Cottages Near Ogunquit, Maine
The quaint seaside town of Ogunquit, Maine possesses a budding tourist industry focusing on outdoor recreation and the nearby ocean. Ogunquit buffers 3.5 miles of Atlantic beach. Visitors can fish, take a nature cruise, kayak on the ocean or spend the day at the spa. There are six golf courses in the area of the small New England town. Places to stay include a variety of options ranging from hotels to cottages. Choosing a cottage usually allows a larger number of people to stay in the same unit and a measure of privacy not provided in hotels.

The Dunes on the Waterfront‎

The Dunes on the Waterfront encompasses 12 acres buffering the ocean featuring cottages with beach access. Trolleys stop at the entrance of the hotel, which allows for easy sightseeing. The resort has been family owned and operated for 70 years. It has a heated outdoor pool and miles of walking trails. The Dunes on the Waterfront has three types of cottages. The smallest, cottage suites, sleeps only two. Most of the cottage suites exist in one building, which makes them seem more like suites. The one-bedroom sleeps a maximum of four people and the similar two bedroom sleeps up to five. Most of the one-bedroom cottages are located in a larger building and are not detached; two-bedroom cottages are in single, detached buildings. Besides 19 one- and two- bedroom cottages, 17 guest rooms are available. The Cape Neddick Country Club is an 18-hole, par-71 golf course less than a mile way. A pro shop is on the premises.
