We retreated to this wonderful home for a few days with family. There is a gathering or sitting area for every need - the subdued library, the plant room, group meals in the dining room or deck, the observatory, a media area, the main bedroom with spa - and always a door to the outside and the ocean. Patrick is the best host we have ever encountered, thoughtful, responsive and caring.

Lovely Property with Private Space for All!
We had a great time and a beautiful weekend of fall weather for our family gathering. Accommodations are comfortable and there is plenty of space for everyone to find their niche. The beds and linens are very comfortable, it's quiet and the area is beautiful. We loved being able to walk to the beach area, sit and stare out at the water, contemplating all of our life choices. ;) We found the kitchen well equipped minus a supply of ice (later found in the pantry fridge unit). If you have a person in your party that has difficulty with stairs, please be advised the general living area of the home is on the 2nd level with no elevator. We enjoyed our stay and would book again!

Maine Coast Vacation (Condition of house ratings correspond to original booking owner). **
** see below: property changed hands shortly before our stay We spent a week at the “Cottage” at Passaconaway in August. There were 11 of us, two 3-generation families for an annual reunion. The house and grounds are wonderful with plenty of spaces to gather together and lots of places for quiet reading, or napping, etc. There is a private (stone) beach down a short path from the house. The location is great — walking distance to the nearest public beach We walked and biked to York where there is a larger sand beach, restaurants and shops. Lobster is available prepared in every possible way everywhere! We also cooked home several nights in the large kitchen. Ogunquit and Kennebunkport are nice side trips. We booked the property the prior January, but the house changed hands about a month before our arrival, so we ended up dealing with different owners than we had booked with. Unfortunately, this meant the the new owners, with a calendar 100% full of pre-booked renters from the previous owner, did not have time or opportunity to make repairs and needed improvements at the property. The prior owners had obviously left the property in less than ideal condition. The new owners were, however, kindly able to deal as much as possible with issues that presented themselves and very receptive to our concerns and suggestions for things needing attention. Coming from California, we were looking for a typical Maine Coast vacation, which we absolutely had. Though the house itself is large and quite grand, the area and available activities. We look forward to seeing the improvements when the work is finished and the website more accurately reflects the property. Thanks Patrick! Keep us posted.

Not ready for prime time
For a very nice house with substantial weekly cost, everything should have been perfect. It was not. Screens not installed in windows (they were stacked inside) so we could not enjoy the evening cool air in Maine. We had to use window AC units. But the "wings" on some of the window air conditioners did not cover the window openings so hot air came in. One AC unit was left on the front deck which we had to install. One lower level bedroom had no AC. Half bath on the main floor flooded, which the owner said had happened two prior times. Two different door handles came off in our hands. The master bedroom security alarm beeped most nites and also had a bright lite that had to be covered. The wine frig was broken. The lever wine corkscrew pushed corks in-- just a host of items. The owners bought the property in June and rushed to put it on the market rather than address various issues. This is my first negative VRBO review ever I am sorry to say.

Perfect for a large group
My family of 6 adults and 1 child(4 years old)had a wonderful week in Ogunquit and York. The house has 4 large, comfortable bedrooms and 2 small bedrooms(which we didn’t use). The en-suite bathrooms need to be updated. The large, open family room/kitchen area is ideal for relaxing and preparing food. We went out to dinner every night, but the appliances, cookware etc. were certainly in abundance. There are many outdoor spaces to sit and eat but most of them are worn and not comfortable. The grounds are spectacular and the tennis court was great! It is a short walk to Cape Neddick beach, but we spent most of our beach days at Ogunquit Beach. We were lucky that we had beautiful weather but the one day that it poured we hung out at the house and played games, read and did puzzles. It is extremely comfortable for that. There is one tv in the family room, but it needs to be updated. The house was just sold a month ago and Nathan, the new owner was wonderful. He answered my questions promptly and communicated that certain areas will be updated in the off season. We look forward to staying in this beautiful spacious house next summer!

Great for family retreats
This is a beautiful home with spectacular views. The home changed hands to new owners five days before we arrived in June and based on our experience with them, they were very responsive. Would want to confirm a couple things we discussed with the new owners: 1. Because the downstairs bedrooms are not air conditioned, ceiling fans would be huge help on warm days 2. Blinds have been installed in the room windows. It gets light there early Given new owners will be freshening select areas, having an updated instruction manual for home would be helpful. We would definitely stay there again!

Wow! We had a marvelous week at the Cottage. Nancy and David met us at the porte cochere and gave us a detailed history of the property, as well as a tour of the house. It’s much larger than we expected, and very spacious, so that everyone had their own private space. We ate on the beautiful deck overlooking the ocean most nights, and watched the stars ⭐️ come out. This morning, we woke at 6 am to watch the sun rise over the ocean... incredible. We were close to beaches, hiking, kayaking, the art museum in Ogunquit, restaurants... something for everyone. We went running along country roads, played tennis 🎾, bocce, and even watched a movie in the downstairs theater. We hope to stay here again.

We had a wonderful vacation here in Cape Neddick.

The stone beach on the property was a short walk from the house and the children were delighted to explore it. The public beach, a short walk away, is small with no bath houses but it worked well for us with small children. You won’t be disappointed if you vacation here!

Family getaway
We had a wonderful family stay at the Cottage. Nancy and Dave were great hosts- they gave a very detailed tour of the home so we knew where everything was and offered advice for places to eat and things to do. They live next door to the property so are very responsive to questions/concerns. The location was great. Close to many activities - you can walk to the beach and to town. Short drive to Ogunquit. Portland is approximately 40 minutes away and Salem is about an hour. Tennis court was nice to have on site. There are plenty of outdoor decks, fire pit and a private beach ( the beach is rocky but beautiful). The gardens are lovely. Keep in mind that the home does have a fair amount of steps which could be difficult with children and older adults. There is also no bathroom with a shower for two of the bedrooms. There is an outdoor shower. One big plus for us was that dogs were allowed. Everyone had plenty of space to stretch out to do things as a family or by themselves which made for a relaxing stay.

Wonderful, oversized Maine Beach "Cottage"
The Cottage at Passaconaway is a very unusual rental property ...it was built in the early 1980's by the current owners and it was built in the style of grand old cottages, but includes many modern amenities. We stayed here for a week in late June 2021 and we were joined by our 3 adult daughters, their partners and 2 dogs! It is a great place for family to converge and enjoy the beauties of southern Maine. Each couple (4) had their own bedroom and bath and there were even rooms for each dog! The entire house is curved with many outside decks to avail occupants of the ocean views.The main living area is the second floor of the house, which is accessible only via a large spiral stair case off of the round foyer. This main floor includes a huge gourmet kitchen, semi formal dining area and living room, a smallish den and the master suite wing (bedroom, huge walk-in closet and massive bathroom) plus a creek porch). As nice as it all was, there are a few issues to note...the decor and technology is somewhat dated (our daughters and partners WFH for 3 days and the internet could not accommodate their needs, so they rented a conference room at local hotel for 2 days). The main TV viewing area is small, given the size of the house. The main dining area and living room are quite formal for beach nature of the location. The house includes a "theatre" room in the basement , but the technology is dated..but it works. There is also a "gym" but the it lacks equipment. All of the couples bedroom use queen size beds..there is no king sized bed in the house (even though the rooms can easily accommodate) Also note that the accessible beach is beautiful, but entirely stone covered and swimming is very risky. There is a public beach that is a 15 minute walk from the house. The Cape Neddick golf course is a 15 minute drive...a real fun option for golfers. I must say that the owners could not be more pleasant and accommodating...they actually live next door. My only complaint is that Nancy really didn't respond to my email questions prior to arriving, but she readily picked up the phone when I called. And the fact that they welcome dogs is very unusual and appreciated. All in all, it was exactly what we had in mind and we are so glad that we had the opportunity to use this property for the week. And, its really an excellent deal for the price! Enjoy
