Follow the narrow driveway from Long Beach Avenue to reach this single-level home, which you'll enter by way of the cozy front deck. Step inside to unwind in the window-lined sunroom. There's a washer/dryer in the first bedroom to take care of your swimsuits and towels and a Netflix-equipped TV in the living room for your evening entertainment.

Cute Little Cottage
Very nice and cozy cottage! Right down on the beach and large sidewalks to get around. Didn't realize it was so close to Nubble Lighthouse so that was a plus!

Cute home
We loved the location and proximity to beach and ogunquit! Cozy home decorated so cute.
We found this property to be very clean and bright, and quite spacious for 2 of us. The location is perfect, just across the street from the beach and provides a little bit of an ocean view from the sunny enclosed front porch. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend to others.

Love the view
While not immediately off the beach, there is a clear view of the ocean from the sun room and front deck. The location is very convenient to explore Maine and Massachusetts. Very happy with the accommodation.
We enjoyed this property immensely. The communal spaces are large and open, while the bedrooms were so cozy. The ocean is right across the street and absolutely gorgeous. The location was right near everywhere we needed to be (we were in town for a wedding). We flew into Boston and getting to the rental from there was very easy. Would absolutely stay here again!
We enjoyed the space and bright sunny rooms of this property. The kitchen is very well supplied, and was used often throughout our week-long stay. The bedrooms are very comfortable. The bathroom is a fair size for 2 people to share, and it provides plenty of towels and quite a bit of storage. The sunporch facing the beach is sunny and very enjoyable for both dining and relaxing.

The cottage was exactly as posted. The cottage was very clean, close to the beach. It had comfortable furniture, including the beds. From the sunroom you could see the ocean. Looking forward to booking the "Lil Cottage"next year.
Excellant location to see the Nubble, walk the beaches (try to avoid idiots that can't keep an animal on the leash), easy walk to great restaurant (Lobster Cove), or a little grocery store.

York, Maine vacation
I had a short, 3 night stay in York, Maine. A very nice, clean and well stocked cottage. Right across from the beach and a restaurant right next door. Also within walking distance to coffee and breakfast. I really didn’t even need to get in my car if I didn’t want to. It honestly felt very comfortable and homey. I highly recommend!

cute and comfortable
Across the street from the ocean. Small cottage, but very comfortable and very clean. In mid October , many stores and restaurants have closed for the season, but those that remained were close and good.
Cottage had a nice flow to it! Plenty of room with a fairly open concept. Location was perfect for us. We appreciated the view from the porch as our 87 year old mom was able to sit outside and hear the waves and to see the ocean. Everyone in neighboring homes were friendly, which added to our short vacation…
The property was close to the beach…just across the street so an easy walk and transport of beach gear. There was adequate parking of a small sedan, a jeep, and an suv. The house was clean, with plenty of towels and blankets. The kitchen was clean and well appointed. The mattresses comfortable. There is a washer and drier. Easy communication with owners. Close to restaurants. Lovely stay!
