Oceanside Cottage On A Beautiful Private Beach - Enjoy Your Maine Vacation!
Quaint, Quiet, Peaceful and Picturesque - The Getaway - An Adorable Cottage steps from a Private Maine Beach. Sitting on a Beautiful Cove, this 2-Story Cottage was meant for Seaside Relaxation and Oceanside Recreation.
Enjoy coffee and tea as you awake in the morning on The Getaway's new red cedar wrap-around deck on Beautiful and Comfortable white Adirondack Rocking Chairs with gorgeous views of the Foreside waterfront. You are steps from the beach if you want to catch the sunrise and enjoy the herons, ducks and water lapping at your footsteps! You and your family and guests can also enjoy the The new Granite Lamp-Post and Patio with Adirondack Chairs, Flowers, Mini-Gardens and Lawn with Gorgeous Views of the Pleasure Boats around and about Falmouth Foreside Harbor. Explore the Beautiful Calendar Islands of Casco Bay by Ferry. Kayak and Paddle Board about the Picturesque Foreside, Beach Activities all day long or grab an Old-Fashioned Novel from the Bookcase and Enjoy!
The theme in the smaller first bedroom with a full bed, bureau and desktop with great views is and is called The Flip-Flop Room! So bring your sandals, lay back and enjoy the views!
The larger Bedroom has a queen bed and twin bed with nautical themes and great views - perfect for that relaxing Breakfast-in-Bed! The Living Room has a queen/sofa bed and newly added white Rocking Chairs which can be pulled out onto the outdoor deck! The Dollhouse has Bunk Beds, Beach Balls, Books and a Closet full of Toys for the Kids to enjoy!
But then wait ... You may want to catch walking, jogging or biking ... On The Panoramic Foreside ... and stop by to visit the famous Town Landing Market for Maine Provisions. There you can rent kayaks, canoes and paddleboards for the beach. A mooring is available at The Getaway if you are arriving by boat or have company visiting from the Harbor!
Lobsters anyone!?! The Getaway has a large fully stocked kitchen with a microwave and dishwasher. There is seating for 6 at the sunny dining room table as well as a Kitchen Island with stools for comfort. The Island is fully stocked with paper and plastic for munching on the Beach!
There is a Weber gas grill with all utensils as well as a Weber charcoal grill for guests who must "thrill to the grill." Wood provided for beach barbecues!
WiFi, Internet, a phone and three flat screen TVs located in the kitchen, living room and master bedroom along with a Blue Ray DVD and a Sony Radio/CD player are there for your pleasure.
