We were in town for a trade show which was cancelled. We decided to get away any way. The cottage is bright and cheerful, very clean and new. It was just the ticket for these trying times with Covid 19 . We were able to read and relax. Thanl you for sharing oyur cottage with us. Be well and healthy!

Beautiful, clean, comfortable.... great place!
This lovely cottage is in a perfect setting for a retreat! Pristine location, very clean and nicely appointed, well stocked with nice supplies, comfortable bed with great linens, thick towels.... all was great. Amy was always quick to respond to questions and even offered extra time to check out. She even left a few lights on for us since we were arriving after dark. Close to many fun and interesting sights and activities. We would definitely stay here again if we are back in Maine.

Beautiful and relaxing
This was the perfect rental to take walks with our daughter and dog, go sight seeing, enjoy the water views and just a short commute to Portland. The home was sparkling clean, stocked with everything we needed and has the most beautiful views of the water.

Great Maine get away!
My husband and I loved the solitude and sunsets! We walked the beach with family and slept like babies in the quiet, comfortable rooms after full shopping days in Freeport and Portland.
The few times we had questions, we got answers immediately. Would stay here again without hesitation.

Relaxing
We loved Birchwood Cottage the moment we walked in. It was warm and welcoming and just wonderful being able to see the water from the front windows. We were concerned that the property might be too small for 3 adults and a dog but we were pleasantly surprised. We had plenty of room for all of us and never felt cramped. We’ve been renting various cottages in Maine over the years and, for its size, this one rates at the top. Amy was wonderful to work with both before, during and after. The location on Cousins Island was great. We were able to easily travel to Kennebunkport, Portland, Freeport and Brunswick. Wish we could have stayed longer than 2 weeks!!

Great stay with the family
Visited Yarmouth for a week with my husband, one year old and golden. Amy was extremely communicative. The property is clean and everything was provided. Very quiet and secluded but close to town. Amazing sunsets off the porch. Would love to come back.

Peaceful stay
The cottage is cute and practical. It was perfect for the two nights that we were in Maine for a wedding. I didn’t give 5 stars for the location because I really can’t speak to the qualities of Cousins Island as we had no time to explore, but the view from the cottage to the bay is very pretty. The owner went out of her way to be helpful, managing to get an ironing board for me to use, which we greatly appreciated. She also made it possible for a friend to drop food off for us as we were arriving very late at night after everything g was closed. So all in all, a great stay and great host.

Wonderful place
Four adults stayed here for memorial weekend. It was perfect. I would highly recommend this place for anyone visiting this area. It was in a great location too, outside of the city but plenty close enough to get to where we wanted to visit in Portland, Freeport and Reid state park.

Adorable Cozy and Comfortable Cottage!
We stayed at Birchwood Cottage for a week! It is very warm and welcoming! Great views off of the deck. Maine weather not so welcoming...WiFi and Netflix a plus for being indoors! Amy, our hostess, is GREAT! Flexible and very Helpful, especially with things to do in the area and locally! Thank You for Everything :D

Comfy with a beautiful view
We stayed at Birchwood Cottage for a long weekend. It was clean, comfortable, and quiet. It was a perfect size for the two of us. The views of the water were outstanding; we saw two gorgeous sunsets! Unfortunately, it was quite cold so we didn't get to sit on the beautiful deck overlooking the water. Amy was very accommodating of our early arrival, and was very responsive when we had a question or two.
The location was good in that it was outside of the town of Yarmouth, yet it only took 5 or so minutes to drive there. We loved the causeway between "our" island and the mainland.
If you need a recommendation for breakfast, the bagels at Maples bakery were FABulous!
