This is a very comfortable property—a quick walk to the beach, restaurants, and a little market. The kitchen was big enough to make breakfast and boil lobsters. We enjoyed our time here.

Cute cottage in the perfect location

My husband and I stayed for about a week at this property and loved it! It was just enough room for us two, and we loved having the option to cook meals in the kitchen if we didn’t feel like going out. The house is a short walk to a nice quiet beach, and is super close to all of the fun of Old Orchard, Portland, and other nice places to walk around at. I’d say the only knock is that the bathroom is super tiny, and may be hard to navigate if you are a larger/curvier person, but that personally wouldn’t stop us from staying here again.

Very Nice Stay

We loved staying here. 2 minute walk to closest beach entrance. Maybe 4 minute walk to beach with restrooms, showers and snack bar. No parking worries! Also very short walk to a couple quite good restaurants. This is an excellent location in a lovely, quiet residential neighborhood.As another guest mentioned, the bathroom is quite small. Other than that the cottage was very cute, comfortable and clean. We would definitely stay here again.

Nice little bungalow. We had everything we needed for our 5 night stay. The shower may be too small for large people. A flexible shower head would help.

Great Cozy Cottage

We had a wonderful time! The host was great and communicative. This house is located in a summer-only town, and we were there just after the season ended-meaning if you are looking for socialization and/or food, prepare for a 15+ min drive into Scarborough, which is plenty reasonable, and I did not have a bad meal the entire time. Had a great time and hope to return!

Tiny home!

This space was awesome. Bright, cozy, clean. I love that it was a 6 minute walk to the gulf of Maine, & the area was quiet. Perfect place to just relax & escape for awhile. The bed was a little stiff but overall, this space was exactly what I was looking for.

Family Beach Week

We booked both the cottage and the house for our family to stay. This gave us plenty of room for 8 adults, 4 children and 2 infants. This is the second year we have booked this property. The beach is a 3 minute walk and the neighborhood is quiet. Jason is a very responsive host and we have been pleased with the communication.

This little cottage was perfect for my best friend and I to escape to from Boston! Jason was really nice, and accommodating to all our needs! The people in the neighborhood were super friendly. It’s central and close to all the fun parts of Maine; including a quick drive to Portland. Most importantly, it’s a short and convenient walk to the beach! Perfect for a quick little getaway.

Our little cabin was just right for the two of us! Comfortable.. clean, and super convenient to everything! The walk to the beach takes about 3 minutes! The neighborhood was crazy quiet!! We could actually hear the ocean waves from the front yard. Would definitely stay again if it is just the two of us!
