We had a wonderful time. This is our 2nd year coming and we just love it. Communication with owner was great. The only thing missing was fly and mosquito spray. They were awful after the storm. Everything else was fantastic! Thank you for another great memory.

Relaxation on the Beach
Popham Beach is amazing! As a busy professional, I have needed some time to relax and recharge. Although the weather wasn’t as cooperative as I hoped, being rather cold and windy the first days and rainy on the third, it meant I had the beach basically to myself each day when I ventured out. Not spending all day on the beach also gave me time to visit some of the nearby attractions, such as Fort Popham, the Maine Maritime Museum, the Botanical Gardens, and the Wiscasset Antiques Mall. I highly recommend staying at the cottage on Popham Beach during the shoulder season when you need a little peace and quiet!

Perfect Mother’s Day weekend
Absolutely beautiful location. Deb was very fast to respond and incredibly accommodating. My old dog loved being able to come with us . It was wonderful to be able to access the beach , fort and island so easily with three young kids . We saw a triple rainbow over the ocean our first evening there Cannot wait to return.

Amazing views of the best beach in Maine
It doesn’t get any better…… the beach, sounds of the waves crashing 24/7, and an adorable beach cottage. Deb and Jim are pros, the cottage is super clean and very well stocked. I appreciated that the linens and towels were supplied and having access to a washer and dryer is wonderful! We will be back for sure!!

Most amazing views!
Our stay here was exactly what I was looking for. Quiet, serene, and it nourished my soul. The cottage was spotless and was equipped with everything I needed to cook meals with. Linens were crisp and cozy. The gas grill was antiquated and therefore inoperable, but I was informed a new one was on the way. Hearing the waves crash from our cottage was a delight. Our puppers loved the walks on the beach towards the fort and back, daily, as did we. Not a lot of restaurants near by, we were there just before Memorial Day so it suggested we were off season, the ones that were close enough, closed rather early. It's good to call ahead or check the web for details. Having the fireplace took the chill out of the few brisk nights and made things cozy. The stars at night? Well, let me tell you, I saw more stars because of the remote dark skies and they were literally outstanding! I found this entire experience to be one that I want to repeat again and again. Thank you Deb and Jon for our stay.

relax, refresh, renew
Once again I had a wonderful time at the cabin with two of my dogs. I love staying at the end of the season when we have a chance to see some stormy weather by the fire... what a way to relax. We also got to have a bit of sunshine and warmth and we enjoyed the little deck and the magnificent view. I so appreciate how tidy the cabin is, and I especially enjoy the fireplace when there is a nip in the air. The beech is stunning, the neighbors with their pups were courteous. I appreciate the clarity of the guidelines given for dog owners. For me it is the chance every year to truly unwind with my dogs enjoying the beauty, power, and peace of the ocean in a settling where I don't need to worry about anything.

Truly wonderful!
This beach is amazing! I’ll never go to the Cape again after discovering this little hidden gem. It was perfect for our family - our 2.5 year old and my husband. The place was well appointed and had everything we needed. Highly recommend. This isn’t a place where you can eat out every night and have nightlife but just a very relaxing place directly on the beach. Can’t wait to return!

Amazing location and beautiful cottage
We stayed at driftwood cottage for 4 days and my only regret is that we hadn’t booked more nights ! The location is perfect, on a beautiful beach where we had long walks with our children and our pup. The cottage is very pretty and has everything you need for a relaxing stay. The owner was really nice, she always answered our questions within the hour. We will definitely come back !

I spent a quiet week off season and could have been happier. Walks on the beach, enjoying the sun from the little but functional front deck, and taking in the ocean. Deb and her daughter had the place tidy, well appointed, and stocked.

Perfect Getaway!
Stayed here for a weekend getaway and it was exactly what we needed! Its located right on the beach so we took tons of walks and enjoyed the beautiful view. Its quiet and feels very private but also close enough to the town of Bath in case you need anything. We were here in early April so the nights could still get cold but the cottage stayed warm and cozy. Would highly recommend and would definitely stay here again.

Such a wonderful place to experience the maine coast
The cabin was so very neat and clean and well equipped! I very much appreciated the guidelines given to all who stayed as our time here was peaceful. I am so grateful to all who are willing to rent to people for whom our dogs are our family, and your guidelines made it easy to maneuver around other renters who also had dogs. Everyone was so respectful, kept their dogs under their control making it incredibly stress free. I personally loved having the cabin with the fireplace as it was a cozy option for the rainy and chilly days. The beech was specatular, so much to see and you can walk for miles. I absolutely loved my time there! Recommend!

Beach cottage
Gorgeous beach steps from the front door, easy to run back in for snacks etc. Miles of smooth sand to walk along, we had fun collecting sand dollars at low tide. Cute cottage with lots of amenities. Pretty off the grid, perfect for a pure beach vacation and my 4 year old wasn’t bored.
