Cute Place, Great Neighborhood
Overall we really enjoyed our stay. The area is quiet and tranquil yet just a few minutes from downtown Portland. The nearest restaurant, Dockside, less than a mile away, was wonderful. We were unfamiliar with Roku TV and were disappointed that we were unable to get a local station.

Great Family Vacation in Maine
The property was great for our family of 4. We enjoyed cooking at the property each night and playing board games or TV in the evening. The location is great for walking on the shore, and for many nearby parks that we took full advantage of with our bikes that we brought. We especially liked biking to Macworth Island State Park, and taking our bikes on the Ferry to Chebeague Island. Also, the local market had great informal lunch after one of our bikerides, and lovely ice-cream, locally roasted coffe, and wine/beer. We had a perfect time.

Reunion Getaway
This house was in close proximity to stores, beaches and short drive to LLbean and wonderful restaurants. The house itself was charming and provided us with a nice place to spend with old friends. The house itself could use some updates. No air conditioning, and very damp downstairs where bedrooms are located. Bedding was damp and signs of mold on ceiling.

Nice place near the water
Charming place with the amenities you need on vacation, a short walk to the water. Actually more spacious than I expected. The deck was an excellent spot to hang out. Minor challenges: some windows were tough to operate, and it was a dance to share one bath among our group of four, but nothing outside of expectations for an older cottage.

What happened?
Looked good at first. Took pictures on arrival to document conditions in the house. Toaster oven full of food crumbs and oven was dirty. Found a roach in refrigerator. one room smelled like urine from a chair that was dirty with stains. Bedrooms were in what was once a basement and were very musty. Pillows were stained like coffee had been poured on them for months and were unusable. We had to wash and dry all linens before leaving. Water access was standing on road and looking. We advised owner that we were leaving fresh usable foods for her to donate or for someone to use. We purchased room air freshner and stove was taken apart and cleaned after each use except unusable oven. I forwarded all pictures to owner and am waiting to see if my damage deposit is returned. Always take pictures upon arrival and departure when renting.

Loved it!
We loved our stay! Fabulous location, easy to get everywhere yet a relaxed beachy feel without the mobs of people. The cottage was very nice and clean -with all new furniture and allergen free hardwood floors. We slept great, enjoyed the cooler coastal temperatures and very comfortable beds. One room had an air conditioner, we knew it was there but didn’t need it I’m the end. Great ocean front restaurant within walking distance. Thx again! We’ll be back.
