About the host

Hosted by Kathleen Selevan

Host profile image
Family bought beach cottage in 1965. Property now managed by siblings family one living in California and one living in New Hampshire. Cottage is a family treasure. Many fond memories of the beautiful Maine coast

Why they chose this property

One of the original cottages built on Moody Beach in the early 1900's. It was built by the same family as is it's twin house next door.
There are less and less of the original beach cottages remaining now.
This is a seasonal cottage open only from June to October

What makes this property unique

Private beach. Wonderful beach view. Can sit on the oceanfront lawn or front porch and watch the ocean all day. Beach access with stairs and if there is seaweed or too many rocks, the public way access is only 5 cottages to the south. The tide goes out pretty far allowing for beach activities like Bocci Ball and building sand castles. High tide now comes right to the bottom of the beach access stairs.
Cottage is very rustic and casual. The outside after beach hot/cold shower helps you rinse off the salt water and beach sand.
Surfing is good right in front of the cottage if the surf is "up" If the ocean is flat then kayaking maybe in order. Both can be rented at local surf and bike shop on Route 1. In recent years some NEW owners are asking people not to sit in front of their houses since the beach is private to mean low tide. All of our close neighbors do not do this. All of the old time owners do not do this. All of the owners North of the public way near our cottage do not mind beach goers on the sand. On private beaches in Maine you can fish, hunt,navigate and walk. We have old fishing rods you can use under the house and put them by your beach chairs. Please let me know if anyone ever asks you to move. There is currently a law suit in the State of Maine to make all beaches, including ours public.
As it is a public beach dogs are allowed on the beach. Please be kind and keep them away from children and other dogs and on a leash if necessary. The public way has notices about dogs on the beach and that applies to the public way and also at the south end of the beach which becomes Ogunquit Beach
