Vacation Rental Amenities

Higgins Beach just happens to be one of the best beaches in Maine.  
It is a 3/4 mile white sand beach (the kind of fine sand 
that "squeaks" when you walk on it) located bewteen rockbound cliffs 
to the south and the Spurwink River to the north.  A gentle beach 
slope makes it safe for the kids while the offshore surf break makes 
it a favorite of surfers.  Offshore is Richmand Island, a great 
destination for kayakers.  A real "beach community" the Higgins 
Beach 
neighborhood is walkable - you don't have to get in your car to buy 
local seafood at the fishmarket, fresh fruit, vegetables, meat at 
the 
fruit stand, or pick up your sundries at the corner store.  
Although, 
you may opt to dine at one of the award winning restaurants at the 
two local hotels.  The Higgins Beach Clubhouse offers Wednesday 
morning breakfasts, scheduled musical entertainment, festive Fourth 
of July activities, etc.
