The best spot on the beach
I’ve stayed at this property multiple times over the years with my family in the summertime but this was my first solo trip in the winter. It was the perfect place to relax and recharge with my dog. They had everything I needed and even had the coziest fireplace. I’ll be back next year!

The cottage was fantastic! It’s a prime location actually within reach of the beach. Very clean and comfortable place and we spent most of our time in the sunroom enjoying the ocean sights and sounds. I understand why visitors return to this charming cottage and we hope to come back again!

Fall Getaway
This was the 3rd time in 18 months that we've stayed at the Beachfront Cottage on Fortunes Rocks Beach, and we'd like to keep coming back. The cottage is immaculate, the beach is fantastic, and even though we had rain and cloudy weather for a few days, there's always something to see and do or just kick back and relax. The beach-facing sunroom is out of this world. Our two dogs simply love the cottage and beach. My son and his girlfriend visited for two days, and they were amazed at the entire experience.

Terrific Location
Tyler met us when we arrived to show us the property and explain all the features. What an incredible oceanfront view! We ate several meals in the sunroom overlooking the ocean. The furniture was comfortable and rooms nicely decorated. The gourmet deli in the town of Cape Porpoise is excellent. We went to Sea Salt Lobster and got the lobster dinner and went back the next day for lobster rolls. Other restaurants and grocery stores are close by. We enjoyed walking the beach with our border collie and taking incredible morning sunrise pictures. We loved staying at this property! We are already taking about a return trip.

Perfect Maine Getaway
This VRBO is a classic beach cottage with lots of old-fashioned charm. The location is absolutely perfect and the best part was the porch/sunroom overlooking the surf and beach with lots of windows and the sound of the waves drifting in. It is the perfect place to hang out on the beach or take a long walk in the sand. It was a short drive to Kennebunkport with many shops and restaurants, but we were very content to spend most of our time right at the cottage.

Peace and Quiet
In March, this is perfect! Quiet, good beach walks, a few surfers, and the constant sound of the waves crashing a few feet away! There were enough restaurants and breweries open to satisfy...the owner and daughter were welcoming and helpful but not at all intrusive. The home is comfortable and the views from the porch are perfection. The new gas fireplace is great for chilly evenings! We hope to return!

Second time but hope not last
This place was exactly what I needed during the winter!!! Despite a nor’easter blowing in during our stay— watching the enormous waves was a treat. The beach is your back yard so it doesn’t get much better than that. Walking - searching for treasures- watching surfers take advantage or the post storm surge, the wonderfully warm fire place — and the sun room looking over the water makes this place prime in every sense. Nights were spent walking on beach and playing games that they had available — SmartTV also available which was nice but we spent most of our time with the waves. Hopefully will return again!!

Just an excellent place to be, even in the winter. Lovely little house, which is well-kept and very comfortable. And the sunrises... What a beautiful view! Tyler met us when we arrived, after accommodating our changing arrival time. She's a great host, who filled us in on all the details we needed to know to make our stay comfortable and easy.

… That is, if we were lucky enough to have such a place. All the other five star reviews tell you about other things, and they’re all true. What we liked was the comfort of a place that simply “felt” good. We hope to return.
