Plenty of fresh air being circulated with our newly installed ERV (ventilation) system and heat pumps on each floor (for heating and cooling). Guests can boost the ERV (ventilation) with buttons in each bathroom. There are also ceiling fans throughout the home.

A Sonos sound system is also available throughout the house with three different zones. (Guests can connect directly through our Wifi to Airplay your favorite music.)
BACKYARD:
Fenced in backyard includes a stone fire pit area with Adirondack chairs, hammock, and surrounding gardens. Stairs lead from the fire pit area to the deck where you'll find the grill & outdoor dining set with an umbrella for shade. (Grilling tools & propane tank provided)

The main floor of our home is an open layout with the kitchen, dining area, living room & half bath.
Full kitchen boasts an induction stovetop, convection oven, dishwasher, family size refrigerator & freezer with an ice maker, microwave, toaster, blender, drip coffee maker & tea kettle. Cooking basics including spices, oil, pots, pans, dishes and utensils all provided. Cookware with utensils for lobster & clambakes also included. (This is our home 10 months out of the year, so there are many kitchen supplies for you to utilize, as well as pantry space for food storage.) We also participate in Portland's composting program, and have recycling bins you are welcome to utilize during your stay. Plenty of seating with a dining room table for 8, as well as additional island seating for 4.
The living room on the main floor opens to the outside deck & backyard area.

In the second bedroom on this floor you'll find another queen bed, with a memory foam mattress, closet & dresser. This bedroom has a reading nook, ceiling fan and allows a glimpse of the ocean on Back Bay Cove.
Another full bathroom is located next to this bedroom & contains heated floors, a shower and bathtub.
We provide all linens & towels, as well as extra pillows and blankets.
DOWNSTAIRS:
The family room downstairs includes a 55" TV and access to Disney Plus & Hulu content. Other apps are available with your own sign-in. Tons of board games & reading materials for all ages throughout our home. Comfy couches in both living spaces. (Note: Guests will not be permitted to utilize the wood stove in the family room.)
The laundry room contains a large capacity washer & dryer, as well as a utility sink for your use.

Reviews:
"Our group thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! The house is spotless and so comfortable (we had 8 people). The neighborhood is quiet, and so close to the Old Port/local attractions. I would highly recommend this home as a place to stay if you’re exploring the Portland area!" -Rachael, July 2025
"We loved everything about staying at this location. It was close to the Back Cove for walking and beautiful views and we were able to walk for ice cream in the evening. The house is updated with a beautiful large kitchen and very comfortable rooms. Neighborhood was peaceful and a short drive to downtown Portland." -Rosalie, June 2025
"Visited Maine for the first time with kids and their grandparents coming from North Carolina. Arian's place was very clean, had comfortable bedding, kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans for us to prepare some of our meals. The grocery store was very close, we enjoyed the location, a short drive to the Old port, harbor and beautiful lighthouses. Arian also has a good collection of books to relax after an exhausting day. Highly recommend this place for large families/groups." -Nanda, July 2025

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Arian Kennedy
I love Maine & feel grateful for all the opportunities living here provides. My favorites include paddle boarding, bicycling, beach days, ice cream, camping, and adventuring in new places. I appreciate being able to give guests the opportunity to experience all that Maine offers throughout each season & special location!
Why they chose this property
Back Cove neighborhood allows for escape from the daily hustle to enjoy the ocean, and green outdoors, while being just a walk, or short drive, from award winning restaurants, the Old Port, concerts and other summer events!
What makes this property unique
We are teachers and live in this home during the school year, so the space is practical, comfortable and designed for quality family time. While we are in the heart of Portland, we also have a private fenced in backyard for enjoying down time in between summer adventuring.
