About this cottage rental
Rustic summer cottage on Penobscot Bay on the Maine coast with 245 ft of
waterfront in the front and more water in the back. The private beach is sandy and has wonderful rocks for children to climb. The views are magnificent with lobster boats, islands, yachts and kayakers dotting the water. The water is cold but the hardy in my family love it!
There is an eat-in kitchen, and a main room with a larger dining table and a fireplace. There is a queen bedroom, a double bedroom and a bedroom with 2 twins. There is a bath with a stall shower and another with a tub/shower. There is a laundry room. A small deck is off the master bedroom and a larger deck in the front of the cottage to sit and watch the view.
There are wonderful restaurants and lobster shacks a short distance away. Take a ferry from near by Port Clyde to Monhegan Island for a day of hiking. Or hike one of the trails on Mt Battie in the Camden Hills. The acclaimed Primo farm to table restaurant is 6 miles away. Visit the Farnsworth Museum in Rockland. There is no shortage of activities for all ages!

What a perfect cozy cottage tucked away. To wake up and be so close to the water was amazing. Kids loved the beach and rock climbing. House was so cozy and well stocked. Thank you Sue! We will be back.

Super cozy cottage, very private, quiet with great views. Exactly what we wanted. Added bonus was the proximity to McLooms Lobster shack for the best lobster roll we tasted in all of Maine. We are already talking about viaiting again next year!

The cottage is lovely! We live in Maine, and we were looking for a safe, quiet waterfront spot to chill and celebrate my birthday. The cottage was very clean, with comfy bedding, a little fireplace, plenty of towels, and all the kitchen essentials. The floors were still wet when we arrived; I was hoping there would be some time between cleaning or prior occupants for the place to air out but I didn't inquire as to what COVID protocols were being met, so that's on me. Nonetheless, it was spotless and cleaned very thoroughly, with the exception of dog hairs on the rug in the master bedroom. (I found an old vacuum in the place and took care of it as best I could, but with our allergies it was kind of a bummer to have to vacuum upon arrival). I texted the owner about it, and she immediately replied via phone call, and assured me that her cleaner had addressed the room (but I still think the vacuuming in there was overlooked). Ultimately that was a minor detail. We really enjoyed falling asleep to the sound of waves lapping on the shore, and seeing the lobstermen work. There's also a simple outdoor shower (with hot water!) that was nice to use after snorkeling, swimming and paddleboarding. Some unexpected things: there was a man who walked his dog on the "private beach", who kind of creeped us out, as he was around every day for the first few days until I spoke with him and asked him to respect our privacy. The cottage is on a private road, and all beaches are technically public below the high tide mark, but he was sitting on the Adirondack chairs above the high tide line, which belong to the cottage. I also saw him staring at the cottage when he walked by, which was a little strange. The most concerning event was when this man came by well after dark with his dog (without a light) and startled us. To her credit, the owner was incredibly responsive and understanding about our concern regarding this, and did what she could to make us feel safe. We didn't see him again after that. On our last day, we were woken by a man on a riding lawnmower trimming the grass, but that was brief. Overall, I would recommend this place, and aside from the creeper - who hopefully got the message - and the lawnmowing noise intrusion, it is fairly private and serene. If you're looking for a quaint, simple Maine cottage, go for it!
