About this house rental

Capture the beautiful pink, orange, and purple hues of a Harpswell sunset from this well-appointed 3BR, 2BA ocean view home with a ROW to the sandy/pebbly shores of Middle Bay.

Inside, the afternoon light floods the windows of this beautifully updated home. Guests will enjoy cooking and entertaining in the spacious kitchen, complete with granite countertops, a center island, gas stove, double ovens, and a wet bar, then gathering around the large dining room table for a lobster feast. Relax in the living room accented by the warmth and comfort of the propane fireplace on chilly evenings or retreat to the ocean view deck to take in the sights and sounds of the shore. Off the dining room, you'll find a bedroom with a king bed and TV and on the other side of the home is the primary bedroom with a king bed, TV, and ocean views, opening to a deck. The third bedroom offers one twin bed and one full bed. There are two full bathrooms, both beautifully renovated in 2025, offering tile showers and new vanities. Stackable laundry in closet to the right of the full bath.

Outside, there is a spacious deck, yard, and access to the oceanfront via a ROW, just steps away, perfect for swimming, launching a kayak, or combing the beach for treasures.

Located in a small oceanside neighborhood, you'll enjoy being "away from it all," while still being just a short drive from local restaurants and shops including Uncle Pete's Community Market, Dolphin Marina & Restaurant and Erica's Seafood, as well as the many restaurants and shops of Maine Street, Brunswick.

Come experience "the way life should be" at Sand Dollar Cottage!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Absolutely great!The layout is perfect and the space is well stocked with throws, comfortable beds and furniture, the kitchen has everything, extremely clean, easy to keep clean (were there for 2 weeks), love the washer dryer right there and handy, and the setting is quintessential quiet, friendly, and beautiful. The house was probably updated a short time ago and is air tight with the windows closed so I can imagine that in colder weather, it would be comfortable. Everything is updated and easy to use inside. We only had one cooler day and we were very cozy inside without adding heat. The water access was easy and watching the tide was a favorite activity. The little coves going to the right or left on the beach are all worth exploring. Harpswell has a ton of public walking trails with parking in most places. It’s such a treasure of a place, with glorious beauty and diversity of rock formations, terrain, and seashore views.

Great property in a beautiful area. Close to some great places to visit and also a great house to enjoy. Was fun swimming down across the street and walking the beach for sunset (tide dependent). Beds were very comfortable and kitchen had all the Maine necessities! Hope to visit again!

The location was beautiful. The outside could have been cleaner as well as the dust dog hair and cobwebs . The couch needs to be professionally cleaned. Cabinets are full of stuff left from previous guests very disorganized.
