Robert and I are both locals who want to share a little piece of Maine with your family and friends. We strive to provide everything you need to settle in for a lovely vacation.

Why they chose this property

Our property has been in the family for over 100 years. Robert and I decided the original house could not be renovated to what we wanted it to be. We built the new house in 2000. It is not handicapped accessible due to the stairs.

What makes this property unique

Close walk to all that Ogunquit has to offer. We offer a list of wonderful shops and restaurants in town.
