This is the second time we have stayed at this property and the 4 time with this host. It never disappoints. Plenty of comfortable room for our family to enjoy just being together. See you next year!

Our family has been coming to the Maine shore for over 40 years and this beautifully renovated beach house was one of the most outstanding spots we have ever stayed in. Situated just a few blocks from the beach (and an easy walk) and right on the marsh, we enjoyed walks, sunsets, and for the new parents in our family, a few sunrises as well. We appreciated the two sets of washers and dryers, the well stocked kitchen, and the great back deck and back yard. The house also had plenty of beach chairs and carts for us to use, as well as towels and the linens. We never had any issues with the house once we arrived, but in advance the owner was easy to connect with and answered all of our questions promptly. We can't wait to return to this terrific Maine getaway.

We all love the ocean and our location made for easy access to the beach. The house was roomy and everyone had a great time. The cottage ticked off all our needs. An outdoor shower and shed for bikes would make it perfect. Drew was responsive to our needs. We made lovely memories for our extended family.off all our needsf

We had a great week at this house, the location and spaces were perfect for our two growing families. The house could use a good restocking of basic items like kitchen utensils, Pots and pans, and baking sheets, some of which were unusable. Made it a little hard to cook for 10 people but not the end of the world. Some issues with the TVs but we got them to work enough so we could watch the Olympics.
With that said we thoroughly enjoyed the house and the property and it did not bother us too much. The bedrooms were pretty nice and the location was great as it was a 5 minute walk to the beach.

This house was PERFECT! We are a family of 15 (3 generations). The bedrooms were great; mattresses comfortable; hangars; bureaus; hooks; closet space all more than adequate. Bathrooms are bright, clean with updated showers & fixtures. Kitchen too was well-stocked with good size refrigerator for 15 people. Towels, sheets all in good shape. Lots of beach chairs, carts for hauling to beach - plenty of sand toys & games. Easy walk to a lovely beach. Great deck and big yard. I can’t say enough about this property. We have rented all over the country so we know VRBOs and it is obvious this owner cares about his property and the comfort of his guests. Thank you Drew!

Nice well-appointed house in a great location. Our family enjoyed being steps from the beach, watching birds in the marsh, night time fires, and cooking in the lovely well-appointed kitchen. Perfect for a three-generation family get together. Thank you for a lovely stay at Pine Point.

Nice renovated, older home with updates and plenty of room for our family. Great residential location only a few blocks from the beach and a few bars/restaurants. Kitchen is well stocked with the necessary tools & equipment and we appreciated the leave behinds (spices, condiments, bag of ice and paper towels, etc.)
Drew was attentive and good to work with. We loved the residential beach neighborhood and its proximity to Portland (20 min)

Everything was advertised. Great location, 6 bedrooms and 4 baths for the 10 adults staying. Everything was clean, deck was really great as it accommodated our large gathering
5.0
Our family of 10 (6 adults, 4 kids…2 dogs) really enjoyed our stay in this spacious house. Everything was clean and the kitchen was well-equipped. The house is comfortably decorated. Plenty of bedrooms and we didn’t even need to use one of the bedrooms. The dinner table had seating for 8, but we squeezed in 10. With small kids we really appreciated the downstairs family room where adults could gather while kids were sleeping (no bedrooms above this family room). There were renters in the adjoining house, but they were considerate and not loud. The backyard bugs were tough at times, but so were the flies at the beach (probably due to the unusual amount of rain the New England region has had over the past few weeks). With a breeze the bugs were not much of a problem. The home is just a short walk to the beach, which is a great beach for kids and adults. Highly recommended.

House was large enough to accomodate one family of 6 and one of 5 with room to spare! Accessible to beaches and kids' amusement park. Beautiful back yard & view over the marsh especially at sunset. Do remember to bring bug spray.

My family enjoyed the beautiful marsh views during our stay at this lovely property. This spacious house more than accommodated our needs. Everything was clean, beautifully decorated, and well-equipped with linens, towels and kitchenware. The home is just a short walk to the beach and restaurants, and is perfect location for other nearby sights. We hope to return next year!

We stayed in the house for a wonderful week to celebrate a family milestone. Overall our stay was wonderful. The dinner table was big enough for all eight of us, both living rooms are nice and comfy, and the bedrooms and bathrooms were nicely remodeled.
There were a few small issues that we noticed but it didn’t effect our stay. Some kind of loud pump in the basement ran a lot during our first couple of days, which kept my parents up at night (they slept on the first floor). The toilet paper holder in the third floor bathroom wouldn’t hold the roll, it kept sliding down. Some of the non-stick pots in the kitchen were all scratched, so we couldn’t use them. We couldn’t get the middle burner on the stove to work, no instructions were around and it wouldn’t light. The grill didn’t seem clean, so we put down foil before we grilled.
Again, overall it was great - these are just things we noticed that could use improvement. I would definitely recommend this house to anyone looking to spend some relaxing time in Pine Point.

We absolutely loved this house. Spacious. Nice rooms. Near the beach and not far from Portland. It’s the ideal spot. A great choice for any large family or group

We had a lovely time cooking a large Thanksgiving dinner for friends and family! The large oven has some issues (a loose knob, the oven door doesn’t stay tightly closed), but everything worked. The location is gorgeous, and the beds are incredibly comfortable. We’re already thinking about coming back next year!
5.0
Perfect place for a big group of extended family. Great outdoor space to watch the sunset, eat meals, enjoy your morning coffee, etc. Back yard fire pit was the perfect way to end each day. Lots of space outside for kids to run around, play corn hole, bad mitten, and get their energy out. Easy walking access to the beach, lobster rolls, small market, gift shops, etc. Safe, quiet, and ideal spot for a family vacation in Maine. Would 100% return!

Perfect family vacation
We loved this property! There was plenty of room for everyone. The back yard and patio were perfect for us. The location was great, close enough to the Pier but far enough away to be very quiet. Beach only a short walk away. The views of the marsh and sunsets were stunning. We will definitely be back.

Great location!
I was given the wrong info to get into the home however Drew resolved that with a quick phone call. The location for this property was great. Overall everything for the trip was great. Though the house sleeps 16, I definitely wouldn’t go over 10 people. We had 5 adults plus kids (16, 14, 11, 8, 5) and we definitely felt like we were stepping over each other a lot. We also couldn’t eat together because the table sat 8 and that was very tight.

Excellent place to stay

Great Getaway
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The marsh views were beautiful no matter the weather. The rental was spacious for 7 adults, but would have been a tight fit if all of our group of 10 had come, as 4 of the sleeping spaces are bunk beds in one room. The kitchen was well stocked with plenty of dishes, flatware, and utensils. There were renters in the adjoining space, but sound was never a problem. It was clean and nicely furnished. Beds were comfortable. The location is terrific, and Drew was very helpful.

Big house near beach, beware of bugs
House is very comfortable and modern enough. Be aware you share a driveway with another attached house. The location is not as remote and relaxing as it may appear in photos. House has 6 true bedrooms, including a beautiful master suite and some bunk beds. A few small issues we had were resolved quickly by the owner. Beach and many restaurants within a 5 minute walk. Kitchen has name brand quality appliances and bbq. We had terrible bugs that made the backyard inhabitable but that may have just been the time of year.

Overall a good stay
Overall a nice place and great location.
Pros- close to beach and easy walk. Few nice seafood places within walking distance. Its on a pretty marsh but bugs were insane. Master bedroom and bath were very nice. Nice deck and firepit that we used.
Cons - not the cleanest rental we have been in. Garbage wasn’t taken out from previous renters so had to deal with overflowing containers all week. Also the couches were terrible and only 2 of the 5 or so tvs worked with Roku which made it very difficult with kids. Carpets weren’t that clean.
Overall was nice but for the price we paid, id expect it to be cleaner.

Wonderful relaxing location
For a family reunion when folks are “working from home”, “going to school” and just chilling out. There are many rooms where you can “hide” or socialize.
Typical beach home where doors do not always close properly and who cares!
Absolutely stunning master suite albeit on third floor with steep stairs. Worth the effort!
Nice backyard with fire pit, corn hole game and beautiful view of the marshes and sunsets.
Very nicely decorated and conducive to pets.
Thanks Drew for a wonderful vacation.

Mini Family Reunion
We had 3 families, one with 2 little children. for a total of eight people. The house was plenty big for all of us, and very child friendly. Location was great...only a 5 minute walk to the beach. The third floor master suite was wonderful.
I did not give a "5" overall rating because the cleaning was OK, but with what I felt was a significant cleaning fee, my expectation level goes up, and it didn't meet that standard. There were cleanliness issues in the first floor bedroom, and two of the three bathroom hand soap dispensers were VERY low, and we couldn't find any refills. Also, two glasses in the pantry were cracked...glad we saw that before using them.
We also did not see any hand towels for the bathroom, and that would have been handy.
But, overall, a very nice property.

Pine Point Gem!
Remarkable property, with an incredible view of the Scarborough Marsh! Enjoyed coffee every morning in what we called the Sun Room and/or adjoining deck, overlooking this expansive view, lit up by the morning sunrise, and incredible sunsets. This home was very comfortable for my family, totaling eight people and two dogs (a German Shepherd and a Bernadoodle), visiting the area for a graduation. The home was clean and well kept, and Drew was very responsive. We enjoyed the quiet neighborhood of Pine Point, with a short walk to the beach and area restaurants. We look forward to renting this property again in the future!

Great Family Reunion
We enjoyed staying in this well-appointed house. Family room overlooking the marsh with gas fireplace was great. Kitchen was fully equipped. House was clean where it mattered but dusty after a long winter. It’s a short walk to the beach. I would book it again.

Quiet Fall getaway
Property was close to ocean. The kitchen has all the resources needed and high end appliances but it is unorganized with all the drawers just filled with utensils etc. Cupboards are the same.
Definitely a busy beach house . Bed was comfortable and bedding was very nice.
Most of town was closed for the season but our stay was peaceful and the fall foliage was lovely.
