Sparrowhawk House

PRICING - All inclusive pricing makes booking your vacation easy.
One price + VRBO - AirBnB booking fee & Tax = Straightforward Reservation and No surprises

You are going to love Sparrowhawk House. The tidy yard featuring a gas fire pit and a shady patio with a Webber grill and outdoor dining that leads you into a chef’s kitchen, spacious living room, spa bathrooms and large, comfy bedrooms. The home is fully air conditioned. How is that for comfort?

The location is exactly right. A quiet residential neighborhood within strolling distance of a village that pulls out all the stops -- a main street lined with restaurants, boutiques, an ice cream shop, a shady park, historic riverfront, and a white-steepled 19th century church. There’s something so alluring about the small towns where so much history happened, and how so many things are still quaintly the way they always were. Not only can we see the three waterfalls and dams in Royal River Park and historical buildings, but Yarmouth is also home to the world-class Yarmouth Clam Festival in July, year-round sports and activities and most of all spectacular beauty everywhere you turn.
The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need to prepare delicious meals -- pots, pans, drip coffee maker, dishes, utensils, etc.
All three bedrooms are spacious and comfortable with a queen bed in each. The main bedroom is located on the first floor. There is a day bed in a den area at the top of the stairs.

Be aware - deep spa tubs in each bathroom. This is an older, historic farmhouse. (built in the early 1900's) although it has been completely updated, stairs are steep to the second floor.

Maine's largest city and foodie dream, Portland, is twenty minutes south and the outlet town of Freeport and LL Bean is just next door, a shopper's delight.
And don't miss this - Only 15 mins away. Take a walk around Mackworth Island since it is so close to your house. Mackworth Island State Park is a gem of the Casco Bay area. An island of about 100 acres, accessible by a causeway to the mainland, there are 360-degree scenic views of the ocean and Portland’s skyline, and so much to be enjoyed on this little piece of preserved land. Accessible by a causeway, Mackworth Island State Park is full of local wildlife due to its mixed-growth forest and location at the mouth of the Presumpscot River. As a legally-declared bird sanctuary, you can expect to see a wide variety of birds including turkeys, warblers, ruffed grouse, and thrushes in addition to racoons, hares, foxes, skunks and squirrels. Watch the boats cruise by through the harbor, admire the rocky coast, enjoy the Portland skyline, and keep an eye out for the island’s “fairy village,” which is a collection of tiny houses made from natural materials for the island’s magical creatures to call home.

  Scott C recommends this vacation rental

  The house overall is nice and we really enjoyed our 3 days there.
  The kitchen is fully stocked with pots, pan, plates and utensils. The outdoor patio with the hanging lights with a gas fire pit is nice. There was a minor issue in the house, ie the first floor bedroom door creak big time.
  It was be nicer if the kitchen table has 6 chairs instead of 4.

  a guest from Pollock, LA recommends this vacation rental

  Perfect accommodations for our family of five. Very clean, comfortable, and updated. Nice neighborhood. My only suggestion would be to add window blinds or black out curtains. It gets daylight very early and the rooms are bright. This would not keep me from staying here again though.

  Catherine M from HOUSTON, TX does not recommend this vacation rental.

  The community of Yarmouth is beautiful and we felt very safe. The house itself was not easy in certain areas whether young or old. The stairs present challenges to anyone taller than 5'5" because head clearance low and steep stairs even with handrails. The Beds upstairs super close to ceiling due to A-line house. The tubs are difficult to exit because of the glass design and 24" minimum height to step over and floor of tub slick. The handles do not really suffice due to surface slipping and height. Kitchen was beautiful. We had Zoomba teacher and runner with us and they had challenges exiting bathtub and maneuvering stairs with luggage. Bathtubs need to be re-configured and furniture downstairs really evaluated. We also had plug blow out and had to find circuit breaker box and reset.

  a guest from Homewood, Alabama recommends this vacation rental

  We enjoyed the quiet location of the rental. The furnishings were new and stylish. The stairs to the second floor were quite steep without a handrail. A handrail and something to cover the empty wall on the left side would make it safer, especially for young kids. There were also a lot of spiders that kept turning up in the bathrooms. But overall, we enjoyed our stay.
