In the summer, we provide beach towels, picnic basket, blankets, cooler, totes, backpack - anything you might need for a day’s outing. Beach passes are reasonably priced, but you’re welcome to borrow ours if we’re not using it.
We have a cat (just mentioning, in case you have allergies), but they’ll stay with us. If you see any of them hanging around the back door, please don’t let them out!
There are tons to do in the area, in all seasons. Visit the Maine visitors' websites​ for a start (we can't link from this page but they're easy to find online).
And ask us. We’re happy to help plan out your visit.

Deck, backyard. Parking in the driveway.
Interaction with guests
We live here year-round and work from home, so we’re usually around. If not on site, we’re available by text and/or phone. We’ll always try to meet and greet you at some point. However, we will respect your privacy and if you’re here to escape- retreat and be left alone, we will certainly honor that too.
A little bit about us: Sam is a native Mainer and Kathryn is a Canadian, from southern Ontario. Both of us lived in Arizona for a number of years before returning back East, where life is better. We found our perfect home after a three-year search, and are happy to help others discover why Maine is so special.
Sam is an alternative energy consultant, specializing in solar energy development. He loves to go out walking and exploring, and can direct you to interesting places on or off the beaten path. He used to work in the seafood industry, so he can tell you what to look for and what to know if you go to the fish/lobster market.
Kathryn is a jewelry designer and writer. Her contemporary-style work can be found in several museum shops and galleries in Arizona and in Maine. She is happy to be learning the lingo of Maine (you CAN get theah from heah!), and thinks everyone here is so friendly. And it’s true!
Other things to note
You'll use a shared back entrance but will have your own private space just six steps down to the lower level. You can close your doors for complete privacy. The entire bedroom, family room, second bedroom and bathroom are completely private and all yours. No bathroom sharing!

Summary: We really enjoyed our stay here and would recommend it to others looking for a flexible lodging arrangement near beaches and Portland. It's difficult to tell from the photos, but there are two private sleeping areas, and a common area between the two bedrooms. Everything was thoughtfully arranged in the space, and the hosts are very kind and pleasant. They are on site and available, but not intrusive in any way. We appreciated the convenience of making our own breakfast and being able to store cold drinks. Nice, quiet residential neighborhood.

Summary: Place was very nice and clean. Owners were great and communication was perfect. They gave great recommendations for places to eat and visit.
Vee R. Jul 30, 2022 09:16:17 AM
Summary: We enjoyed the space. Beds we’re comfortable. Our hosts live in the house upstairs, and were very welcoming. It was a perfect base location for our running around.
Kristy P. Jul 6, 2022 06:41:21 AM
Summary: This place was cute and clean. It was nice to have three beds in separate places to give my tweens some privacy from each other. The decor was eccentric but interesting-- it would be hard to have a toddler in the space though, as there are many things to break! We also thought the bathroom was very nice! Owners are great and attentive. Location is deep in the heart of a pretty but private neighborhood, relatively close to state parks with nice beaches and the Portland Head Light. There's a Keurig, microwave, toaster and small fridge but no real kitchen, so plan accordingly. Overall a great experience. Only thing missing is a kitchen!

Summary: The property is as advertised. The neighborhood was very quiet and out towards the ocean. The location was easy to navigate and get into Portland for shopping and food. There were nice beaches and lighthouses very nearby. We watched a lobsterman work in Dyer’s cove and spent time picking up beach treasures there as well. The hosts are great here and are a wealth of information. The space was as advertised. There was space to eat a breakfast and lunch, or make lunches to take with if you wanted. The host left a nice welcome basket with some fruit and things which was super nice . This area was so much nicer than staying down by the wharf in one of the big hotels. If you want quiet, great people and a great location- this is the place. There was absolutely no problem that the unit didn’t have air conditioning. The windows let in the cool ocean air and you can hear the birds singing as well. This would be a great place to bike from or go running. Lots of suitable roads for that.

Summary: Loved our stay in Cape Elizabeth where we enjoyed short walks to beautiful beaches. Great location and vicinity to both Portland and Biddeford (our other stops). The hosts are fantastic and went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable. Loved all the personal touches in the unit.
Mark T. Jul 20, 2021 11:02:57 AM
Summary: Had a wonderful stay the owners Sam and Kathrine were gracious and helpful. Very nice quiet relaxing stay.
Seth P. Jun 22, 2021 07:25:02 PM
Summary: This was the perfect spot to see Cape Elizabeth and southern Maine. The location is in a beautiful suburb, surrounded by scenic beaches, and Portland was a short 10 or 15 minute drive. Sam and his wife were friendly, welcoming and happy to answer all of questions. The amenities were great, and had everything we needed for a traveling family (including 10 month infant). We highly recommend, and we would love to come back.

Summary: My wife and I came for a long weekend and had a wonderful, relaxing time. The accommodations were clean and cozy. The hosts were very thoughtful and welcoming. Truly exceeded our expectations. Definitely recommend to others.
Deborah E. Nov 13, 2019 12:13:53 AM
Summary: This lower level apartment is both well-equipped and well-maintained. Well set off a pedestrian-friendly dead end road w/in moments of Cape Elizabeth's Fort Williams Park, beaches, and restaurants this accommodation offers a blend of privacy and easy accessibility to this seacoast area's many attractions. Visiting Portland w/in 15 minutes w/ out traveling on any major roads was a welcomed bonus! As the owner of a large vacation rental property business I regularly interact w/ hundreds of homeowners and can assure you that you will not find hosts more affable and accommodating than Kathryn and Sam.
