About this property

The Brook Cottage ~ Cozy & Dog Friendly!


This 4 bedroom ( 2 down & 2 up ) will sleep 12 comfortably.
We can accommodate up to 14 with the pull out double sleeper couch in the bonus room. There are three baths (1 full & 2 3/4) , the home offers an open concept kitchen, living space & bonus space upstairs w/ TV.

It’s wonderful for family trips, or couples retreats. Only 7 minutes to the Sunday River access road, and very close to Mt. Abram and down town Bethel.

It is peaceful, updated and cozy but spacious enough!
To add to your relaxation there is a 6 person outdoor hot tub, and wood stove.

You are welcome to use the washer and dryer, and fire pit.
Please reach out with any questions.
We love our home and hope to share it with you!

Thank you,
Joe and Jessica Scamman

Joe was very responsive and provided us with the information needed for a seamless check-in. The house was perfect. 3 full bathrooms and 4 full bedrooms, plus an office, gave us plenty of space for adults downstairs and kids upstairs. There was plenty of space to spread out, the kitchen and living area were great, and the hot tub was very accessible off the kitchen. We will definitely stay here again!

Quiet place in a nice quiet town

We wanted a place where we could visit friends and family and this was right in the middle. The house was clean and comfortable. The only issue was the grill needed to be cleaned so we did that. Joe was great to work with and everything worked.

Great ski holiday

The house is comfy and cozy with a well-stocked kitchen: it was perfect for our group of 8! After skiing at Sunday River all day, we would come home and fire up the wood-burning stove, prepare a big dinner and relax together. Perfect spot!

Perfect Ski House

Return visitors here to the Brook Cottage. The updates over the past year are really well done and we all appreciated the fully stocked kitchen with the new appliances! The cottage is the perfect space for our group of 3 couples and some kids; and is about a 10-15 minute drive to South Ridge at Sunday River. Thanks Joe and Jessica!
