My wife and I loved this cottage, which absolutely lived up to its billing. The house was immaculate and nicely renovated, with plenty of nooks and crannies for our two pre-school age children to explore, and spacious, easily accomodating our party of four with room for more if needed. There was a lovely lawn for them to play on and well back from the road so we felt secure about letting them run around without having to be constantly vigilant... although truth be told there's probably more foot and bike traffic than car traffic. The neighbors on both sides were friendly and an uncrowded (tidal) beach with sea creatures aplenty was a 5 minute walk away. There was great wi-fi although we tried to avoid using it - the only minus, if you consider it that, is that cel service is not great, but that's true of Pemaquid in general and we preferred feeling untethered from our jobs. Long Cove has amazing views in every direction and that relaxed, unhurried feeling that you remember from when you were a child and summer seemed to go on forever. We can't wait to go back.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0
