About this property

Across the road from Pemaquid Beach — 2-bedroom seasonal family cottage

  • OCEAN BREEZE COTTAGE — ACROSS FROM PEMAQUID BEACH (2BR, SLEEPS 4)

    A two-bedroom seasonal cottage next door to Laughton House, in Pemaquid Village on Maine`s midcoast — across the road from Pemaquid Beach State Park. Built for small families of 3-4 or two couples who want a real cottage (not a hotel room) with their own kitchen and walkable access to the beach.

    THE COTTAGE
    Two bedrooms (one queen, one with two twin beds), one full bathroom with tub and shower. A compact full kitchen with oven, stove, microwave, coffee maker, kettle, toaster, and basic cookware. Comfortable living area with a Smart TV. Dining table for four. Heater and fan provided.

    Outside: a private area with seating, picnic table, garden chairs, and a propane grill. The cottage is uninsulated and seasonal — open roughly April through October.

    WHAT`S WALKABLE
    • Pemaquid Beach State Park (across the road, 0.2 mi)
    • Mimi`s on the Beach for fish tacos (0.2 mi)
    • Fort William Henry colonial fort (0.3 mi)
    • Maine Kayak for kayaks and SUPs (0.4 mi)
    • C.E. Reilly & Son grocery (1 mi)

    SHORT DRIVE
    Pemaquid Point Lighthouse (3.5 mi). Monhegan Island ferry from New Harbor (1.5 mi). Damariscotta (15 min) for Hannaford grocery, oyster bars, and bookstores. Boothbay Harbor (35 min) for the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens and whale-watching.

    THE PROPERTY
    Ocean Breeze is one of five buildings on the property. Laughton House (the 4-bedroom main house) is next door. Three small one-bedroom cabins (Low Tide, Ebb Tide, High Tide) are tucked in the woods behind the main house in a separate cluster. Each unit is individually bookable, or the whole estate is listed separately. The cottage has its own parking and outdoor space.

    ALSO ON SITE
    Level 2 EV charger (shared, modest usage fee). Smart TV. Free fiber WiFi. Free parking (1 dedicated spot).

    ADDITIONAL INFO
    The cottage is uninsulated and seasonal — heaters and fans only, no central HVAC, no in-cottage laundry. The whole property runs on a shared well; please conserve water in late summer. We are not a pet-friendly property (ADA service animals welcome with advance notice — please reach out before booking).
    Thanks for staying with us. Please read these house rules before you arrive.

    FIRE SAFETY
    - No candles, fireworks or other open flames indoors. Battery candles are fine.
    - The fire extinguisher is in the entry hallway.

    HEATING AND COOLING
    - The wall heater in the living area, the portable heaters in the bedrooms and the extra blankets keep you warm on cool nights. Please turn the portable heaters off when you leave or go to sleep, and keep them at least 3 feet from beds and curtains.
    - Fans are provided for warm days.

    WATER AND SEPTIC
    - The property runs on a well that can run low in late summer, so please go easy on water. The showers at Pemaquid Beach are a great way to rinse off.
    - Please flush only toilet paper. No wipes, even `flushable` ones, and no feminine products.

    TRASH
    - Put full bags in the bins next to the shed, never on the ground next to them.

Wonderful Stay

My husband and I stayed at Ocean Breeze with our 15 month old daughter. It was a tight squeeze for the pack n play, but we managed just fine! The cottage had everything we needed for a HQ for exploring the area. Having outdoor seating was really nice as well! We loved the guide that was provided as well. Greg was very quick to respond and checked in often to assure we had everything we needed. We loved our time on Pemaquid Peninsula.

Lovely Cottage

We had a lovely stay and enjoyed revisiting the area. The cottage is nicely and carefully decorated and well supplied with all we needed. And it was a special treat to have a garden of lupins in full bloom outside the sitting room window while we were there!
