About this cottage rental
Relax and breathe the salt air in this charming waterfront cottage. It is on well-known Bearskin Neck with a large deck and a big yard right on the water. While the shops, galleries, restaurants, and harbor are just a two-minute walk, the cottage is very private and quiet. "'Saltair" is fully furnished with one bedroom (two twin beds), a complete kitchen and a sunset across the water. It is filled with charm, history and antiques. There is parking on the property. The library and renowned Shalin Liu Theater are a five minute walk. It is a 7-10 minute walk to three beaches. The Commuter Rail and grocery story are a 15-minute walk. Every place you walk, bike or drive is bursting with natural beauty and quaintness. NOTE: the living room and bathroom floors in this funky cottage slant, so bring your sea legs :)

Ideally located for a walking vacation, and yet far enough off the main drag to be quiet and private. An utterly adorable place that just took us both back in time to childhood (60’s couple here), Saltair is awash in character and quirks, we couldn’t have enjoyed it more and hope to be back soon !
Had everything we needed and more while letting us unwind and relax.

Quaint, historic cottage with water view from deck or breakfast table. Owner and neighbors very friendly and helpful. Very close to shops and classic views of the harbor, bay, and ocean.
We loved our stay and are already looking forward to returning.

My mother and I had a wonderful stay at Saltair. The views from the porch are outstanding. Its a great place to start & end your day. The house is quirky but i like the charm of an older home. It is neat, clean, and is equipped with everything you need for your stay. The hosts are very nice and respond promptly to any questions/concerns you have. The neighbors are are all very friendly. There are two off-street parking spots which are fantastic for that location. The location is fantastic. Its a short walk to restaurants, shops, the beach, theater, etc.
I would recommend this home to any friends and family.

Celebrating our 20th wedding anniversary, this quirky cabin by the shore placed us in the perfect spot. The view is spectacular, the house is well appointed, well loved, and it's history is well preserved. The floor slants, but as long as you're sure-footed, it doesn't cause any unnecessary hardship, it just adds to the ambiance. Having everything we wanted within short walking distance made this trip an easy success. We loved every minute of our time here and will return soon!

Great one-of-a-kind cottage in a great, quaint town. Private, yet walking distance to everything. Breathtaking views and sunsets. Comfortably quirky. We'll be back!

I spent a delightful week in this sweet cottage on Bearskin Neck. As mentioned in the listing, it has its peculiarities, but it also has a beautiful setting and the best-equipped kitchen I've ever encountered in a vacation rental. Nicely laid out, excellent Wi-Fi, and very quiet despite being right in the middle of things.

A charming cottage in a perfect location. It was well stocked with all the essentials. The large picture window overlooking the harbor was picture perfect. We so enjoyed our stay and it was so relaxing.

This cottage is a dream with its great location and view. Though only 2 streets away from Bearskin Neck's main street, it is peaceful. You could spend the entire time sitting inside at the table or out on the deck, both with an ocean view. It is quaint and the living room floor does slant towards the ocean which is where I want to be anyway. Lots of thoughtful little things like kleenex boxes, waste paper baskets, mirrors, toiletries, all kinds of kitchen supplies, and a CD player. Bedroom has heavy drapes to keep out the morning light. I really hope to come back again and again.

The Saltair is charming, clean and comfortable and in a superb location. Watching the lobster boat from the front window was a treat! Carol went above and beyond from my first interaction with her to make our trip wonderful. Will definitely be back to Saltair- wish we could have stayed forever!

This rustic cottage is in a quiet and peaceful part of Bearskin Neck with views of spectacular sunsets. The neighbors are friendly and gracious. Anything one might need is within a very short walk.

The most charming cottage I've ever seen, in a perfect location. The view from the back porch is amazing, the kitchen has everything you might possibly want, and everything was clean and in good condition. I got used to the tilted floors in a day or so, they weren't really a big deal at. Will definitely stay here again if I'm ever in the area!

I loved every moment there, and would love to go back sometime.. beautiful sunrise/sunsets .. coffee in the early morning on the deck, where we spent most of our time. You have to experience it first hand to really appreciate everything about the cabin, the area. Shops are just a short walking distance from the cottage, or a short drive ..something for everyone..
