A truly outstanding family vacation home. We had high expectations based on the photographs, description and reviews of this home. These expectations were actually exceeded because of the home, the property, and the manager and owner of the home. First of all, Shannon and Jeff went way beyond our expectations in terms of hospitality, responsiveness and making sure we were happy. As expected, the house was simply magnificent. The exterior and appearance was unique. and the inside spaces were spacious, clean, and actually lots of fun. For a family of cooks, the kitchens and Butler’s pantry were outstanding. The property was just terrific. The real surprise was the pool and surrounding landscaping, much larger than the pictures. The back lawn rolling out to the water was spectacular. 3 recommendations: eat at The Lobster Shack at Two Lights- 3 miles away. Eat at Luke’s in Portland. Go to Portland Lighthouse for 2 hours of walking, scenery and fun. On the last night, we lit the fire pit for marshmallows. Thanks Shannon and Jeff for a great experience.
