This is our third stay at this amazing property. The minute we walk in, we feel like we are home. It has an open yet cozy feel and we love the kitchen. It's all ready for lobster cooking too. The owners are just lovely and we just wish it wasn't so far from Oregon or we would go more often!

Wonderful Weekend Escape

What a lovely place to enjoy a long holiday weekend away with the family. We loved the large deck for relaxing on in the late afternoon and watching the sun go down. Our boys loved the large yard for playing and relaxing on the hammock near the water. Bedrooms were nice and everyone slept well. Recommended!

Absolutely perfect Maine vacation home! The space is so thoughtfully laid out for lounging, cooking, game nights, and importantly coffee mornings and happy hours on the porch overlooking the water and sunsets, listening to the boats and birds. The cove was nice for swimming at high tide, picnic and kayaking. You MUST check out the hammock by the water. We went to Bath for the Saturday farmers market which was so lovely, and spent a day in Portland too! 100% would book again.

Amazing Maine getaway.

This was such a special place to spend our family vacation. We enjoyed kayaking, playing badminton, going to the beach and watching sunsets from the deck. We also loved spotting bald eagles and even an owl while we were there. The house was clean and well appointed. The owner was very responsive and pleasant to deal with. We highly recommend this location for a true Maine vacation!

Quiet cove with a beautiful view

We booked this wonderfully nostalgic home for a last minute getaway over the 4th of July. Everything about the house made us feel right at home. We spent most of our stay out on the deck with our feet kicked up. What a view!

Wonderful experience!

We loved our stay! Everything was as described and the property had more than we could have possibly needed. Alwynne was very responsive both prior to arriving and during our stay (we had a couple of minor questions). The house has plenty of room for family and extended family! Would absolutely stay again and it is in such a beautiful location and close to Popham beach!!

This was one of the best VRBO homes I have stayed in. The views of the sunset were beautiful, the house was extremely comfortable, it was in a quiet location, but it easy to get to the town of Bath. The hostess was so accommodating. I would definitely consider returning. It was my friends first time to Maine. They fell in love with it.

North east getaway

Property owner had great information for local attractions, go Lobstering! The property is off the main path and the kayak and water access was great way to relax just would be nice to not have to walk down the road for beach access but the view was nice from the deck. The house is dated but clean and has all the amenities needed for a relaxing stay.

Phippsburg

We have spent many vacations in Phippsburg area, but this was our first time on the basin side and it was great. If you enjoy having shops and restaurants close by, you may think you are too far out, but if you just want to enjoy having a home on the coast, you will love it.

Pleasant escape to Phippsburg

Beautiful location with water views. Short walk to picturesque cove. Relatively short drive to Popham Beach, a long beach great for walking with views of multiple islands. Appreciated addition of A/C to living area and upstairs bedrooms as it was hot (at least for Maine). Well equipped kitchen. Pet friendly so we could bring our dog.

Great spot for families

This home is in a gorgeous location. The view is amazing and the atmosphere is peaceful. We loved the hammocks on the property and the winding path to the water. House was well stocked with essentials - including window fans. We spent most days at Popham or exploring Mid-Coast area (Boothbay and Camden). Alwynne was super helpful. If you are considering Phippsburg as a vacation spot, this house is a must!

Amazing House!

This is a beautiful, well thought out, clean, lovely home. I can't say enough good things about it. It is a lived in home and not a cookie-cutter sterile empty place that is only there to make money. It is clear that people live here and that they love the house. The art on the walls is beautiful. Great location, nice beach, close to everything and yet beautifully secluded. We really loved our stay and thank you so much for sharing your home with us!

Lake view respite

My family and I very much enjoyed our stay at new meadow cove spot. The views were spectacular, there was a large living/dining area that was open and surrounded by windows. It got pretty hot during our stay so we greatly appreciated the air conditioning making things much more comfortable! The house is in close proximity to Popham state beach (with access to a state park pass), Bath, Brunswick and Freeport are close by as is Boothbay. Nice quiet location and perfect if you are looking to relax and disconnect. Alwynne was very prompt and responsive!

Fantastic spot in Phippsburg

This house is in a perfect location on the Phippsburg peninsula. Our family enjoyed swimming and kayaking from the community dock only steps from the house. Our kids and dog loved playing in the yard as we watched sunsets from the porch over the cove. Beautiful Popham beach and Fort Popham are only a 15 minute drive. Bath for shopping and restaurants is also only 15 minutes away. The house itself was comfortable, clean and well appointed. The kitchen is well equipped with all we needed. The porch and yard are both fantastic. I would highly recommend this wonderful place!

Excellent stay in Phippsburg

We had a wonderful stay at this house with extended family. We were a group of eight and we had plenty of room to spread out. We had quite a bit of rain but the house is so bright and living areas so spacious that it was not a problem being stuck inside. The house is part of a small, quiet community with a common dock area which was great for swimming and kayaking. On two evenings we had family from Portland come up for dinner and there was plenty of room for a large crowd to spread out. This is a special property with much of the original old house blended with new updates that make it very comfortable and bright. Communication with owner was excellent. We would absolutely rent this property again if ever up in the area.

Lovely historic family home

Wonderful old Maine family historic home. Beautiful upgrades to the living area and master bedroom. We loved the surrounding area. Really appreciated the AC and the fireplace. Nice walk from the house in the wooded quiet area end of peninsula. Beautiful grounds, cute nearby cove and dock, kayaks, peaceful and quiet. Really enjoyed the Popham Beach pass. Phippsburg is so cute as well as Bath, where we spent a fun rainy day (good coffee, nice shops). We highly recommend Spinneys, Trish’s pies, Winnegance Cafe. Alwynne was extremely responsive via text to any questions or issues and fixed a few minor problems immediately.

Beautiful getaway spot

We had some extended family coming for a long weekend and wanted to stay somewhere by the water. This house has a very beautiful and large main bedroom suite on the first floor, perfect for my elderly in-laws. The living/dining area was extremely spacious and comfortable with gorgeous water views, and very nice furniture. Same for the deck. The kitchen and second floor bedrooms are a bit more rustic, but that has its own charm and they are well appointed and comfortable. To get down to water's edge is a short, fairly steep hike, not for everyone, but you can enjoy the water view without going down there. Very pretty sunsets!
