Vacation rentals with a kayak in Scarborough

We had a wonderful stay at this cozy, comfortable, and peaceful home—perfect for our family of five! The space was quiet, private, and truly felt like a home away from home. It's in a beautiful location right by Lake Province, and we had almost everything we needed for our 3-night Easter weekend stay. Our older children attend UNH, and this was the perfect spot for us all to be together, relax, play games, and enjoy quality family time. We love to cook, and the brand new kitchen was gorgeous and a joy to use—we prepared three amazing meals together! Just a heads-up for fellow cooks: the kitchen is stocked with the basics, so if you're planning more elaborate meals, you might want to bring a few extra tools. The outdoor space was also a highlight! With beautiful weather all three days, we spent a lot of time outside enjoying the fire pit, string lights, grilling, eating al fresco, and just being together. We truly loved our stay and are already looking forward to coming back.

Beautiful views overlooking river and waterways, with all essential amenities on main level. Home has full set of utensils and pots/pans for cooking in modern and newly renovated kitchen. Beds and mattresses were comfortable. Responsive host. Highly recommend for a family vacation, especially if in the summer when weather is warmer. If I travel to Portsmouth area again, I would stay here again.

We had a fantastic time staying at Justin’s home!

We had a great stay! Loved the views and hot tub. It was so close to town but felt private with the privacy fence. Owners were very responsive! Thanks for a great stay

We loved our stay at Wendy's place. The location is perfect on the river & close to Portland so it was the best of both worlds. Wendy couldn't have been any more accommodating, offering us early check in and a late check out. She was easy to communicate with & ensured we had a seamless experience. The house was exactly what we were looking for. We hope to visit again in the summertime!!!

This lake house was beautiful and the view is stunning! Every room is well appointed and perfect for setting a lake vacation vibe. The house has everything you could need. The description and pics on Airbnb are thorough and completely accurate. Jenna was an awesome host - very responsive and helpful and flexible. We will definitely be back!

The house was beautiful, clean and there was plenty of space. We really enjoyed our time there and Kate was so helpful. The only thing that didn’t cooperate was the weather. I wish we had been able to enjoy the lake and local hiking trails. I would stay again!

Irene was a great host! She reached out with very helpful information regarding the property and lake, which allowed us to prepare well for our stay. The house was clean, well-stocked, and exactly as pictured—perfect for a vacation getaway with friends!

This place was really nice! Its on a beautiful lake with a lot to do! Jessica had plenty of kayaks, canoes, and life vests. The surrounding is beautiful and peaceful. The location is great with plenty of restaurants and shopping nearby. It's also very close to many great hiking areas Mt Washington.

my partner and i stayed here to just get away from reality for a couple days! this lakeside cottage is the perfect place to do so. we couldn’t decide if we wanted to go out and about or stay right in the cabin, it was so peaceful! thank you for hosting!

It was overall a tremendous experience. I would definitely recommend it!

The home was in a beautiful location and it was so peaceful to wake up and look out over the water. The beds were comfortable and there was lots of space for our group to hang out. The host was very accommodating and answered all our questions quickly. Highly recommend!

From arriving to the hospitality throughout the stay to check out everything was just amazing!! Hidden gem for sure! Very relaxing cottage with a beautiful view. Very cozy, felt right at home. I used to live in Maine so returning for NYE and my daughter’s birthday and experiencing this after the fast pace living in Miami was an amazing experience, just what I needed!

Perfect fall cottage so close to Portland! The cottage is so peaceful and quiet. But so close to Portland but you wouldn’t even know it. The farm is lovely and we took a walk down to the river on the property, it was so peaceful and so much land! If you are looking for a get away from a city, but want to be able to explore Portland and Kennybunks, this was the perfect spot. I don’t know if I’ve slept that good all year. Would definitely come back again. And we love Trooper the dog!

Our stay was perfect and exactly what we ordered. Secluded but still only a short 15-20 min from restaurants and stores. Helen was excellent at communicating within only minutes. For people with kids this would be perfect cause of all the bunk beds. We unfortunately didn’t use the deck much because of the weather but a night out there overlooking the water would have been so amazing so I highly recommend booking for that alone.

Family came in to visit and stayed here. They absolutely loved it. The house was beautiful, unique and super clean. Loved the retro kitchen and all the detail done inside. The view from the porch was everyone’s favorite part. Overall, an amazing stay here.

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!!

Have been here multiple times with my family and always have a wonderful stay! Lisa is easy to contact The place is beautiful!!

wonderful birthday weekend stay. very clean, quiet and peaceful! we had everything we needed to stay busy in the rain! very responsive host

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!

This is a beautiful home that is very well maintained and cared for. Alexa's cabin was a great place for 5 of us to gather, relax, and enjoy. Kitchen has everything you need, the hot tub is fantastic during a spring snowstorm, the beds were very comfortable, and it provided ample space for us.

Absolutely beautiful and peaceful stay. John and Cassie’s cabin was just as described and exactly what we were looking for. We drove up during a snow storm but the roads were plowed and well maintained. Very isolated and private but never felt unsafe or uncomfortable. Not too far from things to do but we were content enjoying the cozy relaxing home. John was quick to communicate with us if we needed anything and was very helpful.

As advertised, but perhaps a bit smaller than it appears. Great location, and the host was responsive.

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