About the host
Hosted by Suzanne Nusbaum
This is my family cottage where I spent every summer of my childhood. I live next door now in the summer. This is a traditional Maine "camp." Not luxurious but very cozy and great for a family with children. Reading nook under the eaves.

The beach is often empty. Plenty of room for softball or football or soccer.

What makes this property unique
The only tennis court at Popham. The cottage was built by my father, room by room, into the side of Rockledge Hill. Lots of privacy, overlooking the ocean.
