Ski-in/ski-out vacation rentals in Maine

Ski-In/Ski-out, Sunny, On-Mountain Getaway!
Good location, easy access to the hill by either driving or shuttle. The condo was fine for our group of four. Kitchen had everything to cook for that many. Very comfortable. thanks

Mountainside - Ski In/Out Condo
Our stay at David’s ski and ski out home at Sugarloaf Mountain was a wonderful getaway. Everything was as expected, and David was super responsive to any questions we had.

Sunday River Condo: Brookside I B-306
condo had great view of Mountain and was very accessible (Ski-in and Ski-out with walk across parking lot). Gas Fireplace was a welcomed amenity after long day of skiing. Parking was very convenient.

Ski In/Ski Out Sugarloaf Sugartree 2 Deluxe Studio
Had an excellent stay at this wonderful condo on the mountain. Clean, easily accessible and well furnished! (The chocolates were a nice touch!)

Lil’ Ski Chalet-Private Assoc. Beach! 1 dog OK!
We loved the proximity to the mountain for a little ski getaway and the amenities were excellent. This was definitely the best stocked Airbnb with anything you might need from yummy coffee and tea and any other kitchen amenity you can think of, cotton balls and q-tips in the bathroom, a night light, hand soap in the kitchen and the bathroom.... Plenty of hooks for coats by the door and extra hooks in the bathroom for towels. Plenty of indoor mats for leaving shoes by the door and a great sofa and tv for lounging. All in all we really appreciated the attention to detail to make our stay comfy and cozy!

Sunday River Locke Mountain Ski In/ Ski Out Pool
Great stay at Stephanie’s place - super easy ski on and off location! Cozy and functional first floor unit. Kids loved having access to the outdoor pool!

Corner Condo- ON Mountain ski in/ ski out!
Overall, our stay was great! Super nice to be right on the mountain. Cozy little apartment, the pull out couch is not too bad, but for the value of the apartment it was worth it! Quiet building and neighbors, we had a great time and will absolutely be back! Did not use the pool or hot tub, but it looked nice. Apartment was fully stocked, except tissues, but not a big deal. Liz was extremely responsive and helpful!

Ski-in, Ski-out Centrally Located Sugarloaf Condo
My husband and I stayed here with out two daughters for a weekend of skiing and it was great! My 4 year old loved that she could just walk over to the lift and hop on and then ski back to the condo when she was all done. The space was great, comfortable and easy to use. I would definitely stay again

Sunday River Bethel Village ! Walk to Restaurants
Scott's place was perfect for our small family's ski trip! It was exactly as pictured, had everything we needed for our stay, and was so close to Sunday River (~10 minutes) and right down the road from restaurants in Bethel Village. We would love to stay again on our next ski trip!

Falmouth 3br near Town landing
Wow. What a great experience even with tons of snow. The hot tub was well worth it and the house and fire place were just right. Even my dogs got to enjoy spending time there. Thank you again!

The Sea Grove
Place was dated but nice. We found it a little small for our family of 4. Overall is was a good place to stay if you aren't spending much time in doors.

Cottage style home 2 blocks from the beach!
We had a wonderful girl's trip staying in Diana's house! We walked to the beach and to Scratch bakery (twice). The house was perfect for the five of us with a great sitting area to hang out and chat. The house was clean and the instructions for cleaning up were easy to follow.

Family/Friends Getaway Hidden on Mt Desert Island
"From my daughter: This is our 3rd trip to Acadia National Park, but the first time at this Air B&b. Originally it was supposed to be for 5 of us, but 3 couldn't make it, so it ended up just being my husband and I. The Air B&b is in a remote enough area that it is nice and peaceful, but still an easy 20-30 minute drive to almost anywhere on Mt. desert island. The house has so many thoughtful touches, like an area outside for a campfire, supplies for smores, basic seasoning and condiments, all the light switches labeled (so thankful for that!), etc. We did a grocery run our first day and came back to the house for almost all our meals. This was a cozy place and we'd recommend to anyone visiting Mt. Desert Island and would return here again if we come back in the future."

Green's Landing on Branch Lake
We had a wonderful stay! The property was exactly as described — clean, comfortable, and well-equipped for everything we needed. What really stood out was Tim’s responsiveness; he was incredibly quick to answer any questions and made sure we felt completely taken care of throughout our visit. It made the experience even more seamless and enjoyable. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to others!

Waterfront Getaway on the coast of Maine.
As our last stay everything was very accommodating and comfortable. Great music, books, art and an expansive beautiful landscape. The stars at night are beyond amazing. Highly recommended.

Kennebunkport House - Walk to Dock Square!
We had a fantastic stay! The house was in a perfect location; peaceful, private, and still just a short walk to dinner spots, which made everything so easy. There was plenty of space for lounging and gathering, and more than enough bathrooms for everyone (a huge plus!). The house had everything we needed for a relaxing weekend away. Cozy, quiet, and super comfortable; we’ll definitely be back! Highly recommend.

Plovers Cottage, Waterfront
This was hands down the best place we have ever stayed both on AirBnB and through other platforms. Mark & Kathy were so incredibly kind. The house is private with stunning water views and so clean and comfortable. The home was truly amazing. I can’t say enough about this place and the hosts. Everything was perfect and while we typically go somewhere new every travel, this has us already thinking about coming back just to enjoy it again! It’s close to Acadia though with how busy Acadia is I recommend visiting Schoodic Peninsula and the other preserves in the area. Sunset here was spectacular.

York River's Private Escape
We had a lovely weekend at Debbie's home! It was immaculate and very welcoming. The place is located right off the main road but is secluded. The weather wasn't great so we didn't get to enjoy the grill or outdoor setup but it looked very nice. The kitchen was amazing! All the equipment was in great condition and as a cook, was everything I wanted. Close to everything York has to offer! Great for families or a couple with a dog like us. Highly recommend!

Tranquility, Relaxation, Family, Romance
Lovely, super clean, beautifully decorated home. Everything you need (except a toaster). Huge yard was totally enjoyed by my doggie. 2 Gun shots nearby were shocking, guess it's hunting season in the woods (at least this city girl hopes that is reason). Only issues were dripping shower head, no stopper to take bath in deep soaker tub, and could not turn down heat for sleeping. Overall great 1st airbnb experience for me.

Pet Friendly- Half a Mile to Downtown Dock-Square!
Amazing home, walking distance from Dock Square. Perfect spot for Prelude and quick drive to beaches. Three separate seating areas, one of which is sunroom. Very cozy. The bedrooms feel like home. Interiors are well thought out and authentic New England. We’re obsessed.

Lily Pond Studio Cabin #4
We loved our experience at our cozy, stand alone cabin. The room is spacious and has everything you need. We would stay again for sure!

Captain Cookie's sea cottage
Captain Cookie's sea cottage was perfect for our visit. It was private, stocked with everything we needed, and a short walk to the beach. Robert was very helpful and responsive during our trip and I wouldn’t hesitate to book this property again!

Dog Friendly 3 BR Kennebunkport Cottage + Deck/BBQ
This Kennebunkport home is very well situation and beautifully decorated. It was a great location for our Thanksgiving rendezvous vous.

HotTub/5min to K-port, Pet friendly, @anchorunwind
Such a lovely and peaceful home. The upstairs loft felt like sleeping in a treehouse. So many thoughtful touches throughout the entire house. The kitchen was well equipped with great appliances and supplies. Truly one of the best equipped and comfortable air bnbs we have ever stayed in. We did not use the hot tub but we really loved the whole outdoor space and the amount of windows which we opened on the warm day. Such a wonderful way to have all the comforts of home with the best part of being in nature. We even saw wild turkeys run through the property several times. We cannot wait to come back!
Your guide to Maine
All About Maine
Located on the northeastern tip of the Atlantic Coast, the state of Maine is the epitome of New England charm, with rugged coastlines giving way to an endless expanse of ocean and lighthouses and lobster boats dotting the horizon. For the outdoor adventurer, Maine’s wilderness is nothing short of breathtaking: Trek through the rocky red cliffs of Acadia National Park, cool off in year-round ice caves in Debsconeag Lakes Wilderness Area, and take a dip in the alpine pond on Tumbledown Mountain.
You can spend endless hours breathing in the fresh sea air here. For those more inclined to a city break, Maine has some of the most charming coastal towns around, starting with its biggest city, Portland. Stock up on local artisan wares, sample an up-and-coming restaurant scene, and peruse vintage and antiques shops brimming with treasures. However you choose to spend your time here, one thing is non-negotiable: Make sure to save space in your itinerary to sample Maine lobster in all its freshly-caught glory.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Maine
Maine’s full four seasons are part of what makes this state so beautiful. When to visit depends entirely on what you’re coming here to do. Maine rentals on the beach fill up fast in the summer (so book ahead), but with good reason: the weather is typically warm, the beaches are beautiful, and there is no shortage of outdoor activities to enjoy. Late spring and early autumn are good choices if you want to skip some of the crowds but still take advantage of nice weather for walking, hiking, and boating. Fall is possibly the most beautiful time to visit, as the forests break out in shades of reds, orange, and gold, though you risk the chance of rain or even snow in later months. In the winter, temperatures drop and blankets of snow turn the mountains into a skier or snowboarder’s paradise.
Top things to do in Maine
Lighthouses
Maine’s lighthouses have been important navigational points and welcoming safe havens to seafaring folk for 200 years. Many of these 65 landmark lighthouses are open to the public for tours — some house quaint museums, others can be climbed for panoramic coastal views. As you make your way throughout the state, keep your eye out for them; even if just from afar, they’re postcard-perfect sights to see.
Eat lobster
From inventive farm-to-table fare in Portland’s best restaurants, to piping hot bowls of clam chowder, bean suppers, clambakes, and craft beers, Maine’s local culinary scene is nothing short of drool-worthy. Still, there is one food that rules them all: lobster. Lobster rolls, steamed lobster, boiled lobster, grilled lobster — no matter the preparation, nothing beats eating it here, straight from the sea.
Acadia National Park
Maine is beautiful any which way you look, but Acadia National Park is perhaps the most beautiful corner of the state. From the heritage-protected Merchant Row islands famous for their granite, to learning about the homeland of the Wabanaki indigenous people, to lush forests painted in all the colors of fall, there are endless trails and treks to discover.
