About the host
Hosted by Joe and Marie
We built the FROG (Family Room over garage) to be our weekend and vacation cottage. It served us well until we built our home adjacent to the FROG in 2015. Myself, Marie and our older yellow lab, Millie love this area. Beach, hiking, restaurants, we have it all here. We love walking the "Cliff Walk" and the "Fisherman's Walk".
Why they chose this property
I was born and raised in Portland Maine. My family moved to Connecticut when I was young. I always wanted to get back to the Maine coast. Now I am here and love it.
What makes this property unique
Close walk to the beach, local fare, wonderful area to enjoy summers. The sounds of the waves crashing against the rocks, the occasional gong of the bell buoy in the harbor, all typical of this area. Lobsters right off the boat, is the best food option. You could get tired of eating so much lobster.
