About this property

Tara Cove Cottage

We’re committed to following cleanliness guidelines for our guests. We were dedicated to providing a clean experience before Covid 19 ( see past reviews over the years) and now have enhanced protocols. We are hands-on owners and inspect before our new guests arrive to ensure cleanliness.

Location, location, location! Imagine hearing the waves crashing and walking with your favorite beverage to sit and watch the waves roll in off the Marginal Way. Tucked around the corner on a private road but literally steps to Perkins Cove and The Marginal Way. Walk to the beach or jump on the trolley which is 75 steps away from your front door. This two-bedroom, two full-bath home has updated bathrooms, an updated kitchen, the furniture you want to curl up on, stainless steel appliances, a new front load washer & dryer, and more. Linens, towels, beach towels, 4 beach chairs with umbrella, air conditioning, dishwasher, and gas grill. Just buy the lobster down the street.

Cozy little house

The home is quaint and exactly as described. It’s located right between Perkins cove and ogunquit. Both very walkable. We enjoyed shopping and eating at local haunts. Love the marginal way as well! Hosts were very accessible and helpful 😬

Excellent location and the home is spacious and well designed. The owner checked in on our first full day. We had deer and turkeys in the back yard that felt like a bonus!

Nice way to celebrate 50th birthday

We loved most things about this property. The only things we felt were missing was enough washcloths for 3 people for 3 days, bar soap for showers, either paper towels or napkins to use while eating there. Otherwise, it was great. We would definitely go back again. The location was awesome to walk to shops and restaurants.

Girls weekend in Ogunquit

Perfect location - walkable to all restaurants, shops and beach. The check-in process was easy and seemless and the owner was a good communicator and timely responded to any questions I had. The house was clean and comfortable.

perfect location for Marginal Way and Perkins Cove

We loved this clean well kept up cottage with new appliances and just steps to Perkins Cove and the beautiful Marginal Way coast. It is even better than the pictures and the beds were confortable. The owner was very kind and responsive. Such a lovely find- a hidden gem of you are looking to stay in Agunquit. You can walk to shops and resturaunts and the water. An added bonus was excellent washer and dryer

Beautiful long weekend

Three generations of ladies enjoyed our stay at Tara Cove Cottage. Perfect location, walk to Perkins Cove, Marginal Way, downtown and beach. The cottage was lovely, quiet, while still close to everything. Deirdre was a delight to work with. Very communicative.

Beautiful Ogunquit cottage

The cottage was perfect for 2 couples. The location could not have been better. We loved walking to Perkins Cove for lobster and the beach was so close. We also enjoyed seeing Waitress at the Ogunquit Playhouse, the show was Broadway level with many original tour cast members. We definitely recommend this destination and cottage.

expensive for what you get

perfectly located, very well equipped kitchen but the mattresses are very soft, the garden furniture is outdated and uncomfortable, the windows are difficult to open and the air conditioning is super noisy and hardly works. Overestimated cleaning fees, in 4 days, no visits or emptying of trash cans. We didn't feel like we got our money's worth.
