We are a custom built home designed by Maine archetect Caleb Johnson and are settled on a wooded lot which overlooks Biddeford Pool Marsh which is a Rachel Carson bird sanctuary. We are a 2 minute walk to the center of the Campus of the University of New England and a 7 minute walk to Hills Beach a secluded Maine beach . We are also just a 10 minute drive or a bike ride to Fortunes Rocks beach which offers two miles of sand and is known for its surfing. Biddeford Pool (3 miles) Kennebunkport (10 miles) Old Orchard beach (12 miles) and Portland (20 miles) are an easy drive.

Room offers one bedroom with en suite bathroom. We have a living room with potential to sleep several on a jumbo recliner couch and on 2 extra long twin beds. This is a completely private living room for our guests. There is a second full bathroom off the first floor hall and serves guests sleeping in the living room. We DO NOT have a full kitchen but do have a small refrigerator, microwave and toaster. Continental breakfast supplies are available in the living room. A hot tub, beach equipment, and robs are a few of the amenities that are included. We have strong WiFi. Hot tub is open in the winter but is a little more difficult to access In winter.

We can't say enough about how wonderful our experience was staying with Benda and Phil (and Ollie). From the remote setting, to the quiet upstairs apartment, this truly had everything we needed for 9 days. Brenda has decorated with the traveler in mind. Sleeping area was separate from the "living" area. We utilized the small desk to use our laptop, and overall had plenty of space to spread out. The window blind on remote control was great in the mornings, there were plenty of blankets, pillows, pool towels and even bath robes. The snacks they supplied were perfect to get our mornings started (bagels, cream cheese, muffins, jams, peanut butter, OJ.....). Brenda and Phil have full lives, and stay busy, but were always happy to take a break from their yard work to chat with us and to hear about our day and future travel plans. We try to get to this area at least once per year, and look forward to staying here again.

Phil and Brenda's place was a very nice place to stay while we were running the Maine Coast half marathon. The hosts thought of every detail and made us feel right at home. We would certainly stay here again when in the area!

An excellent, cozy stay
I was visiting family who goes to UNE and you cannot be closer to campus than this. That being said, it was also impressively well isolated from the noise you would associate with a college campus. Every morning we would wake up and see the beautiful marsh behind the property, and not think we were a 2 minute drive from college dorms. The accomodations were excellent, we had plenty of room to ourselves for our stay The hosts have tons of recommendations for any sort of venue you may be looking for. All in all, a wonderful stay, and I will be visiting again!

Like staying with your grandparents
This was not the first time we’ve stayed at Brenda & Phil’s home and won’t be the last. They’re so thoughtful and caring and out such detail into their home. It is like you’re staying at your grandparents’ home because the space you’re in is connected to their house, but a separate entrance. They like to make sure you’re happy and comfortable. Every amenity you could imagine is there and we’ll be back yet again next year.

My wife, our two teenagers, and I enjoyed a week-long Maine vacation here. It was very clean, very quiet, and very conveniently located. EXTREMELY quiet and secluded location while still very close to everything you'd want to visit in the area.

A perfect introduction to Maine hospitality!
My first visit to Maine. Friends of mine vacation in Maine annually. They were lodging nearby. The Johnsons' home is beautiful. Their son did an awesome job designing the structure. I particularly enjoyed the AC. The two room suite was just the right size. Thank you for being the perfect hosts! Definitely will consider this property again when I return to Maine.

Amazing Hospitality!
We stayed here for 2 night (2 adults & 2 teens). Brenda and Phil were extremely accommodating! We were driving from Mystic and the weather forecast was horrible rain and storms. We left early to get ahead of it so I messaged and asked if we could check in early. Brenda got back to me very quickly and they were able to accommodate us. When we arrived Brenda greeted us and showed us around. She goes above and beyond! There were bagels, snacks, juice, candies, etc. left for us. She even asked if there was anything specific that my kids would eat. Everything was very clean and comfortable. It was perfect for what we needed. I would highly recommend!

Location is Good - Owner is Nice
This property is in a really great location for the exploring that we wanted to do, the room served its purpose and the owner we met was very nice. Depending on your needs, here is a little more information to help anyone looking to determine if this is a good fit: • Owner is friendly and will meet you at the door several times throughout your stay as you go in and out • Great location if you want to explore Portland, Boothbay Harbor or Salem - we branched out lots! • To get to the space, you will go through the owner's laundry room and up skinny stairs - as noted in another review, it is not as separate as you think it may be from the listing • The bedroom is situated above the owner's space • The hot tub is right outside the owner's space • Walking to the beach as described is probably not the most ideal or safe • In July - mosquitos are pretty rampant, and sitting outside in the lovely space at the firepit is a non-option unless you put chemicals on - we tried :) • As noted in another review, the doors are not locked. You do not have the capability of locking behind you and if you are going to be late, you will need to let the owner know so the door remains unlocked for you • As noted - there is no kitchen area-prepping anything may be difficult (depending on complexity) if you want to plan some meals in All in all, we had a great visit to Maine! This property would be a perfect fit (and obviously has) for some.

Rejuvenation in Biddeford
Our 4 nights here offered everything we had hoped for: beauty, relaxation, all the comforts of a well cared for property, and the graciousness and generosity of our hosts (both human and canine!) Phil and Brenda were friendly and informative, but also allowed us the privacy we wanted. We look forward to returning in the future.

Very nice place
It was a very cute place to stay in a quiet area. There was no door lock so we were able to just walk in and head upstairs. The husband greeted us with their dog. He was very friendly. We did notice a bunch of popcorn under the couch, which was not a big deal. We picked it up. Also, our second night there we noticed a random disposable razor on the ledge of the shower that we did not notice the first night there. Overall, it was a nice place to stay but beware of the slanted ceilings/walls. We did hit our heads a couple times trying to get to the beds on the back side of the couch.

Comfortable, Convenient, Clean
Phil and Brenda, our hosts, made our stay very comfortable and welcoming. They both were very friendly and made us feel right at home. The description of the property is exactly what is posted and is very clean. There is a well maintained and clean hot tub to use as well as a fire pit with wood. The natural woods setting is quiet and peaceful. I don't think we heard any traffic when we were there. It is on a local traveled road, so not much noise. If you are looking to be near beautiful Maine beaches and explore what southern Maine has to offer, this is a great central location. We would definitely return for another stay and also recommend this to any of our friends.

Perfect Place
This is my second time staying at this place. First time, just me and my daughter to check out UNE, and it was perfect location, and beautiful even in the dead of winter. This time it was to help our daughter move out of UNE for the summer. We had 2 adults and 2 adult children staying and it was perfect again, this time being so close to the beaches was great. The second bathroom access made it easier for showers with 4 people. We were able to use the washer and dryer and the microwave/small fridge was perfect for us to have breakfast and snacks so we weren’t always eating out. Brenda snd Phil were very helpful with any questions we had and offered suggestions on where to visit while there. We would stay at Brenda and Phil’s place any time.
