Steps to Sandy Beach and Open Ocean Views

Our second stay at Drift Inn Cottage and as perfect as the first!!This is a rare and exceptional property; clearly loved by the owners and so well maintained. The cottage grounds are lush with visual interest everywhere you look. And right out back, the amazing setting and views of Drift Inn Beach. We love the enchanting atmosphere and decor in the main house as well as the bunkhouse. Plenty of blankets/throws for cool days. A downstairs a/c unit, and portable fans for unusually hot days. The kitchen has upscale appliances with all the cooking gadgets you need. The beds are super comfortable with beautiful linens. Plenty of games and activities for family fun both within and outside the cottage. From the comfort of the back porch we watched the lobstermen working out on the water in the early mornings, or sailboats passing by later. It was also our favorite spot to sit in the evenings with a beverage, listening to the calming sounds of the surf. Fun to wander around on the beach or chatting with the small number of beachgoers that come there at low tide. This property both soothes the soul and rejuvenates the body and mind!! Hope to return for a third visit in future!

Everything was amazing. The house, the location, the kindness of the hosts. We came in with lots of questions and they helped us with everything. But everything you need is at the house. We can’t wait to go back!

Wonderful property. Great location. We had a very enjoyable stay.

We spent a week at Drift Inn Cottage in late August and found it to have everything we needed for a relaxing time at the ocean. My daughter, son-in-law, and two granddaughters shared the space (granddaughters chose the bunk house), and we were all impressed with the thoughtful additions that made our stay so simple. It was a real convenience to have basics (some sugar, flour, oil, vinegar, spices, etc.) available at the cottage. All of us enjoy board games, and we brought a few with us. Such a pleasant surprise to find so many others there. The little girls had never played Pictionary and wanted to give it a try. My husband started cutting up bits of paper, brown paper bags, etc. to draw on, only to discover pads of paper clearly marked for Pictionary. The owners seemed to have thought of everything! Beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well equipped, the hot water worked, and we enjoyed the television, sound system, availability of a computer and Wifi. Having rented a fair number of vacation homes in this country and abroad, I have to say that Drift Inn Cottage was the best equipped we've encountered. I loved the stunning gardens; looking out at the moonshine over the water and ducks swimming in formation was a real treat. While we didn't have any rain during our week on the Maine coast, some days were cool, and we used them to visit Monhegan Island, the Farnsworth Museum, climb Mt. Battie, and eat a few lobster rolls along the way. A great week in every way!
