We loved our time in Portsmouth and this house was the center of our satisfaction. In Portsmouth, there is so much to do, so much access to beaches, Maine, with water everywhere…and this house was a good place to have to always come back to. Kids and dog loved the dock and water, kitchen and grill (with view) was well equipped, beds were comfortable (our 16 year old loved the basement room w/ its walk-out). Access to everything was easy by bike, walking or car…kids went out jogging from house too. The owner (who lives nearby) was very kind, generous and attentive (as was appreciated). We hope to come again.
