Quiet, clean and affordable Cottage

If you are looking for a quiet cottage in Maine to enjoy the beauty the state offers, then this is definitely a great choice - and affordable. The cottage looks exactly as the photos show, so there was no surprise there; and when we arrived everything was in its place and clean.
It was so nice to be somewhere surrounded by beautiful trees and not even see another house! The owner leaves a binder full of ideas and suggestions in the area, which was really nice, as we didn't do much research leading up to the trip. So we appreciated having some local recommendations. The kitchen had all the basic cookware and utensils you need and the property is huge and leads right down to the water.
As far as the general location. Pemaquid is small and quiet. I'm thinking with kids, it may not be the best place as there is not a lot to do, other than eat and enjoy the outdoors. Though it's not far from Booth Bay Harbor - about a 45 minute drive and there you will find miniature golf, aquarium, museums, etc. However, Pemaquid offers great restaurants and we enjoyed going to Shaws where we bought lobsters to cook at home; and also dined there. It's a beautiful little town on the coast.
