About this cottage rental
Immaculate cottage on a peaceful street in the seaside village of Castine, just a lovely 1/2 mile stroll under century-old elm trees past beautiful historic houses to the downtown area and waterfront dock, where you can watch all types of sailing vessels, including restored schooners, sail in and out of the harbor while enjoying an ice cream cone or lobster roll. Cook your own live lobsters (available at the local market) in the furnished lobster pot, or enjoy one at any of several fine restaurants in the village. Enjoy activities in town, including hiking trails through mature forests, kayaking, golf, tennis, sailing, beachcombing, or fishing - or use the cottage as a base to explore the many attractions in the Down East area such as Bar Harbor, Acadia National Park, Camden, Stonington and Isle au Haut. The cottage is fully furnished with a spacious, modern kitchen with all utensils, and also has a washer/dryer.

Two of us—my wife and I--spent nine nights at “The Captain’s Cottage” in Castine, Maine, recently. The cottage, located on a quaint, quiet in-town street, was our home base for a lovely vacation of hikes and drives around scenic Castine, Blue Hill, and Deer Isle. It was so welcoming—charming, cozy, and comfortable—and well equipped with everything we needed for our stay, plus, all that the beautiful town of Castine has to offer (a lot!) was just a picturesque stroll away. Our hostess, Barbara, who lives in the house across the lawn, provided helpful pamphlets, maps, information on the history of Castine, and advice on places to go and things to see. There was even a plate of cookies waiting for us when we arrived! She was so accommodating and thoughtful. In addition, there was a great selection of books in a revolving bookcase in the living room. We highly recommend The Captain’s Cottage; we so enjoyed our stay there.

Barbara greeted us soon after we arrived with some warm cookies. Place was clean and just the right size for the two of us. Would recommend to others and maybe stay there again.
