PLEASE NOTE:
✫ We provide a starter supply of essentials (shampoo, body soap, hand soap, paper towels, and toilet paper), coffee, sugar, and creamer to help you settle in.
These items are intended to get you through the first few days of your stay. If you anticipate needing more, please plan to bring additional supplies.
✫ In the back cottage bathroom, the water heater supplies enough hot water for approximately 10 minutes. This is normal for its size (which is about half of a
normal water heater) but please be aware of this when planning your showers. We're sorry for the inconvenience and we are actively saving to replace this
unit. Please note the bathroom is also fairly small (though normal for Hampton Beach).

Please note our cottage is on the main road leading into Hampton Beach. It can get very busy with traffic but it usually calms down by the evening.

FYI - We have a Ring camera on the exterior of our property facing the outside of our entrance. This is to keep all guests safe and to keep the property secure. We also use a Minut noise monitor that only detects decibel levels and DOES NOT record. This is to prevent parties and keep the peace with our neighbors :)

The Neighborhood:
Busy but residential area with street leading directly to the beach. Most are full-time residents so please be respectful of noise levels. Disturbances to our neighbors and breaking house rules will not be tolerated. Note: We do a background check on every guest.

Getting Around:
Almost everything is walking distance away. If you need a CVS, hospital or urgent care, you are minutes away right down Rt. 101.

Other Things to Note:
Please be mindful of our neighbors during your stay. Our property's quiet hours are in place to ensure that everyone can enjoy a peaceful night's sleep. We care a lot about maintaining good relationships with our community, so we appreciate you following our "house rules" during your stay.

Absolutely no parties - immediate cancellation without refund if noise complaints are reported.

We are committed to Rent Responsibly standards. This means we follow best-in-class guidelines to ensure you have a peaceful, safe and memorable stay with us. We use smart home technology to improve your experience. NoiseAware is a smart home device that measures volume levels throughout the property and allows us to respond to noise nuisances without disrupting your stay. NoiseAware is 100% privacy compliant and is required on this property. There are also two outdoor security cameras for your protection. If you have any questions, please ask. We are committed to your comfort so please let us know if we can do anything during your stay to make it more enjoyable.

You must at least be 25 years old to book.

FYI - For guests bringing pets, please clean up after them. We will be requesting additional payment for any extra clean up from your pet. (The pet fee - $100 per pet, only covers additional cleaning to make sure to get all pet fur by double washing all linens, wear and tear on flooring/carpets and furniture). No more than 2 dogs allowed.

Interaction with Guests:
We are here for you during your stay, but our level of interaction is up to you. I'm only a phone call or message away. You will be able to self check-in upon arrival.

Great location

This was our first trip to HB and we didn't entirety know what to expect. This location was perfect because it fit all of us well, was super comfortable, and an easy walk to everything while also being just far enough away that night times were calm (which we were a little hopeful for with the kids in our group). The owners were very quick to communicate and help with a couple little things that came up. My family is talking about going back next year.

Beach weekend

This property is a very quick walk down to the shore! We rented both front and back cottages to which we all were very pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness as well as how homey it felt. There were lots of amenities that helped us so much with having multiple children with us. A soft gate to block the front stairs, a beach stroller/ cart, pack n’ plays in both houses, as well as beach toys to use! We had a great time thank you again!

Simply a great time!

Party of 14 from California, Texas, Oklahoma, Colorado and of course NH had a great time here. Both houses were well stocked with the necessities. We had no reason to reach out to the owners for anything. We ate all meals on the porch to have an extra cozy family feeling. Great location to everything on the boardwalk.

Great location

We rented both the front and back cottage and both were as advertised. Very clean and comfortable. Rooms were small but spent most of our time on the large front porch. Chris was very quick to respond to any questions and the location was fabulous. It was a short walk to the beach and many restaurants within walking distance.

Amazing stay!

Two great cottages with lots of character. Chris & Meg were very cordial and responded to our questions pretty quickly. Super close to the boardwalk and beach. My family highly recommends this stay. Can’t wait to visit again!

About the host

Hosted by Chris Petzy

Host profile image
My wife and I are from New Hampshire and love living near our 18 miles of coastline but have traveled globally as far as Kazakhstan. We enjoy embedding ourselves in different places and cultures and learning new things about the world and we're excited to share a little bit about our world with you :)

Why they chose this property

We bought this property because we love where we're from (New Hampshire) and the beautiful coastline it has to offer. We think it's the perfect place to bring a family, relax and enjoy the summer air.

What makes this property unique

The porch is the perfect place to take in your coffee, enjoy the morning sunrise over the Atlantic. Have a big family? Enjoy having two cottages to split the crew up at night and have your own space for sleeping. Need some beach time? You're a 5 minute walk to the sand! Need to grab a bite or want to check out the Strip, you're just 5 minutes away from all the buzz Hampton Beach has to offer. What are you waiting for? Grab this spot before it gets booked!
