Ideal oceanfront escape

Thoroughly enjoyable stay, view is brilliant, we loved every minute. Only feedback would be a hammock or chaise would be lovely to lounge in outside, and a pullout sofa could help with family visits because beds are a little cozy. But overall a superb stay!

Truly amazing!

My wife and I had a wonderful week at this cottage. The property is exactly as advertised and the owner was a pleasure to communicate with. We really enjoyed having our breakfast each morning on the deck while taking in the amazing view. The location was very convenient to both York Beach and Ogunquit when we wanted to venture out. And by the way, there was nothing better then listening to the ocean as we fell asleep. Can't wait to go back again.

Lovely private cottage

Pros - older house but location is key - private beach next to RV park was 1000x better than expected - owner allowed dogs but sadly this was the last year, so our pups could enjoy a getaway - house was well stocked with essentials that we only needed to really purchase our food for the week Cons - RV site was a bit louder than expected - unsure if it was due to some weather change but the house was a bit infested with earwigs, which are harmless but it was overwhelming that they were everywhere. Other than that, I would definitely rent again with my family.

Great 4th of July at Cape Neddick

Cottage was great. Large living area with beautiful view! Spent most of our time relaxing and entertaining on front deck. Went to local beaches twice,but was very content to stay right at cottage. WIFI worked great and it was nice at the end of the day go inside and watch the ball game. Thanks Bruce and Meg . Hope to be back.
