Perfect home in the right location to spend with friends.

The cottage is ideally located near a beautiful beach. Bedsheets, bathroomes, fridge and stove were sparkling clean. However, kitchen cabinets, kitchen ceiling fan and stairway carpet need a serions clean up. We had great weather and thorougly enjoyed thé beach and the region.

We had 8 adults down for a family wedding and the Cottage at Long Sands worked out great for our 4 night stay. The bedroom & bathroom on the main floor worked for our 91 year old mom. The place was roomy enough to sit comfortably in the living room or dining area together. Kitchen could use more regular cups/glasses but otherwise well-enough equipped. And you can’t beat the location- just a quick walk to the beach and that beautiful ocean view! Needs a few more lights - or at least lightbulbs in all the lights! Otherwise - did the trick for our gang. Will also mention that the cottage is situated in a little condo community and they aren’t kidding about the two-car parking limitations. No problems with that and enjoyed our stay. Thank you!

I visited this cottage with 4 other friends. It is about 150 from the beach, though the beach is not visible from the cottage. The 3 upstairs bedrooms are very small with low ceilings, though we didn't spend much time in them besides sleeping, so this wasnt an issue. It may be an issue if you are very tall. The living and dining rooms accommodated us fine. The only big drawback was the condition of the cottage when we arrived. While the floors and beds were clean, there was old coffee in the coffee pot, baked on food on the stovetop, and wet playes in tje cabinet. We had no idea why they were wet, so we ended up washing all of them. When I notified the company handling the cottage, they did offer to send somone over to clean it, but we had already taken care of everything. I would recommend this cottage to people who want to be very close to the beach, and hope that the cleaning service improves.

The cottage was just what I thought it would be. Very cute, shabby chic. Unfortunately it was not very clean. The bathroom was somewhat clean. The beds were made up but the place was not vacuumed, smelled of stale cigarette smoke and was very dusty. There were crushed chips on the windowsill. I told the management company but no real response or resolution

We checked in on Saturday with family for a planned 50th anniversary celebration. We brought steaks after reading that the rental came with a grill. We arrived - no grill. Reached out to property manager (Vacasa of Maine) and they responded that the grill was available only May - October. I responded with a photo of the listing that did not indicate that the grill was seasonal. I requested that they fix this situation. I let them know that I would be willing to wait until Sunday to cook the meal for my parents and our family. They said they would remedy the situation on Sunday. I was never contacted in any way. I am very, very frustrated that (1) the listing items that they claimed would be available were not and (2) that they did not fix the issue as they said they would. We ended up eating out and this was a significant expense and inconvenience.

The house was great! Clean, well accommodated, excellent location. The check-in process was not good. We arrived late and the code we were sent didn’t work. A call to the property manager wasn’t helpful. Apparently new locks had been installed the week before and something went wrong. The property manager did reach out in the morning and sent someone to fix the lock. They also offered to pay for our lunch due to the inconvenience. We paid all sorts of fees to rent this great house. The door should’ve opened.

What a lovely place to stay! We loved that we were so comfortable and had everything we needed. Beautiful night walks on the beach.

Fabulous place!

House was very clean. Loved new couches. Everything we needed was there. Would definitely rent again

We had a girls weekend here. Just two of us so we had more room than we needed and felt so cozy! The cottage is set up beautifully, all the essentials were there. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again. I was looking for a place for our family vacation (6adults,2kids). The space inside was perfect except there is no private outdoor space and only the 2 parking spots so it won’t work for that, but I’d stay there again in a heart beat. So homey and cozy! Loved it.

Clean, comfortable and quiet, perfect for our group. Our second time staying here off season. Kept up to date and clean. Only wish there were instructions for the gas fireplace. We really would have loved it. Beds are comfortable and we love the long table for our crafting.

This place is spotless clean, well stocked with linens, dishes, paper products that you would need for a weekend. Literally walk around the corner of the lot and the beach is in front of you. ONLY suggestions I would have 1) leave directions for coffee pots- too fancy for me to figure out- ha! 2)make it easier to replace the door passcode lock upon checkout(we couldnt get it back as it was) A MUST STAY and we are hoping to return. Thank You for a perfect girls' weekend!

Great location and lovely cottage. However, I was surprised by the lack of attention to detail. The coffee maker was dirty. The bathroom vanity bulbs were all burned out. Two of the three bulbs on the upstairs vanity were out. The lamp bulb in one bedroom was out. The television instructions were handwritten on a piece of loose leaf paper that looked like it had been crumpled up and flattens many times. There were other notes, handwritten, on a welcome folder that had been torn in two. The kitchen faucet was stuck in spray and the control to change it didn’t work. The binder that had all of the restaurant, activity, etc. information has a cover page that indicates it was assembled in 2011. None of these things ruined our trip, and the property worked well for us…but I was surprised that they’ve never taken these simple steps to take their property from good to GREAT! All of these things are SIMPLE fixes. Again, a general lack of attention to detail!

Easy walk to the beach & quiet off season. This Cape Cod has lots of personality & you can see how it has been a favorite. It worked well for our lobster mission to southern Maine. It is worthy of noting that beyond 2 parking spots, there is no lawn or outdoor space to enjoy, like a yard or patio.

Overall the property was in an excellent location to many attractions. We could walk to restaurants, cafes and to town. Unfortunately there were some problems with the cleaning of the house upon arrival. Wine glasses were put away dirty. Slipcovers on couches could have been laundered. Carpet on upstairs was in need of cleaning. We loved the property and would be very happy to return but I think the cleaning service should be a little more attentive to their surroundings including dust bunnies under the beds.

This house was absolutely perfect for our family! Spacious rooms and very comfortable beds! Super close walk to the beach

The cottage was close to the beach. It was clean and in a quiet neighborhood.

This house was great for a girls weekend (30 years+). 2 bathrooms was key and enough beds to sleep 8 if you bunk up. We opted to bring a couple air mattresses which fit perfectly in the living room. AC worked great. Location was great although we did end up parking towards Oceanside due to tide schedule. Parking for only 2 cars was a downside and it could’ve been a little cleaner. Also the upstairs has low ceilings. I’m 5’7” and I was fine but was slightly claustrophobic. Overall we would go again with the size group we had.

Adorable cottage with plenty of room and a 3 minute walk to the beach!

Cute cottage, very clean and great location. Would definitely rent again. Terrible response time from VRBO about a couple of small issues. They responded almost a week after our stay.

This was perfect for two young families on vacation together! The upstairs is short on headroom, beware if you are tall. Comfortable, clean, and well stocked with necessities.

We had a great time. House is conveniently located to everything. Very comfortable and was very clean. The only real issue is upstairs has a low ceiling and can be a problem for anyone over 5'8".

Great!

Cleanliness, location and comfort. We had great walks along the beach, fun playing games around the table, and just relaxing in a clean, lovely home.

Great experience

Close to Kittery shops and the ocean. House was clean, beautiful, and spacious. We loved our stay!

Perfect for my family of 4 adult kids. Short walk to the Ocean.

Wonderful home! Cozy, comfortable, and perfect location.

Perfect for our short stay with 4 adults.

Cute place to stay for a few days, close enough to the beach where we could walk to it. Shower curtain on second floor fell off and Maintence tried fixing it but overall wasn’t usable so that was a bummer…also garbage can didn’t hold the bag up which was super annoying, besides that not a bad place to rent! ( big lobster pot was awesome they had available)
