We had a wonderful stay! There was so much space, the beds were very comfortable. The house had all the amenities we needed for our weekend stay and more! The robes, flip flops and towels for the hot tub were so thoughtful. The drinking water bubblers, ice machine and room fans were extra touches that make our stay very comfortable and enjoyable!

Our group of 8 family members (adults) all agreed this was one of the best properties we’ve stayed at for our annual family reunion! Fast & easy communication helped tremendously with the questions and issues we came up with. The hot tub, 3 full bathrooms, easy access to downtown Portland, comfortable beds and bedding, were all essential features for our stay. We’d love to return in the future!!

Awesome spot for a large group with kids

A very comfortable place to stay with 7 adults and 2 babies. Kitchens well equipped and lots of space to spread out. We loved the hot tub and watching the 4th of July fireworks from our front yard. 30-min walk to Mackworth Island which we enjoyed.

About the host

Hosted by Meghan Phillips

Host profile image
I moved to Maine from New York 15 years ago. I love Maine and am happy to have an opportunity to share this special place with my guests.

Why they chose this property

My house is located at the junction of the Presumpscot River and Casco Bay. There are water views from nearly every room. It is a quick trip (5 minutes/2 miles) into the Old Port area of Portland. There are also great places just down the street -- ice cream, a juice bar, etc.-- an easy walk from the house.

What makes this property unique

My house has a lot of character. It is a craftsman home built over 100 years ago with many original details intact. There is a lot of room for guests to spread out in the multiple common areas, including the fenced patio and hot tub.
