About this house rental
Historic Harbormaster’s House on the Great Harbor
Step into coastal Maine history at the beautifully restored Harbormaster’s House, originally built in 1888 and thoughtfully renovated in 1989. Located on picturesque Clark Point Road, this year-round residence offers sweeping views of the Great Harbor and a front-row seat to the ever-changing marine activity — from lobster boats to sailboats gliding by.
Inside, the home combines modern comfort with classic charm:
3 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms
Spacious open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area
Two laundry rooms for added convenience
Second-floor office/sitting room with harbor views
Harborside decks perfect for morning coffee or sunset cocktails
Large basement with ping-pong table for indoor fun
The main floor primary suite features an ADA-compliant bathroom and a private screened porch — ideal for relaxing with a book or enjoying cool sea breezes.
A one-car attached garage offers direct entry to the home. Outside, meander through lush perennial gardens down a quiet path to the shore, where a private beach and dock invite you to launch kayaks, cast a line, or simply watch the tide roll in.
New in 2024: A spacious deck and cozy boathouse at the water’s edge — your perfect, sheltered hangout with comfortable seating and stunning views. End your evening stargazing from the Adirondack chairs on the dock — the night sky here is unforgettable.
Just five houses from the Southwest Harbor Town Dock, and a short 10-minute walk to Beal’s Lobster Pound and downtown Southwest Harbor, with its charming shops, restaurants, historic inns, and museum — this home is perfectly positioned for your Acadia National Park adventures.

The historic house was perfect for us and had plenty of room. The beds were comfortable. We enjoyed the beautiful views from the large windows in the living area and the decks. The kitchen was well stocked and there were lots of assorted spices, flour, oil etc. available for our use. We especially like the location in Southwest Harbor. We could easily walk to downtown area and restaurants. Beal's Lobster Pound was delicious. Acadia NP surrounded Southwest Harbor and all areas were within a 30 minute drive. The host was available to answer questions before and during our trip. The pictures of the house are accurate.

We had a fall vacation with family and everyone loved the house and it's history! From playing ping pong in the basement to having cocktails on the dock after hiking in Acadia, to walking to Beal's for lobster dinner, we enjoyed everything!

House was clean but did have 2 garbage cans that were overflowing in garage and laundry in dryers. View was beautiful and house spacious. Really enjoyed our visit
