Cottage holiday rentals in Rye

Jessica was very communicative and her place was in a great location to access the area’s attractions. A comfortable home away from home. We enjoyed the pool and wish we had stayed longer. Thank you!

A nice private cottage in a quiet community that was super handy for us to stay until we secured our house in New England. Everything is in place for comfortable living. We lived there for a month long and the hosts were always responsible.

I had a nice stay at Alexa's. It's beautiful, quiet and ideal to get some rest while being surronded with nature. The best!

I truly can’t say enough positives about Stephanie’s place! First, the cottage looks even better in person. Second, the little details make all the difference from the quick response time, welcome card and lobster bag, a very informative welcome binder, and a fully stocked home which when added together, felt like OUR home! Some who is walker bound, found the property to have comfort height counters and toilet in the bathroom, two anti slip step stools to get into the bed if you’re short like myself, and remotes for everything (including instructions to use everything in the binder). If you think you need it, Stephanie supplied it from board games, lobster pot, cocktail kit, to a crockpot and a Bose speaker in the kitchen. There was a rainy day so afternoon vacay naps listening to music was a vacation-like you can get! Only suggestion would be there are closets in the bedroom but they have shelves. There are no places for hanged clothing. Bring some hangers, use hooks on bathroom door!

Great clean air bnb. Accurately as described.. looks good in photos but even better in-person. Bed was comfortable. Would rent their properties again.

Everything was so perfect !! thank you for hosting us !!

The house was clean and well maintained. The view was gorgeous, too bad Mother Nature didn’t cooperate. It was cold and rainy. Used the fire pit nightly and it was nice. Linens were clean, towels were soft and fluffy and smelled freshly laundered. Kitchen was spotless and well stocked with pot/pans and dishes. Having a dishwasher was nice too. Two grocery stores (Hannaford and Market Basket) were close by and plenty of restaurants too. We came with the intention of doing nothing and just changing scenery for the weekend. This place was perfect.

Great cottage with a perfect location. Not too close to the ocean but close enough. Grocery stores and other shops within a mile radius. 10-20 miles gets you to many other small Maine locations.

Mel’s place was great! It was amazing to get ready for my wedding and had plenty of room for bridal party and hair/makeup stylists. Mel was great at communicating and had very timely responses

We had a fantastic time at this cute and cozy cottage! It’s within 15 minutes of basically anything in the Portland area and the cottage itself is so charming and inviting. We only wish we had planned to stay here longer!

They were accommodating, flexible, and very gracious. They had an entire binder of information with details about where to find fans, towels, flashlights, how to work the shower, heat, grill, and about anything else you can think of. It also had emergency services, restaurants, places to have a good time, and good details about checkout expectations. Overall we were extremely happy with the property and our stay, and were honored by the personalization they did for us specifically as it was our Honeymoon and they wrote us a custom note by hand for when we arrived. Highly Recommended - Will Rent Again!

We stayed at this property for 6 weeks with our dog and loved it. The neighborhood is gorgeous, walkable, and has the perfect beach for pup play. Owners are on-site, friendly, and quick to respond. The carriage house was very clean and as beautiful as pictured. We would certainly stay here again.

Stayed here for two nights to enjoy the area. Susan was very communicative, proactive, and was flexible with check in. Place matched the photos, great location, lots to do. Will come again to this Airbnb.

A Perfect Waterfront Escape – 5 Stars My wife and I had an unforgettable stay at RK North Waterfront Cottage. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed by breathtaking views, fresh coastal air, and a sense of peaceful seclusion that made this trip truly special. The cottage itself was spotless, beautifully maintained, and tastefully decorated with cozy touches that made it feel like a true home away from home. We especially loved the spacious deck overlooking the water — perfect for morning coffee or evening wine while watching the sunset. The hosts were thoughtful and responsive, ensuring we had everything we needed without ever being intrusive. Whether it was relaxing by the fire pit, walking along the shore, or just enjoying the tranquility of the surroundings, every moment felt effortless and restorative. If you’re looking for a quiet getaway with charm, comfort, and stunning waterfront views, this is the place. We’re already planning our next visit. — Eric & Juliet DiNoto

Extremely clean lake house with stunning views and all the comforts of home. Many sweet touches throughout the three bedroom house and fully appointed kitchen. Wishing we had more time to stay, relax, and enjoy the water, but would highly recommend this Air B&B! PS. I appreciated the railings along the steps down to the house, having had a recent knee replacement.

Another great stay at this place! It’s been consistently a great spot for us. Perfect for a walk to beach or into town. We love it and will definitely be back.

Larry's place was beautiful. There was a great view of the inlet from both downstairs and upstairs. It's within walking distance to downtown Portsmouth, which is great because parking can be tricky in town. But we had a long day driving so we just enjoyed sitting out on the balcony and relaxing. Having a bedroom with living room upstairs AND downstairs was perfect as it afforded my daughter and I each our own space. The only problem was we didn't have more than one night to stay!

Rachel was so helpful and accommodating. Her place was so cozy and clean, and extremely well set up so that everything was there to help our family feel at home. Thanks for a great stay!

We had a great time at Flip Flop and would recommend. It is so close to the beach and the welcome book had great restaurant recommendations. The Beach Plums clam chowder was especially good. The drive to Portsmouth or Rye is just 12 minutes or so. So much to do in the city for first timers! We were doing family research in the area and it was a lovely way to spend time together. Our great grandfather was a shoaler so we were surprised to look out on a clear day and see the Isles of Shoals. Thank you Carrie for your responsiveness!

This Airbnb is an absolute hidden gem! It is a peaceful spot surrounded by nature in an convenient location. Inside, it's cozy and feels just like home. It’s very clean, the bed is extremely comfortable, and it’s very quiet. The spacious outdoor area is a dream, offering so many spots to sit with loved ones right by the water, from the fire pit to the dock and deck. The photos don't even begin to capture its beauty. We made lifelong memories in the backyard. The surrounding towns are packed with natural beauty and history, there is so much to do and so many lobster rolls to be eaten (I probably gained a few pounds exploring all the delicious food in Portsmouth). Andrew was an incredibly responsive and helpful host, full of good recs and making the whole experience seamless. The check out process was especially easy compared to some of my recent Airbnb’s, it was really nice being able to check out of an without having to do a laundry list of chores first 😅

Great stay! Margaret is a kind and responsive host.

We really enjoyed our stay. The location was perfect. We were in Hampton to attend the Seafood Festival and had wanted to get a place closer to all the action. But this turned out to be better. We liked staying up North where it's quieter and less crowded. And we had two cars so having a driveway was a big plus. It was only 2 miles to the festival (we even walked there along the beach) and after a fun busy day it was nice to go back to the quieter neighborhood. The house was as expected. It is small but that was fine for our purposes. It is decorated nicely and it was clean and comfortable. There were lots of plush bath towels. The beach chairs in the shed and the cozy throws on the porch were useful when we watched the fireworks at the beach at night. The instructions for the house were clear and complete. Brenden was very responsive and helpful . We would definitely stay there again.

Colby’s place was clean and exactly as described. Its convenient location to the beach, off street parking and comfortable amenities makes it a great location for a couples getaway or small family vacation.

My friend and I stayed here for a girls weekend, and the place was so cute, spotless, and the hosts were so friendly and responsive. The location was also great and centrally located. We had a blast and would for sure stay here again!
