Cozy Cottage with Ocean Views near Popham Beach - Pets, Wi-Fi, Fishing

We have been renting this cottage for 3 years now and we couldn't be happier! We consider it our "Home Away From Home". Our family has been vacationing in the Phippsburg area for 22 years, and this is the nicest and most hospitable place we have stayed. The cottage is fully furnished with bed sheets, towels, and staples. Kathy always leaves a wonderful homemade bread or cookies to greet us on our arrival, and the cottage is immaculate. If you look at the pictures on the website they are completely accurate as to the condition and beauty of the property. Since we have experienced renting other properties in this area, we are well aware of the high mineral content of the water. Kathy graciously provides drinking water all week...something other owners do not. Wireless Internet and cable TV is available, and that is something that is NOT available in other rental places in the area.
There are many activities and attractions that allow you to experience the loveliness and down-to- earth hospitality of this area. The Waters Edge Restaurant is within walking distance, there are two excellent beaches within 10 minutes: Popham and Small Point Beach. Nearby Bath is a beautiful and vibrant coastal city with tons of culture and shopping. Brunswick is close by and offers movie theaters, The Maine State Musical Theater at Bowdoin College, and the famous Fat Boy Drive In Restaurant (a wonderful return to how life was in the 50's and 60's...think Happy Days!). We love to drive down to Bailey Island and visit the Lands End Gift Shop. Freeport is about 30 minutes away and is the location of LLBean and many other high end outlet stores. If you want a true Down East experience, the Cozy Maine Coast Cottage is the place to be. It gives you a comfortable and friendly home to return to after experiencing Maine..."The Way Life Should Be!"

We stayed at this cottage for a week and had a wonderful relaxing time. The house felt like home with everything we needed including some wonderful Blueberry Bread on our arrival. Just a short walk to the water to watch the lobster boats come and go throughout the day.
We made two trips to Popham State Beach and it was just beautiful, I spend much of my time in California on business and this beach was better than any I have visited on the west coast. Very peaceful.
We are busy working on dates for next year!

The house is beautiful, the owner is friendly, and the proximity to Popham is wonderful. BUT - you can't drink the water from the tap (owner provides water she brings from her home), the little beach is full of broken glass, plastic bottles, and other trash - so I would never have let my kids swim there or walk barefoot, and when we stayed there the septic tank was nearing full capacity - so it smelled awful every time the wind blew. I just wish I had known these things before renting.
