About this property

Quiet & cozy ocean-side hideaway. Pet friendly!

Welcome to Spruce Cove, our intimate, rustic, end-of-the-road-cottage settled at the top of Muscongus Bay where you share the solitude with a resident blue heron, bald eagles, and the occasional seal. With access to tidal swimming right in your front yard, this is a perfect place to unwind and relax. Read in the hammock, bike, and explore the mid-coast - just 25 minutes to Rockland and Camden. Enjoy a cozy fire indoor or out or read on the porch overlooking the cove. There are numerous hiking trails right on property as well. We live within an hour and are happy to accommodate any needs or questions you may have. We provide a filtered water for drinking water during your stay.

What does rustic mean, some ask? Well, it is a cottage and only half-insulated. The main part can get warm during the day (we provide fans). We have had signs of mice in the past, although none recently. The cottage sits at the bottom of a ledged outcropping and water access can be difficult for people with mobility issues. The drive in is on a private cottage association road with a steep grade towards the end - be prepared to take it slow!

Great stay in Maine.

Our family of 4 had a wonderful stay in this Oceanside cabin. The available paddle boards and kayak really made the trip! It is a perfect setting for a quiet Maine vacation.

Hidden Gem

This cottage was such a great place. The views were amazing. The place was clean and well taken taken care off. My husband, myself and our pup had a relaxing time while we were there.

Wonderful and Special

We spent a week at this gorgeous and sweet little home at the edge of a Maine inlet. Everything we needed or wanted was there including paddle boards and kayaks, a little playground, and comfortable sweet indoor living spaces. Definitely will try to come again!

Just perfect.

This beautiful cabin was cozy and modern, spotlessly clean, and thoughtfully well-equipped. Everything we needed was provided. Multiple places inside and outside for gathering and relaxing; a cute kitchen with all the necessities; and the super-efficient wood stove was easy to use. It was a great base for exploring nearby, but also comfortable for just hanging out and enjoying the quiet. Thank you for sharing this amazing place.

A little gem on the coast

This property is amazing! Quiet, serene, picturesque- just absolutely beautiful! The perfect place to be if you want to unplug from the business of life and connect with nature and Maine’s beauty. For us, it worked! I would say that if you have more then 3 adults or older children, the space is really only meant for 3 adults and a child (crib), but if one adult doesn’t mind sleeping on a floor mattress, it works! Worth it for us!!

Idyllic spot by the sea

This sweet end-of-the-road spot was a perfect getaway for our family of three. The house is small but clean and cozy and there is plenty of outside space to spend time in as well, hammock included. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook and we appreciated the solo stove for roasting marshmallows. And the double kayak and paddle boards were such a plus. There is plenty do without going anywhere but it is also a great jumping off spot for many lovely sights, including the Farnsworth. Morgan was super responsive and had lots of great suggestions for places to go. We definitely plan to return!

Peaceful spot, right on the cove!

We had a great stay at Morgan's rental this past week. The outdoor space was perfect - plenty of places (hammock, Adirondack chairs, picnic table, bench, etc) to relax & unwind while looking into the cove. Lots for kids to do too, from games/puzzles inside to swings & a path to the water outside. The home is located on a very (very) quiet dirt road & we didn't hear another car the entire time we were there! The outdoor shower is a great place to rinse off after playing in the cove at low tide or going for a hike. The kitchen was well appointed with everything we needed to cook for a few nights (not too many restaurants nearby, which we knew ahead of time). They also had a drip coffee maker & a French press (important to know for those who need their morning coffee - like me). Great spot for watching birds (Osprey, sandpipers, terns, Great Blue Heron, etc) during the day & the stars at night, firepit & chopped firewood included. Close enough for half or full day trips to other towns in the area - we especially like Port Clyde & Damariscotta. Would love to come back!
