About the host

Hosted by Debbie Kain

Host profile image
Working professional who lives next door sharing driveway and available for chats and directions. Friendly close neighborhood for strolls down to water. I often may be out of town attending trade shows in August and September for sales in footwear.

Why they chose this property

We are lucky enough to own two properties in the best neighborhood and we loved raising our family here. After San Francisco and Minneapolis, Portland is the perfect mix of urban options and the great outdoors.

What makes this property unique

Tranquil and bathed in sun all day for pretty and relaxing respite to busy sightseeing. Close to Portland and lots of activities offers the option to explore day trips up and down the Maine coastline AND still be back to enjoy and experience the ocean views and the sophistication of Portland restaurants, voted the best Foodie Capital of 2009 by Bon Appétit!
