The Dunes On The Waterfront - A seaside resort with heated pool, private cottages, and direct river access in Ogunquit

Situated on 12 acres of seaside greenery, The Dunes On The Waterfront features 21 summer cottages overlooking the Ogunquit Tidal River. This 3-star Ogunquit hotel offers accommodation options from guest rooms to two-bedroom cottages, each equipped with modern amenities including free WiFi and flat-screen TVs. The cottages include full kitchens, screened porches with water views, and wood-burning fireplaces. A heated outdoor pool with nightly insulated cover serves as a central recreational feature. The property provides direct access to a quieter section of Ogunquit Beach, while the private dock offers kayaks, paddleboards, and rowboats for guest use. Located 0.5 miles from Maine Street, The Dunes positions guests within 1 mile of Marginal Way and Ogunquit Playhouse. A trolley stop at the entrance connects to local attractions and walking trails.

Pros

Private dock with complimentary water sports equipment and beach access

On-site cafe offering fresh juices, smoothies, and cheese boards

Lawn games and fire pit area for evening gatherings

Complimentary beach chairs and cruiser bikes for guest use

Cons

25 miles distance from Pease International Tradeport

Beach access requires crossing the tidal river at high tide

“The charm of individual cottages overlooking the Ogunquit River creates a relaxing, private setting, enhanced by thoughtful amenities like complimentary bikes and watercraft. Its access to both a quieter beach area and Ogunquit's lively downtown offers an appealing balance. I particularly appreciate the blend of modern comfort and classic Maine coastal character here.”
