We were visiting a long-time friend who lives in Falmouth. For us, the Cottage was a perfect place to meet and talk -- either in the cozy living room or the sunny enclosed porch. Very convenient to Portland. Quiet and secure-feeling.
It was a lovely stay in a beautiful location. Access to Portland was a breeze from this rental. The property was just as described and Debbie was a very kind host. Our family would easily stay here again.
The description is exactly as listed. The neighborhood was quiet and very safe. The evening walks down to the landing were wonderful. If quiet and out of the hustle and bustle of the city is what you like this cottage is for you! Communication with Debbie was great. She let me know she would not be there during our stay but someone would be. Her niece was absolutely wonderful and very hospitable. She even offered me additional cook wear and spices if needed. They both had wonderful recommendations of things to do and places to go. This was our first time to Maine. We could have stayed several more days and found endless places to visit and things to do. We would definitely recommend to friends and family!
Debbie was amazing! She walked up the street to greet us when we arrived, had fresh flowers in every room, local jelly and coffee, a helpful welcome book. The cottage is lovely and was stocked w/ not just one roll of toilet paper but enough for our stay, along with shampoo, conditioner, kitchen wraps, baggies, etc. We hosted a graduation brunch and had everything needed to prepare a meal and set a lovely table w a view of the bay. Thank you, Debbie, for sharing this special place!!
Perfect - Everything was exactly like the photos and more!
Having grown up on Falmouth Foreside and having spent lots of time at very nearby Town Landing, I already knew that this is the perfect location.
Our favorite room was the porch, where we enjoyed our home cooked meals (kitchen equipped with all you need), could smell the ocean and feel the breezes.
Debbie is a great host and made us feel right at home. We loved all of the little touches, the welcome note in the kitchen, the fresh flowers in every room, candles...
Thank you, Debbie, for the perfect stay in your beautiful cottage!
Last minute booking. All went well. It's a really cute home. Everything we needed for a trip to Maine. There is a cute store and a restaurant within walking distance. Not in a town, which was great for the getaway.
The house was beautiful and perfect for our family of 4. The location was amazing and the host was so incredibly kind, helpful and accommodating. We will definitely be back!
Debbie was a wonderful and accommodating host. She went above and beyond to make my friends' stay lovely and welcoming. I would highly recommend her charming seaside cottage to anyone looking for a place to stay in beautiful Falmouth Foreside; just a 10 minute drive into Portland!
The house is decorated with eclectic finds that are beautifully curated. The neighborhood is inviting and quiet. The trip to Portland was easy and quick so you have the best of both worlds. The host was available and helpful. My only suggestion would be a new mattress in the main bedroom and more cooling on the second floor. Overall a great place for a getaway with my daughters!
Our family had a wonderful stay at this home just north of Portland. Close drive to anything we needed, but also located in a quiet beautiful neighborhood minutes walk to the town landing beach. We loved eating on the 3 season porch and the house had everything we needed for a family of 4. Communication was excellent and we would happily stay there again.
A charming cottage in a the beautiful quiet town of Falmouth. Wonderful view of the water, close to the city, all of the amenities needed. We will definitely come back again!
Thought the picture was deceiving. Need to up date.
Loved it . Very quiet. I actually thought we could walk to the coast. But it was block. But we were satisfied. It was a great experience. Bar harbor was a bust. To much traffic. And needed a reservation for Acadia. Did not know that. Yuck
My family and I loved this house. It had a great enclosed front porch that we curled up and read books on every night. It is walkable to the town beach and town landing store. The main bedroom was perfect for my husband and I and the attic bedroom was just right for our kids ages 10 & 6. The stairs are tight attic stairs but it added to the charm. Debbie had the house well stocked (soft towels and blankets) we hope to be back!
We were greeted by flowers in every room. Comfy white slipcovered sofas and darling bedrooms. We loved being on the closed in porch with roll out windows where we ate and read and glimpsed the ocean view. Tidy and spotless. We loved our stay and will be back!
We had the best time in Maine! The cottage is so cute with fresh flowers in every room. Big fluffy comfy seating to enjoy a book or movie after a day exploring. The kitchen was well stocked and we enjoyed eating many family meals in the sunroom. Easy drive to Portland/South Portland and to the ferry to explore the islands in the Bay. Would love to go back and highly recommend!
This was a lovely respite with tons of charm. My wife took pictures of the place when we first got there so she could remember the place before we moved our luggage in. The host was very sweet. We arrived late at night and she put coffee and a little cup of oat milk out for us to use the next morning. 10 of 10! Would stay again!
Just a beautiful property! We enjoyed our stay very much! It is a quaint little house with a wonderful view of the harbor. Keep in mind that it is vintage so the bathroom is VERY tiny. One item is that the kitchen does have a garbage disposal that we didn't discover until right before we left! Consequently, lots of stinky garbage (sorry Debbie). The mattress in the main bedroom really does need to be replaced. Ok sleeping but not the best rest. Other than that it's a wonderful property in a very quiet alcove with nice neighbors. Wouldn't recommend it for a family but for a couple, it's great.
We had a wonderful stay at this cottage during the Yarmouth Clam Festival. The cottage is very comfortable, homey and so convenient to Yarmouth, Portland and Freeport. While the appliances are dated, we didn't use them during our stay. A washer and dryer are provided which is very convenient. Debbie, who lives next door, was delightful and so friendly. We appreciate the book on the coffee table which gave instructions on how to use things, places to go, restaurants, etc. The Town landing is a quick walk from the cottage and is beautiful and peaceful. We loved the Town Landing Market!
The second floor bedroom is an attic bedroom. The fan cooled the room quite well the nights we were there but the evening was cool and comfortable. On a humid night that may not be the case.
This cottage is delightful and we are glad we stayed there and had such a great time!
Working professional who lives next door sharing driveway and available for chats and directions. Friendly close neighborhood for strolls down to water. I often may be out of town attending trade shows in August and September for sales in footwear.
We are lucky enough to own two properties in the best neighborhood and we loved raising our family here. After San Francisco and Minneapolis, Portland is the perfect mix of urban options and the great outdoors.
