Fantastic property

We had a great time having our company retreat-- the views were spectacular, the house was so big it felt very comfortable and there was plenty of space for everyone. The secret room was a huge hit! Patrick was very communicative and the house was clean and well maintained.

great family holiday getaway

Great property with lots of space for our family of 9 adults & 4 grandchildren to spreadout yet all be together. Very clean, great views, well equipped, & easy to get to, yet very private. Easy check-in & check-out, with Patrick the host being very helpful with the booking, sharing property & area information, beinf available if needed, & making the whole vacation experience very seemless. Not only is York a great ME coastal town, but the properties' location was close by where we also had the opportunity to enjoy Ogunquit & Kennebunkport. Looking forward to staying here again!!

Delightful

Our stay at The Cottage at Passaconaway was everything we hoped it would be and more! This amazing house, the beautiful grounds, and the sweet owners, Nancy and Dave, all combined to make our trip so special. I could go on and on, but suffice it to say, no one could be disappointed by this delightful place!

Family reunion friendly

Great spot for our family gathering for ages 2-70! Loved the great room and outdoor decks. Nice to get back into tennis too. Short and easy walk to both pebbly beach and sandy beach which we loved even in the rain! Amazing gardens and landscaping and the fire pit was a treat in the evenings! We hope to make this an annual event!

A home for respite

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.

What a treat to get away from it all and stay and this beautiful property. We wanted a place that we could go to and still socially distance and get like we had our own private bit of paradise. So much to do. Awesome location, stunning views and wonderful hosts. The house has everything and was perfect! Loved the hammock even on a rainy day!

We planned for months for a big holiday with our entire family. The "cottage" is everything you want it to be; from the perfect layout, to the views, to the theater and basketball court. We are very thankful to Nancy and David for being great hosts on a wonderful compound.

How can delightful be over-whelming?!

The home is a masterpiece. Ocean view is perfect and a number of conversation corners in several levels of outdoor decks make the most of it. The children had places to play without disturbing the adults and we could visit with our family and local Maine friends in peace. Beautiful gardens, too.

Relaxing Getaway

This home served as a wonderful getaway for our family during this unusual COVID summer. It's roomy, with nice indoor and outdoor spaces, has a nice tennis court which sealed the deal for us, is within 10-15 minutes walk of two casual lobster restaurants, less than 10 minutes walk from a small sandy public beach and a 5 minute walk to a beautiful private rock beach. The house had everything we needed, and Nancy and Dave were easy to work with and very responsive. Just what the doctor ordered!

Loved staying here

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.

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!

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.

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!

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.
