About this property

Cozy beach retreat minutes from Footbridge Beach!

Welcome to The Wee House OGT - Our Happy Place!

The Wee House is our cozy spot for enjoying all there is to offer here at the beautiful place by the sea that is Ogunquit.

Location, location, location! The BEST part of The Wee House is it's location. We are a five-minute walk to Footbridge Beach, one of the most gorgeous beaches on the East Coast. People walk from miles away to spend the day at Footbridge, whereas you'll be on the soft sand in minutes. You can kayak and paddleboard on the Ogunquit River, which is just before the footbridge, or you can head straight for the waves at Footbridge Beach. You can even walk to Downton OGT and Ogunquit Beach from our beach in just 10-15 minutes!

The house is open concept with windows on all sides to let the sunshine in! You enter into the living area which has a TV with streaming services (using your login), a pull-out Queen sleeper sofa, side chairs, and an expandable table for dining and working. You'll find plenty of blankets and pillows to cuddle up with on rainy days or nights for watching movies in.

The living area opens to the fully-stocked kitchen that also includes a dishwasher, stove and fridge. Other kitchen amenities are listed in the amenities section. The bedroom features a queen sized bed, armoire for clothing and other items. Adjacent to the kitchen is the full bath with shower.

Outside you will find a grill and small deck to enjoy a cocktail and lobsters from down the street at Plum Island Lobsters or wherever you want to grab your fresh seafood! There are, however, so many dining and imbibing options in OGT you may find yourself not using the kitchen too much. In the basement, you will find beach chairs, a cooler, wagon and other beach-related niceties. The basement also has a washer and dryer for your use.

Parking is a premium in OGT so we are lucky to have 2 off-street parking spaces directly in front of the house on the gravel drive. If you're like us, you won't need to drive much as there is so much to do, eat, and drink within walking distance of our house. In fact, there are 4 restaurants/bars less than a 5-minute walk from the house. And, if you take the 15 minute walk to Downtown on Route 1, you'll hit more restaurants and bars before you hit the mecca that is Downtown. Our Welcome Booklet will give you all the details!

Come enjoy this magical place and we can assure you you'll want to come again and again!

Please note - we do not allow pets but when we stay at our house, we bring our dog. We make every effort to remove traces of him from the house but we want people to be aware that there has been a pet in the house.

The Wee House was exactly as described, The location was perfect for us, more chill with its own nearby restaurants and beach access, but still only a short walk or trolley ride from downtown. I especially appreciated how clean the house was and that everything was labeled, from switches to remote controls. Really great spot for couples or maybe a family of 3. A little tight for my family of 4 but I still want to come back next summer.

Had a wonderful week at the Wee House. Ocean St has long been my family’s favorite place to stay in Ogunquit and this little cottage is bright and clean and inviting. Had everything we needed plus lots of extra beach equipment provided which was really helpful!

Adorable, cozy cottage. A short walk to Foot Bridge Beach, with provided cart, chairs, and umbrella. Restaurants within walking distance; take the Ogunquit trolley to the village - walk back on the beach; and Congdon’s Doughnuts only a short drive away.

the location was good for us and we enjoyed the short walk to the beach . Inside the house was very clean and we appreciated the many electrical outlets for ease of charging devices. It was nice to have a table and chairs right outside for comfortable seating. Proximity to Marginal Way, Perkins Cove, a variety of restaurants and York Beach Nubble Light was a definite "plus". The interior is definitely small but we found it to be functional for the two of us.

First and for most clean!!! Description exact! Neighbors sweet, great eating short walk to beach (easy to carry whatever is needed for a beach day except they even have a wagon to use). The “wee house” is perfect for 3.
Bed fold out is great for comfort not the kind where you feel the bar.  We left bed out because we played and were outside most of the days.

Great Stay, Amazing Location

The perfect location in Ogunquit - steps to Footbridge Beach, on the Trolley Route, and great restaurants right around the corner. The house was great for our small family. The space is open, and extremely comfortable. The location was perfect as we could shoot right home from the beach if the kids got tired, or jump on the Trolley into town or Perkins cove for some food and ice cream. All around an amazing spot!!!

Walk to the beach and great food choices!

We loved our stay and had such a great time! The Foothills beach was amazing and being able to walk there was a home run! The house was great and had everything we needed. The homeowners left an easy to follow detailed book on procedures and everything you could have wanted to know about the town of Ogunquit and surrounding towns! Great place if you want to beach it everyday!

We absolutely loved our stay at the "Wee House!" It's a beautiful house in a quiet neighborhood within walking distance to the beach and several restaurants. Nisha and Mark thought of absolutely everything to make us feel at home. It was perfect.

About the host

We try to get to The Wee House as often as possible, but when we can't be there, we're happy to share it with others so they can experience the beauty and magic of Ogunquit!

Why they chose this property

We absolutely love our neighborhood. It is quiet and provides the only direct access to Footbridge Beach. Many of our neighbors are lifetime residents with whom we've established relationships, so we hope and expect that our guests will respect our neighbors and their peace!

What makes this property unique

The location - you can't get a better location in OGT than Ocean Street. It's far enough away from the downtown craziness that you can enjoy the peace and quiet of Ogunquit, while still being close enough to enjoy with just a few minutes walk!
