About this cottage rental

Situated in Brooklin, this attractive cottage for $190 per night is a fantastic option for your next trip. Duck Cove Cottage - If relaxation, peace and quiet are part of the agenda, Duck Cove Cottage may help achieve that goal. This 19 year old, 1 bedroom carriage house can be ideal for the couple that wants a base to explore Down East, tour Acadia(1 hour away), attend the Wooden Boat School(5-7 min), or just sit in the chairs by tranquil, tidal Herrick Bay for your time here. The bird life on the bay, an occasional eagle soaring by or the red squirrels dashing through the trees are your closest neighbors. Besides a spacious living area it has a fully equipped kitchen, king bed in the bedroom, sleeper sofa in the living area, walk in closet, 1 bath, 2 dressing areas, and washer- dryer utility area in the 850 sq feet. The deck overlooks the bay and offers a very tranquil atmosphere situated on 4 peaceful acres. Our residence is adjacent to the cottage but is not connected to the carriage house. The house is not on the rental market, and if occupied, we would be there. Charcoal grill and lobster cooking pots are in the garage on the ground level. We anticipate your slogan will be like ours after your vacation here-- 'Time spent in Maine is not wasted'. WBS and sailors. GPS 44°16' 0.3324°N 68° 32' 25.8216° W

This gorgeous wood planked cottage held all the amenities of home with the most accommodating hostess and host. The area is loaded with local bay hiking trails, out-the-cardoor views of local lobster boats, many small shops and dining choices and beautiful views of the bay and wooded acreage. Keep the phone/camera close in hand for unique scenery, wildlife and New England style photo ops. We loved this vacation and will travel from Indiana to do it again.

A perfect place! We loved our week in Maine while staying in this well-appointed, welcoming cottage. Our hosts were phenomenal and we could not have asked for more. If you are looking for a beautiful place to call home for a week, stay at Duck Cove Cottage. You will not be disappointed!

What an amazing place to call home for a week or two! Gorgeous view, beautiful cabin, and the most wonderful hosts ever! This "cabin" is newer construction and is gorgeous inside and out. All the amenities you would ever want, including a kitchen with all sorts of utensils, small appliances, and good coffee pots - both the Keurig style and the drip type. Our hosts, Gary and Debi shared some of their favorite local places with us, including a gift shop that also sold lobstas for the best price, anywhere. Gary showed us how to setup and use the powerful propane powered lobsta pot, and with his instructions, we cooked several batches of perfectly steamed lobstas. If you go to Deck Cove Cabin, be warned - you will NOT want to leave.

We had a lovely time staying at the Duck Cove Cottage for two weeks. The hosts were very kind, delivered us newspapers, and were readily available for recommendations and assistance if needed. The cottage is located above the primary home's garage but we never noticed cars coming & going. The view from the deck was beautiful. There were two chairs out by the waterfront for lounging. It was foggy the whole time we were there but the gas fireplace was a cozy way to enjoy the gray days. Would recommend!

What a terrific find! This carriage-house rental on the water in Brooklin, Maine absolutely suited us to a T when we rented it for the week before Memorial Day. The weather was terrific, the ambiance of the lodging is warm and friendly, the kitchen is REALLY well equipped for stay-in cooking. The location in relation to other points in Maine we wanted to explore was perfect. As a bonus, Gary & Debi are perfect hosts, warm and friendly, and available as needed for tips and suggestions. We had a wonderful time!

What a perfect little hideaway! We absolutely enjoyed our stay at Duck Cove Cottage! Gary and Debi were so helpful and gave such great guidance and tips about the area! They checked in with us to make sure that we have everything we needed and encouraged us to ask questions if we had any. We have never received this kind of service staying anywhere else! I put a lot of time into reading reviews and every review on here is so true! We have never been to Maine before and we are so happy that we made the trip out! The views are stunning and the cottage was stocked with absolutely everything that you could ever need. It’s so nice to be able to just show up and enjoy the vacation without worrying about what you don’t have! Cottage was clean and the bed was so comfy! It is an hour drive to Acadia which was a nice and easy drive. The only regret that we have is that we were unable to stay longer! My husband and I are already looking forward to go back next year! Do NOT look anywhere else if you are looking for a peaceful retreat!!! ❤️

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at Duck Cove. It was a home away from home. Communication with property manager was a breeze. He was helpful and ensured we had everything we needed. Location is away from the city, but a short drive up to town. We enjoyed the quiet sounds of nature and listening to the water. The wildlife was an added bonus. The property is everything that is listed in the posting. Came stocked with all the equipment to boil our own lobster! Definitely recommend this cottage for any couple looking to get away and disconnect. We hope to return soon!
