Charming Maine cottage overlooking the working waterfront.

Welcome to Drake!

Looking for a romantic couple's getaway? This charming, newly remodeled one-bedroom cottage is located in the heart of Cundy's Harbor. Enjoy your morning coffee on the deck, that sits right over the water, while watching the lobstermen head out for their day.

Upon entering this adorable, quaint cottage you will first notice it's open concept living/kitchen area. The kitchen appliances are all smaller, including the fridge, but you can still utilize them for all your cooking needs. The bathroom is located on the first level and has a stand up shower. The sliding glass doors lead you right to the deck that sits out over the water. Upstairs you will find a large sized bedroom with a king size bed and beautiful ocean views.

Hidden Gem in Small Working Harbor

We loved our stay in this little cottage built out over Cundy's Harbor. Perfect size for a couple, it had everything we needed for a quiet week of relaxation, with the added bonus of a private deck facing west over the harbor. It's true that it is in a working harbor with a handful of lobster boats rumbling to life around 4:30 am, but it didn't really bother us. The only issue for us was the uncomfortable bed, which does need improvement, but we are already planning to return next year,

Fabulous

Our week at Drake cottage was beautiful, relaxing and much too short! The space and amenities are just right for two and exactly as advertised – the cottage and the location are just about as perfect as it gets. Time spent on the deck was a joy and the spaces inside, upstairs and down, managed to be both cozy and airy at the same time. The cottage was impeccably clean and outfitted, and Your Island Connection was consistently and immediately available if needed. We brought our sea kayaks with us and there was ample room to park the trailer and launching access was a very short carry down the end of the road. It was a wonderful week, and we are already planning and so looking forward to our next visit!

Beautiful location, wonderful week

Drake Cottage was magical from start to finish. It was absolutely spotless when we arrived and everything in the rental is well thought out, comfortable and good quality. We loved our evenings on the deck, watching the sun going down over the harbor, watching the wildlife (have never seen so many herons) and particularly enjoyed watching the comings and goings of the lobster boats at the wharf. Wifi was excellent. Weather great - even the one rainy day - and I ate too many lobster rolls... ;D Truly a Maine experience and we cannot wait to come back. Thank you!

Simply perfect

It was amazing! The cottage sat set to a working lobster wharf. We met and talked with the owner of the wharf. It was a perfect time for us.

Cute

Quintessential Maine experience! Perfect for 2. Walk to the local store and docks. Close to hiking trails and close enough to Brunswick for great dinning!

Perfect, adorable cottage - gorgeous views!

Such a great cottage with a gorgeous view. Perfect for a couples retreat. We absolutely loved the view of the cove with the working lobsters boat. The sunsets were unbelievable and we made it a point to be back at the cottage so we never missed one. Very private, we stayed in October and the lobster boats were not noisy at all. Perfect location for us to see the sights in Bath, Brunswick, Bailey's Island, Freeport, Five Islands, Reid State Park. Boothbay Harbor was a short 50 min picturesque drive.

Restful Getaway

Drake Cottage was everything we expected and hoped for. The location makes for peace and quiet and the view of the harbor is lovely. The bedroom with it's king-sized bed and windows looking out to the water is pretty much perfect. It was truly a time of refreshment!
