About the host

Hosted by Lisa Desmarais

Host profile image
We've owned this home ever since our daughters were toddlers, and have enjoyed creating memories of our time together - from hiking beautiful trails, walking the frozen tidal flats at Skaket Beach during the winter, riding on the Bike Trail, and so much more. We hope that our guests also create their own special and cherished memories while staying at our home!

Why they chose this property

Our family has owned this home ever since it was built over 45 years ago. There's nothing like breathing in the fresh salty ocean air and listening to the birds while relaxing on our back porch. I love how we can walk to the beach, walk to the bike path, and also walk into town if we choose. And the quiet location of our small dead end street is perfect for privacy!

What makes this property unique

Our home is carefree, no fuss, and extremely homey. I love the formica kitchen countertops from my childhood where many ice cream sundaes were made. I love the vintage stove that's still putting out home cooked meals. I love how you can hang out in any room and it's comfortable and cozy. Our home is well-used and well-loved, and is suited for families and friends of any age. It's well cared for and clean, and stocked with plenty of amenities you didn't know you needed!
