About this property
3 bedroom cottage only 187 steps away from Popham Beach!
The "Sandbox" is a lovely 3 bedroom cottage only 187 steps away from beautiful Popham Beach which offers tidal pools, islands, lighthouses, over three miles of sandy beach, and two old stone forts for you to explore.
The cottage accommodates six guests with sleeping arrangements consisting of two traditional bedrooms (a queen bed in one and two twins in the other) and a full sized bed located in our stunning enclosed sleep porch.
The "Sandbox" is nestled in the historic quaint community of Popham Village. You will enjoy strolling, fishing, swimming, hiking and collecting sea shells along the beach. If hungry you can walk only 5 minutes down to Spinney's restaurant to enjoy an oceanside breakfast, lunch, dinner OR ice cream. (Spinney's has a new owner this year, menu TBD)
The cottage has internet, games, puzzles, a propane griddle, a DVD library and a gas fireplace for those foggy coastal nights when you just want to stay in and relax. The large sunroom is not only a coveted sleeping and napping area, but, a great spot to relax, play games or simply listen to the ocean.

About the host
Hosted by Lynn Jacobs

I am a Maniac. Born in Portland, and summered in Bar Harbor where both my Parents were born. I have lived in the Vermont, San Francisco and the Florida Keys but, Maine is where I now call home. I love the smell of the salt air, the endless adventures to the small seaside villages and the abundance of festivals, craft fairs and outdoor activities.
Why they chose this property
Popham Beach is such a magical place on the Midcoast of Maine. The beach has soft clean sand with PLENTY of room to spread out your blanket and have a quiet day relaxing and watching the abundant wildlife. The history of Popham is fascinating from colonial settlements to ship building. And, the proximity to Freeport, Portland, Boothbay makes day tripping a breeze!
What makes this property unique
This cottage is nestled on a one acre lot only 1-2 minute walk to the beach. It is wonderful to have the amenity of strolling, swimming and fishing however, getting away at the end of the day and sitting on the porch listening to surf at a private cottage is the best of both worlds.
