The location was perfect- great accessibility to Ogunquit and Kennebunkport, but away from the crowds, quiet location for sitting outside at the end of the day. The kitchen had everything we needed to make out own breakfasts and the bed was very comfortable. The pictures did not really show just how tiny the bathroom is. Our host replied quickly to all our messages.

Truly charming- this place is a hidden gem! Super cute and cozy home fit for a coastal stay. Everything was perfect aside from the shower (wasn’t the best, felt like camping), but it worked fine for us. Everything was clean upon arrival and the host is super friendly. Close to so many excellent restaurants and beaches without spending an outrageous price. Would love to stay again!
