Check our our New Bathroom Remodel for the Summer 2025
Come to Vacationland and enjoy a quite corner of Ogunquit at the Coole Breeze. This lovely home overlooks a beautiful, wild flower filled meadow. Sit on the patio or relax in the hammock and just let the breeze carry your worries away. It's just steps from mouth of Perkins Cove and just down end of the private way is the trolley stop that takes you to the downtown area, the main beach and nearby York. Walk down the private country road to the Marginal Way, the path that runs more than a mile along our rocky coastline with Perkins Cove on one end, the baby beach in the middle and Ogunquit Village on the other. Perkins Cove features all of the shops, fine restaurants, fishing boats and entertainment and are within walking distance. This is a great property for family vacation on private way just off the beaten path of the heartbeat of Ogunquit.
There are some very good golf courses (mini and regular) in the towns of York and Kennebunkport. The Town of York runs one trolley to Ogunquit and stops at the end or the road and can take you to York beach has the York's Animal kingdom and Amusement park.
For your Dining delights try Cove Cafe. Walk to the best breakfast in town . Try Barnacle Billy's for a traditional causal Maine Lobster Dinner and then take the kids down to the Candy Store. Or For a more formal evening try MC Perkins Cove with your S.O. ask for upstairs for the best view. Finally hit a night cap at the bar at That Place in Ogunquit and tell Rick we sent you.
We are on a private way, if you have a larger party of multiple families, there are other houses on cluster around the field also for rent. We have a loose affiliation, so feel free to inquire about that as well.

Coole Breeze was an amazing stay in Perkins Cove! Close to everything while offering privacy as well! The grill and fire pit were an added bonus that we really enjoyed! Looking forward to going back next year!

Great place in wonderful location, walking distance to everything in Ogunquit. Terrific responsive host. We really enjoyed our stay at Cool Breeze! The screened porch- with its truly “cool breeze” - was our favorite spot!

Thank you for the kind review, we try really hard for a 5 star review, so please feel free to message me for any improvements as we did not hear from you otherwise. Hope to hose you again next season.
We had a wonderful stay at this property. Owner was super communicative and easy to get in touch with. The location was great-we were able to walk to town and perkins cove, yet the house was tucked away-very private. We loved the fire pit,outdoor shower, and especially the screened in porch. If I had to find any fault with the property, is that the mattresses could use an upgrade, but otherwise highly recommend!

Thanks for the kind words. so glad you enjoyed your stay. The mattress thing is always tricky as it comes down to taste as some have asked for the brand to buy their own and for others its not their taste. But i get it and hope to host you again next year.
Its a fantastic property with fantasitic ownership. Easy to work with, close to everything, cant say enough about the experience, and I highly recommend it! We had a couple guest who had never been to Ogunquit, and they loved it! THANK YOU!

Thank you so much for kind reivew, I too love the front porch for coffee, (the blues and birds chriping). I hope to host you again next season.
Overall the house was good. It’s an older house, and that is evident in certain ways. But important elements of the house were very nice.

Thank you for the review, I am sorry we could not earn a five star review from you. I am a bit troubeld that you rented an antinque beach house and then complained it was an antique beach house (with a new kitchen and a new main bath). I also found it challenging that you did not call back when you were having trouble with the VRBO portal and that you apprarently did not read their processes or my house rules, as it was evident by your communication during the stay as well as the condition you left the house. I wish you the best but think you maybe looking for something else on your next stay in Ogunquit.
Switched out from a resort to this home just off Perkins Cove for our annual family OGT trip and it was a perfect upgrade. Walkable to everything, stones throw from Marginal Way and Perkin’s Cove, ending the day around the fire pit was perfect! So much room to spread out including a beautiful screened in front porch. Books, puzzles and board games a plenty for a quiet night in! Owners were communicative, friendly and helpful (“try the Mimosa flight at Perkin’s Cove Kitchen”!).

Thank you for the kind review, we hope to host you again next year and you can make this an annual tradition.
Our family group of six, aged 20-70 had a great time at this home! A cozy place to stay in the middle of everything Ogunquit has to offer. A true “cottage” at the beach. Very easy to communicate with owner.

Great to have you back, looking forward to hosting you again soon.
This was a very clean house with a lot of charm. We had 6 adults and 2 kids, and we all had plenty of room. It is located right down the road (a short walk) from Perkins Cove and the Marginal Way cliff walk. We’d stay here again, thanks for the hospitality!

Thank you you for the kind words, we appreciate the review, we love our location, somehow tucked away but still in the middle of everything. I am sorry the master bath shower was not to your liking. We find the claw foot tub to be a cool feature and is of the same vintage as the house so we have tried to keep certain aspects original to the keep that older country feel with a some modern updates. Hope you will stay again next season.
A lovely private property close enough to Perkins Cove, Ogunquit center, the Marginal Way and the beach. We walked and walked and loved every minute of it. We also walked over the pedestrian footbridge in the cove to the Ogunquit Museum of American Art - a very special place. Our stay was everything we hoped it would be.

Thank you for the kind review, we appreciate you letting us know. I especially appreciate the note about the a/c, it was a major investments, glad to hear it was well received. Hope to have you stay again soon.
Second stay at Coole Breeze. This house is perfect for our extended family. The AC kept us cool during this very hot humid week. Water pressure is great. Really enjoyed the outdoor shower and firepit. Thanks!

This was our best stay yet! Everything we needed was at our fingertips, it was clean, centrally located and WAY better than I had expected. The host was just awesome when we called with a slight hiccup. I would love to go back and hopefully, we will.

About the host
Hosted by Andrew Rubenstein
I am a very lucky man, my parents were kind enough to bring me to this special place when I was an infant and I have been coming at least year every since. About 20 years ago or so, i brought my (now) wife up here for the first time and she fell in love with the area. We returned frequently, and one trip during a walk on marginal way, she said "Yes" and we celebrated with dinner in Perkins Cove and a weekend in Ogunquit. Fast forward a few years and we returned to vacation up here and spend some time, our two boys have grown to love the place as well. That's them in the picture above looking over Perkins Cove after visit to the candy store. This continues to be a very special place for us.
Why they chose this property
My family have been coming up to Ogunquit for vacation for half a dozen years and we have always kept our eye out for something to buy. We knew the property was on the market and was interested in taking a look. Once we were finally in a position to buy it, someone else had mad an offer. We were crestfallen, but when we came up to look for alternatives in the area, to our surprise and delight, the deal had fallen through. We felt it was meant to be. We quickly jumped on the opportunity and then took to making our own. We have been slowing improving aspects of the property but have been trying to keep the beach house charm and character the house has. We hope you love it as much as we do.
