The home and rooms are as pictured - very clean, tidy, comfortable furniture, and had everything we needed. Only a 5 minute drive to the Ogunquit area/lighthouse and beach. Half hour from Kennebunkport. Our stay was very comfortable and perfect - plenty of room.

Lovely and relaxing home for the whole family

We stayed at Good Tidings for our family vacation and loved our time in Maine because of it. It was very close to the beach, and within a 5 minute drive of multiple good spots to eat, 20 minutes from Portsmouth, and only 40 minutes from Portland. There was ample room for everyone, a well appointed kitchen and very comfortable beds and living areas throughout. Our hosts were extremely accommodating and helpful, while also making themselves available to very quickly answer any questions we had via text during our stay. I cannot recommend this property enough!
