Location, location, location

This house is located in a quiet wooded development with small trails for walking. The setting is lovely. And, you can easily walk to the beach or into town - a real bonus. It is a perfect vacation house for families or groups. There are multiple rooms for people to gather or to find some solitude. And, enough bathrooms that no one is ever waiting to take a shower. The kitchen is well-outfitted even for families like ours that like to cook. If you have young children, you will appreciate the fact that the hosts provide a stroller, booster seat, pack and play, toys, and children's books and movies. The hosts are helpful; check-in was a breeze. I cannot imagine anyone staying here and not wanting to return.

Great house near town!

We had a lovely stay with 2 families here in late August. The house is walking distance to town and in a beautiful perfect location. The house itself is very clean with well appointed bedrooms and decor, games for the family and a downstairs separate area with lots of toys for kids. A great spot for a family vacay!

Family time in Ogunquit

This house is perfect for our family. We have 3 generations staying together for the week and love how we can walk to the beach, into town or cook dinners in a terrific kitchen that has everything you need! The beds are very comfortable too! The kids love playing downstairs with all the toys that are supplied too! We are sad to leave but look forward to next year!

Great experience! Super clean, plenty of space for our 3 generations. Comfy beds, nice decor (with plenty of room for our own “stuff”). Kitchen perfectly equipped. We rented sheets and towels. Communication was great with very clear directions in the binder and posted next to A/C, etc. Cozy wooded setting, in a beautiful neighborhood, easy walk to village!

BEST house in Ogunquit

Had a wonderful week in Ogunquit. Stayed with our adult children ages 27, 25 and 24 and had plenty of bedrooms , seating for dinner and gathering space. House is spotless and well appointed with everything you would need from kitchen utensils to games to beach chairs /wagon . Location is perfect. Short 10 min walk to beach and restaurants in town. We loved the afternoon walks to dinner where we could choose a different spot each night. Owners were quick to reply if we had any questions. HIGHLY recommend this home nestled in a quiet neighborhood but close to everything. We hope to return in the near future.

Our third stay at Windhaven!

Windhaven has the perfect setup for our three college age/young adult kids to have friends to visit during our stay. There’s plenty of sleeping and hang out space inside, and the back patio is nice for when we want to eat meals outside. Kevin and Doug are fabulous hosts, the house is always clean and well-stocked, and it’s an easy 10 minute walk to town and Ogunquit Beach. One of our favorite features is that it’s so close go town center yet tucked away in a quiet neighborhood. We love Windhaven so much that it’s become the only place we’ll book when our family spends a summer week in Ogunquit!

Fantastic Ogunquit Vacation

We could not have asked for a better place to spend our July 4th vacation week than at the Windhaven Cottage. It more than lives up to the online description of the property. The cottage is immaculate, beautifully decorated, large enough so that any size family has ample room to spread out. A bonus is the huge family room in the lower level with adjacent bedroom area, laundry and full bath. The owners have thoughtfully provided everything needed in the kitchen to prepare any meal. Walking distance to downtown and the beach are a definite advantages. The owners promptly answered any questions we had. Windhaven Cottage would be an easy choice for our next vacation.

Great house in perfect location!

Windhaven Cottage was perfect for our holiday weekend family visit. Our kids and grandkids shared the four upstairs bedrooms and my husband and I used the basement room, which was quiet and very comfortable. We rented sheets and bath towels as suggested, which worked out beautifully. The basement living room worked well as a 2nd spot for kids to play. Nice selection of toys and beach equipment for guest use. And the location is amazing! In a quiet area with private homes about a 5 minute walk to town. We ordered take out every night and just walked to town to pick it up. It's a little over a mile to Marginal Way where we walked every day. Stunning. Highly recommend and we look forward to booking the same house for a return visit!

Gorgeous Property, Kind Hosts

This property was super convenient, absolutely beautiful and spacious for our group of 9. It had every amenity that you could think of. Doug and Kevin were so kind and left a gift for us when we checked in! They were always a phone call away if we needed anything (although unnecessary because there was nothing left to be desired) you’d be silly not to stay!

We had great communication with the owners and even received a beautiful welcome gift (thank you!!). We would stay there again without any hesitation. Again, thank you!

About the host

Hosted by Doug and Kevin

We’re Doug and Kevin, and we’re the owners of Windhaven Cottage. We currently reside in Boston, MA, but we enjoy traveling and exploring new places whenever possible. Many years ago, in our travels around New England, we stumbled upon Ogunquit and immediately fell in love with the charming village and beautiful beaches. We were also intrigued to learn that we could escape from the city to an amazing seaside village in less than 1.5 hours. After vacationing in Ogunquit for several years and spending countless weekends exploring the Marginal Way, singing along at the Front Porch piano bar, and relaxing on the sand, we finally decided we wanted a home there to call our own.

Windhaven Cottage is more than just a vacation rental. It’s our second home, and we enjoy spending as much time there as possible. As a result, the property is well-loved and feels like home, which we believe will be evident during your stay. We hope you love it as much as we do!

What makes this property unique

Location. Location. Location. You get a quiet neighborhood atmosphere with only a short walk to town. The layout of the house is also perfect for a large family or group!
