NEW LISTING ☼ Unique Oceanfront Home. Separate boat rental available.
Panoramic Oceanfront and island view direct sunrise. Nature preserves and hiking trail next door and nearby. Away from tourist traffic but convenient to restaurants, sailing club, shopping, etc.
Home was built in 2006. Immaculate with new furniture. Unique home with 36 windows throughout capitalizing on view from nearly every room.
Second floor has master bedroom and bath suite with tub and upstairs sitting area. Incredible views. Queen Sleeper in room downstairs with half bath. Third single bed convertible couch sleeping area. Oceanfront patio with gas grill connected to house propane tank.
Home receives Sebago Bay water from Portland which is excellent during warm weather. Refrigerated water cooler and water supplied. During the Winter/ cold months house is supplied with well water. It is salty and quite good for bathing. Too salty for drinking but entirely safe.
Peaks Island is one of dozens of Island situated in Casco Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. It is the most accessible to Portland and the only one served with the Car Ferry. We believe it is one of the most beautify and definitely the most livable and convenient to Portland. Ferries run from Portland about every hour from approximately 6 a.m. to nearly midnight. There are hourly car ferries 7 days a week. The schedule varies day to day and depending on the month. The Ferry ride is extremely scenic and only 15 minutes on the water.
To reach the home take the car ferry with your vehicle or without. There is a very reliable Taxi service for 3 dollars a person to the house which meets every Ferry. You will have a scenic 2 mile drive to the property around Seashore Drive. Some like to rent a golf cart near the Ferry dock. Bicycles rentals are available near the dock. There are two for your use at the house as well.
The Casco Bay Ferry schedule is always posted on the Internet. Please call us whenever you need logitical or any further information.
Just to note. There are two standard Nest outside security cameras on the property viewing the Ocean conditions and the Street coming in. One is above the front door and the other, the oceanside sliding door. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.
From the third week of October through the third week of May the city switches the water to well water. During this time dishes have to be manually washed with provided filtered water to avoid saltwater residue.

Loved the house & views were more than exceptional!! My husband & I decided not to tour outside the island because of those magnificent views. The house is well appointed with everything we needed. Definitely will be returning.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful property. The view and the crashing ocean waves were stunning and so tranquil. The home was very clean and comfortable. Would love to go back to enjoy again!
The property exceeded our expectations - such a beautiful spot, loved falling asleep to the sounds of the waves crashing against the rocks! Place was very clean & we'll appointed - had everything we needed for our stay!
Such a stunning setting. Beautiful home right at the ocean. This home is truly a bright spot on the island of Peaks. We lounged in the sun on the back lawn looking out across a beautiful ocean.
The interior is fresh and the huge windows proved over and over again to draw to the ocean.
Maximum Refreshing Experience.
We loved our stay at Ocean Spray Rd, this house is beautiful and cosy, ( we stayed in late Autumn ) is is so well stocked, with every possible need met. From a fantastic range of hair care and skincare products, if I’d forgotten my own, to plentiful filtered water for our use. I just can’t find enough words to explain how perfect it is here, an absolute idyll, away from the hustle and bustle of the big city, ( we started our journey in NYC, after travelling out from the UK )
We didn’t leave the island during our 4 night stay, with the views and the house being quite enough for our needs.
Book with Nikki for a wonderful vacation experience. Easy to access the property, and great communication should you need any help.
Great views. Great vacation on Peaks Island, Maine. Highly recommend. Highly recommend house we stayed at. Owner very accommodating and easy to contact.
We had a short mishap after check-in, however, Nikki quickly fixed the situation. The location of the property is breathtaking. Wonderful home to stay, and we would visit again.
Everything was perfect: location, comfort and amenities.
The view are breath taking, access to to small strip of beach down the road for swimming, great bikes and outdoor chairs (super comfortable), ample seating areas, well stocked kitchen (I loved the tiny spoons and crushed ice) and even a washer and dryer. We look forward to returning.
From the moment you walk in, the view from the large picture window takes your breath away! The cool ocean breeze and sound of the ocean crashing on the rocks lull you to sleep at night. Clean, comfortable with all the amenities you need. Definitely recommend!
We enjoyed it so much -- the comfortable beds, the views... we decided to come back next year! The views are really unique and special; and made it really hard to leave to explore Peak's Island (which we also did do). The house is well-appointed. Thanks for the hospitality.
The house was amazing, the pictures and description didn’t do it justice. The manager Nikki was also great, anything we need or had a question about was answered in minutes. We will be making this a yearly trip because we had such an amazing time. Have and would recommend to anyone
Best spot on the back shore! Views from every room in the house! One of the few properties that is on the ocean side of the street on the backshore. I happened to be up at 4:30am for the most beautiful sunrise. Super clean, and has everything you need for your stay on Peaks. We will absolutely be back again.
Perfect anniversary vacation property. Our 25th and all was amazing! Quaint sleepy town island. Extremely nice people. All of the conveniences you need on island. Just an outstanding trip all around! Would highly recommend for that quiet get away. my wife actually cried when we had to leave. That should say it all.
We are a local family Looking for a quick close to home Maine summer getaway. This property was absolutely perfect and exactly what we are looking for. The location is amazing in the house was very clean and well-equipped. The views of the sunrises in the morning from the bedroom and living room windows are breathtaking! Will definitely come back for another visit… Nikki was great to work with and responded to communications very quickly and answered any questions that we had.
The views on three sides have tidal ocean water splashing over the rocks of Maine. Daily walks and bike rides around the perfect island loop. Hosts were great communicators and easy to work with. House was spotless and had every modern touch. We rented a golf cart too which was great for running to the ferry for dinner off island a few times. We loved the house and will look forward to returning.
The house if filled with windows and light. The house faces the Atlantic and the scenery out the back window is an perfect for any ocean lover. The home is well equipped including bluetooth bathroom mirrors and speakers throughout. It was hard to leave.

About the host
Hosted by Nikki Sobel
We live and work most of the time in Atlanta, Georgia. The home has a great local caretaker readily available who lives on the Island.
Why they chose this property
The most unique and beautiful oceanfront home we ever found. We bought it immediately. We have traveled extensively and search for an oceanfront home for more than 25 years.
What makes this property unique
Unbelievable oceanfront location. Unique sunrises and sunsets everyday.
The house has hard wood floors except the kitchen and bathrooms. The kitchen has a new venting microwave, dishwasher, water filter system and cooler.
The house is furnished with new furniture from West Elm and a local hand crafted Maine manufactured company.
Master bed is a new king, electric and faces the ocean. One pull out bed is a queen another a convertible couch. Dining room table and chairs are new and gorgeous. Everything is new. You can see the living room furniture a little bit one picture. You will find this is one of the nicest furnished rental homes on the island.
