We had a delightful week in a comfortable, clean, well-equipped apartment across the street from Glen Cove beach. Anne is friendly, helpful, and easily available. We thank her for her hospitality and hope to go back.
It’s on a quite street, great view of the neighborhood, and nice walking place. Centerally located between Bar Harbor and Boothbay Harbor. She had everything you would need to make your meals.
Anne’s sea view cottage is like a home away from home. Perfect location for many activities. Great hiking within 10 minutes. The property is well stocked and maintained. Anne is great, very attentive to your needs. My second year to stay and will continue to stay here as I have family nearby.
Anne's place was very comfortable. We enjoyed seeing our state flag alongside the American flag. It was a good place to land in between activities and kept out eating expenses down. Everything was well shocked. The grill is charcoal which we don't have a lot of experience with but we managed. Thanks Anne!

Great location and apartment!
The apartment is exactly as described as well as being very spacious and with a wonderful deck for sun-bathing! Anne was very kind and helpful when needed and we enjoyed lovely beans from her garden but she didn't intrude - the perfect hostess! We found it a very relaxing place to stay and nearby Rockland had lovely shops, restaurants and delis (and a large supermarket on the outskirts). Sailing in Maine was a great end to our holiday in the States and this was a perfect place to stay!
I visit my daughter and family yearly. This is the pms rib been looking for!
Anne’s cottage met all my expectations and needs. Clean, well stocked with all you need and more. Anne was available snd quick to respond to any needs. There was room for my grandchild to visit and stay with me. Indoor outdoor games. Well stocked library as well!! Ideal location for me. A short five minute drive to a grocery store and downtown Rockland About 15 minutes from Camden. The cottages sits on a quiet street across from the water. A comfortable breeze was constantly blowing. I have been visiting my daughter and her family for about 8 years in this area. I have stayed in numerous other place. Anne’s cottage is the best and what I’ve been looking for. Will make this my home away from home!

Great value for a family vacation.
We very much enjoyed our stay at Anne's Cottage. "Sea View" is a bit deceiving but regardless it is located in a quiet area which was very pleasant for a spring stay The trees were blooming and the smell of lilacs was in the air. It is located across the street from the beach with houses and big beautiful trees blocking the view for the most part. The cottage is very convenient to restaurants and shops..
We found the cottage very clean and supplied with all you may need other than food for meals. The downstairs bedroom was geared towards children and one of the windows had no curtain. Would not think a couple would be comfortable there. The upstairs bedroom was very comfortable. Woke up to the beautiful Maine sunshine coming in the windows. The bathroom has a washer and dryer along with a tub/shower. We did have to hang a sheet over the window. LOL It is right beside the toilet and tub and when the lights are on at night it can offer quite a peep show. The neighbors are not close but we did see them out in their yards often. Easy fix and not a problem. I quess if I had a complaint it would be lack of comfortable seating in the living room. There is a nice love seat and only a wooden chair. A pretty chair but not one to relax in. Off the living room is a large deck. We very much enjoyed sitting out there enjoying nature. I would not recommend the cottage for 2 couples to stay but definitely for an affordable family trip to Maine. Since getting home I have suggested it to a few of my friends. There are not a lot of frills like you might expect from a VRBO rental but it is a true taste of Maine and very comfortable. I would definitely stay there again.
Logement spacieux et bien équipé pour la cuisine. Les lits ne sont plus de très bonne qualité cependant et il n'y a pas vraiment de vue sur l'océan. La terrasse et le jardin sont très agréables, malgré le bruit de la route qui n'est pas très loin.
The location is close to US1 yet totally quiet and peaceful. We were able to visit many towns conveniently. The apartment is large and well furnished. All our needs were met. There were games, videos and many books. A large washer and dryer were available as well.
We had one request that was taken care of immediately.
We would gladly stay here again. Anne Perschon is a great host. She offered us extra days on site since they were available, for we lost days at the front end due to car trouble.
We didn’t meet Anne face to face due to covid, but she was responsive through messaging if we had any questions or if she had info to share.
Location was ideal for midcoast activities. Quiet neighborhood, but close to everything. Laid out as described, well stocked will all the essentials plus extras in the kitchen, bathroom, and toys, very comfortable.
This is a lovely, restful place to come and recharge. The apartment was clean, organized and well-stocked with convenient items (coffee filters, tissues, kitchen utensils, games). Our thoughtful host Anne had even set out a platter for us to celebrate Thanksgiving! The spacious deck looking out to the cove was inviting and made the apartment feel even bigger. The was also separation between the two bedrooms for more privacy.
This apartment is a short drive to Rockland, Rockport, and Camden, with lots to do. We walked the Breakwater, hiked at Owl's Head State Park (magnificent!) and drove up to the top of Mt. Battie in the Camden Hills.
We enjoyed being near "Clam Cove" again, having been at various properties in this immediate area multiple times over the past 39 years. Anne's cottage is not directly on the water, but is a short walk across the road and down a path to the shore. The deck is really nice in the mornings. It was a great place to have our dog. Anne communicated well and even went out and got a croquet set for us to use!
Anne was a wonderful hostess.The upstairs apartment was very clean, quiet and stocked with most anything we might have forgotten. The residence was located very central to multiple areas in a short driving distance. Loved sitting on the deck. all in all a great place to stay.
Anne is right downstairs. The apartment has a great deck and everything we needed in the kitchen. It is across the street from Glen Cove, and close to all the wonderful towns and experiences in mid-coast Maine. We would definitely come back.

Totally loved it!
This spacious upstairs cottage exceeded our expectations. It had absolutely everything we needed and was centrally located for all of our outings. The owner was gracious and available to help with all of our needs. Would definitely recommend.

Anne's Sea View Cottage
This was a lovely cottage located in shouting distance from the water. Pretty much everything I needed as far as eating was there so I didn't have to buy things like cooking oil, vinegar, seasonings and the like. In the utility area was a full size washer and dryer so that all the laundry i took back home was clean.
With all the windows open at night there was a wonderful, cool, sea breeze that made the evenings truly comfortable. Along side the cottage Anne had vegetables planted that I was welcome to harvest as needed.
Since I needed plenty of exercise to work off all the lobster I ate, the neighborhood is a very charming place to walk with many typical Maine homes to look at, some of which were stunning.
I heartily recommend Anne's cottage to anyone.

Fun spot in a nice quiet cottage
The area is beautiful, and we had our share of lobster rolls that's for sure! Anne's Sea Cottage was the perfect spot for our first adventure to Maine, the place is set back in a nice quiet neighborhood near the water. We were close to town, also which made getting around a breeze. My family and our pup had a great visit, and stay. She has thought of everything...Kids had games, WiFi, Kitchen has plenty of things to cook meals, very nice place. We hope to return again...Thanks Anne!

Our 4th year here
This was our 4th year staying at Anne's and as usual we had a wonderful time. It dosen't matter if the weather cooperates or not, this is a wonderful location and a very relaxing time. Anne was especially helpful when a last minute emergency delayed our trip. Our 2 dogs rate it 5 paws.
We are hoping to come back next year and have recommended it to our recently retired neighbor.

Wonderful Week Away
I planned a vacation for myself and a couple of friends I went to college with (and my dog), and we loved Anne's Sea View Cottage! The house is right across the road from the ocean, so we had plenty of swims, long walks on the coast, and lounging around admiring the view either from the coast or from the deck of the house. The stretch of coast, which generally had few if any other people, had both rocks (perfect for picnics) and sandy stretches.
What really set Anne's apart, though, was how much she thought of everything in the house. The kitchen and bathroom were well-supplied with everything you'd need, from laundry soap to disposable razors to a freezer full of fresh Maine blueberries. There was firewood ready for the firepit, and a whole stack of brochures describing area attractions.

Anne's cottage is very clean and comfortable. Anne thought of everything! There are books and games for rainy days and a very well-stocked kitchen for any chefs wishing to rent. We felt at home for our week in her cottage. The location is perfect. It's convenient to Rockland and Camden which are two of our favorite towns. We can't wait to return the next time we plan a trip to Maine.
I have been seasonally renting this property since 2002. I like to make myself available to you to answer any questions you may have, to help you have your best vacation possible.
Why they chose this property
I bought this property because after renting it for 3 years, I had fallen in love. The house itself has great bones and a good vibe. It had everything I wanted in a home and perhaps it has what you are looking for in a home - away - from - home.
What makes this property unique
I loved how this property feels rural and country but is located very close to shopping and activities. It's a perfect combination.
