Long weekend
We stayed here during a long weekend and it was a cozy beach vacation. Everything we needed was steps away from the house. There was a firepit outback as well as an outdoor shower, if you are there in the warmer months., I would recommend to a small family that wants to get away and enjoy the peaceful coast of Maine.

This is a great spot for enjoying the Maine shore. Backs up to a beautiful marsh and just across the street from the beach. Hosts make it easy and the cottage is very cozy! Would definitely visit again!

Another reason to love Maine
The house was just what we needed to spend the week in Maine visiting a UNE student. Close to campus but also quintessential Maine coastal rental. We had beautiful fall weather while we were there so were able to enjoy the patio and also the backyard fire area with choice of solo stove or chiminea and Adirondack chairs and a picnic table overlooking the water. Easy access to Hills Beach, a quiet sandy beach across the street, and a short distance to Fortunes Rocks Beach. The house was clean and had everything we needed to cook a full meal and enjoy hosting a small dinner. The bedrooms were small but perfect for what we needed. We appreciated having a washer and dryer in the house and cable TVs. Host was responsive and informative. Will definitely be back!

What a wonderful place!
Joe’s beach cabin was an absolutely perfect location for may family’s trip to the Biddeford area. The space was comfortable, kitchen well stocked, and most importantly for us, the location was fantastic. Literally across the street from a wonderful sandy beach and butting up directly to a beautiful salt marsh - we only wish we could have stayed longer. Hoping to come back before too long!

Great Property and location
Just returned from a Friday-Sunday stay. It was myself, my husband, and our two young daughters. Very cute house...3 proper bedrooms and one loft (which my kids loved!). One bathroom-small but suitable. Best part of the property was the location....behind the house is a picturesque marsh...and across the street just a short walk is a very pretty, very quiet beach. We were the only ones there almost always. It is a bay area, so no waves, great for a protective mom, the kids were not as happy lol. But all sand, and really nice. House was well appointed with basically everything you need. Owner requested we bring our own toilet paper and paper towels (which should be included at house, imo...), but when we arrived they were indeed supplied, so they were not necessary. Plenty of clean linens and kitchenware. Oh-there was a great outdoor shower which I didn't intend to use but the kids loved it after the beach-a nice perk. The only critique I can offer, which really is out of the owners hands, is that the other houses nearby are very, very close. There are large windows, so there was not a lot of privacy. The other downside to this was one of the neighbors decided to throw a very loud get together that went well into the early morning....and faced all of our sleeping windows. Simply due to the proximity of their property, it did keep us awake. Bad luck I guess. All in all it is a wonderful location that we would happily stay in again. Thank you!!

Beautiful, peaceful - right on marsh
The cottage is adorable, and very clean with cute beachy decor. The backyard is RIGHT ON a gorgeous salt marsh, National Wildlife Sanctuary. Bring your binoculars! 6 Adirondack chairs surround a chiminea. Such a relaxing wonderful spot. A right of way path to the beach, ocean is right across the road. There is a nice long dog run which my dog used a lot to be out with me enjoying the yard.

Relaxing, peaceful hidden gem
This property puts you back in time. It is so quiet and peaceful, yet perfect distance to what you need. LL Bean in Freeport and Kennebunkport are so close. Many things to do. We brought our kayaks and launched both from the back of the house and across the street in the ocean. Went to Market Basket for our lobsters and steamer clams every night. We frequent VRBO's and my 17 year old son was so happy to have ice from the refrigerator, lol. The house is very clean and decorated beach style, so comfy. I didn't need a thing and I'm always the one who brings extras so I am comfortable. Nice to have real cable instead of on demand for the late evening. We bought firewood and sat by the fire. The host was great to communicate with. Gave us great advice! Definitely visit Ken's in Scarborough, it was yummy! Need to plan our next trip back!

Perfect family weekend!!
A huge thank you to Joe for allowing us to rent this little slice of heaven. The cabin was clean and cozy, we also loved the grassy backyard for our pup and enjoyed s’mores by the firepit. The location was secluded, but still a short drive from little shops and restaurants. There are definitely some gems to explore in this town! We enjoyed the beach area too, just across the street from the property. Great location and friendly neighbors too!
