About this house rental

Sweeping Ocean Views from Three Suites, Private Swimming Cove and Dock

Gather your family and friends for an authentic Maine vacation to remember. This gorgeous country home, filled with art, books, and games, sits on a very private 1,000+ feet of dramatic ocean frontage, surrounded by fields and forest. Three spacious suites, all with water views, provide the flexibility to accommodate an extended family or up to three couples. Our guests tell us they love the private spaces combined with large, open spaces for being together.

Sip morning coffee on a master bedroom balcony overlooking a quiet cove, lunch on a deck with a view to the Casco Bay Islands, enjoy evening cocktails on the screened-in porch, and gather around a firepit in the woods after your lobster dinner. Prepare your meals in the well-appointed kitchen with organic foods grown at Wolfe’s Neck Center for Agriculture & the Environment, just minutes down the road. Walk down the driveway to your private entrance to Wolfe’s Neck Woods State Park, with its five miles of oceanfront and wooded nature trails. Our guests also tell us they love the quiet, while just minutes from restaurants and shopping.

Ready to explore farther afield? Launch your kayak, for rent nearby, and explore the rocky coastline in waters protected by nearby islands while watching for bald eagles, seals and great blue heron. It’s an easy paddle to the charming village of South Freeport where you can enjoy a seaside lunch of lobsters and clams. Return to shore and take a refreshing dip off the spacious dock.

Enjoy shopping? Just a short drive into town you’ll find spectacular shopping in Freeport’s 200+ shops and L.L. Bean’s famous flagship store (it never closes!). Portland’s Museum of Art, fine restaurants, and charming Old Port shops are only a half-hour away.

INSIDE THE HOUSE:
The expansive, sun-drenched first floor features post-and-beam design, a stone fireplace in the sunken living room, puzzle and reading nooks, and a music room with piano - all with sweeping ocean views. The dining area with seating for ten opens to the well-appointed kitchen with bar and breakfast nook, so the cooks can be in on the party. Step up to the media room with 50” flat screen TV, fireplace, and comfortable seating for that rainy-day movie, or settle at the card table for a board game. The house is full of books and art.

GROUNDS:
The grounds that surround the house provide lawns for croquet, trails through a patch of woods on the water, and several gardens including one surrounding a small stone patio on the sea with a chaise for quiet reverie or a good book. A hammock by the cove offers the same. Croquet set, ladderball and cornhole lawn games provided, as well as a selection of toys for young children. Enjoy a true Maine experience: have a campfire in oceanfront fire pit overlooking the bay.

THREE PRIVATE SUITES:
The house offers separate three suites of bedrooms and bath, perfect for three couples who want privacy, or for a family and guests. There are two cribs and single beds for children.

Suite #1: This second-floor master suite features a dramatic bedroom with sweeping ocean views on two sides and woods and field on the third, a private balcony, and walk-in closet. The grand bathroom features a jetted tub with skylights and ocean views. Down the hall is a queen bedroom and second full bathroom.

Suite #2: The third-floor suite has a queen bed and a dramatic view to the private swimming cove below. There is a large bathroom with skylight, and an adjoining room with a single bed and crib.

Suite #3: Across the house and upstairs from the media room, this charming second-floor suite under the eves in part of the house built about 1800, features a large bedroom with king size bed and cozy sitting area, two smaller bedrooms (one with a queen bed and crib, the other a single bed), and a full bath.

Caretaker lives on premises in private apartment with separate entrance and parking. Town of Freeport registration number is STRR-2022-55.

We had a fabulous stay at this beautiful home. As described, plenty of room for everyone. The most well-equipped kitchen I have experienced, and my husband and I are both professional chefs so that is saying something. Hardly worth mentioning, but there was one issue with one of the upstairs bathrooms, there was very little water pressure in the shower, which eventually was resolved, but there also was no hot water to the shower. I am confident that this matter will be taken care of, as Jim, the caretaker, was very responsive to any issues. We are definitely going back to this property again.

The house was beautiful, welcoming, well stocked, and interesting. The views were unbelievable...the comfort of the beds and furniture was Maine cottage perfect. The walks in the woods, on the beach, and around the property were wonderful and the nearness of state park hiking trails greatly appreciated. We will return!

We are a group of 4 couples that have travelled together for over 20 years. This house was the best one we have stayed in, the location was fabulous being on the water, quiet, close enough to stores. The views are beyound words, so tranquil and calming. We spent so much time just staring from the decks, inside and the dock. The house is so well stocked you really do not need to bring anything but your personal items. It is cozy but spacious with lots of space to be together or sit on your own. Having the state park right there we could take walks easily. Hopefully we will return in the future.

The property is in an ideal location. You can walk to the adjacent State Park for a hike, or go down to the private dock to enjoy the view. The host was very responsive, as was the caretaker of the property. The house has all of the amenities that you need to make it feel like home. Highly recommend this property for families.

We had a fantastic multigenerational family Thanksgiving here! House is spacious, cozy and filled with wonderful books, music, games and everything you need to cook up a feast. The views are magical and the surrounding trails at Wolfe’s Neck are an added bonus.

This immaculate and spacious home in the woods was perfect for our family getaway with kids and grandkids. It was evident the owners cared about the experience as the home was well stocked with materials, games, books, appliances and more as well as clear instructions about how to use everything. This is our second time renting this property and we intend to be back next year.

Fantastic views! Enjoyed the yard and trails that lead to the fire pit. Property was very clean and had so many rooms! Kitchen had everything we needed. Baby gates and high chair were helpful with our 20-month old toddler. Can’t say enough good things about this place! We wish we’d had more time there!

Our eight day stay at Aldrich point was everything we hoped it to be. The home was perfect for six adults. We spent so much time outside in the various sitting areas and around the fire pit at night. The house is beautiful and Aldrich point is stunning. Everything you could possibly want in the kitchen is provided. It’s a perfect location for day sightseeing. The caretaker Jim DeGranpre is truly a gem. I had several conversations with him that were always productive concerning the area. Maine is a beautiful state in every direction you go. We would definitely return to this beautiful home and area and plan on doing so!
