Significant Details
Location: 5++
Kitchen Amenities: (not sure what to call dishes and stuff) 3.5?
((Kitchen itself is great, good social layout with lots of cupboard space, but expect to improvise a little if you plan to cook a lot. Bought and left / contributed some measuring cups, paper goods, for example. ))
The 6 person limit is correct, since the Deckhouse is not a large home. Using the extra 4th fold out bed is a crowd.
Cleanliness: 5
Regina is more involved than most other VRBO. It is a beloved family home, older and with some of it's own quirks she wants renters to know about. It's location means there are some extra rules and regs, but well worth it for the view of birds, fish jumping, clam diggers, and fisherman coming and going from the harbor. With stunning sunrises *and* sunsets from the deck.
Easy, short walk to the beach. Even if you just want to go for a quick walk, it's right there and not a production to come and go.
Definitely check out the beach during low tide, too. You can walk almost across the bay.
Higgins Beach is nearby with great waves, Holy Donut is good stuff, recommend The Bait Shed which is an easy walk for great food and experience. Portland is an easy trip.

Amazing views
Amazing views! Even a day of rain wasn’t an issue as you could sit back and enjoy the rain and lightning over the water. The property is very clean and everything you need is available. Regina, the host, is always on standby should you need anything or have any questions. The location is ideal as you get great views of the river and can walk to the beach in 2 min (300 yards away). Restaurants and shops are also very close. It’s a lot more quaint and relaxed than OOB. Great place for a vacation

Spectacular view
Located just steps from the water where 15 lobster boats are parked, you have a 180 degree view across the waterway. This quiet location helps you enjoy perfect views of Maine’s sunsets and the spectacular rise. Fresh lobsters are sold the same day they are caught just a half mile down the street. An excellent restaurant is in the same location, which is a lobster ship harbor on a street that ends at the waterway.

Perfect location!
The location of the house is perfect. Short walk to beautiful beach, close to kayaking, bird watching. The deck is wonderful with views over marsh and toward ocean. Kitchen is fully stocked, including lobster pot! Some needs for furniture upgrade such as beds. We didn’t use bedrooms downstairs, but beds there also soft and downstairs a bit dark for anther couple if splitting rental. We had a great week and would love to return!

Beautiful vistas
The panoramic views from inside through the many sliding glass doors and the wrap-around deck are fabulous. However, it was unfortunate that outdoor grilling was prohibited. The 3 homes whose decks we can see from the property all have a grill on their deck or patio. The neighbor abutting has a large fire pit that was blazing away one night. The landlord’s statement that the “Fire Codes” prohibit barbeques rings a bit false. Also, the absence of working blinds makes it get pretty hot inside when a strong breeze is absent.

Million dollar views
The location of this rental property is ideal. The ocean is 50 feet off the deck. 270deg views of Scarborough river. It’s a short walk to the beach and is very close to numerous restaurants. Our stay was very quiet with little more than the ocean and birds to listen to.
