House vacation rentals in Peaks Island

Great backyard with a pool, hot tub, fire pit and privacy with the woods.

This was the perfect home base for exploring various parts of the Maine coast. Beds were comfy, and each room had a wall unit to make it the temperature you like. Our kids loved being upstairs in the 3 beds room and having their own space. WiFi worked great, and that was with 7 of us on it doing various things - adults working, kids streaming. Would definitely stay here again.

We had a wonderful time! Going during off season was very peaceful and quiet will definitely book again in the future!

The house was spotless and centrally located for what we wanted to do in southern Maine. It was well stocked with quality toilet paper, napkins and Kleenex. We had plenty of towels for the hot tub and pool. It is updated and well taken care of. The hosts were extremely helpful and we didn’t see them at all, so the place felt very private. This was an amazing house and our kids had so much fun in the pool and playing corn hole on the large deck. Would recommend this house for families and couples in a heartbeat!

Kathi’s place was great! Super close to the Downtown Portland/Old Port area. Kathi was a great host, extremely responsive and genuinely nice, plus she even made my family and I some delicious blueberry muffins for our stay! Her instructions were clear and she made us feel right at home! Would definitely stay again whenever we’re in the area!

Beautiful home in a quiet, family-friendly community. We loved being able to walk up to the pool and play in the game room in the main clubhouse area. The house is a short drive to downtown Kennebunkport and local beaches. It is a quick 30 minute drive up to Portland. Our daughter loved sleeping in the private bedroom upstairs. The kitchen was fully stocked with appliances. The space was immaculate when we arrived. Steve was responsive to any needs we had during our stay. A great find!

We absolutely loved our stay! The home is gorgeous, light and airy, and so comfortable for our group! You can't beat the location across from the beach and quiet street for walking. The pool and hot tub were also so nice. We would highly recommend and would love to stay there again!

Great place to stay! Clean and comfortable. Excellent location, close to many restaurants, and other activities!

Excellent location. Lots of great restaurants, coffee shops, breweries and bars all within walking distance. Just a short drive to downtown and tourist destinations. Was a great stay for us and our 3 year old daughter!

Such a cute, quiet, well-designed bungalow! The beds and couches were super comfortable, at times it was hard to get up! But we managed to run the half-marathon around the bay, walk the nearby trails and visit downtown. I hope 42 Vermont is available for our next visit to Portland. THANK YOU. The plentiful coffee pods were a bonus!

The place was absolutely beautiful with wonderful views! The host was extremely accommodating and kind. The only thing we wish we could change were the ferry times. The last ferry being at 8:30 really prevented us from experiencing Portland (and surrounding cities) night life.

Stayed here as a group of ten for my bachelorette party - incredibly unique place to stay, especially if you don't live in Maine. The sleeping arrangements were definitely a bit tight for a group of ten, which Laura kindly warned us about prior to booking, but it was perfectly fine for just a couple of nights. Gorgeous views even in the rain. Loved taking the ferry to and from town! Can't wait to come back.

I wanted a peaceful place by the water to unwind and Maggie’s home nailed it. Every aspect of our stay exceeded expectations. The deck views were amazing—islands, ospreys hunting, and a duck and her ducklings feeding along the shoreline. At low tide we poked around in the sand at the bottom of the rocks, and could have easily walked out to the center of the bay but it was juuuust a bit chilly for us. Easy to drive, park and walk along beach on the Atlantic side and explore. We didn’t have time to kayak but hope to be back to give it a go. So much beauty and nature, but with all the amenities that make it easy to relax. Maggie was responsive, and she and her family obviously care very much for the property. Check the propane BEFORE you plan to grill :), and bring flip flops to easily get from the house to the grotto (which was so comfy and cozy) and back again.

This was our fourth stay at Ralda's house. It is easily one of my favorite places to stay. The house is pristine and comfortable, and the proximity to Higgins Beach can't be beat. We're already looking forward to our next stay!

This home was beyond expectations. The views are amazing. Going to sleep with the ocean breezes blowing in , listening to the waves and then waking up to the view of the water is just awesome. Immaculately clean, well stocked and great location. Although we would have been content just to sit and enjoy the views every day, there are great day trips. Besides the light house visits, hiking in the state parks, shopping in Freeport, browsing in Kennebunkport and even a day trip into Boston. We all (mom, dad and 2 grown sons) loved every moment of our 9 day stay.

We had a great stay at Marlena’s. It’s a great location and very comfortable house.

Beautiful beach house! We look forward to staying here again.

What a fantastic place! Great amenities for a luxurious stay at the house, all the tools you may need if you wanted to cook at home, and so conveniently located to Old Port if you want some great food and drinks in the city. We stayed for 3 nights with another couple. We spent time in Old port visiting restaurants and a few breweries/distilleries and ended the nights by the firepit in the back yard. Took a nice walk. We also made a nice dinner after grabbing some great produce at the Protland Farmaers market. Wish we had more time!

We loved our stay in Portland. The house was beautiful and lay out was great. Our group enjoyed the spacious kitchen and open floor plan. The location to downtown Portland was awesome with just about a 10 minute drive to get to Old Town! Check in was a really easy process and the host was very attentive and thorough! 10/10 would recommend.

Perfect for our needs! Awesome location on island.

This is a perfect place to stay if you want to go to Portland. We came in from Ohio and were able to ride our bicycles from Angela’s place to get around Portland. The home itself was in a safe location, clean, and peaceful. There were clothespins placed throughout the house with little activities to do and that was so much fun! If we get back to Portland, we would love to stay here again!

Great home and hosts. New house in a perfect location. The house has very comfortable indoor and outdoor spaces. The home is a super close walk to the park and lots of great restaurants/bars.

Highly recommend! The location is perfect. So close all the yummy Portland restaurants. We were able to walk to Mackworth island and drive up the coast to other area parks The house was clean and had everything we needed. The kitchen was well appointed but free of clutter. The bedrooms were quite comfortable.

Great location and really nice place. It’s very private, everything was as described and was very amenable to us and our two young children. We plan to try and stay again the next time we visit Portland.
