About this cottage rental

The Quintessential Cozy Maine Cottage – steps from the beach in the most beautiful location in a charming seaside neighborhood on a private road across from a conservancy area for added privacy and quiet. It is a two floor, two bedroom, two bath cottage. Lovely, well kept, updated interiors on private road with water views. Two new parking spaces recently added (2020) for easy access.

Just minutes from the city of Portland but feels like miles from any city on a private road in a lovely Falmouth Foreside neighborhood. You are a short walk to the famous Town Landing Store and 15 minutes south of Freeport Village shopping. Everything you need for the perfect vacation week. pak-n-play, beach towels/chairs, Fire pit on site.
Parking for two cars. Notify me if there will be more than 2 cars or additional guests so that I can make accommodations.

Quiet private Maine Cottage near private Beach: A week is not enough time to enjoy the beach, tour the coast, take a windjammer sail up in Camden, shop in Freeport, antique your way through the charming villages along the coast. There is downtown Portland with its Ferry boats to the islands. Visit quaint Kennebunkport, 1/2 hour to the south. Enjoy our wonderful Maine seafood restaurants. The very best adventure is to kayak along the coast. I have 2 kayaks. Even beginners can get the hang of it. At the end of the day bring the fire pit and wood to the beach for a sunset cocktail. Charming seaside neighborhood and private beach will help you get away from it all.

Cleanliness was an issue as has been mentioned in prior review. After a supposed “deep cleaning” we arrive with mold throughout shower tiles (upstairs), cobweb on lamp shades, sticky flooring etc. nothing we could not clean up but hey we paid for cleaning! Place is tired and overfilled with STUFF making it necessary to move these out of the way in order to lay out our own things from suitcase. Beds were lumpy, pillows inexcusable and bedding overfilled with pillows everywhere. Feels like you are living in an overstocked antique store with no room to actually enjoy and relax kitchen is well stocked but e writhing was stuffed into drawers for you to search and find. Air condition are not window units but free standing room units that barely cooled the place. Turbo fans were caked with dust on the blades and were insufficient. Recommend: 1. Knife sharpener please non of the knives cut 2.bug screens on all the windows please not just a few windows. Lack of bug screens prevented us from cooling the house by opening windows to establish cross ventilation resulting in need to keep the A/C units running thru the night in August.3. Please remove some furniture from the unit. It may look nice to photograph architecturally but it is not livable for 4 adults. 4. The place needs a DEEP CLEANING. We left the place cleaner than when we found it! 5. dial on gas range is loose. Any light touch to knob causes gas leak. This happed twice once with us waking to gas smell in unit: safety issue

Great location with private beach, although the inside was smaller than what the pictures showed.

We had a very nice time at the cottage. It was well equipped for what we needed, and furniture was in good condition. The layout had some challenges, such as living area on second floor (difficult for elderly parents to go the steps), and we knew this in advance and made it work. The front door layout is a bit inconvenient to get in and out when carrying things such as luggage. Overall, very nice place to stay, and we enjoyed our trip. Thank you!

We had a wonderful trip and this property was a big reason for it. It had a great layout, very comfortable sitting area, two bathrooms allowed four adults to not be in each other's space.. Just steps from the water and geographically located close to more than we had time to see. The host was very quick to respond to questions. Communications and instructions from the host were frequent and clear. Would go back tomorrow.

This was a lovely and comfortable place to stay. Beautifully appointed, close to the water. Because we loved it so much, instead of eating out, we purchased steamed lobsters locally and brought them back to the cottage to eat after have wine on the patio. Would recommend it to anyone.

It was a great location. There were excellent restaurants within a few miles and Portland was only about 15 minutes away. The owner had superb taste in her decorating and the view was lovely. All of the furniture was very comfortable to sit and sleep on.

The owner, Marie, was very timely in her responses and extremely pleasant. The house is adorable, comfortable and well equipped. The location is perfect and in an area of beautiful homes as well as a gorgeous bay. We highly recommend this property....although we would like to keep it our secret.

We thoroughly enjoyed our four night stay at Falmouth Foreside. The location was ideal for our day trips to Portland and Freeport. The house had everything we needed for a comfortable and very pleasant stay...very warm and welcoming. The house itself is charming and sits in a unique and "Mainesque" setting. We had two couples and found plenty of towels, dishes, seating, etc...We spent a couple evenings on the outside sitting area, drinking wine by candlelight under the starry skies...absolutely beautiful!

We enjoyed Marie’s ocean cottage. The house photos are very accurate. It would have been nice to have a deck/ porch to sit on to view the cove but i didn’t expect it based on the photos. The cove is a 2 minute walk snd u can see it from the kitchen windows. The bed was siper comfortable, great hot water and pressure. We rnjoyed the kayaks and the kitchen amenities. Marie’s restaurant and local attractions were helpful. Parking is a little funky but doable and we had a good size SUV. TV and internet worked well. It would s also a nice neighborhood , friendly people and very safe feeling
