En face de la plage de Pemaquid — chalet familial saisonnier 2 chambres

A two-bedroom cottage of your own, across the road from Pemaquid Beach.

A small Maine cottage on the historic Laughton House property in Pemaquid Village, with your own kitchen, picnic spot, and parking, with Pemaquid Beach just across the road. It sleeps up to four, with a queen bedroom and a second bedroom with two twin beds, and it`s a real cottage to yourselves instead of a hotel room.

THE COTTAGE
Two bedrooms: a queen, and a smaller second bedroom with two twin beds that works well for kids, a friend or an in-law. One bathroom with a standing shower. A full kitchen, small but complete, with stove, oven, microwave, coffee maker, kettle, toaster, and basic cookware. Living area with a Smart TV, dining table for four, heater and portable fans for the seasonal weather.

GUESTS
Ocean Breeze is a true cottage, cozy by design. It sleeps up to 4 guests. The rate includes 2 guests, and each additional guest is $25 per night.

OUTSIDE
Your own private picnic area with garden chairs and a propane grill, built for slow mornings with coffee and unhurried evenings with the grill on. Two parking spots for Ocean Breeze, one behind the other, on the driveway shared with the main house.

WHAT`S WALKABLE
• Pemaquid Beach (across the road, 0.2 mi)
• Mimi`s on the Beach for fish tacos at Pemaquid Beach (0.2 mi)
• Fort William Henry Colonial Fort (0.3 mi)
• Maine Kayak for kayaks and SUPs (0.4 mi)

SHORT DRIVE
Pemaquid Point Lighthouse (3.5 mi). Monhegan Island ferry from New Harbor (1.5 mi). C.E. Reilly & Son grocery (1 mi). Damariscotta (about 20 min) for Hannaford (a larger grocery store), oyster bars, restaurants, and shops. Boothbay Harbor (about 45 min) for the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens and whale-watching.

Two of our own favorites are worth the drive. Waterstruck Wellness in Newcastle (about 25 minutes) is a cozy hideaway in the woods with a wood-fired sauna, an outdoor hot pool and a cold plunge, and there`s no better way to warm up on a cool day. The Alna Store (about 35 minutes) was named one of The New York Times` 50 favorite restaurants in America in 2024.

THE PROPERTY
Ocean Breeze is one of five buildings on the historic Laughton House property, a small family compound a stone`s throw from Pemaquid Beach. The 4-bedroom Laughton House (sleeps nine) is right next door, so if you`re traveling with another couple or extended family, both can be booked together. Three small one-bedroom cabins (Low Tide, Ebb Tide, High Tide) sit in the woods behind, also bookable separately.

ALSO ON SITE
• Level 2 EV charger (shared, with a usage fee)
• Free WiFi

GOOD TO KNOW
Ocean Breeze is uninsulated and open seasonally, mid-April to mid-October. A heater and portable fans keep things comfortable; there`s no central HVAC. No in-cottage laundry. Unfortunately we can`t have pets on site, but ADA service animals are welcome with advance notice, so please reach out before booking.

PARKING
- Park only in the 2 Ocean Breeze spots on the right side of the main driveway.

GRILL AND FIRE PIT
- Use the grill only where it sits. Clean it with the wire brush while it`s still hot and turn off the gas at the tank after each use. A $50 fee applies if it`s left dirty.
- The shared fire pit by the cabins is open to all guests, and it`s the only place for an outdoor fire. Keep it small, never leave it unattended, and drown it with water before you leave it or go to bed. We don`t supply firewood, but C.E. Reilly & Son sells it.

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

- 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.
