Cozy Cottage

The Cottage was clean, bright and cozy. We were just feet from the stairs to the beach. Our host was readily available if we needed her. I would certainly stay there again!

Excellent in every way

The cottage is charming, clean, and every comfort is available there. It was the perfect place to visit the beach and fall asleep to the sound of the waves after a day of walking the beach and enjoying the sand. I needed nothing that was not provided in the cottage. A dream come true.

Love this quaint oasis by the sea!

We have the most amazing stay in this adorable cottage. It is small, for sure, so my two young kids were going a bit crazy when inside, but these times were rare as we took full advantage of the beach being right in the back yard! Communication with Lori was easy and quick - she is a fabulous host! I am a fresh back surgery patient and the bed was too soft for me, so I did sleep on the couch in the upstairs which was firmer. If you do not enjoy a soft mattress, maybe bring a foam topper? Overall, I could not recommend this cottage more. Cannot wait to go back next year!

Gem on the coast of Maine

Such a wonderful location and place. We spent a relaxing and beautiful long fall weekend and could not have enjoyed it more. No crowds, amazing beach, and the perfect cottage just steps away from the beach. I can't say enough great things about Lori. She was incredibly accommodating, easy to communicate with, and just a lovely host.

Magical

We had the BEST time! Absolutely loved this cottage the beach the area. Every detail exceeded expectations. It was myself and my daughters… 7/9/13. We spent a lot of time at the ocean playing in the water and sand. They loved trying out the boogie boards in the ocean. It felt like our own private oasis. Not many people around. We hope to get to come back. We made memories to last forever!

We were so incredibly happy with this sweet little cottage. All of our needs were met and the location is perfect. We were both impressed w the cleanliness and can’t wait to return. We wish we booked a few more weekends before it filled up! Definitely making it our Memorial Day tradition!

About the host

Hosted by Lori Gallivan

I own the property with two close friends. We love it here and thought others would love it just as much!

Why they chose this property

This is such a special place. I don't know what I love more, falling asleep to the sound of the waves or waking to the beautiful sunrise!

What makes this property unique

The Private Beach is what's most amazing. There are 4 homes on our property and only those occupying the 4 homes can use the beach all the way down to the water. You'll never want to go to a public beach again!
