About this property

Beachside Family Getaway! 3 Doors From Beach Access. Fantastic!!!!

Welcome to Sea Escape! Wonderfully decorated and renovated. Third house from the beach. Very spacious. It's never looked this good! New refinished wood flooring throughout in 2014. New windows in 2015. Resided the whole exterior in 2016. New floors, completely painted inside and out and updated bathrooms in 2019.

We have another rental for a multifamily getaway. See it here: vrbo #395829

CHECK OUT THE REVIEWS....

You will love this newly renovated cottage, 'Sea Escape'. It is so close to the ocean, the beach will feel like it's in your front yard. The beach is only stone's throw from the front door. Once on the beach you will find a majestic, panoramic view of 9 islands (one with a lighthouse), Saco River inlet with a jetty to climb on and fish from, etc. If you have a boat, bring it!

An outside shower is fun to use or just rinse the kids off...

Hill's Beach is very quiet and just far enough to get away from all the tourist beaches. For the most part, the only people who frequent this area of beach are those who live on the street, approximately 10 houses. So the large, sandy beach is almost all yours!

If you have kids (like our family), you will enjoy the peace of mind being on a side street with very little traffic and the large yard for the kids to run and play while they wait for the short walk to the beach.

It looks small from the outside, but it is over 1500 sq. feet. Completely furnished and renovated with washer/dryer. It is an all season 4 bedroom home, air conditioning and wood floors, fully applianced kitchen.

Note: Linens are not provided. Signed rental agreement must be submitted after booking.

Thanks! Hope you get to enjoy Maine this summer!

Amazing Place & So Much To Do!!!
What an absolutely amazing vacation!! There were 10 of us for a family reunion and had the best time making new memories. Everything from the planning, communication, booking, coordination, accommodations, amenities, location, property, neighbors, and the BEACH were nothing short of spectacular. We had everything we needed and there was plenty of room for everyone and a variety of things to do from beach time, games, spaces for afternoon naps, plenty of places to walk and jog. We will definitely be back!!!

Wonderful stay
We loved this house a lot. It really is bigger than the pictures show. The beds are comfortable. The sea is very close. The low tide allows magnificent long walks to the island. The neighborhood is quiet. communication with John was really easy. We loved everything. Thanks again!!

Wonderful house and perfect location.
This is our second year to vacation in this house. It felt like arriving home when we got there. Such a comfortable and spacious house. We loved being so close to the ocean and being able to walk the beach anytime we felt like it. Also, since it is a semi-private beach, we were often alone there. What a wonderful piece of heaven on earth.
