Overall we had a great trip! We stayed for 3 nights with myself, my husband & our two kids (5&2). Communication with the rental company was great and they were always quick to answer questions. I do not know if this is standard for rentals these days, but having to pay to upgrade to early check in was off putting. The check in time is later than most at 4pm and you are asked to pay a fee based on wanting to check in 1 or 2 hours earlier.The house was clean with many amenities including a yard & fire pit. I will say we were suprised to see the proximity of the neighbors yard and that the back yard was not fully fenced in, allowing full access to the neighbors lawn. In my opinion you cannot tell this is the case from the photos. A consideration for those with small children - the house is also on a much busier road than I had anticipated. With the yard not being closed in and the house sitting so close to the busy road, this did make us uneasy with young kids who can open doors with traditional locks. I would advise bringing a travel safety lock for doors as well as a baby gate for the stairs. You cannot beat the proximity to the beach and easy access to Portland & OOB. The bedding was comfortable & clean with ample towels provided. The kitchen was well stocked. The only bathroom is on the first floor which is tricky at night with young kids. The home was decorated nicely with a nautical charm. Our kids had a blast & we made great memories!
