Great location and lovely cottage

We spent a couple days at this little cottage. Very clean, easy parking, central air, nicely decorated and very cozy. We found the location perfect as it was north of all the downtown congestion and we really enjoyed the short drive to Footbridge Beach and so many delicious restaurant options.

Adorable Cottage

Loved this cottage in Ogunquit and had a great time. Close to Footbridge beach (which was so beautiful) and restaurants, but in a quiet neighborhood my son and I could walk around in safely. Cottage was so comfortable and beautifully decorated. The outside shower was a bonus after being at the beach as was the washer and dryer. Everything in the house worked great and was super easy checking in and out. We loved it.

My aunt, cousins and I had a fabulous stay at The Salt Life. The place was exactly as advertised - clean and comfortable with beach cottage vibes. The owners were lovely and super responsive - even when I locked us out of the house! Lisa couldn’t have been nicer or faster to reply and take care of it. Very grateful for such a lovely few days.

Perfect first trip to Maine

Not having ever been to Ogunquit, this cottage is a perfect place to start. The house is situated perfectly to the beach, many restaurants and downtown. The air conditioning was cold, the water was hot and the house was very clean. I didn't know Ogunquit would be SO busy. We didn't use the trolley but it would be really useful for families with small kids that don't want to fight traffic for the beach or restaurants. There's a trolley stop right at the bottom of the road. Marginal Way was beautiful, The Lobster Pound was delish, Perkins Cove was cute for some Maine swag. Perfect first trip to Maine.

Great condo for family getaway

Our family stayed at "The Salt Life" for a week to enjoy Ogunquit and the surrounding area. It managed to fit our family (kids and adults) really well despite being small. It was clean and comfy, and you can't beat the location! We explored Ogunquit, York, Kennebunkport, Wells, and Portland from the cottage. Having the large yard for the condo association nearby was great for games. One note is that The Footbridge beach is walkable, but it might be a bit far for some little kids as it involves crossing a larger road. Definitely easy to walk downtown from the house, though! Overall, I would definitely recommend for anyone looking to enjoy Ogunquit!

Great cottage, great location, terrible coffee maker ;)

An adorable property, very clean, comfortable, excellent location, AC is great, the beds are comfy, the kids enjoyed riding bikes around the communal green area. Close to Footbridge Beach. A few things could be improved with more info up front. I recommend sending an email to tenants a few days before with some check in tips such as: 1) deadbolt is tricky, you need to enter the code then turn the deadbolt HARD clockwise. If you don't turn it hard enough the bolt doesn't go in all the way and the door stays locked - took us a while to figure this out and get in! 2) "things you should bring" in addition to linens, you will need bath towels, hand towels, dish towels and beach towels, trash bags (there were none and there was trash left in the trash can when we arrived...with no bag), paper towels, dishwasher tabs (if you want to use the dishwasher), mini coffee filters or k-cups (if you want use their coffee maker), any condiments you need (the fridge will be completely empty when you arrive), cleaning supplies (you are expected to wash the floors before you leave?? Never seen this at a property that charges a cleaning fee) 3)The AC (which is amazing) is off when you arrive so don't be surprised if it is quite warm when you enter - it will cool down quickly. The thermostat can be set to "Permanent Hold" or "Temporary Hold". The temp kept resetting until I found the Perma Hold function. 4) The coffee maker is terrible. The listing says there is kuerig and a "traditional carafe". There is no traditional 12-cup coffee maker. There is a one cup k-cup machine that, supposedly, can convert to a brew ground coffee. We had 3 adults who start each day with 2 -3 cups and this thing would not work right AT ALL. I'll save you the gory details but it was quite the comedy of errors. We were ready to toss the thing and just buy a new one for them. If you need coffee BRING YOUR OWN POT or buy cold brew! 5) Never did figure out how to get the TV in the sunroom to work. There is a binder in the house with instructions on cleaning, parking and garbage; instructions on things like working the TV and thermostat would be helpful. We spent a lot of time figuring out the "quirks", but the hosts were responsive and helpful. I would stay here again...and bring my own coffee pot :)

Beautiful well appointed Cottage

This was a delightful space, very clean. We did wish were closer to the ocean (my husband is handicapped). I and my children could walk it though it was a bit far with all the beach gear!! There was a miscommunication on the entry process, but I'm sure it was an isolated incident. Beautiful views, nice neighborhood.

great week at Salty Life

My family and I had a great week at this cottage. It had everything we need to fit a family of 5. Very comfortable beds and well appointed kitchen. Walk to the beach was a little further than we expected, but we brought our kids and gear with a collapsible wagon, which seems what most people do. We enjoyed our week!

About the host

Hosted by Ryan and Kimberly Orr / Lisa and James Kaveney

Host profile image

We are two sisters (Kimberly & Lisa) who grew up loving Ogunquit and decided to come together to enjoy a cottage by the water. We can't think of better memories than running on the sand, eating pb&j's, low tides, ice cream down town and walking the Marginal Way. We love the amazing restaurants, galleries, and night life OGT offers. We share our cottage with others in the hopes that you create your own lasting memories.

Why they chose this property

We take the utmost care in making sure your stay has all the comforts of home on this quiet, yet easy access to all that Ogunquit has to offer. You will also love the location to the center of town and to the most prized, easy access to Footbridge Beach.
