This house was amazing and the host was so friendly & amazing! Short walk to the beach and perfect yard for games with the family!! Looking forward to coming back again!
House was very clean, looked to be newer construction. Beds were very comfortable.
Short walk to a beach and short drive to a lighthouse. The kids loved hanging on the beach and exploring the rocks & tidepools.
Our family had a great stay at this lovely home. Everything was very clean and well stocked for our visit. Owner was very responsive and a pleasure to work with. Would stay here again!
This house was perfect for what we needed for our trip! The house was great and exactly as described online. The neighborhood was nice and it was also a close walk to the beach.
We just stayed this past weekend and we will definitely be booking here again! Great home to stay with family! Very close to long and short sands! Clean and well equipped with everything you need! Thanks for sharing your home with us!
Lovely accommodations perfect for us. We went to Portsmouth for most of our activities and it was super convenient. Very clean. Owner very responsive. Parking was the challenge as we had SUVs so it was tight for parking,she even looked up places around for us to find additional parking! good to go!! Thank you! Had Walmart deliver groceries which worked out well!
We enjoy this home so much we came back for our third stay!
This home is sunny, spacious and convenient to Long Sands (short walk), Short Sands, Nubble Light, Dunne’s Ice-cream, Perkins Cove, Marginal Way, restaurants and more…. The kitchen is well appointed making it easy to cook meals.
I highly recommend it. We’ll be back next year.
I booked this home for a long weekend with my family to attend my daughter's wedding. It was pefrect for our stay. Very clean, well laid out, nice neighborhood, lots of space. The kitchen had everything you would want to have in terms of cookware and dishes. I hosted a lobster and steamer dinner and had everything I needed for that. I highly recommend for your stay!
We enjoyed last year’s stay so much we came back again this year!
The home is spacious, sunny and spotlessly clean. We loved sitting on the deck to wind down in the evening and cooking dinner in the well appointed kitchen. The short distance to Long Sands beach combines a relaxing, quiet neighborhood with easy access to the beach, eliminating the complexity of parking.
The location was a quick drive to shopping at Short Sands Beach and downtown Portsmouth.
Kelly is a great hostess. She’s very responsive and a pleasure to work with.
We look forward to staying here again.
This property is beautiful and my family enjoyed our stay. However four days after checkout, I recieved a concerning message and incured additional charges. The fee is not the issue. I am more disheartened that my family would be accused of damaging property and leaving behind a mess that is not reflective of our experience in the home during our stay. We are a family of blue collar employees. My mother still works in the home of a family where she has served as caretaker and nanny for over 20 years. The ability to rent a home and spend a weekend up in Maine is a treat for our family and we treat that opportunity with the respect it deserves. I have never before felt so disrespected by unwarranted accusations. It is not in my nature to publicly air my concerns but in light of the world we live in today it is important that all voices have an opportunity to be heard.
Overall a beautiful property in a great location. Just a bad experience on the backend.
Comfortable, well appointed, spacious, great location
This bright, airy and spacious home provided a great setting for our beach get away. The combination of a quiet neighborhood and short walk to Long Sands beach was perfect. The kitchen had everything we needed for making meals. I’d stay here again in a heart beat.
Kelley was a great host and provided all the information we needed in a timely manner. There were many beds and bedrooms and we cooked many meals here while visiting the area. Overall an excellent experience and would recommend it to anyone traveling with family. Thank you!!
The house is clean, spacious and tastefully decorated. Sofas and beds were comfortable. Kitchen is fully equipped and modern. Loved the stove! It’s not too far from the beach. We knew we had to bring sheets and towels but we were there in April and could have used some more blankets.
The area was pretty, convierte to everything we needed. The place was spotless. The rooms and beds were cozy. We brought our own sheets as expected. Only criticism was no towels, I would have liked hand towels for after bathroom use. Thank you, we would stay here again.
Everything about the weekend was great, the house was extremely clean, and exactly as pictured. The beds were comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed.
Everyone really enjoyed our time there, and it was big enough to be comfortable even during a rainy Saturday with everyone in the house. It is under 20 minutes to downtown Portsmouth. Highly recommended!
It was a super find on VRBO. Excellent condition and very spacious. Beautifully decorated and spotless. We had a wonderful time and great location to the beach (walkable). Will be booking for next summer. I highly recommend this beautiful home to a beautiful location in Maine.
