About this cottage rental

Situated in South Thomaston, this charming cottage for $225 per night is a fantastic option for your next vacation. Our adorable classic Maine cottage sleeps three. A new adjacent bungalow accommodates an additional two people for an extra charge of $350.00 a week (a great place for the kids to sleep and hang out!). The cottage has an updated kitchen and bathroom. There is a wooden table (that can fold out) in the living room for indoor eating. We have a fully outfitted heated bathroom (shower, no tub) with new fixtures. Upstairs, there is a loft-style full bedroom with a spectacular view of the ocean. There is a small single bedroom downstairs. The living room has comfy furniture and a lovely gas fireplace for those rare chilly summer mornings. There is WiFi but no TV. Linens and towels are provided. The screened-in porch, which overlooks the Gulf of Maine, features a family-sized table for dining out on summer evenings. Attached is a small deck with a charcoal grill for you to enjoy. Two kayaks (one double and one single) are also available. During the day, luxuriate on the warm rocks a few steps away or take the short path down to Pleasant Beach for swimming, snorkeling, crab-hunting, fishing, and sun-worshipping. We have a fire pit right by the water where you can make s'mores and look at the stars. The cottage boasts a stunning view of the bay. Sip your morning coffee on the porch and watch as lobstermen ply their trade while children climb the rocks along this secluded coastline. No crowds here! Nearby seafood shacks and restaurants in the area are well known, or if you're nice to the local lobsterman, you might have fresh lobster brought directly to your front door. Located 12 minutes from Rockland, 10 minutes from Owls Head, 35 minutes from Camden Hills State Park, and near many other Midcoast attractions. We also welcome a well-behaved dog for a small fee, but this is a cat-free, no-smoking property. I am happy to answer any questions about our wonderful Maine cottage. ----- There is also a fun bunkhouse behind the cottage that has 3 beds and a little front porch. It is a great place for the kids to hang out, to use as an artist studio, or to simply have some quiet time! There is NO bathroom, but there is a mini-fridge and coffee maker and it is only ten steps away from the main house. It is available for rent for an extra $350.00 weekly.

We stay in Maine each summer and this cottage right on the water with access to Pleasant Beach did not disappoint. We needed a place that would allow pets. This cottage was perfect for us and our 7 month old lab. We had a great week kayaking, exploring all mid-coast Maine has to offer. The cottage is rustic and everything you'd expect and want when getting away to enjoy the coast of Maine. The only thing missing was another weeks stay. Hope to stay again in the future.

Our family enjoyed our stay. Our kids (4 and 8) loved exploring the beach at low tide and playing games on the porch at night. The location offered lots to do with hiking, beach and Rockland all nearby.

We enjoyed our stay on Maine's Mid-coast. The view from the cottage can't be beat. We enjoyed sitting out on the bench by the shore, as well as in the large screened in porch. While inland it was hot, it was quite comfortable at the shore. Easy access to good seafood, shopping and other services.

Loved the cottage and surroundings, everything was as described. Clean and homey, with a cool sense of history to everything. The views are even nicer than they look in the pics, and Laura was super communicative and easy to reach. Definitely want to return some day.

The positives far outweigh the negatives but there are 2 big negatives: the unreliable water supply and the bed mattresses (which could be easily fixed.) The cottage has character and is in a BEAUTIFUL setting right on the water plus a good location relative to towns & things to do. Having to be SO careful about the water is a downer. The house has a comfortable sofa and chair but reading lights are too dim. The gas stove is a pleasure. Kayaks, firepit, intertube, etc are perfect for younger people but the walkway from car to house should be improved for older people, especially dangerous when wet. Also a railing on the inside steps would be helpful. The flowers and nightlights were a plus and the rocking chairs on screened porch wonderful. If the mattresses were replaced and some upgrade in water system this would be 5 stars plus, plus, plus. The views are magnificent, especially sunrise and moonrise over the ocean! It might be helpful to have a neighbor/local person to call if questions arise. We had a relaxing, very pleasant time here but the very tiny shower and unreliable water supply are concerns. The owner was very responsive to our questions.. It is a family house & we can see why it is so loved. Thanks for a memorable week.

We had such a wonderful week at The Little Yellow Cottage! The view was amazing, and the cabin had everything we needed to enjoy a week in Maine. We spent a lot of time on the screened in porch and on the rocks by the water. We enjoyed the flowers and the plants all around the cottage, and we even found some blueberries and a firefly! We took the kayak out one day and paddled around the island a bit. We ate at McLoon's 2 times and found their crab rolls to be fantastic!! We also bought fish at Jess's Market a few times and even had them steam lobsters for us. Both places were quite close and easy to find. The cabin is located nearby so many fun things things to see and do. We drove down to Boothbay one day and did the Cabbage Island Clam Bake. We would highly recommend this tour to others. We also drove up to Rockport and Camden and hiked in the Camden Hills. This cabin has a nice central location that is close to so many fun things to see and do!
