There’s a popular phrase going around in the vacation rental world these days: “We’re a technology company that just happens to manage vacation homes.”
Well, that’s not us.
At Cottage Connection, we do use great technology, but at our core? We’re a family company that believes in relationships, local expertise, and treating homes and guests with care. Always have, always will.
People First, Always
When someone books a home with us, they don’t go through a call center. They talk to us. Real people who live and work right here in Midcoast Maine. People who know the tides, the back roads, and where the best spot is to watch the sunset.
That personal connection is more than just a nice touch. It’s how we match the right guests to the right homes. It’s how we ensure repeat visits from respectful renters who fall in love with the place and treat it as their own. It’s how we keep homeowners in the loop on everything from a dripping faucet to a five-star guest review.
Local Knowledge, Real Stewardship
We’ve been managing homes in Midcoast Maine for over 30 years, with over 75 years of combined experience on our team. We’re not interested in turning and burning rentals with short stays and careless guests. We want people to come here and live like locals—to appreciate the rhythm of the place and everything that makes it special.
Our competitors—especially the big national brands—can’t say the same. They often use out-of-state projections that ignore Maine’s seasonality. They promise homeowners inflated revenue and leave them disappointed. They don’t call when there’s damage. They don’t notice when the porch light burns out. We do.
Trusted by Generations
There’s a reason we have the strongest reputation in our area. We’ve earned it. By taking care of people. By doing what we say we’re going to do. And by sticking around.
Many of the homes in our program have been with us for decades. Many of the guests who come here were introduced to this coastline by their grandparents. That kind of continuity doesn’t happen by accident.
We’re not just here to manage bookings. We’re here to be a steward for your home, your guests, and your peace of mind.
