About this cottage rental
Overlooking the scenic Kennebec River, this quaint New England cottage named the "Frost House" is a lovingly restored historic home with unique charm. The back deck offers breathtaking river views, perfect for enjoying a morning coffee or a peaceful sunset night. Inside, the home is beautifully maintained and thoughtfully decorated with hand-picked antique furnishings from Maine and beyond, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The upstairs master suite includes a space to relax and an upgraded bathroom. Located in a quiet, walkable neighborhood, it’s just steps from historic downtown Bath’s shops, restaurants, and waterfront attractions. With clean, spacious bedrooms and a serene setting, this home is a perfect Maine getaway.
Background on the home:
The Frost House sits on the site of a previously working shipyard, one of several in Bath that produced US-made boats and navy vessels. The site is now part of a development project aimed at rejuvenating the unused land and bringing mixed-use community back to Bath's waterfront. The dining room of the Frost House functions as a showroom for the project but guests are welcome to eat at the table and take a look at the architectural plans.

We returned to this place for a second year and once again had a wonderful time. Check in was easy and we appreciated that there were some staple items in the fridge and cupboard. We enjoyed coffee on the deck in the morning and were able to cook a meal or two in the kitchen. We were able to do a bit of work utilizing the Wi-Fi and were able to stream some movies/ shows in the evening. We took advantage of being able to walk to the shopping district a few times during our stay. It was a wonderful home base for our daily adventures in the Bath/ Brunswick area.

Property was clean, the beds were very comfortable and we really enjoyed the quiet neighborhood. The deck overlooking the river was great, although a bit small but fine for the two of us. The walk into Town was easy with sidewalks the whole way. It Is an older home with fewer outlets and two AC units that were fine because we had cooler weather. The windows were easy to open and shut The kitchen, however, had very little counter space so difficult if you actually wanted to cook a meal. The refrigerator and microwave were in a closet in the kitchen, and there is no dishwasher, washer or dryer, which we knew about before booking.The house came with a lot of supplies, milk, half-and-half, orange juice, napkins, coffee, (regular coffee, and decaf) and all that was appreciated. They even left laundry detergent that we took with us to the local laundromat so that was nice. All in all if you’re not planning on doing a lot of cooking or baking the house is great.

Amazing location and spotless, charming home. Immediate response to any questions and clear instructions re care of the property. ACs not in bedrooms but you rarely need them. You’ll rarely leave the deck overlooking the river!

Cute house with lovely view of the Kennebunk River. Small deck overlooks river. Unfortunately, there's uncomfortable furniture and a bright motion detector light, so in the evening you can't have it dark & look at stars.
It is a natural setting to have a path to the river but there isn't one.
The kitchen is the only room with a table to eat on. The dining room is set up & being used as owners office. The kitchen has very little counter space, making it difficult to prepare & cook meals. Because of covid, we had planned to cook our meals, but the kitchen is very ill equipped. We couldn't find a baking pan for the oven- no colander, no extra large pot for lobsters. And, the fridge is quite small. We were disappointed.
Very nice full bathroom upstairs.
The twin beds are extremely comfortable, however, the double bed in the master is not. On the whole the house was not what we expected.
