Cozy, spotless cottage with all the amenities we needed (and then some). Manager greeted us personally and inquired re our needs throughout our visit. Very friendly neighbors and lovely views from the back deck. Very relaxed, convenient, and mellow spot. Despite location on 1A, traffic was never an issue and the convenience was spot-on re walking, bike riding, parks, beaches and restaurants. We definitely recommend the property.

Perfect oceanfront stay

The house was clean, bright and airy with beautiful ocean views. We spent many hours on the back deck enjoying the salty air and sea breeze. The location was perfect - a nice neighborhood and an easy walk to Nubble Light (2 miles), York Beach (1 mile), Hartley Mason Reserve (1 mile). And an easy drive to many great towns.
