This home was absolutely perfect for our family of 5. It is a short walk to the beach/pier/restaurants (1/2 mi), and there is beach gear on-site, including a wagon, umbrella, and chairs. The grocery store across the street was so convenient, as we cooked a few dinners in too. The home was very clean and had plenty of towels and blankets. I highly recommend this location for a family, as the laundry facilities, kid-friendly dishes, and kitchen amenities made it a home-away-from-home. It’s spacious and has most kitchen gadgets if you’re trying to save a bit and eat meals at home. There are plenty of activities to do in the area or closer to Portland, including a waterfall hike right down the road. The property is a duplex, but I will say I have 3 active, noisy boys and we didn’t have any complaints. In closing, the location of this rental is worth the money. It’s so close to the beach, and my kids enjoyed playing in the waves the most throughout our vacation in Maine! Mr. Chen is very prompt about answering any questions, and was an amazing host. Highly recommend to families or any ocean lovers :)
