We really enjoyed our stay ( 2 adults and 3 children). Derek and Julie were great hosts who were easy to communicate with, answered all of our questions and made this cottage feel like home for our trip. We loved all the decor in the cottage. It was close to many beaches and activities and the kids loved playing pickleball at the court (right behind the cottage) and swimming in the community pool. We would definitely rent again!
We had a great stay at this location. House was exactly as pictured, amenities were on point, weather was great and we enjoyed both the pool and the pickleball courts.
For such a short stay we loved it! Highly recommended
Great 👍

Thank you for your review Megan and hope you and your parents will return.
This was the perfect cottage for my husband, son and I! It was beautiful, cozy and had all that we needed. We loved how accessible it was, to everything we wanted to do nearby. The pool was also a huge plus. We will look forward to booking again!

Thank you so your review. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. We hope you come back and stay again.
Wonderful all around! The cottage was cozy and clean full of plenty of beach toys & supplies, if needed! Loved the amenities offered within the property-has something to offer everyone w/different interests. Very responsive & helpful hosts too!
This is the third time we've stayed and it's wonderful every time. Great location, easy communication with hosts, lots of space and very clean. Highly recommend.
Our family with two young daughter's enjoyed our stay at Julie and Derek's cottage. The Beach Dreams complex was great, we enjoyed the pools and clubhouse as well as the beaches nearby. Just a 5 minute drive to downtown Ogunquit restaurants as well. Our daughter's were very comfortable in their bunkbeds, and my wife and I were able to enjoy the sunroom during the day and at night. Definitely recommend staying here!
The house is lovely with beautiful beach decor.
The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was great. It was a good location, a short ride to ogunquit. We enjoyed some evening swims in the pool. Overall we had a fantastic time.
Stayed for 10 nights, like we do every summer vacation. First time at Beach Dreams. Love the quiet, private pool and how central it was to everything. Hosts were very attentive and responsive. Would highly recommend!
The cottage was absolutely Beautiful and very homey. Decor was so cute! Well stocked and comfortable. Thank you so much....we will stay here again :)

Thank you for your kind words. We are so happy you were pleased. We hope you are able to come back for a stay next season. Wishing you and your loved ones safety and healthy.
We enjoyed our stay! The community was friendly and well maintained. The cabin was right on the tennis courts which did get used after dusk a few times and was located at the very very back of the property. The hosts were responsive and great at communicating.
Our stop at Beach Dreams was the perfect location to break up our trip home between Acadia and Connecticut. We enjoyed all the amenities of condo living and the surrounding area. So much to do and see! We loved Perkins Cove and the Marginal Way. The condo was clean, comfortable, well-stocked and most enjoyable!
What a wonderful cottage! It was EXACTLY as pictured on the site. The whole place was warm and welcoming - could totally imagine staying longer (easily) and certainly want it to be a place to go again for a 'girls weekend'.
