This was our first time staying at this house. Our main requirements included bringing our dog, and seeing water. Also, room for 3 couples (us and our 2 kids and partners). We also want outdoor space. This house had everything on our list. There are lovely views from the upper deck, where we had coffee and hung out to read. The lower deck has a large table, couch, and there is an outdoor shower and the sauna. These were all put to good use by the family in the week we spent there. Everyone enjoyed the sauna and shower (although you had to wear your bathing suit unless you wanted to give the neighbors a show).
The inside of the house had a great big living room where we hung out. The yard is unique but provides distance from the neighbors. The kitchen is small, but it was enough for our stay to use for breakfast and lunch.
My son and his girlfriend stayed in the studio. There was plenty of parking.
We felt at home in this house. Very cute decor, open atmosphere, and very close to the ocean. We did have to plan beach visits as it was peak summer, not easy to park and pricey if bringing more than one car, but this has nothing to do with the house - just some advice.
The location was great as we went to Ogunquit Beach, and did a few runs to Perkins Cove for dinner, lunch, and shopping. We also went to York Beach a couple of times, which was very close.
I would not hesitate to recommend this rental to any friends. It's as cute as it looks, and the location is great.
