Beach cottage at end of quiet street offers a peaceful beach getaway.

At the end of a quiet lane, just steps from the beach, our cottage is close to all this amazing neighborhood has to offer, yet secluded enough to provide the perfect spot for a quiet vacation. Our home is family friendly and we will consider pets.

This sun filled cottage offers 2 1/2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a front and back deck, a grill and a large yard.

Spend the day at the beach, get goodies at Scratch, dessert at Scoops Ice Cream. Stroll to local restaurants for dinner: David's, Joes Boat House, Salt Water Grill, Elsemere BBQ, Thai Taste, Enios, walk the quaint neighborhood streets and come back to the Myrtle Lane cottage for the rest of the evening.

My sister and I had a lovely five days at this cozy cottage a few steps from the beach. We loved the quiet ambience, the short walk to a great bakery in the morning (Scratch), the mornings and evenings watching the boats entering and leaving Portland Harbor, and the proximity to several restaurants in the area such as lunch at The Tiidewater Grill overlooking Casco Bay. But mostly we enjoyed being in a quiet, community while still near to a large city (Portland) if we chose to explore it. The cottage was small but certainly pleasant and comfortable---and the community friendly (although except for our walks on the beach, we seldom saw anyone!). Maine is filled with interesting sights. One of our excursions was to the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens in Boothbay Harbor, which we would highly recommend.

Stephanie, the cottage owner, was incredibly helpful, informative, and responsive to our questions. We definitely would return for a most pleasant vacation!

Excellent property location - walk to beach - short ride to downtown Portland

Our family of two adults two children loved our stay here! You can’t beat the location - walk to the beach with your stuff, scoot back to the house quick to make lunches - we also walked to Scratch Bakery (amazing!) and for ice cream. Two miles to Fort Williams Park (we went daily for exercise and the views). True beachy house with everything you need. Stephanie was a wonderful hostesss and contact too!

Wonderful vacation spot!!

Stephanie and Peter were great host. I have stayed in many other homes in different states and have never met any of the owners. Stephanie welcomed us shortly after we arrived just to make sure we had everything we needed and to say hi. I enjoyed Willard beach so much. Very cool to be able to just walk to one of the many lighthouse. I would definitely rent this house again. Can't ask for better host and location for a great vacation.

Willard, South Portland, ME, USA

Our cottage is nestled in the lively Willard Beach neighborhood, steps away from Willard Beach and a five minute walk to Willard Square, home of the yummy Scratch Bakery and Scoops Ice Cream.

People come to our community to enjoy the quiet beach and all our neighborhood has to offer as well as the short drive or bike ride across the bridge into downtown portland for the museums, restaurants and cafes.

This is a very family and dog friendly community.
