We really appreciated walking on the beach... quick dips in the ocean, the stars, sleeping we the ocean sound, and the discovery of the sand beach at low tight is just amazing.

The facility and the location met our expectations, the price for two nights was a bit steep. Loved the proximity to the beach!

We had a wonderful time. This is our 2nd year coming and we just love it. Communication with owner was great. The only thing missing was fly and mosquito spray. They were awful after the storm. Everything else was fantastic! Thank you for another great memory.

We had a perfect stay. It was our first time in Maine, and we are sure glad we chose this hidden secret on the beach! Property manager made themselves available and always communicated. We will go again!!

Popham Beach is amazing! As a busy professional, I have needed some time to relax and recharge. Although the weather wasn’t as cooperative as I hoped, being rather cold and windy the first days and rainy on the third, it meant I had the beach basically to myself each day when I ventured out. Not spending all day on the beach also gave me time to visit some of the nearby attractions, such as Fort Popham, the Maine Maritime Museum, the Botanical Gardens, and the Wiscasset Antiques Mall. I highly recommend staying at the cottage on Popham Beach during the shoulder season when you need a little peace and quiet!

Absolutely beautiful location. Deb was very fast to respond and incredibly accommodating. My old dog loved being able to come with us . It was wonderful to be able to access the beach , fort and island so easily with three young kids . We saw a triple rainbow over the ocean our first evening there Cannot wait to return.

It doesn’t get any better…… the beach, sounds of the waves crashing 24/7, and an adorable beach cottage. Deb and Jim are pros, the cottage is super clean and very well stocked. I appreciated that the linens and towels were supplied and having access to a washer and dryer is wonderful! We will be back for sure!!

Most amazing views!
Our stay here was exactly what I was looking for. Quiet, serene, and it nourished my soul. The cottage was spotless and was equipped with everything I needed to cook meals with. Linens were crisp and cozy. The gas grill was antiquated and therefore inoperable, but I was informed a new one was on the way. Hearing the waves crash from our cottage was a delight. Our puppers loved the walks on the beach towards the fort and back, daily, as did we. Not a lot of restaurants near by, we were there just before Memorial Day so it suggested we were off season, the ones that were close enough, closed rather early. It's good to call ahead or check the web for details.
Having the fireplace took the chill out of the few brisk nights and made things cozy.
The stars at night? Well, let me tell you, I saw more stars because of the remote dark skies and they were literally outstanding!
I found this entire experience to be one that I want to repeat again and again. Thank you Deb and Jon for our stay.

relax, refresh, renew
Once again I had a wonderful time at the cabin with two of my dogs. I love staying at the end of the season when we have a chance to see some stormy weather by the fire... what a way to relax. We also got to have a bit of sunshine and warmth and we enjoyed the little deck and the magnificent view. I so appreciate how tidy the cabin is, and I especially enjoy the fireplace when there is a nip in the air. The beech is stunning, the neighbors with their pups were courteous. I appreciate the clarity of the guidelines given for dog owners. For me it is the chance every year to truly unwind with my dogs enjoying the beauty, power, and peace of the ocean in a settling where I don't need to worry about anything.

Truly wonderful!
This beach is amazing! I’ll never go to the Cape again after discovering this little hidden gem. It was perfect for our family - our 2.5 year old and my husband. The place was well appointed and had everything we needed. Highly recommend. This isn’t a place where you can eat out every night and have nightlife but just a very relaxing place directly on the beach. Can’t wait to return!

Wonderful site. Cannot imagine a better beach get-away.
Good overall. Really needs an outside faucet and hose to deal with sandy pets. Otherwise, perfect.

This property was exactly as advertised. Great views of the ocean, everything I needed was in the cottage. Loved being right on the ocean. Deb was super responsive to any questions. Would highly recommend to anyone who wants a beach front vacation.

Amazing location and beautiful cottage
We stayed at driftwood cottage for 4 days and my only regret is that we hadn’t booked more nights ! The location is perfect, on a beautiful beach where we had long walks with our children and our pup. The cottage is very pretty and has everything you need for a relaxing stay. The owner was really nice, she always answered our questions within the hour. We will definitely come back !

Wonderful getaway spot!
I spent a quiet week off season and could have been happier. Walks on the beach, enjoying the sun from the little but functional front deck, and taking in the ocean. Deb and her daughter had the place tidy, well appointed, and stocked.

Stayed here for a weekend getaway and it was exactly what we needed! Its located right on the beach so we took tons of walks and enjoyed the beautiful view. Its quiet and feels very private but also close enough to the town of Bath in case you need anything. We were here in early April so the nights could still get cold but the cottage stayed warm and cozy. Would highly recommend and would definitely stay here again.

Such a wonderful place to experience the maine coast
The cabin was so very neat and clean and well equipped! I very much appreciated the guidelines given to all who stayed as our time here was peaceful. I am so grateful to all who are willing to rent to people for whom our dogs are our family, and your guidelines made it easy to maneuver around other renters who also had dogs. Everyone was so respectful, kept their dogs under their control making it incredibly stress free. I personally loved having the cabin with the fireplace as it was a cozy option for the rainy and chilly days. The beech was specatular, so much to see and you can walk for miles. I absolutely loved my time there! Recommend!

Beach cottage
Gorgeous beach steps from the front door, easy to run back in for snacks etc. Miles of smooth sand to walk along, we had fun collecting sand dollars at low tide. Cute cottage with lots of amenities. Pretty off the grid, perfect for a pure beach vacation and my 4 year old wasn’t bored.

Perfect to relax and unwind
The property is exactly as it is in the pictures: very nicely decorated, has everything you need for a week's stay, and unbelievable views of one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Took nice walks with my dog down to the Fort in the morning and had amazing seafood every night. Deb was very easy to work with--especially appreciated given all of the uncertainties around travel during this particular time. Am already looking forward to planning another trip!

Beach Cottage
We had a lovely stay in the Popham Beach cottage. The area is absolutely beautiful with gorgeous beaches and dunes. The cottage is small but very comfortable and efficiently laid out with all the important things one needs. Deb communicated effectively and helped make the whole process seemless and painless. We hope to stay here again!

Very nice accommodation gives access to a legendary beach. We had a nice relaxing time. There are a lot of rules in the community, but owner made it all right for a guy that prefers a more rustic experience.

Amazing mini-vacation
We had a great 3 nights at this cozy cottage which is in an amazing location right on Popham Beach. One of our days was very rainy but we didn't even mind very much because it was such a comfortable environment. I can definitely recommend this place!

Cottage at Popham Beach
Cozy cottage with round-the-clock access to a rare Maine beach. Steps away and just over the dune is the miles long sand beach. Next time we will walk the sand bar out to Fox island (at low tide). We enjoyed our stay.

Popham Beach
Delightful cottage and location! It really is right on the ocean. Enjoyed walking the beautiful beach, walking over the sandbar to Fox Island at low tide and visiting the small villages of Wiscasset and Damariscotta. It is very dark when walking from the parking lot to the cottage at night so bring your trusty flashlight. Would love to visit this cottage again.

Wonderful vacation cottage!
My mom and I loved our stay at this cottage. It was our second year staying here, and we hope to come again in the future. Clean, cute, comfortable, private...and best of all, on the beach! The owners are clear and communicative and make the process easy. Looking forward to coming here again!

Popham is always great!
Have been going to Popham since ‘89 staying at Oceanview CG. Rented this cottage the last few years it was part of the CG. It has always been relaxing to have the beach so close, especially with the sound of the crashing waves sleeping at night. The updates that have been made has made it much more comfortable and relaxing! It has pretty much everything needed to make the stay worry free.

Fabulous vacation
If you are looking for the perfect location for easy access to the beach, long walks on the beach, a lovely cottage, and great seafood nearby.....this is the place for you. The beach is practically out your front door. You can walk for miles in either direction. We must have found 100 sand dollars while walking. The restaurant is literally 2 minutes down the road with terrific food. We will return!!!!

This has everything you need to relax and enjoy the beautiful coast of Maine!
