The million-dollar view is incredible and the beach is just steps away. The cottage was very well-maintained and clean. The hosts are so easy to communicate with. We hope to return next year.

This rental did not disappoint! Very well stocked kitchen. Clean, tidy location with wonderful hosts. The house stays really cool and the beach is 25 steps from the back deck. This was our second vist and we enjoyed every minute! Loved the upgrade of the sliding glass door and outside deck. We will be back!

The Maine Rose is a lovely cottage, whimsically decorated, clean, comfortable, and supplied with everything you'd need for your stay. We enjoyed every minute we got to spend by the ocean, as well as our time exploring the area. Everything worked as expected, and our hosts were quick to respond to any communication. We would love to stay there again.

Perfect get-away!

This was our 4th stay with Mark & Dawn, first with a new baby and his toddler big sister, and we will absolutely be returning. Perfect location for relaxing and spending beach cottage time with family, or heading out to Roque Island, Machias, Acadia, Jasper Beach,l and other adventures. Thank you so much for another perfect vacation!

Lovely cottage by the sea

Staying here was everything we had hoped for. We were 4 adults (seniors) and couldn’t have been more comfortable! The views were stunning, toes in the sand on beach 10 seconds from the deck! We absolutely will come again!
