Información de la propiedad

Everyone loves this completely renovated 2-bedroom cottage 'High View', with a view of the Saco inlet and is just a stone's throw from one of Maine's best rated beaches! It is located on a side street and next to the mouth of the Saco River!

We also have a 3 br home next door which we also rent if you need to accommodate multi families. See here vrbo #370618

Wonderfully decorated and renovated. Third property from the beach. New windows in 2015, completely resided the outside in 2016, painted the inside in May 2017, brand new flooring in 2018.

Hill's Beach is very quiet and just far enough to get away from all the tourist beaches. For the most part, the only people who frequent this area of beach are those who live on the street, approximately 10 houses. So the large, sandy beach is almost all yours!

With an outside shower, you can rinse off with warm water after coming up from the beach!

If you have kids (like our family), you will enjoy the peace of mind being on a side street with very little traffic and the large yard for the kids to run and play while they wait for you to go to the beach. Once on the beach you will find a majestic, panoramic view of islands and a jetty...It is fabulous!

Note: Linens are not provided. Signed rental agreement must be submitted after booking.

Thanks! Hope you get to enjoy Maine this summer!

Ideal property for small family

Great location. Steps from beach access. Quiet neighborhood. Property was ideal for a small family with kids. The ability to have a washer and dryer accessible was a big plus.

Beach Escape

Wonderful overall experience staying at this property. We had quite a few cloudy, foggy days during our stay. We were grateful this property had plenty of amenities to keep us comfortable as we spent more time inside than planned given the weather. We hope to return to this spot in the future to enjoy sunnier days!

Hills Beach is the perfect Maine spot

The location of this property is the real gem! A serene, private, quiet beach with warm water and perfect for children. The walk to the islands at low tide is a treat. Kayaking, boating and paddle boarding all near by. Downtown Biddeford and Saco have fun places to visit as well as delicious and reasonably priced restaurants. Day trips to York, Kennebunk and Portland are all easy if you want to explore more of Maine. Parking in driveway is great for 3-4 cars, plus a garage. Having air conditioning to sleep on the hit days was great also. The cottage however, was a bit of a disappointment. It was a small apartment over the garage that had a college dorm feel. We expected to bring our own linens, but everything else that was fabric was covered in grime. The beds only had stained mattress pads, which is unacceptable for $2300 per week. A proper mattress cover like what hotels offered would be more appropriate. Visible dirt on futon cover, potholders, scatter rugs and bedspreads seemed to take away from the newly installed linoleum floor and white painted walls. I spent the whole first day doing laundry to clean the above items. On a positive note, the washer and dryer worked well. Barely enough supplies in kitchen and leaking refrigerator made keeping food and meals tough to cook. Another downside is the use a time consuming charcoal grill - propane grill would have helped cook better meals, and more efficiently. I wanted to use the oven but it smelled like wet dog and was dirty inside. The cleaning woman was still there at 3:30 on our arrival day and was not even going to leave a roll of toilet paper for us. I am undecided about going back to this cottage since the location was amazing. Hopefully some improvements can be made in the future.

Wonderful, relaxing week at HighView!

Thank you for a great week! The location could not have been better-steps to the beach but easy drives to activities, restaurants, etc. The apartment was super clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. I loved being able to bring my dog-she enjoyed the beach,too! Thanks again!

Sea Escape Rocks!

This cozy cottage is in a perfect location, perfect for young children and pets. The property is clean and the owners feel like family, since this was our fourth year renting the cottage. I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing week. We love walking the beach, renting a kayak to explore the near islands and riding our bike to Fortune's Rock Beach. This is a vacation that your family will enjoy! Matt, Missy, Nate, Andy, & Willy Gingras

Maine Family Vacation

This was our first vacation in Maine and High View was a wonderful place to enjoy our week. It is just steps from the beach, as well as centrally located for short trips to Portland, Freeport and Kennebunk. We loved the uncrowned beach and the spectacular views of the Atlantic Ocean and the Saco River. Low tide here is nothing short of amazing-one has the ability to walk about a half mile into the ocean. The apartment is adorable and very comfortable. We also appreciated being able to bring our 2 dogs along on vacation. We will definitely return to Maine and to High View!

Perfect getaway

My husband and I, along with our Chihuahua, just spent two fantastic weeks at this Hills Beach home. My family and I have been renting vacation homes from Maine to Florida, and many states in-between, over the past 16 years. This is the first review I have ever felt compelled to write. The house was very clean, well-maintained, and quite comfortable. The kitchen had all you needed for making dinner at home. There is a very nice outdoor dining set along with a charcoal grill. The beach was beautiful and quiet. It was a great walk out to both Basket Island and Stage Island when the tide was out. There are a couple of markets near by for those quick coffee or ice cream runs. Not to mention all the wonderful local restaurants in the area. We met Jonathan and two of his boys when we first arrived. They were quite nice and very pleasant to speak with. Jonathan was very responsive to any questions that came up both before and during our stay. Jonathan also rents out a three bedroom house right next door on the same property. My sister, mother, and nephew stayed there during these same two weeks. It was wonderful having them right next door. I can same the same great things about that house as well. We have already decided that we will be renting these same two houses again next year....I'd better hurry up and get that set up before the weeks we want get booked. Kathy, John, and Milo (the Chihuahua!)

The Cozy Cottage

My husband and I loved this cottage. Our boys, one and four loved exploring the ocean too. My son said, "My favorite part was watching fireworks from the beach!" We loved walking the beach and collecting shells, too. Our labradoodle enjoyed vacationing with us and was able to swim and walk the beach in the morning and evening. Great location and it really is a short walk to the beach!! We will definitely return:-) Thanks for renting out your cozy cottage!!

Great Maine cottage steps from beach

I would highly recommend this property for families with children of any age. It's even a perfect getaway for adults. We've been renting at Hills Beach since 2001, when we would bring our baby. There is no surf at Hills Beach so it's perfect for toddlers and young children. It's also a perfect, quiet spot for adults to relax. The only people on the this part of the beach are those staying in the few houses on the street so it's never crowded. Now that my children are teenagers, they still love going to Hills Beach and visiting the other attractions in the area. This cottage was perfect for our family of four. It's a plus that the owner allows pets, so we don't have to board our dog. We had rented other houses directly on the beach but chose this cottage on a side street a couple of years ago so we could bring our dog. It's only a couple houses away from the path to the beach so you can go back and forth to the house easily. We'll be renting this cottage again this summer. The house has all the accommodations you would need and plenty of room for 4-6 people. There's also an outdoor shower so you can rinse the sand off before going inside. It's close to Kennebunkport, Portland, Old Orchard Beach, and other tourist attractions.

Great home in a peaceful beach community

My family stayed at High View for a week in July. We have been going up to Maine for years, but this year needed to find a new home that fit our needs (i.e. an 8 month old baby and a 80lb golden retriever). Stakes were high and our wish list was long. I'm so glad we took a chance on High View. Jonathan and Carrie were very responsive to our questions and made the booking process smooth. The home itself is great. Tastefully decorated, fully stocked with essentials for cooking, clean and bonus...baby proofed! It's located just steps to the beach, which is essentially private to the street. Low tide is incredible - you can literally walk to the nearby islands and explore. It's the perfect home if you have very young kids or older family members, as you can come and go from the beach as you please without having to pack everything up. The area itself is just beyond UNE, filled with lovely beach homes & cottages. The area even made for very serene and picturesque morning jogs before we hit the beach. All in all, it met our expectations and more. We hope to return next year!

Great Location! Nice place.

My family had a wonderful stay in this rental. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the beach. My 2 kids and 2 dogs loved walking down to the beach every morning to play and run around. The house itself was spacious and had a convenient layout. It was great having the kids in their own room so they could go to bed in a quiet space even if we stayed up later. The porch was great for relaxing in the evening and my kids ate breakfast out there each morning. Will definately consider for our vacation again next summer! Thank you.

I grew up at Hills Beach!

Por qué eligió esta propiedad

I (Jonathan) grew up down the road. I still have family is up there that lives down the street. Our family loves coming up for a couple weeks every summer. It's a great get-a- way. So peaceful. Not a lot of distractions which creates great family time!

The smell of salt in the air, playing on the beach, fishing, swimming, walking to the island and regrouping as a family are our highlights.
