I was so sad to leave! Our week at DotSea was wonderful and relaxing. The waves crashing on the rocks below are hypnotic, and the view is outstanding. This is a really special place, we would return in a heartbeat.
To speak to more specifics:
The house is a basic cottage, but very well equipped, clean, and welcoming. Plenty of dishes, utensils, cooking tools, and spices. The DotSea binder had lots of great info and guidance and the owner was extremely responsive. The wifi was super solid. There is a small tv screen with a first gen appleTV, which was totally sufficient for the rare times we put something on in the evening. The weather and outside temperature vacillated quite a bit during our week and the house had good fans as well as cozy heating blankets to cover all possible temps. Be advised there is no AC and the hot sunny days heat up the cottage quite quickly- good days to get out of the house and hit the beach. The Queen mattress was fine. The daybed in the living room was great for reading on the cooler days. We used the very nice binoculars to check out the lobster boats and identify the ducks that came by every day.
We utilized the gorgeous private beach within the association which was a minute away by car or a short walk. We also used the complimentary state park pass for Reid. There is also a great freshwater lake 15 min away in Arrowsic (Sewall Pond) for legit swimming if the ocean is too cold.
I could go on and on.. suffice it to say, this was a great rental and would recommend it highly!
