Great cottage close to the beach

Annette was an amazing hostess.. so friendly and kind. She came to check on us and gave us lots of great suggestions of places to eat and things to do in the area. The beach is just a quick 5 minute walk away. I got to enjoy sunrises and sunsets in this lovely location❤️

Comfortable and cozy

My family stayed for two weeks in August. We had a great time. The house was the perfect size for us. It was also walking distance to the beach and several restaurants so we didn't have to do much driving. I worked remotely one week and the internet was excellent. Renee even made the extra effort to get a new modem that could handle higher speeds. We would definitely stay again.

Maine getaway

Highly recommend the area. Amazing food, beautiful views from restaurants in walking distance, and easy access to Rt 1 or beach. House is smaller than expected but for our needs worked well and was able to have a lot of outside fun there

Cozy Coastal Getaway

We really enjoyed our time in this picturesque little coastal neighborhood, and this homey little cottage brought us plenty of charm and atmosphere. Everything was quite enjoyable, though the beds and bathroom were a little on the smaller side. However, it wasn't too hard to readjust, and our host was very gracious and easygoing! She even extended our checkout time for us to make it easier to work around with our afternoon flight. A wonderful place to stay, and one which we'd gladly visit again sometime.

Perfect!

We had a lovely short stay at Renée’s cottage. We have a nearly 2 yr old and a 3.5 yr old and all the accommodations made it easy. And such a short stroll to the beach! My oldest loved the arcade just a short drive away. I can see how this would be the perfect place for a longer stay in the on-season when everything’s open. Thanks so much Renée!

Cute cottage, great location!

Our group of four women in our 30s had a great time staying at the Cottage. Renee was a very communicative host and made our stay very enjoyable. It was nice to have several places we could sit and hang out (living room, kitchen table, covered porch table, outdoor picnic table). The Cottage is located in a quiet part of Scarborough and a 5 minute walk to the beach. We drove just 10 minutes down the road and spent an afternoon at Old Orchard Beach which was fun (and busy) and it was really nice to come back to the Cottage for a relaxing evening. Renee let us borrow some beach chairs which was very generous of her. We would definitely stay there again.
