This was the perfect little Maine cabin getaway! Wonderful location right on the water that offered endless wildlife and beautiful views. Great location close to town if you needed anything but perfectly quiet and peaceful at the cabin.

This rental was very quaint and in a beautiful location. The pictures in the listing are very accurate. We spent our time hanging out on the rocks reading and enjoying the view. The location was 5-10 minutes from stores and restaurants. We would definitely recommend this spot.

Eagles and osprey daily

This home was very charming, clean, comfortable. Homeowners even had a welcoming message and bottle of wine for us upon arrival. the addition of kayaks on the property and the ever present osprey and eagles, and occasional seals, made our stay even more enjoyable.

Perfect place for watching eagles and ospreys and terns--with the peaceful lapping of waves. The kitchen is very well equipped; bed and seating are comfortable. The water pressure is iffy but mostly OK. I did buy bottled water for drinking. These are minor problems more than made up for by the location.

Location, location, location!

Cottage was as advertised. Right on the water with 3 options for enjoying the view- the deck, the lawn or the rocks. It really doesn’t get any better than that. In addition, very convenient to the downtown Brunswick and easy access to the highways that take you up and down the coast. Very well equipped, very clean, very quiet. The only thing I would suggest is that the bed be upgraded. Squeaky, and uncomfortable. But overall, I would highly recommend this gem

Mixed Review

On the positive side the view from the deck of the bay, birds, and wildlife was fabulous. The location is also excellent. On the negative side the water is undrinkable and water pressure varies from too low for a shower to none at all. The bedroom is too small; no place for suitcases. The floors are slanted and uneven. I have stayed in maybe twelve VRBO's and have never had issues like this.

Peaceful Getaway

Stayed at "Driftwood Dreams" over June 19-22 and had a wonderful time. For being so close to Brunswick (about 10 minutes) the cottage is amazingly peaceful. Right on the water, a few other cottages/houses around, but not much noise from them (the adjoining cottage was empty for most of our stay, that may change things). Able to launch kayaks into the sound/inlet directly from the property. Lovely deck for coffee in the morning/cocktails in the evening/bird watching. Well appointed for a couple, well decorated, very comfortable and thoughtful. I highly recommend. At all breakfasts at the cottage, and 1 dinner. Supermarket close by, as well as downtown Brunswick. Sunrises are BRIGHT, and it's buggy at night. Water pressure is DEFINITELY low, and showers are quick. Photos of the property are accurate and well represent what you'll find. Definitely a special place, and great for a getaway weekend.
