I really can't say enough about our stay at the Lighthouse at Chauncey Creek. Let's start with the home -- it was spacious, charming, updated, immaculately clean, and the owners had outfitted it with everything you could want. The access to Chauncey Creek was fantastic. You have your own spacious dock, paddleboards and kayaks, and the water was spectacular. It's an inlet off of the Atlantic, and always calm and easy to navigate (the tide can be strong though!). Another highlight was the ability to walk down to the famous Chauncey Creek restaurant any time you wanted. A super-casual, fun, spot. We took full advantage of the lobster, clam chowder and oysters. Also, you're only 10 minutes from downtown Portsmouth, a real plus. A final note about the owner, Gary. He is very responsive and completely non-intrusive. The perfect VRBO host. I almost hate to post this, because I worry the place will get too popular, but I could not recommend it more highly!

Our stay in Kittery was wonderful! The lighthouse was the perfect setting for our family's vacation to the ocean. The house was very clean upon arrival and was very well stocked! We did most of our own cooking over the course of the week and the kitchen was well equipped for all of our meals. The bathrooms and linen closets were also full of towels, sheets, and toiletries for our use. The house was very comfortable with lots of space for our group of 10 to spread out, relax, and spend time together. Steven was a wonderful host! He was very helpful and responsive!

We had a lovely stay on Chauncey Creek. The house was beautiful and perfect for our large family with a combination of kids and adults. We loved having access to the paddle boards and kayaks. The house is also just a short walk to the Chauncey Creek lobster house which we very much appreciated. We kept the windows open most of the day and had a pleasant breeze throughout the house. The owners were responsive and thoughtful. We would strongly recommend this house to anyone looking for a beautiful and relaxing Maine getaway!

Fantastic experience at this beautiful home. From the welcome snacks to the fully stocked everything (!) this was an exceptional week. The home overlooks Chauncey Creek (happy hour on the dock daily to enjoy the sunset) and is perfectly located for quick access to Portsmouth, Kittery, Ogunquit, and even Portland is not too far. Enjoyed many laughs in the comfort of this great space. We are all hikers, so loved the many stairs to keep us moving. Highly recommend!!

Stately and comfortable home with convenient elevator and waterfront recreation

Steven was good to work with. He was responsive and answered all our questions. The Lighthouse was as advertised and was in pristine condition on arrival. We were delighted to discover refreshments and snacks available before we had to make a grocery store run. The availability of toys and games, especially watercraft and bikes, was a very nice perk - something for everybody. Also, we had no shortage of towels or cooking equipment and utensils. The house itself is expansive, interesting and intricate. With so many levels and so many spaces, we had plenty of options to assemble as a group or to find space for quiet time. With background in design/build (non-residential), I found the selection of finish materials and the execution of finishes to be top-notch. All-in-all, my family enjoyed our stay to the max. Thank you Steven for a great week.

Three generations of our family had the most wonderful week at The Lighthouse! We loved the private dock and kayaked every day. The house was so comfortable and exceeded our expectations in every way. We appreciated the attention to detail–including the welcome groceries and treats! Perfect location for exploring other coastal towns too. We can't wait to come back!

Beautiful home and waterfront property!!
