sleep
- Each room is a 1- to 3-bedroom standalone cottage with outdoor space. Many have water views and screened-in porches.
- Many cottages are built for families with twin beds or bunk beds. However, there are no bathtubs.
- Two cottages (3-bedroom) have a full kitchen; the rest have a kitchenette with a microwave and mini fridge.
- A few cottages accommodate dogs.
- Fully renovated and reopened in 2024. They did a great job maintaining historic charm while adding modern amenities.
- This hotel is seasonal (open Memorial Day weekend through end of October).
play
- This is a beautiful, simple property and a great place to let your kids run around while you enjoy the setting.
- The heated outdoor pool offers stunning ocean views and floating tubes for lounging. There’s a large shallow section (9" deep) with some steps down to a deeper section (5'). There's a fence around the pool, which parents will appreciate.
- They have bikes to explore the town, but only adult-size (and you’ll be biking along the road).
- At low tide, you can walk across the tidal river to a quiet (almost private-feeling) section of Ogunquit Beach. At high tide, you take their cabana boat shuttle or use the resort-provided kayaks, paddleboards, or rowboats.
- They provide beach chairs, umbrellas, towels, and coolers — but you'll have to carry them to the beach yourself.
- Young kids will love splashing in the river and looking for wildlife.
- If you want to explore off-property, they can shuttle you around town.
eat
- There is no full-service restaurant on site, but they do deliver a light breakfast to your cottage by 8:30am each morning (delicious pastries, coffee), and rooms are stocked with free snacks and drinks.
- There’s a small café in the lobby open 8am–3pm with coffee drinks, light bites, and some local snacks.
- There are a ton of great restaurants within walking, biking, or golf cart distance — don’t miss the Lobster Pound next door (free dessert if you show your room key!) and Big Daddy’s ice cream.
- Stop by the lobby in the afternoon for a treat for you (champagne) and your kids (cookies).
- Grab a s’mores kit from the lodge for the nightly waterfront bonfire.
