Very friendly and helpful - thank you!

A perfect property to kick back, relax and soak in nature. Then when you feel like it, the touristy centers are not that far away.

Melba spent a fair bit of time with us helping us choose another property for 2016. We really appreciated her time, her knowledge and her willingness to work with us! 2015 was the second year we rented from CC and we are extremely pleased with their offerings and the wealth of details and photos of each house on their web site.

The house we rented in 2015 was spacious, quiet and with a lovely view overlooking the Sheepscot River. Sunsets were gorgeous and we loved the big windows and the screened porch! Cottage Connection folks know their properties and are are very good at determining which particular property would be a good fit for you.

I believe the team at Cottage Connection love the homes as much as those of us who rent them. The care they give the homes and the way they welcome us when we arrive is a testament to that love. May they pass this love on to the generations that follow them.

Some places are meant to be visited and then left behind. Our cottage and little part of East Boothbay were meant to travel with us the rest of the year and the rest of our lives. We feel at home in Dash Inn. The setting is heavenly with a Bald Eagle thrown in for icing on the cake. The owners obviously love the place because you can feel that when you walk in the door. It is close to everything, yet far enough away from the world. Always go to the Maine State Theatre at Bowdoin for one show. Always visit Sadie's in Boothbay and NEVER skip going to the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens. Walk, walk, walk. Don't tell anyone how great the YMCA pool is because we do not need crowds!

Cottage Connections and the homeowners made our vacation stress free. Any suggestions for future guests? Relax! Yo're in great hands!

We had a wonderful time. The house has 8 generously sized bedrooms. Plenty to do in the area. Loved the big porch for our family gatherings, entertainment and meals. The big yard was a Hugh plus for us. The ages of our family ranged from 3-70 years of age and the house and grounds suited all ages. A large family vacation with family coming from 5 states. Shopping, kayaking, swimming, tours, meals out, visiting with family, and TOTALLY relaxing.

When a cottage rented directly from an owner fell through, I was pretty sure Cottage Connection would be able to help us. And Lucy did exactly that, finding us a perfect rental. We liked it so much, we stayed longer than we planned and returned the following year. We're loyal fans of Cottage Connection.

Lovely, relaxing getaway. With Cottage Connection, we know that the properties will be well maintained and managed. And if there is a problem with anything, there is someone to attend to it. Love relaxing by the water, and delighted that there was so much firewood available. Enjoyed a fire almost every night. Delightful cottage and location.

The person I communicated with via email was great and helpful in finding us the right place for our budget and needs. We just wish your company was aware of the status of this property's water's edge.

Great place to get away as a family and unplug.

Nice stay with efficient check in, check out and prompt service call resolution.

The sighting of the property is very good. You can see, hear and smell the ocean, but you are not so close to sandy areas that you are pestered by the bugs. The main living space is quite comfortable. Being close to the sea, sea kayaking and nice place to read with a kayak paddle to Seguin was great. Maine Maritime Museum was very good. Appreciate the short blazed hiking paths. The cottage is a great spot to eat in.

everybody is friendly & helpful
