Recent Southern Coastal Maine guest reviews

Really loved the craftmanship in the space; the attention to detail; all of the amenities; the furniture was very comfortable; loved the fire place; and it really is a "walk to everything" location!!

I have to say we travel a lot and I loved loved loved this home. We went in December 2025 for a weekend. The views were beautiful and the location great. The home was incredible!!!!!! The host had the home stocked with eveything you could possibly need ( paper towels, trash bags, a welcome box with detergent/dish soap/ spongue, the showers even have shampoo, conditioner, body wash ). There are book shelves with books, games, toys and puzzles . I cant thank the owners enough. We had accommodations in Booth Bay Harbor, a condo that weekend and they fell through Thursday night at 530pm. Vacasa was able to find this home for us within 2 hours. The owners accepted the last minute reservation. You would never know they had not been expecting us. The home was spotless and towels laid out and the heat was already on. So thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!

The Lobster Cove cottage is quintessential old New England. The upgrades demonstrate care a desire to provide guests a special experience. That said, the cottage is more a 3-season rental than a 4-season rental. In temperatures below freezing, it's drafty and cold.
