About this property

Very cozy and private. Spiral staircase to bedroom. Sliding glass doors open to wrap-around deck and lawn that slopes to ocean. 300+ feet deep water frontage separated from lawn by broad rock ledge. Enjoy your morning coffee watching lobster and sail boats in the Mussel Ridge Channel. Unbelievable and peaceful views out to ocean and north to the Camden Hills. Windjammer cruises, golf, tennis, hiking, museums, access to nearby islands. Unparalleled views everywhere.

No smoking inside, permitted on deck only. Pets may be permitted. If approved (your dog needs to be friendly as our dog has the run of the acreage and is always looking for a playmate) a $50.00 fee is charged per pet.

I have never charged a cleaning fee and expect the cottage to be left clean and tidy.

Peace, Salt Air, Everything you could need

I traveled solo and it was the perfect respite. Check in is simple, Pilot welcomes you with a wagging tail and gives the grand tour. Having left my own furry friend at home, I was happy for his company. Furnishings are more updated than the photos show. I can't imagine anyone needing anything more than what this cottage provides. Mind your head when you climb the spiral staircase. I was grateful for the bluetooth speaker in the living room. This was a perfect solo stay, I'd recommend for couples too. You want for nothing here.

Beautiful Winter Getaway

Beautiful views, peaceful, relaxing! Excellent hosts, great communication. My husband and I enjoyed this cottage for 3 nights in February. The weather was outstanding, great neighborhood for walks. We enjoyed sitting on the granite rocks looking out at the ocean. Close to Rockland for dinner at the Samoset one night, otherwise we didn't want to leave the cottage! We enjoyed listening to Gordon's sea adventures and his family history of island living/working. This is Maine at it's best. If you don't have snow and ice to enjoy Maine's outdoor sports, come and enjoy an island treasure. Thank you to our hosts for sharing your home!

Breathtaking

We imagined a rocky Maine sea coast village environment. We got everything we hoped for. Since it was a dark and stormy night when we arrived it was a little intimidating. The next few days were great. We communicated with owner regularly, sometimes in person. This allowed us to understand the history of the property. Great food at nearby restaurants and a short drive to historic a scenic villages. All in all a great experience

All the raves are right

All the great photos and descriptions of this cottage are, well, accurate! Besides being in a wonderful spot, the amenities are even better than you think. The high quality gas stove is terrific and cooks up lobsters in no time. The fridge is large, spotless and the freezer is very generousously sized. Many many kitchen implements are available. The queen bed is comfortable though it fits tightly into the loft alcove. (Getting in and out may be been difficult if I were 10 years older). Many thoughtful touches from the thoughtful hosts too numerous to mention. I can't wait to return.
