Great location and house

The location and view was beautiful. The house was cute and met most of our needs. Only complaint was the grill, but we notified the owner so hopefully that can be improved for future guests.

Peaceful Ocean Retreat

What a gorgeous spot! Even though it rained all weekend we had a wonderful stay. We loved sitting on the enclosed porch and watching the surf. Overall a very relaxing and comfortable cottage. We hope to come back!

Great location

The location of the cottage is great. It is less than a mile from Pemaquid Point beach. The beach is fairly small and was pretty quiet even when we visited it on hot days. The views from the backyard were very pretty especially at sunset.

Great space and location

Loved the location on Pemaquid point. Nice to have a bonfire on the shore and the weather cleared for a beautiful sunset on our last night. Jenifer was always responsive to our questions and needs. Don’t miss the Pemaquid Point Lighthouse. Beautiful views and interesting museum.

The Way Life Should Be

Jennifer's cottage is truly a Sea Glass Beach Retreat. It was so comfortable inside the cottage and outside the oceanfront views are awesome--Picture perfect sunsets, sailboats sailing out to the Atlantic, lobster boats checking their traps, and sealife greeting us daily -- seals and loons were a delight.

Pemaquid Trail Gem!

What a spot! Loved, loved, loved this sweet little cottage by the sea. Amazing views, sounds of crashing surf out the windows, and all the comforts of home. This place is clearly loved & well cared for, and has lots of small touches that made our stay enjoyable—firepit, picnic table, propane grill, a well-stocked kitchen (pots, pans, Tupperware, utensils, sharp knives!). Jennifer was a wonderful host, very welcoming and helpful. Would jump at the chance to stay here again!

WOW!! I had an amazing stay here! Loved the cottage, the area and all the fun things to do in the area. Jennifer had a binder with key information to make my stay easy and enjoyable. Including some tips of which places had music what nights of the week. The view out of the water was gorgeous!!! Spent hours looking at it from multiple places on the property:) The enclosed porch had the perfect chair for morning coffee and journaling. Jennifer was highly communicative and responsive when I had any questions about things. I needed to do some work video conference meetings while I was there and her WIFI rocked! Very stable and my calls went smoothly. If you have a chance to book this spot, grab it! Charming cottage with great views. I LOVED my stay there!!

Maine, the way life should be.

This property provided everything you need for the perfect Maine family vacation. Perfect location on the water in a very quiet neighborhood. Lovely simply stated home with everything you need to meet ones needs on the Maine coast. Easy access to Pemaquid light and beach. New Harbor is a picturesque harbor town that provides a grocery store with all your needs, lobster co-op, ice cream stand and the art co-op with many treasures made by the hands of local artisans. I have been coming to Maine for 50 years and stayed up and down the entire coast. I have found my new favorite place to stay and look forward to my return.

Beautiful Cottage

My family could not have been any happier on our 3 night stay here. We enjoyed the beautiful ocean views and walks along the beach. The cottage has everything we could have asked for (and more). This is our favorite area to visit along the Maine coast and can't wait to return for an even longer stay next year. It's located just an hour from where my family lives, but it's a different world!

Excellent location

The location is excellent, private beach, many wild life preserves for hiking within a 20 minute drive. The cottage is cozy, albeit a bit outdated. The bed is a full size bed, not a queen and is on the firm side, if you like that. All in all, the location is what makes this place excellent, which is really why we come to Maine. Jennifer was very easy to work with and we appreciate the history behind this special place.

Awesome views! Loved sitting in the Adirondack chairs watching the boats and the waves. And on the clear nights, more stars than I've ever seen before. Great local hikes, delicious lobster and friendly people. It was a great week 😊

Great place

Communication with Jennifer was very easy and she was very accommodating. The location is amazing, we enjoyed the garden a lot, especially the fire pit during sunset. The house is good and as described. The porch, converted into a room, is great to read while looking out to the sea. My only suggestion would be to get a bigger bed in the main bedroom. There are nice places to eat nearby and well stocked grocery store as well. Overall, great place to stay!!
