Located on a private road, this idyllic three bedroom, two bath house features views of the ocean, fishing boats, Crescent Beach, and Richmond Island.
Crescent Beach State Park is just a few minutes stroll away, via a private path through nature preserve. The path opens a good distance from the park's main entrance, so you'll be sure to find the privacy you desire. At Crescent Beach, you'll find soft sand, a gentle tide, and rocky coast line at both ends. You'll also find walking/jogging trails along the shore and through the woods in both directions. Popular activities include swimming, kayaking, fishing, and wildlife viewing. Kayak rentals are available right on the beach, at the Snack Bar.
If you like, drive or bike along Scarborough Marsh toward Higgins Beach (5.0 mi. away), Scarborough Beach (6.1 mi.), or Ferry Beach (7.0 mi.). Explore the rocky coast of Two Lights State Park (1.7 mi.), or picnic next to Portland Headlight at Fort Williams (6 mi.). Kayaking at nearby Scarborough marsh is also popular, and rentals are available on site.
You can also visit nearby farms to select locally harvested seafood and locally grown produce, then barbecue on the deck while watching sail boats and other watercraft pass by. Or, leave the dinner prep to others: 4 star dining and other fine establishments are right around the corner (0.2-0.5 mi.).
And of course, Portland's Old Port and Downtown await just 12-15 minutes away. Named by Frommer's Travel Guides as one of twelve "surprising, thriving and emerging world travel destinations," Portland offers great food, pubs, shops, music, art, scenic cruises, and more!

Summary: Our stay was memorable and so enjoyable. There were 5 of us, 4 adults and 1 child. The location is in a nice little neighborhood, only steps from Crescent Beach. We could sit on our deck and see the ocean and sleep by the sounds of the waves. This property has so much to offer with three bedrooms, one of which is downstairs for this older stair challenged lady. It has three parking spots and a lovely fenced yard for the kids to play in. The cottage was very clean and the owner has it stocked with everything you might possibly need. The beds were incredibly comfortable with plenty of linens. This property has been totally updated with great furnishings. My son in law really got into fishing down at the beach. The owner was very responive and accommodating. We would definitley stay at this property again.

The property has beautiful ocean views and a fenced in yard with a lovely patio that is perfect for kids to run around. The home is clean, comfortable and well stocked with everything we needed for our family. Owner was very responsive and took pride in the guest experience. Portland is a short drive away! We would absolutely stay at this property again.

Summary: This was a great choice for our family during our trip to Portland. The location was great, close enough to Portland but far away so that the space was very spacious. The house is beautiful and in great condition, with a beautiful view. The owner is very helpful and responsive. My family all enjoyed staying there, I highly recommend it.

Summary: Steps from the ocean this well appointed house was a paradise for our family. The fenced in back yard was perfect for toddler grandson. With the beautiful flowers, all of us enjoyed great times on the deck grilling and enjoying the view. There is plenty of room for all ages to get a little privacy. You not only can walk to the beach, but also to a wonderful restaurant and ice cream shop. There is plenty to see in the area. We will go back again definitely!!!

Summary: We had a small family reunion, of sorts, with 3 families coming from all different parts of the U.S. What a wonderful surprise, when we pulled up to the house. It’s just as beautiful as the pictures. And they have done sooo many updates, to make the home clean, cozy and bright inside. This truly is a beautiful 2-story. The home is immaculate. The beds and bedding are so comfortable. The kitchen is well appointed so that you don’t need to bring anything but food. I actually brought wine glasses, just in case, there were none. Oh, I promise you, anything and everything you’d ever want to prepare a meal, and set up a table is there for your use. So appreciated that. And you can see the ocean from the dining table, the couch and the windows upstairs. Wish I could post pictures. It’s truly heaven. Crescent Beach is just a short walk down the street, and what a wonderful beach it is. You will find people walking and jogging every day. The Good Table Restaurant, just down the main street, was 'delish'. A must do! We want to buy the house…..that’s how much we loved it. I think that pretty much sums it up. You won’t be disappointed. Much thanks to the owners for making this a worry free trip. They are wonderful!
