Absolutely loved our stay. What a special place! The beautiful cove view was so nice we decided to stay in for dinner for two nights instead of heading out. Cabin is a smaller but a good size for two people and our 25 lb dog. Rustic and cozy and bright. We enjoyed adventuring in Harpswell, Baileys Island and Bath. Picturesque views just about everywhere! Lots of fun shops, places to eat and hiking/ocean views without being crowded (we went in September.) Highly recommend!

What a nice getaway we had. The cabin is secluded with pretty views. There’s quite a bit of wildlife to watch (we saw a deer, a coyote, blue herons and ospreys). Across the way we watched the lobster coop work in full swing loading lobster pots onto boats and then later unloading lobsters. My husband fished right off the property.

The property is located in a unique, beautiful location. The cottage was clean and tidy but very small. The bed is a full size, not queen. The futon is the only seating choice and quite uncomfortable.
