Welcome to The Happy Lobster—your classic Maine beach cottage in the heart of Short Sands, just a 2–3 minute walk to the sand. Park once, settle in, and spend your days bouncing between the beach, village shops, ice cream stops, the arcade, bowling, and all the coastal fun that makes this spot a family favorite.

Inside, the main level offers a comfortable, open living space that’s perfect for relaxing after a sunny beach day. The kitchen is well-equipped for easy vacation meals, and the dining area is ready for memorable family dinners (lobster bake, anyone?). A full bathroom is also conveniently located on this floor.

Upstairs you’ll find the sleeping quarters:
Bedroom 1 (front): Queen bed, TV, and window A/C
Bedroom 2: Full bed + twin bed
Extra sleeping space: A twin bed on the second-floor landing
Please note: the second-floor ceilings have limited headroom, so taller guests should take care.

Out back, enjoy a private patio that’s made for summer—fire up the gas grill, dine outdoors, and let the kids play in the small grassy area beside the patio.

Sleeping arrangements (6–8 guests):
Queen bedroom
Full + twin bedroom
Twin bed on landing
Queen sleeper sofa available upon request

Good to know:
Linens & towels included
No pets / no smoking
No dishwasher
Stackable washer/dryer for guest use
A/C: portable unit in the main living area + window units upstairs
Cable TV

While you’re here, be sure to pop over to Bell Farm Shops and the Nectar Café at Bell Farm—they’re owned by the same wonderful owners, and they genuinely love meeting their guests. Tell them you’re staying at The Happy Lobster with Salt & Shine for an extra warm welcome.

Traveling with a larger group? Endless Summer is located in the front unit—ask about booking one or both homes together.
