With stunning, panoramic river views, this is more than mere waterfront.

The location is 4+ directly on a lovely quiet tidal cove. Large deck over the water was super and southwest exposure made for lots of sun/heat in the afternoon. There were many fans. There is easy access to the water with a ramp leading down to a floating dock. This is an old cottage so bring extension cords as outlets are sparse.There is a cheap TV that only plays CDs, a big negative. There is excellent WiFi. The only bedroom is up a fairly treacherous but comfortably wide set of stairs which I decided was best to descend backwards. Mattress on the main bed (I think a queen) was covered with an ill-fitting foam topper. Bed linens were clean. Bring your own pillow(s).There is only one (tiny) bathroom downstairs with an equally tiny sink and shower. The kitchen and supplied appliances were fine. Hot water was excellent as was the drinking water from the tap.There is a useable, clean four burner electric stove/oven, a good sized refrigerator with an up-top freezer. A small microwave sat on top of the refrigerator. Access to the cottage was easy, down 17 large granite steps with a partial but sturdy handrail. Once on the deck level, the view is spectacular and quintessential Maine with at lest 5 functioning lobster boats moored in the cove, most of which were crewed on a daily basis. To the reader: I would consider another stay here depending on my health which at this writing I consider to be quite good. Oh: definitely dog friendly which was a big plus for me.

The cottage truly captures the essence of Coastal Maine. With an efficient interior and spacious front deck, it's all you'd want from a vacation cottage. The view out front is ever-changing with the tides and the activities of fishermen and recreational boaters. And if you're lucky enough to have a rainy night outside, there is nothing more cozy than sleeping upstairs with the sound of rain on the roof! Becky, who handles the property is outgoing and helpful. Plenty of activities, food, and sights nearby for visitors, but just staying on the deck and soaking up the atmosphere is a joy.

The location is ideal - water view from the cottage/deck is spectacular, and there are so many things to do and see within a short distance. The cottage is well furnished - very comfortable and cozy. Becky is very responsive should you need anything. Definitely coming back next year!
