Description of the Freeport vacation house rental

'Thea' has been our summer home since 1986. We are the last house on a point of land. Decks on both sides afford both an east and west view of the water. The rocky shoreline has a few sandy places for sunbathing and swimming depending on the changing of the tide. We enjoy blue herons, osprey, gulls, and we've even seen eagles feeding on the flats. The interior of the Cape is modern with a comfortable, open floor plan downstairs and four compact bedrooms and a full bath upstairs. Two of the bedrooms open directly onto the balcony which makes it possible to lie abed and view the water beyond. In addition to the usual amenities, we leave the kitchen stocked with spices, condiments, baking ingredients, and canned goods with the understanding that whomever uses the last of anything replaces it for incoming guests. In 2008 we added wireless internet and basic cable TV access for one TV upstairs and one TV downstairs. Our best recommendation is that folks keep coming back.

Location

Car: necessary

Close to Portland, Freeport shopping (home of LLBean), Bowdoin College, museums in Bath and Brunswick, and many state parks and beaches. Our home is surrounded by water and at the high tides with the new moon and the full moon briefly becomes an island. Under most circumstances this does not impact your visit. Once in a while, though, you have to use our tide charts to plan when you will leave or return.

Further details for this vacation house rental in Freeport, Maine

'Thea' has been our summer home since 1986. We are the last house on a point of land. Decks on both sides afford both an east and west view of the water. The rocky shoreline has a few sandy places for sunbathing and swimming depending on the changing of the tide. We enjoy ospreys, gulls, and we've even seen eagles feeding on the flats at low tide.

Our home is a modernized Cape with a comfortable, open floor plan with a downstairs laundry and full bath and four compact bedrooms upstairs. Two of the bedrooms open directly onto the balcony which makes it possible to lie abed and watch the water beyond. In the Summer of 2008 we have added basic cable for a TV upstairs and downstairs and wireless internet.

In addition to the usual amenities we leave the kitchen stocked with spices, condiments, and canned goods with the understanding that whomever uses the last of anything replaces it for incoming guests. Our best recommendation is that folks keep coming back.

Guest Book: 'We have just returned from a holiday in the USA with our daughter Karen and her family and were fortunate to spend a week at 'Thea'. This is really to thank you for providing such a well equipped rental home in an idyllic setting. We all appreciated the effort you made to present Thea as a home with such complete provisioning far beyond what would be found in most holiday homes. In the past 20 years or so we have spent many happy holidays in excellent accommodations but must say that Thea' has been the best of all. Thanks again. (This was a hand written letter from a guest dated 7/23/06, not an e-mail. We promised anonymity.)
