Charming cottage excellent location
My family and I had a great stay at this property. It was very close to the beach and not a far walk to the pier. We will definitely be back.

Great location, bright & cheerful
We just returned from our family’s yearly OOB trip. This home is in a perfect location just up from the beach. It’s nice to have a convenience store with take out food nearby. It’s easy walking distance to the pier and restaurants. We were a bit visible to the morning walkers/ joggers when we sat outside to drink our coffee but we just got used to saying “ good morning” to everyone. Overall we had a fantastic week and would definitely stay here again. Thank you Cheryl

family beach vacation
My sisters and I chose this fantastic location, relaxing charming home to stay very close to the beach in Maine. We were not disappointed. Cheryl was super friendly, helpful and easy going. We enjoyed the house amenities, a/c was super in the heatwave, grilled seafood in the fence enclosed garden patio, enjoyed walking the short half block or so to the very clean, safe and quiet beach! It was a perfect place to unwind and enjoy high quality family time!

Great house close to everything
House was cute, close to the beach, restaurants, bars and 10 min drive from grocery store. It has everything you need to cook and be comfortable. Would rent again! PS: Note that the house is grey and not red like the picture, the street number was not on the wall and the Google Map Droped Pin on the website does not bring you to the right address. Double check with owner before taking the road.
