Location & Beach Access
A neighborhood beach access point is just a short walk away, offering an easy and low-key way to enjoy the coast without crowds or parking hassles. Swim, relax, or take long shoreline walks in a quieter setting than nearby public beaches.
Cape Elizabeth is known for its scenic coastline, lighthouses, golf courses, and local favorites like ice cream shops and coastal trails. Portland’s Old Port, restaurants, shops, and waterfront are approximately 15 minutes away by car.
Seasonal Note
In August, the famous Beach to Beacon road race passes nearby. Guests staying during this time can enjoy the experience from the property without needing to travel or park along the course.

We respect our guests’ privacy while remaining available throughout the stay. Communication is easy and responsive via the booking platform if questions or needs arise.
Other Things to Note

The "Hideway" is more like a tree house, and just exactly what I needed for an extended rest. I liked the relaxed feel, the view over the valley, and the early morning rooster from the farm down below. Alex and Carly were wonderful hosts.
Working remote can be tough but Alex made it super easy. He had really good recommendations of the area and a spacious clean accommodation for the whole family. Not to mention their internet connection was one of the fastest out of the properties we’ve ever stayed in. I would give more stars if I could.

So glad to hear it, Jon. Thank you so much. We hope you’ll be back again!
What a perfect spot to stay for our trip to Maine! The house is well appointed and very comfortable The hosts graciously welcomed us to Maine and made the whole process seamless for us- there were no problems with the house at all. The location is in a quiet neighborhood within walking distance to some gorgeous beaches, great restaurants and some quintessential Maine activities like the Cape Elizabeth Lighthouse- which is a must see. We will definitely be coming back and staying here again soon!

Thank you so much for staying with us. We are so glad you enjoyed your time and hope you will be back again soon!
Our family of five discovered the perfect vacation spot at a fantastic rental house in Cape Elizabeth. Our hosts, Carly and Alex, were remarkably warm and hospitable, making us feel immediately at home. Their local insights enriched our experience of the town.
The house was meticulously clean and welcoming, offering a serene escape from city life. Our children enjoyed the yard, and we relaxed on the patio, soaking in the peaceful surroundings. The hosts were always available, offering help whenever needed, which enhanced our stay.
This exceeded our expectations with its cleanliness, tranquility, and exceptional hospitality. We highly recommend it for a family vacation and look forward to our next visit. Only next time we’ll book our stay longer :)

Thank you so much, Jenn. It was lovely to have you and your family. We hope you will be back again!
We had the best time staying at this rental. It was super clean upon arrival and felt like a cozy Maine cabin - but located only 10 minutes from downtown Portland.
The kitchen had everything we need (including sharp knives) and the bed in the master was SO comfortable. The second upstairs bedroom has blackout curtains which was amazing for our daughter who slept in the crib and there were books and some toys that kept her entertained - always a bonus to not have to travel with so much. Carly was really communicative and lovely to work with. We enjoyed the house so much and will be back!
Such a beautiful property located amidst nature and only a 15 minute drive to providence!
We had the best time here!! The house is lovely and very well thought out with everything we needed to have a wonderful summer stay. We were traveling with a baby and the property was well equipped with a crib, high chair and baby bath. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed. The backyard is a gorgeous forest and so serene - yet we were only a 15 minute drive from beautiful and bustling downtown Portland!! Such a good time. The hosts were extremely accommodating and friendly!!
