Aug 11, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing! Please don't think about a motel or a hotel, or another rental. Stay here! Where else can you see and hear the ocean from your bed. And, walk out onto the deck and be virtually suspended over it, feet from the waves. That was the the amazing part of this little cottage. It was also -clean as a whistle and it had everything you could want. Beautiful linens and very comfortable beds, and a well appointed kitchen, though we didn't use it. A lovely treasure. I am so grateful to have stayed here and to have gotten my up close "hit" of the seashore! It is exactly as advertised. Thank you! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/500f2b7e-2ffe-45ed-ac80-576786ba29cc-1754880345611.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Jane-Holly W.

Aug 16, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Return stay We stayed in this cabin on our very first trip to Maine in 2019, and we returned this year with our son. The cabin is rustic but well-curated, it's cozy and quiet...and the view is unbeatable. We had a challenge with the WiFi-no access for the first 24 hours. Wendy and her team were extremely responsive and worked to get a technician out quickly. This normally wouldn't be a problem (who comes to Maine to stare at a screen?!), but given the lack of cell service in the house, it made me a bit uneasy to have no real form of communication in an emergency. Ultimately, no big deal in the grand scheme and like I said-the team worked very quickly to resolve. I highly recommend walks along the King Phillips Trail loop-beautiful views, and really lovely people along the way. Thanks for a great stay! ##### Jennifer B.
