The house was very accommodating for our large group of 12. We absolutely loved sitting out on the deck, which was well furnished and had breathtaking views all around

The house is beautiful, comfortable and was pristine when we checked in. Decks and screened porch are wonderful. The kids loved the 3rd floor bedroom space, and it was fabulous being so close to Popham Beach. Definitely recommend. Kitchen on 2nd floor ... so have some strong helpers to bring in groceries ;)

The is house is very quirky, but the living room and decks have amazing views. The bedroom with 6 beds has a ladder to it and not a full staircase. I had communicated in writing with Vacasa about this and they responded that it was a full staircase. We did not learn of the issue until we arrived at which point it was too late to make other lodging arrangements. Additionally, we had a maintenance issue that resulted in rain blowing into the living room and Vacasa would not address that with me either. The kitchen is old - the cooktop was rusted and all of the plates, cookware, etc. were very dirty so we had to wash everything that we used. The grill was very nice, though. I would also recommend an awd vehicle at a minimum as the driveway is dirt and narrow, and very steep inclines. I used a mid-size cadillac suv and my tires were slipping. I have never written a bad review of a home before but Vacasa has really fallen short with their customer service and the cleanliness and maintenance of this property.

Online pictures are stunning and indeed the location has incredible views, however the current condition of the home doesn't match the photos. For the high price of about $600/night (including fees) we expected a clean home condition. Sadly, here is a list I must report so others aren't deceived. 1. Cleanliness Issues- initially the place looked sort of clean, but inspection under all the beds and furniture revealed filthy conditions, lots of dust and trash including an old baby diaper! The carpets had food under them, and on the stairway was loose carpet that could have caused a terrible fall. Dishes in the cabinet that were dirty, food present under the living room cushions, and indeed the living room sofa was just dirty overall. The living room carpet was all folded and loose making a tripping hazard. Kitchen area rug had food underneath and sharp toothpicks embedded in the top. 2. TV's were essentially unusable, the cable didn't work at all, and the streaming services didn't come on until the last day. 3. For whatever reason the washing machine leaked all over the bathroom floor, and despite new units being installed still worked intermittently as the mixing valve on the wall wouldn't work right. (by the way, that mixing valve is still leaking slowly) 4. Many broken windows in great room that no longer open and some of which are missing screens. 5. Heating system seemed to have a mind of its own. Some rooms very warm, and others including Master bed and bath had no heat controls at all. The second bath was cold most of the time, and the thermostat in there didn't seem to work. 6. Fan in Master bedroom worked full blast and was not able to be turned off. That along with the lack of heat made that room quite chilly most of the time. 7. Three tiny bars of soap for 5 nights? Rough ill fitting sheets for extra bedrooms. We expected better. We have rented vacation homes all over the country and so I think we are quite aware of what is to be expected, especially at this price point. Both couples that stayed here have rented homes ourselves and wouldn't dare make available to the public such inferior/poorly maintained lodgings. In all the years we have rented I have never felt the necessity to generate a review such as this, but I feel that others should be adequately forewarned and feel we are entitled to a partial refund of rental rates for the hassle factors involved.

Pros: View is *spectacular* and house is private. Cons: house needs a deep clean and the upstairs fourth bedroom with 2 bunk beds is accessed by a ladder in a closet. Would not be suitable for your kids or anyone with mobility issues.

what a gorgeous stay we had . The house is super fun and on a beautiful fall weekend, we were able to enjoy all the decks, the windows the light and the proximity to the beach. The house is unique and lovely, met our needs for space and was a great addition to a wonderful weekend in Maine.

The place was as pictured- isolated, quiet (wind and distant surf noises only), TREMENDOUS views. Stars!!! So many stars! The house is not brand new, but it is very comfortable and very accommodating if your goal is a quiet vacation. The nearby Popham beach was delightful. If you’re looking for nightlife or restaurant dining, I suggest staying in Portland. If you’re looking for amazing sunrises and quiet family time, this is it. Day excursions are an easy do, but not needed.

The location and views are wonderful, the house is spacious and we had a great time, but there were many things that weren't satisfactory, and two issues that were downright dangerous. The fireplace didn't work, living room rug had a lot of food crumbs and debris on it, kitchen was poor (many pans were dirty, not enough silverware for 12, kitchen drawers were filthy, there was no way to make ice--both refrigerator and stand-alone ice makers were broken, there were only 2 garbage bags, small kitchen table top was greasy and sticky). One of the refrigerators was plugged into an outlet that required the cord to run behind the sink where it was continually exposed to water. One of the beds was broken (we had to readjust slats so the mattress would stay on and the headboard was broken). Door handle to main deck fell off. Overall cleanliness of property was not thorough (piles of dust under/behind furniture). The biggest problem was that we didn't feel safe having anyone sleep upstairs, because there is NO SAFE EGRESS from that space. We had to have some people sleep on couches and on blow-up beds that we brought (thank goodness we brought them). The cushions for the outdoor furniture had all been left outside in the torrential rain so, we were very disappointed that we couldn't use the outdoor seating.
