island takes time (sometimes you have to arrive an hour or so early), patience, and money to navigate. Transporting a vehicle costs 150 per round trip. We would’ve like to have known more of these details in advance. Otherwise, the house was great, the location was beautiful, and we really enjoyed the trip. We were visited multiple times by wild turkeys roaming the yard.
Such a stunning setting. Beautiful home right at the ocean. This home is truly a bright spot on the island of Peaks. We lounged in the sun on the back lawn looking out across a beautiful ocean.
The interior is fresh and the huge windows proved over and over again to draw to the ocean.
Maximum Refreshing Experience.
From the moment you walk in, the view from the large picture window takes your breath away! The cool ocean breeze and sound of the ocean crashing on the rocks lull you to sleep at night. Clean, comfortable with all the amenities you need. Definitely recommend!
We enjoyed it so much -- the comfortable beds, the views... we decided to come back next year! The views are really unique and special; and made it really hard to leave to explore Peak's Island (which we also did do). The house is well-appointed. Thanks for the hospitality.

About the host
Hosted by Nikki Sobel
We live and work most of the time in Atlanta, Georgia. The home has a great local caretaker readily available who lives on the Island.
Why they chose this property
The most unique and beautiful oceanfront home we ever found. We bought it immediately. We have traveled extensively and search for an oceanfront home for more than 25 years.
What makes this property unique
Unbelievable oceanfront location. Unique sunrises and sunsets everyday.
The house has hard wood floors except the kitchen and bathrooms. The kitchen has a new venting microwave, dishwasher, water filter system and cooler.
The house is furnished with new furniture from West Elm and a local hand crafted Maine manufactured company.
Master bed is a new king, electric and faces the ocean. One pull out bed is a queen another a convertible couch. Dining room table and chairs are new and gorgeous. Everything is new. You can see the living room furniture a little bit one picture. You will find this is one of the nicest furnished rental homes on the island.
