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.

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

Peaceful and so very quiet. Comfy beds, kitchen was well stocked, and the cottage was spotless!! There were lovely fresh flowers on the table. The views from the cottage beautiful, along with gorgeous sunsets. There were nice trails to walk, and all just a short drive away. In fact, the cottage was close to everything the islands have to offer. I hope to return!!

Sweet, rustic cottage right on the Maine coast with sleepy days spent lounging on the deck watching lobster boats coming and going. Walk to great seafood down the end of the road, kayak from your cottage, or just read one of the many books from their bookshelves or do a puzzle while listening to the waves lapping against the shore. Lovely! Only thing I'd wish for is a floating dock on which to sit and access the water more easily with my kayak.
