Vacation rentals with a kayak in Saco

Stayed at Bethany's place for a long weekend at the end of the season. The location is unbeatable, the house is situated on its own little peninsula in a stunning cove; it feels very private and has amazing views of the water. There's tons of outdoor space and seating, along with several kayaks. The house itself is clean, quiet, and peaceful, although it's definitely small--probably best for one or two people, or a couple with a small child. Access is down an unpaved road but Bethany's very clear instructions made it easy to find, and she was responsive to any questions we had. Harpswell abounds with areas to hike and explore, lots of good places to eat (though you will definitely need a car) and is less than an hour from Portland and only half an hour from Freeport.

Just got back from our weekend stay . Beautiful space that looked just like the photos. House was spotless. The house is located in a very peaceful and private area. Our family enjoyed the kayaks on the pond during the day and the fire pit on the deck at night . Very relaxing weekend .

My family was looking for a place this year to just get away, and Michael’s place was the perfect spot to do so. Close enough to the ocean and Portland, but far enough away to for some much needed R& R. Michael is an excellent host, and is very responsive to all messages. Thanks for everything!

This has been by far the nicest place we have stayed. Super clean and nicely decorated. Wonderful communication by the hosts. Perfect weekend getaway.

We had a great time. Got to kayak around the pond several times. The jet skis and other motor boats and the gravel place were a little loud at times. That was my only complaint.

We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful home. Lots of amenities and the hosts are very friendly and quick to respond to any questions. It was roomy for our family of 5 and the beds were really comfortable. I’d say it easily accommodates 6-7 people. If you are adventurous and don’t mind sleeping in a small loft or a basement setting you could fit 10-11.

Delightful Fall getaway. Open house design with gorgeous view of lake. Nice big yard with seating and fire-pit. VERY comfortable beds, and bathroom with 2 sinks! Kitchen had everything we needed - plus fruit and candy! Even the laundry room was beautiful! James was most thoughtful and responsive as our host. Recommend highly!

We loved this home! It was apparent that the house had been updated indoors with a fresh look, refreshed paint, new floors, new appliances . The outdoor canoes, paddle boats, paddle boards were enjoyed by all. If I could rate this location with a 10, I would. Kudos to this location and to Patricia as a host for an immensely enjoyable experience. This is a definite return location!

We stayed at the cottage for a little celebratory getaway. Although the weather only partially complied, we were amazed by the beautiful views that surrounded the cottage. We spent some time exploring the area and there are some spectacular little gems hidden throughout and around Windham. Maryellen and Bryan were so sweet and made sure to make this stay feel a little closer to home. Definitely a “don’t miss” property!

What an awesome airbnb! The views are stunning and surroundings couldn’t have been more peaceful. The cottage itself was exceptional and had everything I needed and more. Wish I could've stayed there longer! 10/10 would recommend this place to anyone!

Steve and Desni's Lakefront home was spectacular! The lakefront views were stunning. The house was as described and provided everything we needed for a wonderful family vacation. Was very clean and tidy upon arrival. Room layouts provided ample space for our group of 10 (could have fit a couple more comfortably) and included all the amenities for indoor and outdoor fun! Zero complaints or cons for renting their home. Would highly recommend it.

Lori was a wonderful host for our trip up to Maine. My girlfriend and I enjoyed doing yoga in the entrance room when it rained and a nice sunrise kayak trip out on the lake across the street. My in-laws stayed with us too and we all had great laughs together and enjoyed good food all weekend long.

Loved our time here! It’s about a 40 minute drive from Portland and then 5-10 from Brunswick. The neighborhood is quiet and perfect, exactly what we needed to relax! We loved coming back from Portland and grabbing dinner and gelato in Brunswick, such a nice way to unwind from a long day. Highly recommend and would love to stay here again :)

Tiny but beautiful cottage with walls of windows in the living room and bedroom overlooking the salt marsh. It was like staying on a boat! Great kitchen, comfortable bed and cozy fireplace. Beautiful in the winter.

We were looking for a quiet place near the water to relax and unwind. Marina's place was perfect! We enjoyed kayaking, and great views of the lake whether reading on the deck or playing boardgames in the dining room on a rainy day. We'd definitely stay here again.

This riverside retreat was the perfect weekend getaway! It was so peaceful and we felt right at home. It was a bit cozier than the pictures made it seem but it was perfect for two of us and a big dog. Everything was clean and it was easy to find things such as extra towels and plates. It was raining almost the whole weekend but there was still so much for us to do between games, the game shed, and the screened in portion of the shed where we could sit, watch the river, and listen to the rain. We hope to go back again someday!

We had the absolute best time at MJ’s place, highly recommend !! The house is spatious yet very cozy and quiet, with a nice back porch to sit and enjoy the surrounding woods! Home is also very close to town and to Poryland/coastline, and the cleanest lake to swim in that we’ve ever been to! MJ was very helpful and quick to respond. Stay here! We hope to return sometime soon!!

What an amazing hosts! When i check in they both came and visited and gave me a grand tour of things of the place. Showed where the lake was to kayak, recommended places to eat, and visited. Michael was quick to respond making sure i was doing great. I would totally go back and rent their place again! Thank you so much!

Came for the Fall colors; left in love with the place! Small but delightful. Cluttered in the most fantastical way. Nestled in paradise. Bonnie is so nice and friendly! Pay attention to the fact that the toilet is not attached to house. Short walk to privet and very clean!

Beautiful place. Lovely decorated. I would say that it is probably a little expensive for staying there in the winter/ fall time. Only one of us could sit on the couch at a time due to its location by the tv. The shower is really small and there is no room for toiletries in the bathroom at all. There is a rack but I had to keep all my bathroom stuff in bags the entire time because it is just lacking in space. I would think The price is worth it if you’re staying there in the summer and get to use the lake.

Wonderful Stay in a Great Location! Zak and Emily’s house was exactly as described. It has a fully equipped kitchen, a grill, and a fire pit outside, making it perfect for relaxing evenings. The house is stocked with towels and other essentials, so we had everything we needed. There’s also a ping pong table, which was a lot of fun, and a great collection of movies for entertainment. Check-in was super easy, and the house is conveniently located across from Crystal Lake, offering a peaceful and scenic setting. Communication with Zak and Emily was excellent—they responded quickly and were very accommodating. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and I would highly recommend staying here for a peaceful getaway. Thanks again, Zak and Emily!

We absolutely loved our stay at Alexa’s cabin. We enjoyed the hot tub, fully stocked kitchen, and truly felt like we could disconnect from the world to connect with those around us. Alexa was a great communicator, provided detailed instructions and local recommendations that were spot on. Don’t hesitate to book this Bridgton escape!

Lovely cabin in a beautiful location. Check in was easy and Jeff is a very responsive host. Highly recommend this spot.

We had a great time at this location. The kayaks were great and the location was perfect. We had everything we needed for a fun getaway.
