Holiday rentals with outdoor seating in Long Island

Our son, his girlfriend, my husband and I enjoyed staying at the cottage in late October 2024. The location was quite scenic as it overlooked Casco Bay, near Portland, ME. The host made suggestions that we followed (bringing firewood & blankets). The kitchen was equipped with utensils & coffeemakers. The neighborhood was quiet. We enjoyed walking in the local preserve along the water and took advantage of visiting the Portland Museum of Art and eating at The Honey Paw, an Asian fusion restaurant.

We thoroughly enjoyed our peaceful and quiet time of rest at The Rising Tides. The setting is absolutely serene. It’s very secluded and quiet, the perfect place for a week of rest and relaxation. We went hiking on the Cliff Trail (15 minutes away and a very nice hiking trail), watched the sunrise at the Lands End store on Bailey island (15-20 minutes), and kayaked in the cove. The grill was very nice and we enjoyed cooking on it regularly. The place was very clean and ready on our arrival. The host communicated very clearly. You will need to follow her driving directions as they are very clear and helpful. In our four days there we only saw 1 neighbor - and that was as we were leaving on the weekend. There’s a grocery store only 15 minutes away and we were able to stock up on our way there. Really, this was one of our favorite places we’ve ever stayed. We really enjoyed having a few options of things to do while also being able to just do nothing on our vacation in a quiet place.

Great spot for a private getaway! Hosts were very friendly, flexible and ensured we had everything we needed. Would absolutely visit again and recommend 100%

Can’t say enough about how great our stay was! Andrew was incredibly responsive, let us check in early and check out late without even asking. It was a great location on the island, very walkable, even for my mother with a bad knee (she was exhausted after the first day though). Would absolutely stay again!! 10/10

Amazing surroundings and views. The reserve loop walk is great.The perfect Maine coastal experience.

My family and I stayed at Michael and Naomi's home in Falmouth and we had a blast! Their home is lovely and comfortably fit 4 adults and a toddler. We visited in August and had a couple of sticky days and were so happy that they had AC units throughout the home. This allowed our toddler to nap and us to relax in comfort. Their kitchen was well stocked with various coffees, creamers and all the cookware we needed to make our meals. The home was a short walk away from Mackworth Island and a quick 5m drive to Portland. It made getting around so easy! Michael and Naomi were very responsive and flexible with our arrangements and we would absolutely stay in the future! We loved it.

Stop scrolling & just book this amazing home! Randy is an excellent, gracious & very responsive host! Check-in was a breeze w/ wonderful detailed instructions for the house and region sent in advance. This house is awesome, pristine clean, beautifully decorated and outfitted. Totally turnkey set up as they thought of everything one might need to cook, relax, sleep, explore and enjoy your visit! It's very evident that these hosts want their guests to have an exceptional experience and we did! Beds were comfy along with plenty of high quality linens and supplies. We truly cannot wait to return on what will be our regular road trips to Maine! We toured Boothbay, Chebeague Island, Brunswick, Portland, Kennebunkport, Freeport and Ogunquit while we were there. Yarmouth is awesome with super friendly locals! Close by, we found Rosemont Market, Maggie Mae's Cafe and Royal River Grille convenient options among many good ones in the area. Thanks to our host for the wine & chocolate!

Rhonda’s house was so charming with its many decorations from the 1940s, 1950s. It felt very cozy and completely comfortable there for the five of us. The grands loved the loft with the toys, and we adults appreciated the awesome shower and towel filled bathroom. So nice! Very comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen, easy to get into entrance, porch a nice place to relax. Great AC, too. Beautifully clean and tidy. Very close to downtown Portland for all of the going’s on and super restaurants. We would definitely stay again.

Great location close to downtown Portland. Lots of walkable places close by for coffee and breakfast. A little farther to some unique restaurants. We Uber'd a lot which worked out great to avoid parking around Portland. We would definitely secure this nice place the next time we come to Portland!

Cozy place in a nice area! Walkable to downtown. Great communication - very nice and accommodating! We had a great trip :-)

Great little place. We parked our car and trailer right in front of the house, had takeout and a few groceries delivered (I think we used DoorDash or GrubHub), and got rested up for the next leg of our trip. Hyeri was super kind and responsive.

Great location just a short drive into downtown. Also, we really enjoyed the local restaurants, ice cream stand, and coffee shop all within a few blocks of the place. The beds and coach are very comfortable, we would consider staying again upon our return. As other comments have mentioned, there is resident family above which I believe includes a younger child who can be heard running around a lot. This is an older building so I am guessing hardwood floors are throughout and that accentuated the noise.

Great stay! Location is perfect for everything we wanted to do, be by the water, stay right next to downtown, and a short walk from our tour with Eco Adventures. Furniture was very comfortable and everything was clean. Great restaurants in the area. Would return back!

A perfect stay. The accommodation is superbly located and you can easily explore Portland on foot. There are many restaurants, etc. nearby, the selection is great. Sharon and Eric were perfect hosts and we felt completely comfortable. The accommodation is very clean and has everything you need. The private parking space is also a big plus. Thank you Sharon & Eric for a great stay and for making us feel at home. We will be back!

Our stay at The Bee Keepers Cottage was amazing. The property met our needs perfectly and it was super cute and cozy. The host was very responsive and communicative. And for any star gazers out there, the sky on a clear night is mesmerizing.

Dax was a very friendly, accommodating host. The place was very cute and also very clean upon arrival. We would definitely book again!

Great stay

Very nice stay! The location is perfect, everything you need is on site. I recommend it!

Wonderful little spot very close to the beach. Plenty of places to walk to from the location as well as a short drive to Old Orchard Beach. Would come back in a heartbeat!

We had a great stay at Tysons place. Its a perfect location, only like 5-10 minutes drive from Old Port. The home is clean and beautiful. Street parking was super easy. Always space right on the side of the home. Each room has its own A/C. Would definitely recommend staying at Tysons place!

This cute little cottage was perfect for my stay in Old Orchard Beach. My stay was in cold January but the cottage was warm and cozy. The highlight was being steps from the beach and being able to roll out of bed and catch the sunrise each morning.

Great place! Close to the beach. Easy and fast communication when we needed to specify parking questions.

Great place to stay, Ogunquit is such an endearing place to be 😄

We’ve stayed here 3x so far and will always come back. This place is such a unique stay with live music right below. You can open the balcony doors and see and hear the ocean. The home is always clean and feels very homey. We truly love it here and will always choose to stay at this airbnb.
