This cottage is located in one of the most beautiful and peaceful spots my husband and I have traveled to in Maine. The property is spacious and the cottage spotless, and the views were beautiful. Lots of hiking and cool places to eat close by. Our host went above and beyond to be respectful of our privacy and communicated with us just enough to ensure a nice stay. Thank you, Suki for sharing this special place.
this was a comfortable home in a secluded spot with everything we needed for our small family of three. epic views, sounds of the ocean, and tide poolin' in the back yard. no complaints.
