Ocean House: Stunning Oceanfront Views, Spectacular Sunrises Peaks Island, Maine

**2025 DATES WILL BE OPENED MID-TO-LATE JANUARY, 2025**

Ocean House: A Peaks Island (Portland, Maine) Oceanfront Haven

Perched at the cusp of the wide-open Atlantic, Ocean House on Peaks Island offers a picturesque retreat where the sea is an integral part of your stay. No obstructions in front—just the open street with a rocky beach where sunbathing, fishing, and dipping toes into the water become daily delights. And when you crave soft sands, the island's swimming beaches are just a short jaunt away. For more fun adventures, a quick ferry ride brings you into Portland with all of its rich cultural and culinary offerings.

Favorite Features at Ocean House:
→ Uninterrupted panoramic ocean views for that serene getaway, with relaxing privacy on the sought-after Backshore of the island.
→Glorious sunrises over the open ocean from almost every room in our East-facing house
→ Modern comforts including a full, updated kitchen, washer and dryer, contemporary decor, all clean linens supplied, and 2 Smart TVs to keep everyone entertained.
→ Inviting outdoor areas with a deck, porch, grill and firepit for outdoor dining and storytelling, with ocean views and breezes as the backdrop.
→ Steps away from a unique rocky shore for spontaneous seaside fun, exploring historic sites, biking, or renting one of Peaks Island's famous golf carts to tour the island.
→ A quick and fun ferry boat ride away from boutique shopping in Portland's Old Port or sophisticated dining at award-winning restaurants.

Culinary Delights in Our Kitchen:
→ Updated appliances, dishwasher, and a gas stove for the chef's ambitious recipes.
→ Tools and cookware for enjoying fresh Maine lobster and seafood.
→ Fully-stocked cookware and utensils for those family feasts.
→ Coffee and tea making options, including pour-over, to start your morning off with a hot brew.

Sleeping Spaces Crafted for Comfort:
→ Bedroom #1 (Main Level): Two twin beds for friends or children, echoing the nautical vibe.
→ Bedroom #2 (Main Level): A queen and twin bed arrangement to accommodate families or friends.
→ Bedroom #3 (Primary BR) (Upper Level): A queen bed with a window seat for dreamy ocean gazing and spectacular sunrises.
→ Great Room (Upper Level): A pull-out bed with upgraded Queen sofabed mattress with ocean views for an extra sleeping option.

Outdoor Living at Its Best:
→ Bask on the sun-laden deck or dine al fresco with the ocean as your backdrop. Enjoy s'mores or a local microbrew by the firepit in the evenings, with the ocean waves crashing in the background.
→ Explore the sandy beaches of Peaks Island for a traditional swim and sun experience, or rent a kayak to explore the island by sea.
→ Practice fishing for stripers, or searching for seaglass off of Whaleback rock, across the street the house.
→ Rent a golf cart or bicycles for breezy jaunts around the 4-mile circumference of the island.

Serene Ocean View Sanctuary
The main living area, a harmonious blend of function and form, welcomes you with its bright, open-concept layout. Unwind in a space that promises panoramic ocean views and is equipped with all the comforts of home, and a curated selection of books and board games for your leisure.

Cozy Upstairs Retreat with Kids Nook
The upstairs retreat of the Ocean House is a haven designed for leisure and play. This Great Room is a private area for relaxing and fun, featuring skylights that flood the space with natural light, views of the ocean, a game cabinet full of entertainment choices, and a kids nook with games, books and toys. Whether you're in the mood for board games, a round of cards, or simply losing yourself in a good book while enjoying the ocean breeze and sound of waves rolling in, this cozy enclave is tailored for your comfort and enjoyment.

Coastal Elegance: Updated Kitchen & Dining
Crafted for culinary enthusiasts and family gatherings alike, this well-appointed kitchen features modern appliances and ample counter space, all set against the soothing backdrop of ocean vistas. Whether you want to cook a traditional Maine lobster dinner, or enjoy some tasty take-out from the island restaurants or Portland's award-winning foodie scene or many microbreweries, you'll have what you need to enjoy! The adjacent dining area, featuring a versatile table that expands to seat eight, is a place where guests can savor meals and memories with an ocean view.

Sunlit Side Deck with Pristine Ocean Views
This charming side deck is a tranquil oasis where the gentle sea breeze and the soothing sound of the waves create a serene backdrop for dining or relaxing. Enjoy the warmth of the sun or dine al fresco while soaking in breathtaking views of the ocean. It's the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee or to unwind with a sunset dinner in the company of the island's natural splendor.

Enchanting Pocket Porch
The pocket porch offers a serene retreat where you can bask in the soft evening light with a glass of wine or revel in the morning tranquility and sunrises with a cup of fresh coffee. Outfitted with comfortable seating and the possibility of being enveloped by screening to keep bugs out, this charming nook is ideal for enjoying uninterrupted hours of relaxation, conversation, and ocean gazing.

Bathrooms: Fresh and Bright
The downstairs bathroom is adorned with maritime maps and modern fixtures, and includes a shower together with all of the essentials for a refreshing start to your day. Upstairs, the second bathroom offers generous space, a shower/tub combo, and rustic cabinetry, ensuring a comfortable and inviting atmosphere.

Surroundings: Nature's Embrace
Ocean House is nestled in the lush verdant Peaks Island's natural landscape. Here, the wild beauty of Maine is right at your doorstep. Out front, a grassy area invites you to engage in outdoor activities or simply enjoy the view. And while the rocky shoreline in front of the house may not feature the sandy stretches traditionally sought for swimming, it offers its own rugged charm. This unique coast is ideal for those who appreciate the sun's warmth on their skin, the thrill of exploring tidal pools, fishing off of Whaleback rock, hunting for jewel-like seaglass, or the simple joy of a seaside stroll or picnic on the rocks.

Experience Peaks Island
Located just across from Whaleback, a well-known natural landmark, and next to a unique WWII bunker, Ocean House situates you in a world of history and natural beauty. With easy access to Portland via a 15-minute ferry ride, explore the best of both worlds: the seclusion of island life and the vibrancy of city culture.

Ocean House isn't just a place to stay; it's where life's pace slows, and the simple joys are savored and beautiful memories are made. It's "Maine: The Way Life Should Be.”

Ocean House is amazing!!!

Our stay could not have been better! Sarah and Tom are amazing hosts - very communicative and every attention to detail has been made to make their place welcoming to guests. The house is amazing and easily accommodated our group. The backshore is my favorite place on Peaks and the location was perfect. Thank you so much for an amazing week!! Can’t wait to come back next summer!!

Super relaxing and comfortable place!

This was really a wonderful location on the shore with a beautiful 10+ view. We really hated to leave here and wanted to stay on another week or so! Good accommodations- the rooms are set up really nice with all the creature comforts of home, nice showers nice baths, nice size rooms. Kitchen is well stocked with everything you need for your stay. Third floor view is breathtaking and we really loved the books that were there and the games. Can’t say enough good things about the place. Hope to come back next year. ❤️

My perfect escape!

Although we arrived on Peaks Island in a crazy rain storm, we had the most incredible vacation ever!!The weather improved by morning and remained perfect for our stay! The home was by far the most well equipped place we have ever rented and I look forward to staying there again. The views are amazing and sunrises were spectacular! Sarah and Tom even made sure we had binoculars as well as a Telescope for day and night viewing in addition to all the amenities they provided for a Perfect vacation! Our proximity to Portland was so very easy and we were able to explore the city as well as dine out frequently. “Ocean House,”is where I’d love to return each summer. Thank you Sarah and Tom

SPECTACULAR VIEW

Sarah and Tom had everything and anything you might need. I could have left 4 bags behind. The location directly across from Whaleback Ledge and a rocky beach was perfect as we did not need to load the truck with gear and kiddos. Many windows makes the house light and airy. Back deck was huge with ample room for all to navigate without getting in each others way. Front porch had fantastic view of sunrise and sunsets. We had the ABSOLUTE BEST WEEK OF WEATHER THE ENTIRE SUMMER. The kids area was stocked beyond my imagination.....books games, arts and crafts, supplies for all projects and toys. Again I could have left 2 bags behind. Last but not least the huge spacious kitchen with all the tools of the trade. If I were a cook or baker I would of had a field day.....Julia Childs would be envious. We have stayed at 2 other places on Peaks Island and this had the best view and the best stocked home. I particularly liked Sarah's labelling as I too am an organized person. A repeat for us for sure but for two weeks next time. Maureen and Dan Goff New Gloucester, ME

Great End of August Vacation at Ocean House!

We feel very fortunate to have been able to spend the last week of August in Ocean House. The house is in a wonderful location on the back shore with AMAZING views of the Casco Bay! We've been to Peaks Island several times in the past and one of my kiddos' favorite pastimes is climbing on the rocks along the coast. The house's location across from Whaleback rock was absolutely perfect, and they climbed down and around the rocks every day of vacay! The house itself is immaculately kept and includes every possible thing you could need while on vacation all of which is thoughtfully labeled and easy to find. The layout was perfect for our extended family which included my husband's 80+ year old parents and our 2 young daughters. The grandparents and children took the first floor bedrooms which had easy access to the kitchen, living/dining room area and covered and open porches. Sarah, the host, was always available, responded quickly, and was SUPER helpful with any potential needs. We hope to be able to return to Ocean House for years to come!

A Memorable Family Vacation

Ocean House was the perfect family vacation house! I had quality time with my adult children sitting across the street on Whaleback watching the tides, walking across the island wildlife watching with my camera, exploring Portland and having a campfire under the stars. The house and views were beautiful. Sarah and Tom have thought of everything - if we didn't have what we needed, they had stocked it. And oh, how I'm going to miss listening to the ocean while laying in bed at night, and seeing the sun rising over the water when I awoke! Thank you Sarah and Tom! We are already planning our return.

Windows inoperable and Rain infiltrated house from the storm

Maintenance was lacking and needed. A bad storm hit the island when we arrived. Inoperable windows were open and water was streaming down the stairway to upstairs bedroom almost causing me to slip. Skylight was also leaking. Toilet seats were loose. Floors in some rooms were just painted underlayment.. no finished flooring, etc. Parking was limited to one car and backing up was difficult. On the plus side, the view was beautiful, but definitely not worth the rental cost! We contacted owner and received a full refund and left the next morning.

Perfect End to Summer

We could not have been happier with our stay. It was simply amazing to arrive to a house that was fully stocked especially with children's toys, games and all sort of other activities. With so many amazing views of the ocean, we felt very spoiled. Everything felt so clean as well, you can really tell the care that is put into the home when it’s not rented.

Beautiful property

We loved our week at Oceanhouse!! The house was perfect for our family of 8, plenty of room and the owners thought of everything for us to have a great trip. From games, puzzles and books to a fully stocked kitchen, wood for a fire, masks, beach towels and toys and a binder full of information on the island… it was just amazing. The location was beautiful. Sarah was extremely responsive and so kind to partner with. Thank you for an incredible week at Peaks!!

Om värden

Sarah är värd

Värdens profilbild
Raised in Maine, I had been coming to Peaks Island for years and dreaming of having our own getaway on this beautiful and special island. We truly love being able to help others enjoy the beauty and relaxation of Peaks and Maine by hosting at Ocean House, Peaks Island!

Varför värden valde detta boende

The spectacular ocean views on a peaceful Maine island but with quick, easy access to all that Portland has to offer is rare and wonderful. Also- the house is set back and elevated from the street, giving an excellent combination of exceptional, wide open views and privacy.

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

Next to a WW2 bunker and across from a rock formation know as "Whaleback" there is so much to see and explore right outside the door and throughout the island. Tours of the island and its historic forts, walks, running, biking, renting a golf cart to drive around the island, renting kayaks, horse rides, fishing off of Whaleback, lobster bakes and fresh seafood, seaglass and seashell hunting, and even an Umbrella cover museum, are all to be enjoyed without ever leaving the island!
