Cute cottage.

We are a family of 4. We were pleasantly surprised by this small cottage. It had everything we needed for our short stay. It was very clean. We thought we would be tripping over each other, but we made it work. The area is very quiet and beautiful.

About the host

Hosted by Michael k lovejoy or Patricia Lloyd

Host profile image
We live in upstate NY but fell in love with Maine's people and beauty. We have to keep working for quite a few more years (hoping to win the lottery)- so we rent year round. We take pride in our property and are responsive to any of our renters needs. We ask that you leave our home in the clean condition that you found it in, so all tenants can enjoy. Our property is fully furnished and has all the amenities of home!

Why they chose this property

It's close to everything! It has ocean access from the river.

What makes this property unique

Saco River has some great Striper fishing. Other things to catch are squid, Pollock, mackerel, eels, and blue fin tuna. Sea Duck hunting in the fall/early winter. Our try for some puddle ducks on the river.
