Home away from home.. but better.

What a beautiful home. The airy feeling with natural light and the plants, makes the rental feel like home. There is SO much room and beautiful views. I stayed in a rental once before, but the rules made it feel too strict. But this rental was not like that. They are kind owners and theres a letter to simply say they love their home please respect it. Being off season, the dog got to go on the beach. Great walk. It is so close to Portland and a great area with food and such. This will definitely be my go to rental every time we head to Maine. (It should be yours too!)
