Nana-tucket Inn
The Nana-Tucket Inn is an absolutely gorgeous and pristine property with everything a family could need! It was perfect for our family while we were visiting New England. It was a great space for family time and our teenagers had plenty to do. Nancy and Joe are the perfect hosts! They are kind and extremely helpful while they maintain the beautiful property. They are not intrusive at all but are there if you need anything. During our stay, a huge storm blew through Massachusetts with extremely strong winds and tons of rain. Nancy and Joe had the mess made by the storm was cleaned up immediately by a professional crew the next morning so that we did not miss a single moment of the property amenities! Nancy also made us a blueberry crumble cake that was delicious and so kind. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and we cannot wait to return during our next New England trip.

Great and relaxing location, close to local amenities. Perfect for small groups, Hillary was awesome to rent from.

Great spot! Clean. Bigger than you think. Easy to access just get off the highway!

Sanctum by the Lake
Great location with beautiful surroundings. The backyard had a pool and hot tub, perfect for relaxing. Steve was helpful and easy to communicate with. Would recommend!

Beautiful Lakefront Vacation
Donna is fantastic and if your looking for a charming New England spot this is it! We Are very satisfied with this home.

Lakefront home /3BR 2BA/ Dock/ Game room/ Garage
The house is beautiful and the views are just breathtaking. From inside the house, you get a beautiful view of the lake and then the porch is amazing. You can kayak, use the paddle board or use the canoe. You can also sit by the lake and enjoy the campfire. The surroundings are very beautiful and peaceful. The host is very responsive, solved all our doubts and was flexible with us during check-in and check-out, which we appreciated very much. At check-in, we were greeted by a great bottle of wine and chocolates, which was a great touch. The house also has a ping pong table, books to read and board games. The kitchen was well stocked with the basics. We had an amazing stay, we highly recommend this property :)

Bluebell Cottage Beach Vacation
Would definitely stay here again. Was really a first class space that made our family feel very relaxed.

Fantastic Kittery Home with Pool
This was our second time staying at Ned‘s place. Just as Beautiful as it was several years ago. He keeps the property very well maintained and takes pride in making sure we are comfortable and have everything we need for a pleasant stay. Felt right at home!!

Maine Oceanfront Cottage- Steps from the Beach
The hosts were fast to respond and provided great recommendations. The cottage is quaint and cute, the location and view were unbeatable. The road is steps from the cottage, so expect to hear some traffic. I’m a light sleeper so that posed a bit of challenge for me (though not my husband and kids) - however there was a sound machine on sight to save the day (or should I say night). Enjoyed our stay!

Long Sands Retreat Quick walk to beach (0.7 mi)
Excellent experience from booking to check out. Kara was extremely responsive and easy to communicate with. The location was perfect and the house was extremely clean. The hot tub was a nice touch for the end of the day relaxation. Thanks for a great stay!

Historic Charm, Modern Comfort
Outstanding place! Great location! Accommodating host! This charming and spacious home was perfect for our three-generation family gathering. We felt right at home and couldn't help but notice all the special little touches that made our stay comfortable. Our three teenagers especially loved the game room and having their own private bedrooms on the third floor. Ben was an attentive and caring host who quickly responded to the few questions that came up. We were able to walk just about anywhere we wanted to go which was another real plus. We look forward to coming back!

Beautiful Maine home overlooking pasture
Jim’s place in South Berwick was a wonderful place to stay during our visit to New Hampshire and Maine. The home had lots of great rustic charm, the kitchen was well stocked with cookware and utensils, and the space was comfortable for the five of us visiting. We enjoyed the peaceful street, the view of the meadow behind the home and the local farm stand only quick drive down the road. Jim was a great host and attentive to our needs. We would be happy to recommend his home and would definitely stay again if in the area again.

House in Eliot
Beautiful home and quiet location away from traffic but yet close enough to all the shopping, restaurants, and beautiful beaches

Luxury Lakefront Paradise w/ Private Beach
My family and I had a serene experience staying here. Although the weather was mostly rainy or cloudy, we loved the lake location and maximized the indoor, outdoor, and nearby activity options. The hosts were so responsive, regardless of the question, and made this a truly delightful visit. This was my parents’ first Airbnb experience and it set the bar higher than I could have imagined! My family and I are already talking about coming back!!

Charming 3-Bedroom Home - Short Walk to Portsmouth
What a delightful, clean, well appointed home! We felt so at home from the moment we stepped in. It was perfect for my family and gave us a wonderful place for our stay in the area. The house was so clean and has the charm of an older home while still maintaining all the modern conveniences. It is tastefully decorated and truly very comfortable. The home is located very close to downtown Portsmouth and is just a short walk if you don't want to take your vehicle. We enjoyed our time there and gave us some great family memories. Thank you Steve and Jen!

Dog Friendly 2BR Home Walk to Beach+Bearskin Neck
This house has everything! Charming location, easy layout, all new appliances, gorgeous linens, and it was spotlessly clean! You can see the ocean from one side! Easy walk to all of the cute things in Rockport. Rachel was a wonderful responsive host, and the neighbors were nice. We loved everything about it! Thanks Rachel!

The Pink Cottage
This was my second time staying at the pink cottage and both times our stay was amazing. It also rained both times! Close to downtown Newburyport and steps from the beach this is a prime location for both a private place and close to good food, and shopping. Michael was a responsive host and check in was easy via locked box. The cottage is stocked with basics and items you can use to take to the beach. Will definitely return !

Piscataquog Reservoir House - 26 Channel Ln
My family had a great time. The location was perfect for us. Private, but close to everything we needed. We spent a day in Boston, about a 90 minute drive. About the same to Portland Maine for a day. Manchester/Boston airport was only 20 minutes away. Highly recommend Tuscan Village in Salem, NH about 30 minutes away. Great shopping, dining, and entertainment venue.

*Ocean View* Charming beach house
We loved our stay. The walk to the beach was easy, and the space was comfortable. We’ll be back!

Hampton Beach, 2 Free Parking Spaces, Sunsets, BBQ
Beautiful house right near the beach and local restaurants. Everything was in walking distance. Our host Alexander was very friendly, and was quick to respond to all messages. He even provided us with some great places to eat. House was very clean and comfortable. Will be 1000% booking again! 5 ⭐️

Peaceful 4 bedroom lakehouse retreat
We had a fantastic time staying at Justin’s home!

2 bedroom waterfront retreat all seasons
Katy's house was the perfect space for a peaceful getaway. The house was beautiful and surprisingly spacious, and the view of the lake was perfect. We truly enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back if we get the chance!
