Alan and Diana have a special place. If you want somewhere where relaxation is the order of the day then these cottages are for you. The local area is very special and our whole stay was perfect

Excellent location and dreamy views!
Our stay at Castine Cottages exceeded our expectations! We stayed for two-weeks in one cabin with two dogs and two couples. It was a cozy stay, but exactly what we were hoping for in a change of scenario from city life. The cottages are rustic and cozy, so exactly as we expected from the photos and from our conversations with the hosts, whom we chatted with ahead of time to discuss a few travel details given COVID, as they are very thoughtful in wanting to encourage tourism during this time but also be mindful of their neighbors and community. The hosts, Alan and Diana, are absolutely wonderful and work so incredibly hard to keep their property tidy, welcoming and bustling! Alan and Diana graciously helped us source the best priced lobster AND hosted a lobster broil for us (SO DELICIOUS!). They even offered to take us out on their boat for a tour of the area. The cottages are nicely spaced from one another to allow privacy, but also allow friendly neighborly interaction if desired. There were always a few pups running around which our dog loved. The property is also a short walk to Wadsworth Cove Beach (30 min walk, 5 min drive) and a bit further are various trails leading around/to Dyce Head Lighthouse. We spent a few days wading in the water at the beach and taking the pups on hikes through the Withrle Woods. On one run we even saw a black bear (from a safe distance :)) I would absolutely return to the Castine Cottages -- next time renting one cabin per couple to allow a bit more room.
