About this cottage rental

Nestled in Harrington, this lovely cottage for $150 per night is a great choice for your next trip. The perfect getaway on 20 acres of privacy, overlooking Flat Bay in Harrington, Maine. Seventy-five feet from the shore, this is a special place for peace and quiet, built with dimensional lumber, boarded & shingled in cedar. It is free of many allergy-causing elements. All the conveniences you would expect in a year-round home, in a setting all by itself. A copy of a Civil War general's home, you enter from the front porch into a large living room, a dining room with view is in the lower level of the tower. There is a fully equipped galley kitchen, one bedroom with double bed, ample closets, and a full bath. Up the winding stairs is an artist's studio and an upper level of the tower with a balcony where a desk at the windows invites the writer. There are ocean views from every room, hot-air heat, internet available, and the house is furnished & applianced including a phone. Unlike at many rentals, your neighbor's construction project won't become a part of your vacation. Privacy is complete.

Lovely place! Rod and Lucile were absolutely delightful and very responsive! Checked on us when Hurricane Lee was making an appearance! 3 things not in the listing: No washer/laundry While the view of the bay is beautiful you cannot really access the water … the tides do not permit. They no longer have a Wi-Fi hotspot- which didn’t really impact us but fyi!

A great place to unwind. Watch the tide go in and out, along with the deer, turkeys and birds in the yard! Clean, everything you need available. Confortable bed. Truly feels like a piece of heaven.

Maine became a favorite spot for us. The cottage was so charming despite the fact we had no internet or wi-fi there. A trip to the Paisly Loon in Cherryfield gave us delicious blueberry muffins and wi-fi. The laundromat in Milbridge where we had to do laundry also had wi-fi. The owners were very kind and helpful in locating places of interest. If you are a golfer the people at Barren View golf were great and accepting as were the folks at the Baptist church of Cherryfield. We really hated to leave!

My wife and I enjoyed our stay at the Harrington property. The views were picturesque daily. Just sitting watching the tide go in and out was just what we were looking for. Rod and Lucille were the nicest couple, and the perfect hosts. The property was very comfortable and clean. We used the location as a home base. After sightseeing all day it was nice to come back and light a fire, and truely relax. Highly recommended.

Very private, with magnificent views made our stay peaceful and relaxing. Outside fire ring would be a nice addition. Our only disappointment was the lack of Wi-Fi. The owners, Lucile and Rob, could not have been more congenial and helpful.

Rod and Lucile have shared a lovely piece of tranquil space. My partner and I were appreciative of the personal greeting during check-in and how wonderfully accommodating they were to our unexpected early arrival. The cottage and property are even more lovely in person, than shown from the photos. The bed was wonderfully comfortable (so grateful!), property clean throughout, and kitchen stocked with all needs thoughtfully anticipated. The cool temps at night allowed for us to have a fire in the fireplace each night, and we were grateful for the stocked firewood. For future visitors, I would highlight the internet limitations which are explained under the amenities. A hotspot was available for the expressed purpose to check email or limited usage, noting that streaming is not an option. Bring your own WiFi if this is important to you. Local highlights for food include Paisley Loon for breakfast, lunch and good coffee; Knottie Lobster for lobster rolls; Vasquez for Mexican food (generous portions!), and if you're traveling north to Machias, we highly recommend Bad Little Brewery. Don't forget to visit Frank E. Woodworth Preserve for a beautiful, easy hike. Thanks again, to Rod and Lucile for such a wonderful experience.
