The outside of the house is new yet inside still has that lovely old Maine summer house feel - which for us, is a perfect combination. All rooms (other than kitchen and bathroom) look out at the rocky Maine coast. Every bed in the house has an ocean view so, you fall asleep and wake up to the sound of waves crashing. There are two porches on either side of the house. Therefore, you can choose between sun and shade at any time of the day. The house is a short walking distance from one of Maine’s finest sandy beaches. The grown ups could take long walks on the beach, and the teens could go back and forth to the beach easily for boogie boarding and surfing. So far, we’ve stayed two years in a row and it is already our favorite part of the summer. It is a perfect place to spend time with the entire family. In the evenings, we sat by the fire or played board games around the kitchen table.
