About this house rental
Located right on the water of the deep water side of Basin Point Road, this cottage features spectacular sunsets across Casco Bay. On a clear day you can see Mt Washington in New Hampshire. The house has 3 porches, and a big stone fireplace. The house is located at the end of a wooded road which insures privacy and no traffic. Whales and eagles, and frequently seals have been spotted from the back porch along with the lobster boats pulling their traps daily. Inside there are 2 bedrooms with one queen size bed, and one full, and a futon bed in the living room. There is a large dining room table which seats 10 easily and a fully furnished kitchen. The bathroom has an old fashioned claw foot bathtub with a shower attachment. And yes we do have Wifi! We now also have another cabin on the property that we have fixed up to include a full bathroom, a mini fridge, and beds that can either be 2 singles or combined to make one king . Please inquire directly if you are interested.

We had a wonderful week in Harpswell at this house (2 adults plus small dog). We enjoyed the amazing view of the bay, with the lobster boats working each day. Very quiet and private location. The house is older, and rustic, but comfortable and the kitchen was well-equipped. We ate a lot of very fresh lobster. Thank you, Jeanne!

Amazing property in an unbeatable location. Working with Jean was a dream - she’s wonderful. We love going to Dolphin and Erica’s so the proximity to those didn’t hurt either! And the sunsets? Amazing! Hoping to return next next year.

Property is typical 1960's vacation home on the coast. Excellent view of bay. Quiet, private and interesting. We had a wonderful stay and enjoyed the local small town feel. Local beaches, golf course, kayaking, whale ship and wonderful people made it greatggreplaceplaceplacebe!

This home is right on Casco bay with large windows looking out. There is a great restaurant and another outdoor lobster shack less than 5 minutes away. One of our key issues was privacy which the owners stressed. Unfortunately, there is a small cabin 10 yards away that is occupied by a couple.
There is virtually no access to the water. There are no screens in several of the windows so that on a not day it can get warm. There is a rotten egg smell to the running water so that a shower is nota pleasant experience.
With a little work this can be a five star experience
