CUTE COTTAGE CLOSE TO SHORT SANDS BEACH AND TOWN

A cozy, private cottage close to the beach and town. So convenient. Hope to come back again!

Our stay started off a little rocky with some disappointment in the overall accommodations at the cottage. There was a very "bare bones" quality to the cottage with few of the expected amenities that we have had on numerous other stays in cottages in Maine over the years. For instance, there were no wine glasses available (we are BIG wine drinkers!), there was no hand soap in the kitchen or bathroom, no bath mat, no hand towels and only a partial roll of paper towels and a partial roll of toilet paper for two people for the whole week. I expected these things to be available because the only items we were told we needed to bring was bath towels, sheets and pillows. I did reach out to the owner and he quickly got the missing items together and brought them over to us. His quick response was very much appreciated and we were able to relax and settle in. The cottage itself is located approximately a 3-4 minute walk to Short Sands beach...which was a big plus. There was a private deck out back which we appreciated. All in all the week was good.

The cottage had all the amenities we needed and was in walking distance of the nearby beach and lighthouse area. The drives to area towns, beaches, and the mountain were short enabling us to take in numerous activities. Our host was inviting, gracious and was available for any questions of the area and property. We now know why people come back to this area often.

Cute little cottage close to short sands beach and downtown. Perfect for 2-4 people. Lovely outdoor private sitting area is a bonus! Small gas grill would be better than the charcoal grill provided but we didn't use it anyway. Would definitely rent again and would highly recommend it!
